Belllngham, Wash, March a.
Alleging that the Great Northern
Railroad Company has made over
charges on shipments of lumber and
shingles to the aggregate amount OF
.S3S13. the Whatcom Falls Mil
Company has begun an action In the
superior co1rt TO recover. this sum.
and. incidentally. 60 stop practice
which, Il is claimed, has been going
on for years, and which Is still CON
tlnued The result OF the action will
BE- for-reaching on account of the
fact that the decision will be a prec-
edent by which other companies
dealing with the railroads will be
guided in the future.
The contention OF the plaintiff
company Is that the bills OF ladlng,
made out az the time OF shipment
specify the weight and freight
charges on each car. and that this
should rule when delivery Is made.
Instead. Il Is claimed In the COM
plant. that In the cases OF the cars
mentioned the road refused TO make
delivery to the plaintlff company at
the eastern end OF the line until the
additional freight charges had been
paid.
