ICC Declares No Authority to Grant Relief in Rate Case
The Interstate Commerce Commission ruled it lacks authority to grant relief and dismissed complaints by Fred v. Clark Co. and Waverly 11 Works against Penn Railroad and others. The case centers on New Haven through petroleum rates from Cleveland and Pittsburgh to New England, where New Haven refuses joint through rates while participating in others. The commission found the combined rates unjust and unreasonable but said regulation cannot compel joint rates or affect intercarrier divisions, dismissing the complaints despite the alleged monopolistic impact favoring Standard Oil.
