FAIRMONT COMPANY LOSES.
Rate Case is Decided Against Creamery -
ery Case by Commission.
Washington , Jan. 20. The interstate
commerce commission dismissed the
complaint of the Fairmont Creamery
company against the Burlington. The
- reamery company complained of a
rate of 32 cents per ten gallon can of
Team from Concordia , Kan. , to Crete ,
Neb. , on the ground that the rate was
unreasonable In view of the fact that '
the Burlington had established a rate
of 20 cents per ten gallons cream on
100 cans or more shipped from Con
cordia to Crete by passenger train.
This special rate was continued in
force until March 1 , 1909. On that
date the rate was advanced to 32
cents without limitation as to the
number of cans shipped.
In September of 1909 , a special rate
of 20 cents was restored with an liv
crease of the number of cans In each
shipment to 100 cans during the sum
mer months , the minimum remaining ,
at 100 cans from October to March ol
nfe.
each year. This rate is still in force
The complaint contended the rate was
unjust because of a 20 cent rate since
1900 with the exception of six months
interval above referred to. Testimonj
showed that the complaint first suggested
fiii
gested the present rate and the com
mission thought it all right and has nr
reason now to change Its mind.
