HAY SHIPMENTS RATE.
Decision Rendered by the Interstate
 Commerce Cornmissf0n.

Commerce COmmfsstOn.
 Washington, Aug. 2s.-The Interstate Commerce Commission teddy renedered a decision in the case of T. M. Kehoe and Company of Terre Haute, Ind, against the Evansville and Terre Haute Railroad Company, and others in the matter of rates on the shipment Of hay. The Evansville and Terre Haute Rail- road refused to apply proportion on shipments billed to Evansville in care of southern line for points beyond. having discontined tariff therefor which was effective from November 10. 1903, to July 1s, 1904. The rate from is the same whether shipped locally or through Evansville The Commission held that it is unreasonable and unjust for the Evansville and Terre Haute road to insist on the billing of these shipments to a specified destination In order to secure application of the low. CT proportional rate. while it declines 10 assume responsibility for said billing and does not post in its stations the tariffs from which the shipper can him. self ascertain the rate at which the shipment should be billed. and In that way the proportional rate Is kept in force. It Is reasonable and just that these shipments shall be billed to Ev- ansyilie in care of the road leading southerly therefrom, as was done in 1903 and 1904. The complainants are allowed reparation on certain ship ments.
 The Commission also decided four cases of the complaints against the Charlotte and Western Carolina Com pany. the Atlantic Coast Line Railway. the Seaboard Air Line Railroad. and the Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Company, the decision declaring that the defendants established charge or VI per day for car denlurrage is just and reasonable.
