Steamship Company, alleging the formation of what
IS known the Baltic pool for the control and
Transportation Of the export trade of tho United

Argument the demurrer was heard by the
commission to-day, ex-senator John C. Spooner.
Judge G. w. Choate and Harrington Putnam aP-
pearing for the defendants and Ward w. Pierson
Tor the complainant. 1t was maintained by the dt-
fendants counsel that the defendant companies are
not common carriers under the Interstate Com
merce act and that the complainant does not charge
that anything has been done omitted to be done
that is in contravention of the act
In his argument Judge Choate urged that the
line of demarcation of the authority OF the COM
mission was drawn at the seabOard and that al!
reasons for the application of the provisions OF
the act failed of effect when attempted to be ap-
rliei to ocean carriers. FIc maintained that the
law clearly applied 10 inland transportation ana
that the case ought 10 be dismissed for want VI
jurisdiction.
For the complainant Mr. Pierson maintained that
the defendants had admitted in their demurrer
the allegations of the compaint-the forInauon OF
the Baltic pool and the giving of rebates anu
preferential tariffs. He coHended that the export
trade from interior points of the United States
was carried under a common control manage
rnent or arrangement. through bllis OF ladlils'
PREPAID from points in the United States to points
of destination in Europe he asserted tlat uiiuei
tf,e law the commission clearly had authority TO
SUPERVISE those rates and to prevent any discrhi-
nation or injustice against any other company not
n party to the pool Arrangement Mr.. flersoh
maintained that the commission had authority 10
os+otI,eb and maintain through rates from points
in the United States 10 posts in Europe, ana heio
that foreign steamship lines could not DO those
things in this country and that American cor
porations prohibited by law from ooihs So
In closing the argument ex-senator Spooner SAID
+bat II was not alleged that any inland carrier
naa violated the law, but that the complaint was
dtroc,ed against ocean carriers not subject TO the
interstate commerce act He declared that ocean
carriers were not intended by Congress to be in
