Interstate Commerce probe actions and immunity noted
The report outlines immunity given in the probe and states no immediate proceedings. Commissioner Knapp says he did not finish the investigation and cannot yet judge if evidence warrants government action to nullify the Alton deal. The attorney general will review the commission’s eventual report before any prosecutions or suits.
