garding freight rates on live stock and
live stock products from the Missouri
river to Chicago. In answer ta a
question as to how the charges were
made President Stickney replied:
In fixing the rate on dressed meat
we don't have very much to say. The
packer generally makes the rate. He
comes to you and always makes you
feel that he is your friend. Then he
asks you how much you charge for
certain shipments of dressed meats.
The published tariff may be % cents
per 100, but he will not pay that. You
say to him: TIL carry your meat for
Is cents He says: oh, no you won't.
! won't pay that Then you say
We'll, what will you pay for it?' He
then replies: I can get 1t hauled for
16 cents. So you haul 1t for JIG cents
per 100. He generally tells you that
II you want the business you must
haul the meat for the price he names 2
President Stickney denied that his
road had paid any claims for damages
