TROUBLE IS EXPECTED.
Fight on Private Car Lines instituted
 by Commerce Commission.

Washington. Oct. 19.-What prom. ises to extend into legal and legisla- tive battle against private car lines was precipitated by the Interstate Commerce Commission by the course taken yesterday at the beginning of the hearing instituted to show the con- neetion between refrigerator car lines and railroads Counsel for the con- mission directed every effort to bring out the fact that the great railroad systems operating their own refriger- ator lines giyo to their shippers a much lower rate for refrigeration than is obtained with private car lines. In this the railroads, notably the Illinois Central and the Pennsylvania through their traffic managers, who wero On the stand the greater part of the day. apparently aided the commission. As result there were many sharp tits between the counsel for the commis- sion and the attorneys for the Armour car lines and other private companies. The action of the commission initiat- ing this prosecution has the double purpose of establishing it's jurisdic. tion over private car lines and cor recting the evils complained of. The chief contest is expected to develop on the point of jurisdiction.
