The State Railroad Commissioners
Hold a Meeting
To Consider the Complaint Of Shippers at
Stockton.
An Order Adopted Declaring That
the Rates Now Existing Be-
tween Stockton and Port Costa
Are Just, Fair and Reasonable.

SAN FRANCISCO, June Z. = The
State Board of Railroad Commissioners
to-day decided not to change the pres
ent differential in grain rates between
Stockton and Port Costa. An order
to this effect was adopted by a unani-
nous vote. 1t declares that the board
being fully advised in the premises does
find and determine that the differen-
tial on grain rates now existing be-
tween the city of Stockton and Port
Costa are just, fair and reasonable,
and that no cause nor reason exists
which will justify a modification there
of. Wherefore, by reason of the
premises and pursuant to the findings
aforesaid, it is ordered and adjudged
that said differential shall not be modi-
fed or decreased until the further or
der of this board
The Commissioners took no action IN
the grain rate case. Attorney General
Ford, who had been asked to advise
the board on the question of whether
or not the reduced grain rate schedule
enacted by the last board is still in
force. was not ON hand with his an
swer to the boards queries, and the
matter went over for further consider
alton.
The only reference made to the grain
rate case was when Commissioner
Blackstock submitted a resolution dis
pensing with the services of all special
counsel for the board, and requesting
the Attorney General to take exclusive
charge and management of all legal
questions and proceedings in which the
board is interested. Action on this res
olution was postponed.
Commissioner Edison reported in ia
vor of granting the petition of the
Crescent City and Smith River Rail-
way Company for an increase of the
fare between those points from 90
cents to 10 cents. On motion, it was
ordered that permission be given 10
make the increase.
The board adjourned to meet to-
morrow at 2 o'clock, by which time the
Attorney General is expected to be
ready to advise the board on the status
of the reduced grain rate schedule.
1t is understood that Attorney Cen
eral Ford will ask Judge Morrow in
the United States Circuit Court on Fri
day to decide whether the grain rate
schedule reducing freights by per
cent as adopted by the late Railroad
Commission is still of binding force.
The question will come up on mo-
ton to settle the liability for costs,
which may be- fixed either on the State
or the railroad company, and the de-
cision is expected to determine which
of the parties to the suit may be said
to have been successful in it's conten-
ton.
