Transit. S. Freight
Rate Reduction
Denied by Ice.
Rails Plea for Cut to Meet
Steamer Competition Would
Burden Lines, Harm Wa.
ter Carriers.

Washington, Nov. 1t.-ApplIcations
Of transcontinental railroads for au.
ihority to decrease rates to and from
Pacific coast terminals on traffic orig
mating east of the Rocky mountains
or destined therefor, were denied to-
day by the Interstate commerce com.
mission.
The roads had declared the reduc-
tion was necessary to enable them to
meet coast to coast competition Of
steamship lines, granting OF their ap.
plIcation. Of which was challenged by
cludlng Spokane, Salt Lake city,
Reno and Phoenix, would have re-
suited in making transcontinentaI
rates generally lower than those on
traffic TO and from intermediate
points.
All Commodities Covered.
Practically all commodities In
cluded In the commerce from the Pa.
cl1c coast were covered In the rail-
roads application.
The Southern Pacific railroad, how
ever, was authorized to reduce rail
and water rates on certain commodt-
ties produced in California and des-
tined to tho Atlantic coast via Gal.
weston and the Gulf OF Mexico steam.
ship lines. This will allow the South.
ern Pacific and steamship lines TO
make joint rate OF 10 cents per 100
pounds on the coast to coast move.
ment Of asphalt. canned goods and
rice, and 80 cents on dried fruits,
even though rates for shorter dis.
tances over the same general route
may be higher. The same company
was authorized to maintain similar
rates on sulphur moving from Louis.
lana and Texas to Pacific coast
points.
Reasonable Compensation.
Water compentition, the railroad
contended, justified them in lowering
the long distance rate charges on Pa.
cific business without regard to its
effect on the interior territory or
without considering the injustice Of
levyins higher freight charges on
movements over short distances than
on long distance shipments on the
same railroads.
The commission held that the rail.
roads in the endeavor to hold the traf.
fic were justified In reducing trans
continental rates, but declared in to-
days opinion that they could not cut
further than n point which would
give them reasonable compensation"
for the service performed. The rates
so cut to meet water competition In
order to be reasonably compensatory,
tho commission declared. should be
left high enough to cover additional
expenses incurred in handling traf.
