Frank Lyon. representing the IIttsburg
Coal Company, the largest shipper In the

He charged that to grant the increase
asked would practically annul all the or

had Issued In recent years.
Mr., Lyon created some excitement when
he charged that the action OF the COM
mission In compelling shippers to present
their case before the railroads have sub
mitted any testimony as to the necessity
for the increase laid the burden OF proof
on shippers, when Congress purposely had
placed It on the carriers.
