The Interstate Commerce Commits
sion has just handled the first case
in which it assumes the perogative
granted it by the new rate law Of con.
trolling the express companies. Ex-
press charges in the United States
are of the most onerous exactions
under which the people suffer. Here
tofore there has been no way Of reach
ing them legally, for they were not
affected by any law and could charge
what they pleased. The present
case is not far reaching, II deals only
with the case of cut flowers sent
from the surrounding country to New
York City. The express company
without warning and without improv-
ing the service doubled the tariff.
When brought TO book for their &C.
ton, their defense was remarkable,
They explained that under their con-
tract with the railroads, they had to
pay the railroad company As per cent
of their gross receipts. They wanted
more for the flower service than they
had been getting, but they had TO
raise the tariff more than they other
wise would because SO much Of the
increase went to the railroads. II is
to be noted with some satisfaction
that they were compelled to prompt.
ly put the tariff back at what It was
before the raise.
