Monon coal rate rules reviewed by Railroad Commission
Commissioner McAdams ruled on the Monon Railroad and Oolitic Stone Company dispute over freight rates for coal from sources on the Vandalia and Monon lines. The commission found the 80 cent rate should apply to both origins, with a revised division of 35 cents Vandalia and 45 cents Monon, and deemed the claimed 90 to 95 percent car capacity charge unjust. A further general coal-rate reduction remains unsettled.
