Supreme Court Decision Is of
Moment to Big Coal
Carriers.
Washington, Feb. 21.The sweeping
decision of the United States supreme
court in the case of coal-selling by the
Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad company
becomes more important as it is studied
and reviewed by legal experts. It is
now the opinion or eminent lawyers
that it will hereafter prevent railroads
from operating coal mines, if it does
not actually prevent them from own
ing such property..
It is conceded that the views ex
pressed by Justice. White will prevent
railroads from selling coal in competi
tion With private shippers and naming
a lower freight rate for their own
product.
The interstate' commerce commission
has not yet fully determined the ex
tent to which Justice White 's decision
will afford a precedent. The members
have agreed on the one point that rail
roads cannot make a discriminatory rate
in favor of their own coal. They have
not reached a conclusion as to whether,
under the decision, they, can begin
prosecutions mgainst the railroads con
trolling the output of anthracite coal
in Pennsylvania.
Can Beach Coal Trust.
There is an inclination to the belief
that such a precedent is established
and that under it all combinations gov
erning the coalfields can be successfully
prosecuted, but no final conclusion has
tlGGTJ. T6icll6cl
If the opinion"of the supreme court
had-stopped with the point at issue,
and held that a railroad cannot make
a freight rate in favor of its own
product, the position of coal-owning
roads would have continued compara
tively safe. Justice White went fur
ther and enunciated the general princi
ple that when a railroad, pays itself
the published tariff- on commodities on
which it both a dealer and a common*
carrier, it violates the spirit of the
original interstate commerce act of
1887. s,
This is construed.as.equivalent to de
claring that a railroad cannot trans
port commodities which, it owns, or
which comes from .mines under its own
ership. Under this construction, all the
Pennsylvania anthracite roads would
be compelled to abandon the business
of mining and selling coal.
The only comfort obtained by rail
road attorneys in the decision of Justice
White is the declaration that the point
i of ownership was^ not involved in Ihe
case under consideration, and a subse
quent opinion on the precise point might
be entirely different.-
Bookkeeping us Evasion.
This point is being giv en .careful con
sideration by members of the interstate
commerce commission. They are seek
ing to determine, before bringing a
large number of suits against roads
handling both anthracite and bitumi
nous coal, whether the decision can be
evaded by bookkeeping. It might be
possible,* bv taking money out of one
pocket and putting it into another
pocket to find some, plan for avoiding
Culpability -undernhe court's findings.
If bookkeeping cannot save the rail
roads, it is held to, be certain that ithe
present" system of .transacting business
must be changed, jit once. The..policy
of buying coal at jthe mines or staking
it out, transporting itto .the point of
sale and distaiMtion, at lower rates
than are giVeUiBmio^tihg- shippers must
cease. All %M MlTroads .engaged in
handling the Santfrva^ btitput pursue
this plan.- Some bwn their mines and
others 'purchase the coarHat low prices.
ST. PATRICK A SGOT^
IRISHMEN FALL OUT
Journal Special Service.
Providence, K. I., Feb. 21.The com
mittee from the Allied Irish societies
in this city has decided not to hold the
street procession, which has been a fea
ture of the annual celebration of St.
Patrick's day. The only reason as
signed for this action, according to the
committee, is that an argument arose
during the session over the nationality
of St. Patrick. One member, a man
from Tipperary, said that the patron
saint of' Ireland was a Scotchman and
thereat a warm discussion developed
his remarks about St. birt"
were verified. The other members took
issue and a warm verbal contest en
sued.
After the discussion of St. Patrick's
place of nativity was brought to a con
clusion, it was found that the debaters
could not agree on any subject. The
meeting finally adjourned after a vote
had been taken which decided that no
parade would be held.
