INJUNCTION AGAINST
COAL-CARRYING ROADS

and Hartford railroad companies, re-
straining them from carrying freight at
less than published rates
The question involved is as to whether
a railroad can purchase coal or any
other article of traffic, carry ii over its
line, and deliver it to a customer at less
than the combined aggregate Of the
market price and the published freight
charges. The railroads contend that this
Is entirely within their option. The
Government holds that this constitutes
violation of the Interstate commercs
act.
Nine years ago the Chesapeake and
Ohio railroad contracted with the New
York New Haven and Hartford to sell
2,00o00o tons of coal. delivered at New
Haven, for $50 a ton The published
freight rate was then SIS per ton, and
the buying price at the mines 81 a ton
1t was thus apparent the Chesapeake
and Ohio secured the coal and carried
| 1t for less than the combined price and
published rate.
Department of Justice officials have
made the astonishing discovery that J.
| Pierpont Morgan guaranteed that the
Chesapeake and Ohio would perform its
contract 1t is not intended at present
to proceed against Mr. Morgan, al
