COMMISSION
after THE
Big TRUSTS

Washington May 5.-All the members OF
the Interstate Commerce commission
wtff-ieave Washington for Chicago on
Saturday to conduct an investigation In
To the operations OF the private car lines
OF the Steel. the Harvester, the Beef and
other ordinations OF this kind. as we'll
as into the relations OF the trunk lines
and the question OF terminal charges.
Prosecutions Of many OF these gigantic
trusts and several railroads are expected
as the outcome OF this investigation.
which will be conducted not only with
view 20 reaching some satisfactory solu-
ton OF the question. but TO get informa-
tlon and evidence with which TO enable
the commission TO inaugurate prosecu-
tons OF the private car lines for accept
ing rebates, and tho trunk railroad lines
for granting them.
II is claimed that much damaging evil
dence is already IN the hands of tho COM
mission on which TO base prosecutions.
but before turning the matter over To the
dcpa rtment OF tsticc for action the COM
mission desired 10 make a further In
ouiry.
The members OF the commission express
confidence that strong cases have been
made cunt against the alleged offenders.
and the investigation which will begin
Monday Is not for the purpose of bolster
ing up the case OF the commission, but TO
give those who have violated the law an
opportunity 20 remedy the evils complain
ed Of and possibly save themselves from
prosecution.
The commissioners are OF the opinion
that the railroads should own their own
refrieeration cars "a under the present
system there has grown up a monopoly IN
tie handling OF fruit
Another question 10 be investigated will
be the exclusion contracts entered into
between the private car lines and the
trunk lines railroads.
II has been held by the Interstate
commerce commission that these private
car lines are common C~'riers, and that
they should be required - publish their
schedule OF rates.
But the commission has declared offi-
cTaIIy that they charge any rate they
please. and In doing so have violated the
Eikins Anti Rebate law. and have made
therlselves liable 10 heavy penalties.
