WATERFALL ROUTES UNDER THE LAW:


UNOFFICIAL ATTITUDE or THE INTERSTATE
COMMISSIONERS ON LAKE QUITTING"
Tho approach Of free navigation on the lakes has
sxdted interest among railroad men with regard 70
the probable effect on freight rates from the West 70
the, East Water competition usually compels No
ducion in ali-ran tariffs and that s expected. One
OF ac great evils Of tho past however, has been the
manipulation OF lake rates by roads which controlled
steaer lines 90 that there chance OF honoraoie
coubetton by the AlLral routes with the routes
msds up Of water carriage 30 Buffalo and ra ans
por,ton for the rest Of tho distance TO The Atlantic
sesbsard, whether the objective point YVES Boston,
NewSork or PhiiadeiphiG Not only have the all
rail putes however, been confronted With llegitmate
comIsuuon OF this sort, but many Of the lake com
panic have reSkiessly cut rates secretly and used nj
timex dovces Of various sorts for gaining advantage
over zach other All Of these successful devices haVo
redouhdcd 10 tho benefit Of particular rail hreS run
ming est IRON Buffalo and other lake ports
The point has been raised as TO whether The iake
routes were under tho jurisdiction Of The Interstate
Commerce law 90 that they could be prevented from
discrimination In the matter Of tariffs. no formal
appeal has been made for q ruling by the Federal
Commission, but II is understood that the NOM
bers have Informally expressed themselves OF the de-
cIaed opinion that the National law applies to all
through routes made mp BY combination Of water and
rail- Aes whether the goods carried under through
tariff arrangements or contracts, are subject 20
serartte charges by tho Lake and BY the rail roat9
by wsIch they reach their points Of final delivery
Il "a hoped that the knowledge Of the unofficial att
tude N The Federal nicers on this question VIII hehd
10 create conservatism IN the making OF Through wafer
Of t6Ise rates win compel formal appeal % tile
