Complain Of Unjust Rates.

WASHINGTON, Dec. "a. - A com.
plant directed against railways op.
Grating west from Chicago and charg.
ing unreasonable and discriminatory
rates on rubber tires for bicycles and
vehicles has been filed with the inter-
state commerce commission by the
Flske Rubber company Of Giuseppe,
Mass. This complaint is one of seven
distinct charges and is based on the
ground that the charges on rubber
tires in the territory through which
the defends ant companies operate is
excessive.
The excessive charges are due
chiefly to classification. 10 the south.
ern territory rubber tires are carried
as first cluss material, while in the
territory IN which the defendant com.
panies operate, q rate of two and one
half times the rate of first class ma.
terial is charged, according as to
whether the tires are inf ated or de.
fla,ed. This rate makes the charge
on less than carload lots in the ter
ritory operated by the defendant rail-
road companies in excess OF the ex-
press charges to the same points.
