Nir2inia Asks The Interstate Com

REIMBURSEMENT of the Rate.

Richmond, Va, Feb. 6.-The hear
ing before the Interstate Commerce
Commission on the petition of the
Virginia cities to intervene in the
North Carolina rate reduction case
began today in Washington. Attor-
ney- General Pollard appearing in the
case in behalf of the State Corpora
ten Commission, made an effort on
Wednesday to have the hearing post
poned until after March l5. He re-
ceived a telegraphic refusal yesterday,
ar. left last night for Washington.
The first brief to be written by tie
new :. 'nrney-general was filed yes
terday with the Interstate Commerce
Commission in this case.
The North Carolina Corporation
Commission some time ago undertook
to secure from the railways entering
that State from the West reduction
in the freight rates from Louisville
and Cincinnati to North Carolina
cities. Before such an agreement
could be effected the Virginia cities
intervened before the Interstate Com
merce Commission on the ground that
any reduction along the lines desired
by North Carolina should be follow
ed by corresponding REDUCTION III
rates from Virginia cities into
North Carolina Without road
justment of the existing rates, it Is
claimed, Virginia cities would | be
shut out of the North Carolina mar
kets by the proposed reduction from
Louisville ar3 Cincinnati TO North
/ Carolina cities.
The Virginia cities and the State
CORPORATION Commission, which en-
tered the controversy in behalf of the
Virginia cities do not oppose the
granting of the reduction sought 1y
North Carolina. They do, however,
pray chat the difference in the reIa-
tive rates to points in the State OF
North Carolina from Virginia cities.
on the one hand and the rates from
Cincinnati and Louisville on the other.
shall in no event be increased as
against the Virginia cities, but be de-
creased to such extent as the commits
sion may determine to be Just ana

and non prejudiciaI.'
The Virginia cities and the state

first brief in the case on November
%. and were represented at the hear
iro in Greensboro, n. c., December
