Rate ruling a victory for Nevada on coast traffic
The Interstate Commerce Commission denied transcontinental railroads authority to lower rates to Pacific coast terminals for traffic east of the Rockies. It allowed a limited reduction for certain California to Atlantic coast movements via Gulf steamship lines, but barred broader coastal cuts. Reno Chamber of Commerce, via H. Walker, hailed the decision as a victory for Intermountain interests and the Intermediate Rate Association, affirming no lower rates to coast points than to intermediate points.
