1t is possible the investigation OF
the association may result in an ap-
peal to the commission for rehearing
in the case, or an appeal for aid in
preventing the railroads from going
out of that business. If the associa-
ton officers decide that the railroads
were justified 1t is possible the COM
mission will be asked to change Its
ruling in the case.
on all sides yesterday inquiry poured
into the association with respect to
the matter, and great surprise was eX-
pressed that the railroads should have
taken such radical action.
Some of the inquiries came from the
Pacific coast cities, where the shippers
will undoubtedly appeal to the COM
mission against the unreasonableness
of the new export and import rates,
which will be in effect November !.
Such action, 1t is stated, would not be
altogether Objectionable to the rail-
roads, because it might result in the
commissions ruling that the carriers
were justified in charging that be-
tween 40 and 80 per cent less on eX-
ports on the same article for domestic
consumption at the coast cities.
If this should be the result the car
riers would be only too glad to con-
tinue in the business, as their revenue
on domestic business would not then
be threatened.
