LONG AND SHORT HAUL.

Washington, Nov 2S.-A hearing of
representatives of both railroad com
panies and shippers was commenced
today by the interstate commerce com
mission, to decide differences resulting
from the construction of the long and
short haul order.
Under the decision of the commits
sion the railroads must maintain the
present rates until Feb. II. next, in
conformity with the law which pro-
vides that no changes are to be made
for period of six months. The com
mission some time ago announced
that no changes in rates would be
permitted in the interim which in any
way affect the existing relationship be-
tween the long and short haul.
After Feb. II, under the order of
the commission, lesser rate can not
be charged for longer than a shorter
haul, except in special cases to be
determined by the commission.
The railroads are required to apply
| to the commission for each group of
rates where it is desired that the long
and short haul principle shall apply.
Specific reasons must be given in each
application for the suspension of the
law which provides that no railroad
shall charge ANY greater compensa,
ton in the aggregate for the trans.
portation of passengers or Of like
kind of property for a shorter than a
/ longer distance"
The commission is granted discre.
ton in the law to prescribe, after in
vestigation, to what extent railroads
may be relieved from the full force OF
this provision. This has led to nu
merous applications from railroads
and from the jobbers and business
interests of cities which benefit from
the present system of long and short
haul rates, for relief from the pro
visions of the new law. Under the
present system, many cities with
water competition are given consid
cradle rate preferences over interior
cities with shorter rail hauls.
