HOUSTON. Texas, Dec. Zt.— What
interested attorneys predicted would be
the closing session of the Shreveport
j rate case hearing before Commissioner
{Hall of the Interstate Commerce Com-
mission was resumed here this morn-
} ing. Thera was every likelihood that
all testimony would be In by night-
I fall instead of extending beyond the
. holidays as had been predicted. Rea-
sons for this curtailment are:
J (1.) The commissioner's decision rul-
| ing out the issue of inbound rates as
।enjoyed by the city of Shreveport.
| (t.) Incorporation in the record of
testimony taken before the Texas Rail-
| road Commission in the Dallas-Fort
' Worth rate case.
Admitting that the ruling out of in-
' bound rate privileges had put them
“up a tree,” intervenors in the suit,
jointly led by Dallas and Houston job-
bers, wre casting about for other ar-
guments wherewith to controvert
Shreveport jobbers' contention that the
present schedule of rates works as a
diserimination to thnt city. The case
of the Texas interests had been woven
about the matter of inbound rates,
but Commissoner Hull insisted that
it had no place in this suit, which
primarily deals with the powers of the
Interstate Commerce Commission,
when correlated, more or less, with
the powers of the Texas Railroad Com-
mission. «
Incorporation of the. Dallas-Fort
Worth rate testimony was agreed on
by all interests after North Texas job-
hers had formally announced their
contention that the Interstate Com-
merce Commission has not the au-
thority to prescribe intrastate rates
This record will spare the railroads
the necessity of putting their witnesses
on the stand, and thus facilitate mat-
ters.
