Several Important Controversies Await Forthcoming Decision. A number of important cases are pending before the interstate commerce commis- sion on which decisions are likely to soon be made. The Arkansas and Kansas grain rate cases, which grew out of a complaint of minor importance, have developed until many questions and various lines in the west are now involved. The Kansas board of railway commissioners are among the complainants, and the subject of rates from Missouri river points and milling in transit are affected. The export rate cases are still being investigated by the commission. Different roads are complained against, it being asserted that they have issued from time to time tariffs on exports to Liver- pool and other points abroad in which the transatlantic share of the rate was less than the rates to the seaboard. One of the most Important cases before the commi: sion is the complaint made by the New York produce exchange against trunk lines to the seaboard, charging discrimination against New York city in favor of Boston. Philadelphia,Baltimore and Newport News. A similar question was decided a quarter of @ century ago by a commission of arbitra- tion consisting of Judge Cooley, Senator Thurman and Elihu B. Washbu From the southern Atlantic comes a case before the comm complaint of the Savannah Fr ciation, in which it is charged that the fertilizer rates from Charleston to points in Georgia, Alabama and Florida discrimi- nate against Savannah. It is that the roads make the same rate from Charleston as from Savannah over a longer haul and where the haul is made ov several different lines, while the haul from Savannah is made over only one or two roads.
