Report,
WASHINGTON. Dec. 21. In its
24th annual report, submitted to Con
cress today, the Interstate Commerce
Commission gives particular promi
nence to the consideration of the
ERsiern and Western freight rate
esses which are now pending before
the Commission. The caseB have
been rsslgntd for argument on Janu
ary 9. 1911, and succeed'ng days
l-Timerilate'v following the passage
of the Mann-Elkiris law, the Commis
sion beejen to eierclse the most far
reaching power conferred upon It, the
authority to suspend proposed ' ad
vmices in rates pending investigation.
In the first half of 1910. numerniB
carriers "had given notice of g-neral
advances In rules. '
As a result of conferences between
he Government and the carriers, the
dates or the proposed advances were
suspended "ending the enactment of j
the law. Thereupon two general In-1
vesications were Instituted, one re
lating to the general advances pro
poses, ny eastern ana tho other pro-
iwseu oy western carriers.
since the last annual report, tire
Commission has announced decisions
or iisa proceedings and 12!i cases
nave been disposed of: Thus S17
cases were removed from the Com
mlEBlon s docket within the year, 660
complaints were filed and 11 nro
feedings were Instituted by the Com
mission, in addition, 25 proceed
ings Involving suspensions of tariffs
were instituted.
The number of Informal complalnlB
msen up by tne Commission shows a
considerable decrease. 3840 having
been filed in 1910, as against 4938
the previous year. Within the vrar
1737 hearings nnd investientlons re
specting alleged violations of the :nw
were held In Washington and various
parts or the countrv.
In the 12 months ended November
30. 1910. 154.588 tariff publications
were niea witn the Commission, ap
proximately 30.000 less than the
preccuing 12 months. The number
of schedules hied was conslilei-ulilv
Increased by the filing of supplements
postponing me effective dates of tar-
ins wnirn contained advanced rates
now under investigation by the Com
mission, lu the same period the
number of special permissions
granted to make the tariffs effective
on lets thnn statutory notice was
1940, substantially the same as In the
preceding 12 months.
Special reference Is made to the
work of the Commission for the es
tablishment of a uniform freight
classification. Prnclicnlly all the
rules and regulations of sepnrate
classifications have been reviewed
and revised.
A sincere effort is being made to
harmonize the conflicting features of
the various classifications, lint It will
be necessary to apply the stimulus or
requirement unless satisfactory re
sults are obtained booh.
