Discrimination Charged Against Several Railroads in Cotton Rates

The St Louis exchange filed with the Interstate Commerce Commission a complaint alleging railroad discrimination against St Louis in cotton traffic. Railroads named include Missouri Kansas and Texas, St Louis and San Francisco, Missouri Pacific Iron Mountain, Chicago Rock Island and Pacific, Wabash, Topeka and Santa Fe, and others. The charge cites blanket rates favoring Galveston and higher rates to St Louis, arguing this shifts cotton traffic away from St Louis to Galveston and related ports. It seeks rate reforms and avoidance of preferential treatment for Galveston, plus an ascent rate from northeastern counties near St Louis and a reversion of discriminatory practices by named roads.
