Many Complaints.


Remarkable as It may seem, there Is
not railroad IN the South Just now
that is not In some way entangled In
charges pending before the Interstate
Commerce Commission. The principal
cause OF complaint seems to be that the
roads are charging rates that are too
high, or that the differentiaIs are not
what they should be. The charges. too
have all been made within a few weeks
the most Important being those filed by
the peach growers association a few
weeks ago. The peach growers do not
seem to understand why they should
have to pay more to ship one OF their
crates of fruit to New York than a man
living in California. which does seem
queer. when one stops 10 think about il
The railroad has filed its answer to this
charge, asserting that 1t is In competi-
ton with steamships from California.
and that for this reason II is APPLYING
the long and short haul clause. The
next to complain were the lumber deal
ers. who assert that prohIbltive rates
are charged TO certain localities in the
west Complaints have been made about
coal rates, about general freight rates.
about rates on rails. and apparently
about everything on the face of the
earth. In all. no less than $40 600 600
annually are involved. That some Of the
compliments may be just, goes with
OUT saying, but that all OF them are, is
ridiculous. - -
