SWITCHING CHARGES
FOUGHT BY JObBERS
Interstate Commissioners Hear
Testimony Alleging Assess
ment Is Discriminatory

Repeated efforts on the part of the
railroad attorneys to obtain the names
of the Southern Pacific employees who
had given information to inspectors of
the interstate commerce commission
during the hearing of the switching
cases brought by the Pacific jobbers'
and manufacturers association yester-
day met with the blankest failure. Both
of the inspectors refused to divulge
their professional secrets and though
J. W. Durbrow and e. E. Camp, rep
resenting the Southern Pacific and
Santa Fe, respectively, did their utmost
to force out the names the effort was
without avail
The complaint of the manufacturers
and jobbers of San Francisco and Los
Angeles is that they are Disseminated
against in having to pay switching
charge, in addition to the regular
freight rates They declare the charge
to be illegal inasmuch as no other
city is subjected to it. and also that
it is upreasonably high. The rate is
$3.50 car, the claim of the railroads
being that it is based on the time in
which engines are used for this pur
pose.
SECRET INVEsTIGA ALTON
Unknown to the railroads George B.
Winters and Frank McManamy, two
inspectors of the interstate commerce
commission, under the pretense of ex-
amining the safety appliances of the
engines, made a record of the industrial
lines of switching, their figures show
ing that the time the engines were
used was considerably lower than that
shown by the reports OF the railroads.
In obtaining this information they
quizzed several railroad employees As
to who these men were the attorneys
for the railroads had a deep and great
anxiety to find out.
why did you make your inyestiga-
ton in secret?" plaintively asked Dur
brow. why did you not inform the
officials of the company of your quest?
They would have willingly supplied the
data"
broad grin spread over the fea-
lures OF McManamy, who was asked
the question: Because, he replied,
| there might possibly--mind. l say
there might possibly-be an inclina-
tion on the part of the officials to
have the situation conform to their
statements
ATTORNEY is FOILED
who were the employees who gave
you the informatlon!- ne was asked.
II decline to answer because the en-
ployes might possibly be subjected to
discipline and perhaps to discharge"
"Will you take my assurance that
these employees will not be discharged?"
continued Durbrow.
"I will not" said the witness. en-
phatically.
will you take the assurance of the
general superintendent"
Il might possibly take his assur-
ance-but I would not divulge the
names
what was their occupations"
THAT would be tantamount to giving
their names and 1 decline TO answer"
Whereupon Durbrow arose with the
customary railroad motion to dismiss,
took on an injured air, and proceeded
with the examination.
The hearing was before Examiner J..
D. Lederman and dealt with the records
of the time of engines in Industrial
switching as found by Winters and Nc
Manamy at Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco. The case was continued to May
