RAILROADERS ARGUE
They Deny That lhe Farmers Would Be
Materially Benefited.
BATE CUTiERS BROUGHT TO TIME
The Georgia and the Sont'i Carolina'and
Georgia Promise to Put Back Their
Old Kates If Commission.
Atlanta, December 80.—The rail,
roads are making a fight before the
state railroad commission for $200,000,
which they are about to lose under a
recent order passed by the board.
When the case was up a few weeks
ago the traffic men did not seem to
grasp it, but they came to time yester
day morning. Now they realize that
the order reducing the rates on fertil
izers 20 per cent means to some of them
2 per cent of their gross earnings. That
is an item to save, if possible, for once
lost there is no way to recoup.
The Central estimates its loss at
|40,000. The Southern would lose
$40,000; the Plant system $15,000; the
Georgia and Alabama $15,000, and the
other roads similar amounts.
It came out early in the proceedings
yesterday that the roads are willing to
go back to their old rates and that the
Georgia railroad and the South Caro
lina and Georgia have been prevailed
on to restore their former
rates if the commission will just call
off its 20 per cent reduction. Some
influences have been at work on these
two roads to get them in line.
The roads first went at the commis
sion with a request to suspend the
order cuting the rate for thirty days,
and put forward the weak roads to
pull at the ehestnuts first. That would
give them time to prepare their case,
they stated. They had only a few
minutee’ notice, they pleaded, in
which to meet the question of the rea
sonableness of the rates. This, they
contended, was too short notice.
Mr. Alex Smithjwas the first spokes
man for the roads. He stated that he
had been selected by them to ask for a
suspension. His road is having a hard
time earning operating expenses, he
stated, and to reduce its revenue from
fertilizers by 20 per cent would be a
burden on the company. Only eight
lines had been served with notice origin
ally to appear and discuss the first propo
sition to reduce the rates. Thirty or
more roads in the state had ' not been
notified. The roads understood that the
original complaint was against the inter
state rates, a question for the interstate
commerce commission to hear, and not
one to be argued before the state board.
The effect of the order reducing rates was
a great surprise to some who were parties
to the applicataion.
Judge Fort explained that the case had
been pending long enough for all the
roads to inform themselves on the nature.
It is not incumbent on the commission to
notify any railroad company of a com
plaint. The commission does give notice
to interested parties as an accomodation
and a courtesy. The enforcement of the
order would handicap the smaller roads in
their efforts to earn fixed charges. Judge
Fort inquired how much fertilizers the
Atlanta, Knoxville and Northern moves
in a year, and Mr. Smith estimated it to
be 1,500 tons.
The influence of all the roads would be
used, said Mr. Smith, with the Georgia
aud South Carolina and Georgia roads to
get them to restore their old rates and to
withdraw the cuts which they put into
common points in Georgia if this reduc
tion of 20 per cent is called off- He had
seen a telegram since entering the room
which stated that the cut rates would be
taken off by the roads which had first put
them in if the commission would go back
to.its old tariff. Mr. Smith hoped that the
board would at least suspend the order for
thirty days.
Mr. Walter G. Charlton, of Savannah,
course! for the Georgia and Alabama
road, followed Mr. Smith urging a sus
pension of the order. He stated that the
roads wanted a little time to show that
the new rate would be a burden. The
proposed reduction would simply take 20
per cent out of the revenue derived from
one commodity without benefiting the
farmer. There had been no complaints
from the people along his system, and
that was an evidence that the rate was
wot unrealonable.

asked how much of the fertilizer
moves id Jaunary, and be replied that
his company ships about 40 per cent
of its total output be’ore the end of
that month. A suspension of the or
der for thirty days would therefore
exempt 40 per cent of the fertilizer
from the reduction. He sain that he
had no fight to make on the railroads,
but be had made contracts for deliv
ery based on the reduced rates, and
he asked the commission to allow
that order to stand. The consumer
will get the benefit of the reduction,
be stated. Contracts are made with
the proviso that the freight rate,
whatever it may be, will he added
no more, no less. The profit on fer
tilizers is very small,, he stated. His
company will handle 40 tons at a profit
less than 85 cents per ton, and the pro
duct is sold on time and it will be
nearly a year before it is paid for.
Mr. Brown, of the Western and At
lantie, argued that the reduction
would be unjust. It would take out
of this company’s revenue $1,500,
enough to pay the operating expenses
of the Rome accommodation train for
time mo it Ixß. He did not see that
the red uc ion ordered by the com
mission would benefit the manufac
turer in Georgia any. The farmers
in his county, Cobb, would probably
gave 3 cents an acre—nothing to
them, but a great deal in the aggre
ga'e to the roads.
After the noon recess, Judge Fort
announced that the board bad decid
ed not to grant * suspension of the
order at that time. The lawyers asked
for a few minutes in which to confer.
When they came back they put Geh
eral Freight Agent Pope on the stand,
and they kept him there nearly all the
afternoon. The questions became
somewhat abstract and the whole
question of rate making was opened
up. Major Pope stated that there are
no fixed rules for making rates. They
are the creatures of circumstance,
largely. He wished there could be
some rules so that the traffic men
could know just where they would
come out at the end of the year.
The proposed cut would cost his
company $15,000. Judge Fort suggest
ed that there might be a largely in
creased movement of fertilizers to
make up for the deficit. Major Pope
did not believe that there would be
any increase due to the lower rates.
Chairman Trammell asked for a
comparison of other rates with those
on iertilizers. Major Pope and Mr.
Winburne figured out the following
for him:
Salt, fifteen tons, fifty miles, $19.50:
bran, fifteen tons, fifty miles, sl2;
coal, fifteen tons, fifty miles. sl3 50;
hav, fifteen tons, fifty miles, $24; fer
tilizers, fifteen tyns, fifty miles, $lB.
Mr. Charlton brought out the point
that while the movement of fertilizers
has largely increased in the last few
years, the railway mileage has also
grown.
Mr. dußignon suggested that the
fact that the traffic in fertilizers has
increased from 202,000 tons to 325,000
tons in a few years is an evidence that
the rates were not too high. Had
they been the commodity would not
have moved.
Mr. J. M. Culp was called to the
stand and he stated that the proposed
reduction of 20 per cent would cost
the Southern railway, directly or in
directly, S4O 000. He gave the figures
to show that the rates in Georgia on
fertilizers were lower under the old
rate than thoy were in either of the
Carolinas. When bis evidence was
concluded the commission adjourned
until 9 o’clock this morning.
