plication of the commission's order
In the Spokane rate case. The peti
tion sets forth that the distance from
Chicago to Spokane via the Union
Pacific is approximately 2300 miles,
whereas via the Great Northern or
Northern Pacific it is 1900 : v miles
and that to obey' the commission's
order in the Spokane case It would
be unprofitable because . of the '
greater distance and , the physical
conditions it has to overcome via
Pendleton to Spokane.
It Is likely the Harriman lines will
be permitted to be exempted as prayed.
The situation In which the, commissioti
finds Itself demands the grantine of
the Harrtirian petition. Nevertheless,.
It is generally believed around eoitimiH
siorr . headquarters that this "Harriman
move la a bluff Intended to Inake tho '
decision In the Spokane case unpopular.
The commission's advices are that
the Great Northern and Northern Pa
cific lines are agreed on the wiannor
in which they will comply with thei
order In the ghokane case, having failed
to get-the Harriman' system to oonin
to any terms on that matter. Thes
roads have asked the commission tu
extend thfe time when the new tipokan'i
rates must go Into effect to June J
instead of May 1. as the order now
roads. They v pledge that by May 2(
they will file amended tariffs showlnc
their method of compliance for ai'cepl-
ance or rejection -and tiien will deter
mine; whether they will further oppose '
the commission's - Spokane orders
. There is likelihood that the northern
roads will fiarht, as they will prohublv
file such tariffs as will not bo accepted
by the. commission. -
Btlll another phase of the case 1
the certainty that the commission will
ive to intermediate points on the I nlon
'aclfic the same rates as were .given.
to Spokane on the 32 artk-Ies on which
Spokane- specifically. .complained .. of ua
excessive rates.
Baker City is almost as far from
Chicago as Spokane is' from Chliaitu'. ,
and probably will, get the same raws,
when, an expected, that town, shall fila
