FREIGHT RATES
TO BEDOUBLED
Discontinuance of Free De
livery to Work Additional
Hardship Is Charge.
AN INCREASE IS SHOWN
Express Service and Railroad Rates
Would Be More Than Under
Present System.
A double addition of costs to "Washing
ton merchants and other patrons of the
Pennsylvania and Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad companies would be made by
the discontinuance of the companies tree
local freight delhery service March 1, of
which tho companies have died notifica
tions with the Interstate Commerce Com
mission. It Is asserted by persons opposed
to the discontinuance.
Not only would the free delivery be
superseded by an express servico for
which consignees of frelKht would have
to pay, but, indlrecUy. the rail rates for
delivery of the freights, f o. b Wash
ington, would be increased, it is con
tended. Where a first-class rate from New York
to Washington now Is 37 cents. Including
free local deliver, it is pointed out, the
railroad company gets 5Z.5 cents, and the
local express company 4 5 cents. On second-class
rate of 31 cents, the railroad
gets 26.5, the local express. 4 5, third-
class rate of X cents, the railroad gets
23. the local express, 3 cents; fourth
class rate of 21 cents, the railroad gets
IS, the local express 3 cents.
Same from Other Points.
Similarly, on rates from Philadelphia
to Washington, of 28 cents on first-class
freight, the railroad gets 2X5, and the
local express 4.5, second-class rate of 23,
the railroad gets 205 and the local ex
press. 4.5; third-class rate of 20 cents, the
railroad gets 17 and the local express, 3.
fourth-class rate of 16 cents, the railroad
gets 14 and the local express, 2 cents.
From New Jerej, Delaware, and New
England points on freights to Washing
ton from which the free local delivery
is maintained bv the Pennslania and
tho Baltimore and Ohio, proportionate dl-
islons of the rates are made.
If the free local delivery Is discon
tinued, it Is contended, the prccnt rates
named by the railroads will be maintained
for dem cry of freights I f o b Wash
ington, no deduction being made to com
pensate for tho local express charges
included in tho present rates. Addition
alls, the Washington conignecs of
freight will not be able to pa for lo
cal deliver at the rites at which the
railroad companies now pay for It No
package, for example will be taken by
the local express companies for less than
25 cents
A large part of tho freight received
bj local merchants of the first-class and
In packages of les than a hundred
weight. Where nuch packages are now
delivered for a few cents, the charges
for local dellverr, after the free de
livers is discontinued, would be 25 cents
or more, with no allowance made for the
4.5 cents now included in tho gross rate
named by the railroads.
