Brooks President of the Michigan Central Road Mr..
Hubby President of the Cleveland, Columbus and
Cincinnati Road, Dir. Brady, President of the Toledo
and Wabash Road, Mr.. Phillips, President of the Boz
ton and Worcester Road, Mr. SpaldDg, the large for
warder of New-York and several other officers of
important lines Of railroad, were examined. The tes-
tmony fully established the fact that discrimination
between way and through freight Is unavoidable, in
consequence Of the greater cost OF transporting way
than through freight. Experienced railroad men
proved what these greater expenses were, and that
thew could not be prevented any road, however
MANAGED They also proved that the Winter rates
were necessarily increased, in consequence of the
greater cot of running trains in Winter than in Sum.
mer and testified that such increase on New-Yor
railroads, taking series Of years. had been unusually
moderate.
Evidence was adduced, and substantiated by the
production Of the several TARIFF that the rates Of way
freight on the New-York Central Railroad lower
than the local rates corresponding distances any
of the principal lines Of railroad III the country. Il
was also shown by all wtnesses that it would DO
utterly impossible Tor any railroad under pro-rata
la to do both way and through business, and that
under such system the through business must be
abandoned; that if the New-York roads were COM
Ielled 10 ke fixed tariff which could not be changed
in less than thirty days, the rival lines would cut
sufficiently under 10 take the entire businesa This
would necessarily divert all the business from tho
