From the Railway World, January 3, 1908 Chicago and Eastern Tilinots do not run into Chicago, ‘They terminate at Delton, from which polut entrance in made over the Belt Line, Whiting, where the ol! freight originates, te not oo the lines of the Chicago and Kastern Tilinols, which receives its Whiting freight from the Relt Line at Delton. The former practice, now discontinned, in filing tariffe was to make them read from @ point on the line of the filing road, and it was also keneral to state on the same sheet, that the tariff would apply to other points, @ g. Whiting. The Chicago and Kastera Uinols followed this practise in filing ite rate from Dolton, and making a note on the sheet that it applied to Whiting. This was ip 1895 when this method of filing tariffs was in compuon use. Now let us see in what. way the Intending shipper of ol! could be misled and deceived by the fact that the Chicago and Eastern Ilinots had not filed @ rate reading from Whiting. Commissioner Smith contends that “conceal ment is the only motive for such a ciroultons arrangement,” |, ¢. that this method of filing the rate was intended to mislead intending com petitors of the Standard Ol! Company. Suppose such & prospective oll refiner had applied to the interstate commerce commission for the rate from Chicago to East St. Louis over the Chi cago and Eastern Hiinota, he would bave been informed that the only rate filed with the com mission by this company was 6% cents from Dolton, and he would have been ferther in formed, if indeed he did not know thin already ‘gat this rate applied throughout Chieago ter ritory, So that whether he wished to locate his plant at Whiting, or anywhere else about Chicago, utler rangement of long stand. ing, and which iew to all the Industrial towns in the neighbortioed of Chicago, he could have his freight deljvered over the Belt Line to the Chicago and “Baatern Hlinols at Dolton and transported to Hast St. Louis at a rate of 6% cents.. Where thew in the concealment which the commissioner of corporations makes Any rates-from Dolton on the Rastern Uknois or Chappell on the Alton, or Harvey on the fitnolt Central, or Blue Island on the Rock Island, applies throughout Chicago territory to shipmepts, from Whiting, as to shipments from any/other point in‘ the district So far from the Kastera, Ulinois filing its rate from.

The a on is whether this rate constituted a di crimination as against other shippers of oft and he also makes much of the failure of Pre ident Moffett to produce before the grand jury evidence of the akoged ideme acts of which the JANUARY WERT TWIN TO TACKLE STANLEY KETCHELL BAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 21.—The tweight whe has battered tuneay an aspiring lopavicher about Despairing of getting « crack at the 21, 1908 oe EAP TAP LABIA Ty with; Jack Pa 0 RACES. ive. shir The Store That Serves You Best—Gar Bu hanan LOS ANGELES Co. +. to Buchanan Co.

Consid- ertng the fact that these shippers included the packers and elevator men of Chicago, the ac tion of the grand jury in calling upon Pres dent Moffett to furnish evidence of thelr wrong doing may bo interpreted a demand fr an elaboration of the obvious; but the fact that a rate-book containing these freight rates for other shippers was offered in evider the tris! aed ruled out by Judge Lan kept out of sight. President Moffett would not | of course, sccept the invitation of the grand jury, although he might have been pardoned if) he had referred them to various official Inves-| tigations by the interstate commerce commis m and other departments of the gover at i We come back, therefore, to the concluston | of the whole matter, which is that the Stand-) ard Off Company of Indiana was fined aa! amount equal to seven or eight times the value of its entire property, because its traffic de partment did not verify the statement of the Alton rate clerk, that the stxcent commodity rate on ofl hed been properly filed with the to terstate commerce commission.
