The MANIPULATION OF GRAIN RATE
DISCRIMINATION IN FAVOR OF BALTIMORE
FIRM CHARGED.


ST. Louis. jan. 16.-A dispatch from omaha. Ncb.,
says The exposure OF the manipulation Of grain
rates between Omaha and baltimore started the r1moy
that the through tariff had been reduced three cents
per 100 pounds and the agents OF the freight lines
have had the ungnteul task of disspatng the hopes
Of local shippers and trying to explain how they
were placed at disadvantage by the Ohio ana Mis-
sisslpp
IL know that the discrimination IS made on ship
ments by the way Of Beardstown H. said one Of
the freight men, but man in our business can't
always give away all that lie knows The Burllns-
ton system is undoubtedly acting the square. and
manipulation is due to its Eastern connection Neither
the ohio and Mississippi the Baltimore and Ohio
is cutting the rate openly. but favorte Baltimore
firm is getting a rebate Just the same. It's BUYERS
are thereby enabled to bid for corn BY cents
per tshel than any other omaha grain man can AFFORD
to pay This matter was brought TO The attention Of
Commissioner Blanchard time ago. but the
difficulty is 10 get evidence that Will convict The
Offending road. Mr. Blanchard Instructed his IN
spectors TO be the alert, but the weighing and the
billing all right, and the manipulation is u smooth
