Railroads in Rate War Shrinks Tariff Differentials
Local reports say the Boston and Maine ties a tariff with the Interstate Commerce Commission reducing by a cent per mile on inbound commodities to Western hubs. The tariff takes effect March 6 and eliminates past differentials between Boston and New York Philadelphia and Baltimore. The Boston and Maine and the New York Central both filed tariffs, with March 14 as the effective date for one. The broader fight, seen as a clash for control of import traffic among Eastern lines, widens its reach and impact.
