MEMORANDA


MEMORANDA
The Chicago Board of Trade Committee are pushing
their Investigations relative to determinations of rail
roads against that city with vigor. On the 10th inst
they elected some important testimony, OF which the
following is exampleA large shipper stated 'that
he is shipping large amount of grain from all the in
terror points. Heretofore nearly all his shipments
made to Chicago, but now he shipping to the
East via the Southwestern lines because he saved
money by SO doing From Springfield, Ill, he could
ship at the rate from Chicago and thereby
freight rate from that point 10 this city he could ship
grain from any point the Gilman, Clinton and
Springfield and other interior roads to the Detroit
junction of the Grand Trunk Railroad via Cincinnati
cents per 100 pounds less than Chicago though
the route is 200 miles longer Mr. Tucker, of the
Illinois Central, had however, made proposition
few days ago to take his grain via Chicago at the
rate, and bear the loss himself He had shipped lately
grain Europe via the Pttsburg, Cincinnati and St.
Louis Railroad at cut rates"
They also brought the information that all the pool
lines making the rates from Joliet as from
Chicago and the pro rata OF the roads that point
to this the amount the Eastern roads were taking
less from Joliet than from this city The pool lines
also allow the difference it costs to bring grain from
Milwaukee, Madison and other Wisconsin points
The public cautioned against purchasing the fol-
lowing stolen Missouri Pacific first mortgage bonds OF
81 900 each, numbering from 1927 l, 244 inclusive
