An increase of fifteen cents ton on
coal for intrastate traffic has been
made by the Oregon railroads, accord
ing to information received yesterday
by the public service commission. The
railroads that filed the increase in their
tariffs are the Southern Pacific, the
OW. r. and ~, the S. p. and s., the
Oregon Electric, the Pacific and East
ern, and the Oregon Trunk. The in
crease in rate was made without asking
permission of the public service com
mission, which has jurisdiction over
such matters.
The interstate commerce commission
recently granted fifteen per cent in
crease on various commodities for in
terstate traffic to the roads of the
northwest and on the strength of this
increase the Oregon roads applied the
increase to intrastate traffic. The new
rate goes into effect on August and it
is expected the public service commits
