ELEVATION CHARGE REDUCED
Interstate Commerce Commission Is
sues Important Order.
RESULT OF RECENT HEARING
1t is Charged that Collusion Existed
Between Railroads and EIeva-
tors, but, of Course, 1T
IL Denied.

The beginning Of the end is believed TO
have been reached in the custom of pay
ing arbitrary grain elevation charges.
Notice has been received that the inter-
state Commerce commission has issued
an order reducing the elevation charges
at Omaha and all othe- Missouri river
points from " OF cent per 100 pounds
to v Of cent per bushel on wheat The
old rate of " Of cent per 100 pounds
still maintains on oats.
Testimony In the case that brought
about the decision was taken in Omaha,
Kansas City and other river grain mar
kets several months ago. At that time
grain dealers in the state owning small
elevators and shovel houses contended
that the elevation charges paid by the
railroads to their competitors, the big
elevator companies, were in the nature
of rebates. and consequently a violation
of tho freight rate law.
The RniIroads' Defense.
They contended that even II the charge
was legal one 1t did not cost the big
elevator companies Il Of cent per bushel
to handle and blend wheat at the ter
minals The railroads took an opposite
view Of the case, contending that 1t was
nothing in the nature Of q rebate, but
that 1t was bonus paid to the elevator
companies to encourage them to hurry
up the unloading of the cars. By paying
this the cars were quickly back In tho
service, earning more money than the
aggregate of the elevation charges paid
Immediately after the hearing the Unioa
Pacific abolished all elevation charges at
all points on the system. Other roads.
however, have continued to pay the
charges, but the freight men of most Of
them are now of the opinion that It Is
but short time until the practice will
be abolished. not only in Omaha, but at
all other grain markets, blending and
storage points. They say that applying
to all points alike 1t will in no wise hurt
the Omaha grain market.
