rate for all company material was esti-
mated at one-half cent per ton per mile,
and as the coal was exclusively hauled
for the use OF another railroad and not
for any commercial purpose, IL was re-
garded as company material. and the es-
seDce OF the contract was the volume OF
the business and the fact that the South
crn Pacific furnished the equipment ard
the entire movement was in train lots.
The coal rates suggested by the trai-
lc bulletin figure one-half cent per ton
per mile. which is far less than the ac-
tual cost Of transportation, AS the coal
revenue of the Rio Grande in Utah is
80 per cent OF the gross earnings. the re-
ductlon named therein would seriously i'm
pair the earning power of the property
and must result in cripplng It's service.
THE proposition OF the club is TO re-
duce our coal freight rates on 100 per
cent Of our coal shipments when. III,
