BARS COAL ROADS
FROM COAL SALES
Supreme Court Decision Is Of
Moment to Big Coal
Carriers.

Washington, Feb: 21.--The sweeping
court in the case of coal-selling by the
Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad company
becomes more important as it is studied
and reviewed by legal experts, 1t is
that it will hereafter prevent railroads
from operating coal mines, if it does !
not actually prevent them from own
ing such property.
It is conceded that the views ex-
pressed by Justice. White will prevent
tion with private shippers and naming
lower freight rate for their own
product. @ff
has not yet fully determined the ex-
tent to which Justice Whites decision
have agreed on the one point that rail
roads cannot make discriminatory rate
in favor Of their own coal. They have
not reached conclusion as to whether,
under the decision, they can. begin
prosecutions against the railroads con,
trolling the output of anthracite coal
/ in Pennsylvania.
Can Reach Coal Trust.
! There is an inclination to the belief
| that such precedent is established
and that under it all combinations gov
erning the coalfelds can be successfully
prosecuted, but no final conclusion has
i been reached. .
If the opinion of the supreme court
had stopped with the point at issue,
and held that "a railroad cannot make
a freight rate In favor. OF It's own
i product, the position of coaEownlng
roads would have continued 4hI compare
ther and enunciated the general princi-
pie that when a railroad pays itself
the published tariff: on cemmoditie on
! which it both a dealer and commons
carrier, it violates the spirit of the
1887. s.:s. tas. -
This is construed as equivalent to de-
claring that a railroad cannot trans
port commodities which it owns, or
which comes from mines under it's own
ership. Under this construction, all the
Pennsylvania anthracite roads would
be compelled to abandon, the business
of mining and selling coal -,
The only comfort obtained by rail-
road attorneys in the decision OF Justice
White is the declaration that the. point
of ownership was not involved IN the
case under consideration: and a subse,
quent opinion on the precise point might
be entirely different. 3aI:" ~ : :. -. 2.
Bookkeeping as Evasion.
This point is being given careful con
sideration by members of the Interstate
commerce commission. They are seek
ing to determine, before bringing q q
handling both anthracite and bitum UNI
nous coal, whether the decision can be
evaded by bookkeeping. It might De
/ possible by taking money out of one
pocket and putting it into another
q pocket to find some plan for avoiding
l suitability under the courts findings.
If bookkeeping cannot save the rail
= roads, it is held to- be certain that the
present system Of :.transactin1gg, business 7!
must be changed At, once. The policy
of buying coal a. the mines or stalking
