Commerce Commissioner Cockrell and
Clement today began a hearing into
charges made by East St. Louis shippors
that Louisville haa an advantage In rates
over other grain handling points and that
rates to the southeast are manipulated.
Tha allegation that expense bills are
manipulated will be thoroughly investi
gated and the entirs method of handling
grain in Louisville will be learned aa
nearly a possible. The railroads repre
sented at the hearing are the Louisville
Nashvlllo, the Southern, the Illinois Cen

Cheaapeake Ohio, the Chicago A Alton,

some did not bear a date.
Senator Cockrell demanded that Mr.
Washburn tell the namea of the persons In
Whose hands the regular certificates or
bills were found In the Investigation of

the question the senator said:
'It is too late now to punish those peo
pie for the statute of limitations prevents
the case going before the United States
grand Jury. However. I think Mr. Wash
burn ought to speak out. even though the
offenses were committed by reputable mer
chants of Loulavllle. It is hi business to
put his foot down on such practices and
to put the screws to the guilty parties."
At the afternoon session 8. O. Reynolds.
an Inspector for the Southeastern Mlssl
slpi4 Valley Traffic association, was asked
by Senator Cockrell for an explanation of
how he had happened to O K the Irregular
or fraudulent expense bills which 'ware
brought to light during the investigation of
1901. M. Reynolds' reply waa that he did
not realise that th bill were Improperly
made out.
. 8. Dodge, third vice, president and
traffic manager of the 'Frisco system, in
explaining the methods of handling grain
now in force In Louisville, said:
I think tha present plan Is a very poor
means of reaching an pd. It Is an Invita
tion to carrier to handle bunlness at a
minimum figure under their tariff adjust
ment. It Is an Invitation to manipulation.
