D., Dec. 14.—Omaha ship | pers may gain Important advantages , in the matter of freight rates in the American northwest apart from Min neapolis, St. Paul and Duluth, through the so-called Fargo rate case, J in which the findings and recommen dations of the special examiner of the interstate commerce commission have just been filed at Washington. Fargo, through the traffic depart ment of the Fargo Commercial club, assailed the traffic rates from Omaha to Fargo, and points similarly lo co tad, charging they are excessive In relation to tho rates charged from Omaha to Minneapolis. Duluth and St. Paul. Tho interstate commerce commis sion examiner, A. C. Wilkin, in his report, advises the commission the rates from Omaha, as well as front Kansas City, Mo., and other Missouri river crossings, are excessive in rela tion to ■ rates from Omaha, Kansas City and other Missouri river cross ings, to Minneapolis, St. Paul and Du luth. In its charge, the Fargo Commercial club recited that tho rate fnpm Omaha to Fargo on first-class freight for a haul of 508 miles is $1.88 1-2. while the rate for the ssute service from Oma ha to Duluth, a haul of 499 miles, is $1.21 1-2.
