The strikers were perfectly orderly yes

part, deserted. Once or twice the local po-

These showed no disposition to resist and

Not TO IndividuaIa,

The privilege granted to the Chicago
Great Western by the Interstate Commerce
commission was made with the distinct
understanding that the allowance must be
made to the elevator performing the eleva-
ton service and not to individual ship
pers, who do not own or operate elevators.
II was also intimated by the commission
that similar permission would be granted
to other carriers at Missouri river points
upon application TO the commission.
The elevation reduction OF three-fourths
OF cent per hundred pounds which will
be given by the Chicago Great Western
and Wabash roads applies on all grain
shipped out TO all points on the lines OF
those railroads, provided the revenue
amounts to more than switching charges.
This nullifes the effect Of the rate as far
as shipments OF grain from Council Bluffs
to Omaha are concerned, as the elevation
allowances on such shipments do not equal
the switching charges and the rate is
therefore, imperative in this respect.
The decision OF the commission relative
to the Peavey case gave the Union Pacific
company the concession Of granting an
elevation allowance on grain receipts
while the elevation allowance to the Chi
cago Great Western and Wabash is opera,
tive ON grain shipped out.
Omaha daily bee., 1907-05-04

the commission Secretary Mcvann Of the
Omaha Grain exchange says:
Naturally this action on the part of the
Great Western and Wabash roads will be
followed by other roads which are in COM
petition with them for business on the Mis-
souri, river. The action of the Great West
ern In allowing on all business Of the road
which pays the road will be particularly
acceptable TO the elevator interests, as they
can get the reduction on shipments to mills
in Iowa and elsewhere"
