Memphis daily appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1847-1886, 1869-09-17


Of Trade Of Louisville to investigate into
the action of the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad, with reference to the charges Of
discrimination made against that road
and in favor Of Cincinnati and other
points have made a report, which winds
up as follows:
Your committee believe hat Louisville
does not receive the full beneft to which
she is entitled by her geographical po-
sitiOn; but, in consideration OF the arbt-
trBry rule enforced by Southern connect
ing roads and the competition by river
from the cities Of ST. Louis and Cincin-
natl, with which the Louisville and Nash
Vile Railroad has to contend, the com
mittee does not believe il in the power OF
the road at present to secure to the trade
of tbs city any greater advantages than 1t
nov has,
The policy Of the road in regard to
freight does not seem to haYe changed
under either of the arrangements since
the adoption OF the resolutions Of FehFJl-
airy, 1900. During this entire period .
persistent effort has been made 10 regu-
late the rates of freight in conformity
with said resolutions.
