ANTHRACITE G,vAL
 FREIGHT RATESARE
 ORDERED REDUCED
l. c. c. Orders Sweeping Re- ductions Following Inves- tigation-Discriminatory
 Practices Charged

Washington, August 12.-Sweeping reductions in anthracite freight rates of railroads handling so per cent of the country's anthracite production were ordered today by the interstate commerce commission in decision which held the carriers guilty of giv- ing illegal preferential treatment to allied coal companies. In addition to prescribing generally lower rates called reasonable, the commission re- quired the roads to establish through routes and publish joint through rates to be paid by all shippers.
 Commissioner Harlan. who dissented, contended that while modification of many coal rates was Justified, today s saction..was inconsistent in view of the recent rate increase for virtually ali other traffic
 The decision comes after long in- vestigation of rates and practices gov erning the transportation of coal from
 
 June 10, 1912 As summed up by the commission the decision held in part:
 That anthracite coal rates in car loads from the Pennsylvania fields to tidewater ports and certain interior points are unreasonable.
 That the respondents by means of trackage arrangements and free trans- portation to junction points have ex- tended the advantages of interline transportation to their coal companies to the prejudice of other coal shippers to whom interline transportation at joint rates has been denied. Respond ents are required to establish through routes and publish joint through rates applicable thereto.
 Unlawful Concessions
 That anthracite coal is transported in vast quantities and that this tends toward lower operating costs; that con sessions and offsets granted by re- spondents to their allied coal com panies in interest charges, royalty earnings, the use of valuable property at inadequate rentals. the free use of the carriers funds and credit or by other means are as pernicious as di- rect cash rebates. Such concessions and offsets are unlawful.
 That lateral allowances paid to a coal shipper in accordance with an agreement, alleged to be additional compensation for the use of facility furnished by the shipper, are unlaw- full rebates" Lines to which the de- cision directly applies are the Central Railroad or New Jersey, Philadelphia and Reading, Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, Lehigh Valley, Erie, l. I-,e- -fa,., Nnx Susquehanna and Western. New York, Ontario and Western, the Pennsyi- vania. the Northern Central and the Delaware and Hudson company.
 The history of the development or anthracite mining, according to the de- cision, presents a series of persistent unsuccessful struggles by individual operators against the conditions inn posed by the anthracite railroads. Rates to the interior for similar distances both interstate and intrastate are high- CT than rates to tidewater.
