HEARING ON OIL RATES.
AlI-RaiI Charges Kept at Excessive
Figures to Aid Standard. 3

AlI-RaiI Charges Kept at Excessive
Figures to Aid Standard. +
Washington, May 23.-Freight rates
on petroleum and it's products in the
Central Western territory constituted
the subject of further hearings be-
fore the interstate commerce commits
sion. The rates involved were those
from Ohio and Pennsylvania points to
St. Paul, Minneapolis, Omaha, Sioux
City and Sioux Falls through Chicago.
The complaint does not hinge upon
preferential rates given by the rail
roads to the Standard Oil company,
for it is admitted that the rates to
all shippers are uniform; but the COM
plant is~that the tariffs now in force
are excessive and unreasonable. .-
Frank f. Fretter, secretary Of the
National Refining company of Cleve-
land, was the principal witness for the
compliments, the National Petroleum
association. He explained that the
Standard Oil company shipped oil by
barges from Whiting, Ind, to the Min
neapolis and Duluth territory, taking
advantage of the lower water rate to
undermine competition in that terri
tory The all-rail rate to that terri
tory, he said, was kept by the rail-
roads at an excessive figure in order
to enable the Standard Oil company
to destroy competition. He main
tanned that it was in the interest of
the Standard to have the high rail
rate because it did the great bulk of
its shipping by water.
Mr.. Fretter also complained Of the
rate from Ohio points to Omaha,
which, he said, was the sum of the
local rates through Chicago, or 40Ha
cents per hundred pounds.
