FREIGHT DISCRIMINATION.
A Decision OF Judge McCrary, OF
the United states Circuit Court,

DES MONIES, Ia, October 24th.-In
the Circuit Court of the United States
Judge McCrary rendered a decision
upon the question of the right of a
State to regulate Interstate commerce.
The case arose out Off suit against the
Illinois Central Railroad Company to
recover damages for Overcharges upon
freight shipped over the cOmpany's
road from points in Iowa to points in
Wisconsin, and originated under the
tariff law of 1874 now repealed. Judge
McCrary held that the act in question,
if applied to through shipments, rela.
ted to subject in its nature national,
and that if the powers of the States
to pass such an act were conceded it
would necessarily include the power
to discriminate against the commerce
of other States, for the reasons that
such C statute would be in violation of
the Federal Constitution, and it is not
within the power of one State upon
an Interstate line to fix rates to be
paid upon carriage within its territory,
for that would, i'll effect, give it power
to demand more than it's share OF rea-
sonable charge for the entire distance.
1t would be giving TO the statutes of
such State an extra territorial force.

doubts that Mr.. TiJden was elected
