New YORK, January 11th.--In their Sec
ond annual report, the Interstate Commerce
Commissioners say that, outside of roads
affected by ocean competition between the
Atlantic and Pacific, the long and short
haul clause has been fairly well obeyed.
The Commission insists that ii has no evil
dence. in spite of railroad protests, that
the law has been otherwise than beneficial
to the roads. The abolishing of unjust dis
elimination, no matter how it effected
the earnings, was more for common justice
and public morality. The losses of 1883
were not due to the Act One cause was
the strike. New and parallel lines mate
rally injured the net revenues, and the
rate was very serious. They, however,
were not the result of the Act Amend
ments to the law dealing with unchanged
dividends, cut rates and commissions are
proposed.
