Decision Of |. C. C. Applies to
Shipments of Anthracite
to TideWater Points.
CHARGES THE RAILWAYS
WITH DISCRIMINATION
Companies Directed to Establish
Through Routes for Benefit Of
All Shippers.

Lower freight rates on anthraci cite
coal from the mines to tidewater points
were ordered late yesterday afternoon
in an opinion handed down by the in
terstate commerce commission. The de-
cision found the carriers guilty of Civ
ing illegal preferential treatment to
their allied coal companies, to the
detriment of the independents.
The decision, which affects roads
handling about so per cent of the coun-
try's anthracite production, is expected
by those who have been following the
case to bring about reduction In the
price of anthracite coal. The reduc-
lions range from 10 cents to approx
mately so cents ton.
Aside from the lower rates ordered
the commission directs the roads to
establish through routes and public
joint rates to be paid by all shippers.
Commissioner Harlan Dissents.
Commissioner Harlan, the only mem
Der dissenting from the majority, con-
tended that while modification of many
of the present coal rates was Justified
the reductions are inconsistent, in view
of the recent authorization of hori-
zontal increase of 5 per cent in rates
for practically all other traffic.
The decision follows long and COM
prehensive investigation of the rates and
practices governing the transportation of
coal from the Pennsylvania anthracite
fields ordered June 10, 1912. AS summed
up by the commission, the decision held:
THAT the rates on anthracite coal. pre-
pared general domestic sizes) and pea
and smaller sizes, in carloads, applicable
from producing districts in the Wyoming,
Lehigh and Schuylkil regions in the state
of Pennsylvania to tidewater ports
and certain eastern interior points are
unreasonable, and the rates on anthracite
coal, prepared and pea sizes, from said
districts to other interior points are I'M
reasonable, and reasonable rates fixed for
the future.

Alleges Favoritism.

THAT the respondents, by means of
trackage arrangements and the free
transportation to junction points i'll the

other coal shippers to whom uterine

lish through routes and publish JOINT

That anthracite coal is a low-grade
commodity which is transported in vast
quantities in trains of maXllnum tom
car is much greater than the loading of
most other classes of traffic. Most
of the anthracite tonnage is shipped
from col1ieries whose daily production,
measured in carloads. is very large.
These conditions tend toward lower
operating costs.
THAT concessions and offsets granted
by respondents to their allied coal COM
panies in the form of interest charges,
ROYALTY earnings, the use of valua BILE

coal shipper in accordance with an
agreement, alleged to be additional

directly applies are the Central Rail

Western, Lehigh Valley, Erie, Wilkes
barre and Eastern. New York, Susque-
hanna and Western, New York. Onta-

Northern Central and the Delaware

The history of the development of
the anthracite mining, according to the
decision, presents series of persistent
unsuccessful struggles by the individ-
ual operators against the conditions
imposed by the anthracite railroads
The rates to the interior points for
similar distances, both interstate and
intrastate, are higher than the rates to
tideWater.
The per train mile revenues on
anthracite transported to tidewater
now is for the Jersey Central, $3.50;
Lehigh Valley, s16.14, and Lackawanna,
$1643.
Rates Declared Excessive.
1.-The conduct of these carriers" the
decision concluded, Extending over a
long period of years, in granting to
their allied coal companies conces-
sions from and offsets against their
established tariff rates presents very
| strong evidence that the rates on an
thracite coal which these carriers es-
tablished are excessive. Their coal
companies ship so per cent of the total
production and if substantial reduce
| ton is made in the tariff rates it's full
effect will fall upon but 90 per cent
of the tonnage shipped If the great
purpose of the act to regulate COM
merce is to be carried out we must
require that such tariff rates on this
commodity shall be established as can
be maintained on the shipments of all
shippers"
