Practice of ~FIoating Cotton,

The lnteTState-cOmmerCe Commission yes
terday. in an opinion by Commissioner
Prouty, decided case against the Kansas
City. Memphis q Birmingham Railroad
Company and others. 1t mainly involved
the practice of floating cotton. The COM
mission finds that the essential transporta-
ton feature is carrying the cotton TO a
compress, receiving ii again in the COM
pressed state and transporting IT to desti-
nation at the through rate in force from
the point OF origin. The question was wheth-
er the shipment is to be considered through
and entitled to a through rate, or as local
and calling for application of charges i'm
effect 10 and from tie compress point The
commission holds. first, that the carrier
may, as part OF a contract for through ship
ment allow the cotton 10 be shipped off for
the purpose of grading and compression
but tina. the privilege enters into and be-
comes part of the service covered by the
rate and should be specified i'm the pub
lished tariffs. second. that the determine
alive feature OF a through shipment is the
contract. and If the cotton starts and pro-
ceeds upon a contract for through ship
ment, as is shown To be the fact in this
case. IL may be considered as a through
shipment and be given the benefit OF a
through rate. The Kansas City gTain-ra;e
case Is cited and distinguished in the de-
cision.
