20 the allegation OF the defendant that Z
the Interstate Commerce Act does not
apply 10 expert rates, which question is
involved and that this district court lacks
Jurisdiction.
These exceptions in the cases OF Thomas
and Taggart are based principally upon
the assertion that II was not shown that

alleged conspiracy entered into with
George A. Barton, the Kansas city shoe
merchant 10 violate the Elkins' act by
