WILL PROBE OIL
TRANSPORTATION
THE COMMERCE COMMISSION BE-
GUN ITS WORK IN KANSAS
CITY TODAY.

Special to the Herald.
Kansas City. Mo-, March 1O.-The
investigation begun here today by the
Interstate Commerce Commission In
to the combinations and understand
ings between railroads and coal and
oil companies is regarded as the most
far-reaching undertaking of its kind
ever attempted The present inves-
tigation has to do with the rates and
practices of the railroad carriers en-
gagged in transporting oil from Kansas
City and Indian Territory to inter
state destinations. The investigation
is based upon petition of the Kansas
Oil Producers Association. This pc
tition charges:
That the rates on petroleum and It's
products from producing sections in
Kansas and Indian Territory to Mis-
souri,, Iowa and other interstate des-
tinations are unjust and prejudicial.
That the state established in 1905
a schedule of rates for the transpor-
tation of crude oil and the products
thereof, which has operated to create
markets for the sale of such traffic
within its state, and that such rates
are far below the grossly excessive
rates charged by the railroads 10
points in other states, near the boun-
dairy between them and Kansas.
That the rates upon petroleum
shipped as interstate traffic from
points in Kansas and the Indian Ter
ritory operate to restrict and prevent
traffic between numerous points, and
show that the railroads, as the result
of some understanding between them
and the Standard Oil Company. or
companies allied with it. have been
fostering a monopoly in the control of
the oil traffic to the wrongful pretu-
dice of the complainants and other
competitors of the. Standard.
That the railroads also discriminate
against the complainants in favor of
the Standard Oil and its allied COM
panies in the provision of tank cars
and in storage facilities at various
points of destination, and in the re-
turn of tank cars and empty barrels
to points of production.
The following named carriers have
been summoned to appear for inves-
tigation: Atchison, Topeka and Santa
Fe Railway Co., Missouri Pacific Rail
way Co.. Missouri. Kansas & Texas
Railway Co., st. Louis and San Fran
cisco Railroad Co., Chicago, Rock ISL

Frank S. Monet, former attorney
general of Ohio, conducts the inves-
tigation as the representative of the
independent oil producers of Kansas
and Indian Territory, who are the
compliments in the case. During his
term of service as attorney general of
the Buckeye state Mr.. Monet ac-
quaired national reputation as an
expert in discovering questionable |
business and political situations.
