A DECISION RENDERED

Final Question Reserved Unit proof
of Damages Sustained Is Made
by Cattle shippers.

Washington. February 10.--Tho Interstate
commerce commission today in an opinion
by Commissioner Prouty announced Its de-
eision In the case OF the Cattle Raisers' asso-
citation of Texas against the Fort Worth and
Denver City Railroad. company and others.
involving The legality of the charge OF Sc per
car imposed rs terminal charge at Chicago.
on delivering live stock at the Union Stock
Yards, In that city. The Union Stock Yards
and Transit company is not. under the decis-
ION, engaged as a carrier of live stock within
the meaning of the act TO regulate commerce
and therefore is not subject to regulation in
this case, Live stock carried by these rail-
road companies through different States for
delivery to the Union Stock Yards in Chicago
is decided to be Interstate commerce until
delivered at such yards.
The terminal charge is dealt with by tho
commission irrespective of the transportation
charge to Chicago.
The commission decides that the carriers
might reimburse themselves for the trackage
charge imposed by the Union Stock Yards
and Transit company, but that they ought not
to exact any compensation for their service,
which they previously rendered gratuitously,
ard that the imposition OF more than 81 per
car as such terminal charge on live stock
was in violation of section 1 of the act to
regulate commerce.
The case is continued for proof of damages
by members of the complaining Cattle Rasers
association. all questions as to PREPARATION
being reserved until such proof is made.
