The interstate commerce commission receives two major complaints against railroads for discriminatory freight charges. Merchants from Denver accuse lines of favoring Pacific coast shipments, while Macon and Atlanta fruit shippers allege peaches to the North cost 7 to 8 cents per hundred pounds, with refunds and refrigeration fees exceeding fair rates.
