Wells Fargo Express Rates Draw 800 Percent Profit Claim
The California state railroad commission, after investigating express rates, says Wells Fargo earned a gross revenue of 1.45 million dollars in two months on an 11.1 million dollar California investment, projecting about 8.72 million annual profit, an approximate 800 percent return. The figures come from rate expert F. R. Lashell, with traffic manager C. R. Graham not disputing. The expert argues California rates were 200 to 400 percent higher than in states with fixed rates.
