Ripley Makes Statement.

President E. p. Ripley of the Atchi-
son, Topeka G Santa Fe railway.
made the following sta. emeat before
the interstate IN commission
in Chicago:
so many and such distorted state
ments have been published as to the
recent hearing before two members
of the interstate commerce commits
sion wherein the Santa Fee company
charged with granting secret re-
bates to the Colorado Fuel & Iron
company that it seems proper that l
should make a statement of the facts,
SO the case may not be prejudiced be-
fore the public as it seems to have
beer by ore member at least of the
interstate commerce commission.
"The Atchison, Topeka & Santa
Fe has not in this case been guilty OF
violating the spirit and intent OF the
interstate commerce law. 7 do not
think it has ever been guilty OF n
technical violation, though that is q
matter for ajudication by legal
minds.
There is no provision of the law
which requires that divisions OF
through rates with other railroads
shall be filed with the interstate com
merce commission, nor Is 1t custom
ary so to do There is no such pro-
vision. nor has the commission ever
claimed that the sum we accept as our
proportion of the through rate from
the Colorado coal fields TO points on
tho FL Paso & Southwestern road
should be the same as our rate to the
junction with that road, nor Is there
any reason, legal. commercial or eithl-
cal. why these rates should be the
same. Indeed. the courts have held
that there may well he a difference,
The arrangement which is under dis
+ cjlSSi0n was Hlhue With tHS hi i""o
&. Southwestern Railway company for
its own benefit and use, and In no
manner. Disseminated against any
individual, firm or corporation in the
coal business. Neither this company
nor any of its officers are in any
manner interested financially Or 9th
erwise in the Colorado Fuel & Iron
! Company or its operations or in any
other coal company. and this state,
ment includes Mr.. Morton, who Is
not now an officer of the company,

,ment was made. We have broken no
law and have nothing to apologize
