RAILROADS WIN Ifi
LOHBERBATE CASE
Interstate Commerce Commission
Grants Raise from Southern
Lumber. Fields Here.
CASE HELD OFF FOR TWO YEARS
Omaha manufacturers and others con
suming a great deal of hard wood ship
ped from the southern field, will pay
something like Sll.OOJ a year nu.re In
freight rates on this lumber in the
fiint Th. Interstiitn commerce com
mission has decided the hardwood fright
advance caso in favor of the railroads,
and has decide'd thst most of the ad
vances asked for on this commodity
shall go Into effect beginning February 1.
The order has Just been handed down by
the Interstate Commerce coinmibsion.
Omaha consumers of this commodity are
taking their dereat somewnai suiicniy.
Uiimi. Ihera la this ansle lo the
whole, affair that affords some consola-
tloii. The advance was attempted two
years ago, and through the efforts of K.
J. ' McVann, manager of the traffic
Iiumb u anil others interested in the
case, tlie advance has been held under
suspension for two years.
Vnr Omaha. Council Bluffs and South
Omaha, this two years suspension of the
rate has meant a saving or over ij,uw
in freight rates.
. All Klufla of I, amber.
Th. 'eae was known as the general
t-erdwood advance caso. It applies to
freight rates on oak. ah, hickory, eim,
cottonwood, gum and other elmllar
lumbers from Arkansas and Louisiana
to Memphis. Ht. Io-iis. Kansts City,
rnirn and Omaha.
This affects such companies in Omaha
as the Omaha Cooperate company, the
Omaha & Council Biuns street nuir
,..r,ur,v I h Omaha Hardwood Lumber
company, Omaha Box company. Adams
& Kelly company, uisDrow company.
Brown Co., and all manufactures of
boxes, barrels, or any commodity that
uses these grades ot ha id wood. Tho in
crease in freight rates will mean an In
creased price at the mills to make tip for
the extra charge in freight.

in nin.iha In thnt on cottonwood and
gum lumbers, gum staves and heating,
which sutlered a. 1-cent advance in ireigni
rates. All other hardwood lumbera Buf
fered a -cent advance
The only, sign of relief the Omaha con
sumers got in the commission's order is
that on the rate from Cairo to otnana
if. nana cttv S'-i cents was asked for
in Increase, and the commission allowed
but a 2-tent Increase; ana tnai wnere me
roads asked a S-cent Increase from south
ern Arkansas they were allowed but a
1-cent Increase.
Commenting on the decision E. J. Mc
Vann, manager of the Omaha Traffic
bureau, said: "The Omaha manufacturers
and users of Irardwood lumber, upon
which a largo advance has been granted,
took tho position before the commission
that the business would not stand the
advance. If this proves to be the fact,
tie railroads will gnin nothing In the
way of revenues because the business will
not move. On the other hand, if It ap
pears that the business can stand the
Increased rates, Omaha will be In no
worse position thsn before, because the
rate has been raised equally to all mar
Wots that compete with Omaha, that is,
Kansas City, Chicago, St. Louis, etc.
There is no doubt thnt the southern roads
need additional revenues. The Omaha
people are honestly convinced that these
advances will cut down revenues' instead
of Increasing them, because of a falling
off in business on account of Increasingly
high rates. We aro hoping that the event
will ehow we are mistaken about this,
but all the fi-.cts point In the contrary
direction. . i
"From the statement filed by the rail
roads it wss Indicated that the proposed
Increase would Increasn the annual rev
enue to llu roads about SJS.00O, provided
the same amount of business moves under,
the new rate that moved under the old.
Of thin nmonut about 6-per cent repre
sents tonnage to Omaha, South Omaha
and Council Bluffs."
