Missouri Railroads Face 1 Cent Per Mile National Guard Transport
Missouri railroads confront a mandamus action to enforce a 1 cent per mile rate for transporting the National Guard, with hearings set for the October term of the state supreme court. The case asks the Public Service Commission to fix maximum freight and passenger rates, while railroads challenge the commission’s rate making authority under Article 17. Separately, the court will assess overcharges by Missouri Pacific and related railroad entities, appointing a master in chancery to evaluate claims and disburse funds. Public notices also mention factory outputs in St Charles and hearings on staves classification and lumber rates.
