Nec- p Tue Exccutive Didn't Think It essary to Repore to the Lo City Minister- ion of the Capital Building. ~Cond Corn Rates Explained TaxcoLy, Neb., March Special to 1z B Explaining the misunderstand~ ing regarding the freight rates on corn shipped from Nebraska to Chicago, Secres tary Gilchrist of the state board of transs ation says: “I'iere scems at this timo to be a great deal of misunderstanding as to the status of freight rates on corn from Nebraska to Chi and how they are mado up, and also what rates are charged from stations in this state to stations in the state, and how the compare with through rutes, “1ho rate from the Misseur: river to Che- cawo on corn 18 20 cents per 100 pounds, and tho rato from the most extreine wostern pomnt in Nebraska to Chicago is only b conts nigher. There are those who understand that our through rate on corn to Chicago is made up by adding the local rate from the point of shipment in Nebruska to tho Miss souri river rate, the local rate from the Missouri river to the Mississippi_river and the rate from tho Mississippi river to Chi cogo. This is a mistake. | will take as an illastration n point in Nebraska 100 miles west from the Missouri river., ine ku scredule rate for 100 miles s 11 conts per hundred weight; across the .tato of lowa, 12 2-5 cents por hundred weight; from the Mississippi river to Chi cago, § $1-100 cents per hundred weight: the sum of tho three locals 1s 52 71-100 conts per hundred weight; while the rate now charged ) 4 point 100" miles west of the Missouri ris 20lg cents per 100 pounds, being 100 eénts per 100 pounds less than the sum of the locals in the threo states named, “I'rom the foregoiug it is made plain that the through rate is only 67 5-10 per cent of the sum of the locals. I'he sum of tho loc: across lowa and 111 is 13 21 T1-100. I'ne throueh rute from points westof the Missouri river to Chicago 18 21'; conts, t g the through rate to Chicayo 21-100 of a cent ver 100 pounds less than the two locals from the Missouri river to Chicago. So if the local rate on corn in Nebraska should be entirvely wiped out from a poiut 100 miles west frou the Missouri river the through rate on cor to Chicago would still be the same “F'rom this showing the reduction of local rates in Nebraska would not uffect the present rate on corn shipped from this state to eastern markets, The following sbows the local rates on corn from stations in Ne braska to stations in this state: Kor 23 miles haul 5 cents per hundred pounds; for 50 miles haul, ¢ per huudred pounds; for 7 miles’ haul, 0 cents per hundred pounds; for 100 wiles haul, 13 cents per bundred pounds; for 200 miles haul, 16 cents per hundred pounas; for 300 miles haul, 18 cents per bundred pounds; for 400 miles tuul, 20 conts per hundred pounds. To muke it still plainer, to baul a ton of corn 25 wiles conts §1: 50 miles, §1.39; 75 miles, $1.50; 100 miles, §2.60; 200 miles, §.20; 500 miles, §.60; 400 miles, #4. *Tho rato per ton _per wilo on corn haul of 100 miles is 20 cents; 200 © les, 16 cents; 500 wiles, 13 cents; 400 miles, 10 cents. A car load of corn, weighing 40,000 pounds. shipped from a point 100 miles west of the Missouri river to Chicago at the preeent local rutes of the three states through w it would pass, namely, 33 71100 cents hundred pounds, will cost §140,84, Hy pre t through rate the cost on the car from the same point to Chicugo waking a difference botween the suw of the thrce local rates and the preseut through rate of 5484 GOVERNOR THAYEK TO KEV.
