B. Hunter of the Interstate Com- merce Commission. The end of the hearing was mark- ¢d by a sharp .clash between attor- neys for the carriers and of the newspapers, when the former asked for postponement so that they. might have time to study evidence submit- ted by the newspapers, in certain rates. February the In commodities, discriminatory presentation of briefs. 1916 at a hearing before the conimission the carriers stated that | they were not prepured to defend the adjustment of rates on news- print paper to Baltimore, Washing- ton and Richmond.
