Attentionis directed to the dissimilarity^of the terms of the various bills ol lading^in common use. and the conflict of judi^^cial opinion as to the respects of the^lights ami duties of shippers sud carriers^thereunder. The proposed uniform bill of^lading am! t he object ions of the shipping^interests thereto are discussed, and some^of its features, esriecially the provision^that property taken al the carrier's risk^shall lie rated as ope class higher than if^talon at the owner's risk. ;ue disapproved.^The commission roconimcndi a mode of^piocccding la-fore i|,e commission and in^the courts to enforce the commission's or^^der: a ^1^ finite aciion to i oiiiih I i he car^^riers to adopt a uniform classilleation,^and that the lemli si-etion of the act fa-so^amended that eornortitions, as wa ll as^their employes and agents, shall lie indict^^able. ingsin options and futures, to prohibit^the formation of trusts, etc.. and to pun^^ish conspiracies against the freedom of^trade among the people.
