It may have been impo: | e ih | He has been interviewed by a Call cor- | respondent-and s: | conditions make fair rates imperative.” | throws a strong side light upon the price | cetved many communications during the last | sections of “the State. | use throughout the State when equitable freight | proposition to have a rate of 2 cents per Board of Railroad Commissioners of Cal- | ifornia involving a proposed reduction of | rail freight rates in the State is about to be again used. This time it is to befog the minds of the oil producers of Califo: nia. Some time ago a complaint was filed | before the Railroad Commissioners in the ! name of John Le Blanc, who was repre- | sented by Attorney Frank H. Short, in | which it was set forth that the rates for | moving the crude ‘fuel oil of California were excessive. The rate betweez Bak- | ersfield and San Francisco is 42 cents per | barrel. The same rate holds good to points north of Sah Francisco. In addition there | are spur track and switching charges | that are mentioned and described in the complaint. All this ground has already | been gone over, and it is necessary onlys to allude to it. The essential point is that | the rate is practically 42 cents per barrel | all around in the State north of Te- | | hachapi. \ Since the complaint was filed the secre- tary of the Rallroad Commission of Texas | has forwarded to the Board of Rallroad | | Commisstoners of California an annual | report which contains what purports to be ! an officlal statement of the rates for the | transportation of fuel ofl in Texas that | are now in use. The statements in the re- | port are entirely misleading. The fact is | | that fuel ofl In Texas is moved from Beau- | | mont to El Paso, a distance of 916 miles, | ; for 19 cents per barrel of 600 pounds. . The | | ‘ \ | report received from the Texas commis sloners makes the rates for distance of | miles-and upward, according to whether | the ofl 1s carried over roads entirely under one management or over roads under dif- | ferent managements, from 72 cents to 90 { cents per barrel of 60 pounds, or 12 to 15 | cents per 100 pounds, the tabuiation being | made up in tne latter form. i Misleading Evidencs. | | On the showing of the cvidence con- | | tained in this report it can be made to ap- | | pear that the rate in California is less ! | than the rate in Texas, whereas the real | fact is that the rate in California, con- sidering distances, is six times the charge of Texas. From El Paso to Beaumont the | distance is over 90 miles as against 500 | miles' from Bakersfield to San Francisco. Moresver, the road in Texas is over sleep grades for a good part, while the road from Bakersfield to San Francisco is prac- ticaily all down hill. S 3 Whether the real facts will be made to pear in reference to the Texas rates when the Railrond Commissioners may finally come to the hearing Is an interest- | ble | for tHe Texas Rallroad Commissioners (o | convey to the California Commissiouers | the truth, but there was no difficulty in | ascertaining it when. The Call sent a query to El Paso. The answer came soon after the query was sent on its way. The California Railroad Commissioners have no official knowledge of the actual Texas rates: Plainly the transportation lines are interested in keepink the California people in the dark if possible. There is a sugpicion in some quarters that the printed report of the Texas Commission- s, so radically misleading at this time, | been steered up against the Califor- nia Commissioners by some intercsted party. The fact that some of the leading oil producers of the Kern River district do not know Mr. Le Blanc as a producer in that section may or may not have any interest. ¢ Short’s Opportunity. The production of the evidence concern- ing the real Texas rates may be in the discretion of Attorney Frank H. Short. i | | | | | in substance that he will bring up the T\ matter. “It seems to me,” Mr. Short is reported to have said, “‘that no good reason can exist why California oil producers should pay a higher rate for transportation of oil than the Texas producers over the same sys- tem, it being admitted that no more fa- vorable condition could exist for oil transfer than exists in California. The Even at the present low rates in Texas | there is dissatisfaction, which again charged for moving the fuel oil in Cali- fornfa. The correspondent of The Call at Austin, Texas, telegraphs as follows: AUSTIN, Texas, May 15.—The discovery and development of fuel ofl of the Beaumont fleld has forced upon the Texas Railroad Commission the necessity of fixing a tariff of freight rates on that product between Beaumont and other points in the State. The commission has re- few weeks from prospective consumers of this | ofl, asking that a_rate be established, and a hearing on the subject will be called by the commission in a few days to determine what rate shall be fixed. It is asserted that under existing freight charges the oil cannot be used at an economlical advantage over coal in some Many larze manufac- furers of Houston, Galveston and San Antonio are already using the Beaumont oil for fuel, however, and it will quickly come into general rates on the product are fixed. Railroad Commissioner Blackstock of Ventura County makes the statement that the people of Southern California, so far as he has ascertained, oppose the barrel made from Bakersfield to San Frangisco, which Is refiuested by Le Blanc in his complaint. e does not give any reason for this opposition. None has been, made public by the Southern Cali« fornia newspapers. First Submarine Cable. The first submarine cable was lald across the Englieh Channel about fifty years ago.
