RATES AND FARES
 MUST BE DEFINITE
INTERSTATE COMMERCE CoMMIS- SION ISSUES SPECIAL TARIFF CIRCULAR WHICH CONTAINS IMPORTANT STATEMENT.

Washington, January 12-1t has been determined by the interstate commerce commission that a statement of rates and fares filed in the application of those rates and fares shall be affirmative and definite. Many tariffs on file prior to May 1, 1907, contain long and short haul clauses, maximum rates, alternative rate or fare provisions or other rules, which make the application of the rates or fares uncertain, more particularly as to inter- mediate stations not specified in the tar if and some such rules. through sug gestions have been included in tariffs since May, 1907.
 In special tariff circular No. 6, just issued. the following statement of the attitude of the body is made:
 'The commission desires and requires that at the earliest practical date all fea- lures and practices are above re- ferred to shall be eliminated from tariffs and discontinued either by supplement or by reissue of tariff. It does not under estimate the volume of work in check ing of rates and fares and preparation of tariffs that is involved
 It appreciates the efforts and progress that have been made thus far and has in addition simplifcation and directness in providing and applying lawful tariff charges and to avoid hardships to ship pers or passengers at intermediate sta- llonS Wnlcn would otherwise be left With out rates or fares which they have hereto fore enjoyed, and with the understanding that the work will be earnestly pursued with the purpose of completing it by the commission, decides that until July 1, 1908, carriers may continue the use and present application of tariffs which were issued prior to January 15. 1908, and which contain rates of the character here inbefore referred to or under which with out specific provision in the tariffs there- fore, the rates or fares have been applied at intermediate stations, and excepting those tariffs which before July are cor reeted by supplements or replaced by new issues. Tariffs issued subsequent to Jan uary 15, 1908, must not contain any such rules as are herein considered or applied
 in any matter not affirmativey applied therein.
 Each carrier that has tariffs contain ing any of the rules referred to or which without containing such rule are applied at stations not specified therein, will on or before February 1 file with the com mission a statement showing by inter state commerce commission mum bers of all the tariffs of it's issue which contain | such rules or which are so applied This | list shall contain both local and joint tar l ifs that are Issued by the carrier making the list; and similar lists of their issue will be furnished on the same dates by | joint agents who issue tariffs for carriers. Revisions of these lists will be furnished to the commission on April 1 and on 1 June 1, from which will be omitted such tariffs as have been corrected or re-
