Officials of the department of justice and mem bers of the Interstate commerce com mission are greatly Interested in the Investigation of rebating charges agnyist the Southern Pacific railway, to be commenced tomorrow by the California state railroad commission. Franklin K. Lane, of the Interstate commerce commission, conducted an Inquiry Into Southern Pacific prac tices on the coast last October, and In his report, from the evidence adduced he found: 'The existence of an extensive sys tem of preferential rates granted cer tain shippers on Interstate business by the Southern Pacific company. The record discloses a list of 103 firms, corporations and Individuals who en joy what are known as special inside rates less than the rates published to the general public on the move ment of certain designated traffic be tween points within the state of California. "That such shippers paid the full rate published In the first instance and were allowed the refund on claims which went through the auditing de partment under Instructions from the traffic department that such special rates should apply upon Interstate shipments without tariff authority. That such funds amounted in various months of the years 1906 and 1907 to from $30,000 to $50,000 per month." It was also alleged by Commissioner Lane that the rebates on state busi ness were used as an Inducement to large shippers to give the Southern Pacific their Interstate shipments.
