LOUISVILLE, KY. July 14-Interstate
Commerce Commissioners CockrelI and
Clement today began a hearing into
charges made by East st. Louis shippers
that Louisville has an advantage In rates
over other grain handling points and that
rates to the southeast are manipulated.
The allegation that expense bills are
manipulated will be thoroughly investi-
gated ard the entire method of handling
grain in Louisville viii be learned as
nearly as possible. The railroads repre-
scented at the hearing are the Louisville &
Nashville, the Southern. the Illinois Cen

the question the senator said:
1T is too late now to punish those peo-
pie for the statute OF limitations prevents
the case going before the United States

At the afternoon session 6. @. Reynolds
an inspector for the Southeastern Missis

by Senator COekrell for an explanation o.
how he had happened to o X the irregular
or fraudulent expense bills which wer,
brought TO light during the Investigation O
