C. Turns Down Request of Western Railroads Washington, Nov. 11.—Applications | of the western railroads for a reopen- ing of the advance freight rate case were denied yesterday by the inter- state commerce commission. At the same time the commission of its own initiative ordered an inves- tigation of rates, rules and practices of western railroads in relation to the transportation of livestock, fresh meats and packing house products. These commodities were among those on which the roads sought to have rates increased. NoO reason was as- signed for the refusal to reopen the case. Cause of Decision. It is understood, however, that the decision was due to the fact that in- creases proposed by the same roads on other commodities have not been acted upon, and the fact thag an in- vestigation is to be undert&(en of livestock rates. The petition was filed several weeks ago, but final action on it was deferred until all members of the commission were present. $10,000,000 Revenues a Year, The western roads in their original case asked for increases which they said would mean added revenues of about $10,000,000 a year, but the com- mission granted only such increasesas , it calculated would add about $1,500,- 000 per year. In the petition for a re-hearing the principle reason giv- en was that the commission had failed to consider the need of addi- tional revenue. A re-opening and re- hearing was asked in respect to the ' rates on livestock, fresh meats, pack- ing house produgts grain products. Briefs and arguments before commission indicate that the and grain and the added i revenues through the increases asked on fresh meats, packing house prod- ucts and livestock would have been about $3,000,000. The investigation now undertaken may result in giving the carriers at least a portion of that sum, DEATHS AND FUNERALS. Mrs. Mary Drenzek.
