Michigan Fruit Shippers Win
Case Against Railroads.
Must Act at Once.
News-Times special rvice

News-Times Special rvice;
LANSING, Mich. Sept. S.-By a
decision Of the Michigan railroad
commission the Pere Marquette and
Michigan Central and Big Four
railroads have been pulled up with
a sharp jerk on their rates for the
shipment of fruit from one side Of
Michigan to the other.
The railroads are given 80 days
in which TO make "A choice Of two
ways 10 correct what the commits
sion terms unreasonable rates" If
they do not make a choice within
that time the commission will force
upon them what it thinks "A reason
able rate
AS matters stand today the West
Michigan fruit shippers are pracu-
cally barred from shipments of
grapes. peaches and apples into the
city of Detroit by reason of the
high rates in force on those three
railroads. Fruit is shipped out OF
michigan TO points twice as far
away as Detroit from points in
other states twice as far south and
east at a lower rate than shipments
can be made from Benton Harbor.
ColomO, Fennville and other points
in the fruit belt, into Detroit.
Startling Figures.
As a sample of conditions as they
now exist. as recited in the opin-
ion of the commission, a barrel Of
apples can be hauled from southern
Illinois into the city Of Detroit Tor
% cents. yet the same barrel of
apples. grown on the west coast of
Michigan, would cost "a cents
freight from Benton Harbor to De
troit.
Grape growers in the Niagara
district in New York state, in and
around Fredonia. can ship grapes
into the city of Detroit. a two and
half day trip. for 6 cents a hun
dred pounds less than the grape
grower at Benton Harbor can ship
20 Detroit, a trip consuming from
one afternoon until early the next
morning.
Practically these conditions have
obtained in Michigan since the re-
check OF freight rates of October.
1914. in which the railroads were
permitted to make advances in
their states by almost totally abol-
ishing in many cases the commod-
ity rates and substituting therefor
rates based upon percentages of
class rates. The inequalities COM
planned of began to show them
selves when the new rates went into
effect. but it was the following year
before shippers felt the fun benefit.

cision of the commission is based.
