LIVELY RATE WAR
the truckee lumber co .,
CAUSED IT.
San Francisco, June 20,—Competition
between the Oreg >n Railway A Naviga
tion Company, the Truckee Lumber
Company and unattached vessels of all
kinds for freight between this city and
Portland has nt last broken into an open
rnte war, in which sweeping cuts have
recently been made on the established
schedules. Between the ports mention
ed, the Oregon Railway & Navigation
Company hold for a long time a nionop-
olp of the carrying trade. When the
Truckee Lumber Company secured mills
at Astoria and Portland a line of ves
sels was put on for the purpose of bring
ing the output to this city. For a
while, this company confined its trans
portation operations to lumber alone,
hut finally
got to taking general
merchandise from this city to Portland
The vessels had to go there lor lumbi r,
ami it occurred to the management that
they might as well go up loaded as light.
I lere the Oregon Railway & Navigation
Company encountered its first oposition.
Then other craft got into the trade until
il was pretty well divided
It was im
possible to make and hold a uniform
rate
The unattached vessels would
abide by no fixed schedule, ami the
lumber people, being on the line for a
one-way cargo of their own, could han
dle merchandise nt a lower rate than a
regular transportation company
This
condition of affairs has existed for a
year past, and the Oregon Railway &
Navigation Company has recently recog
nized the feasibility of a decided stand
Merchandise rates have been greatly
reduced, and, in lumber, the charges
have dropped from $3.50 to $1.00 per
thousand
“We have made this cut,” said Gen
eral Agent F. F. Connor today, “in
oredr to give the opposition some of its
own medicine. We do not object to le
gitimate competition, but we do object
to Damp competition. It has been im
possible to iniiintain fixed rates. Nearly
every vessel outside of those operated
by our company hud a rnte of its own,
and the result was gvnoral denmnili/.a-
tion.”
J
L. Merguire, manager of the
Truckee Lumber Company, says that
the Oregon Railway & Navigation peo
ple want ths earth, and they se« in to
think that, no other company has a
right to engage in the catrying Hade
between here Portland.
“For several months,” continued Mr
Mergui re, “the company has been try
ing to get us off this line. We have to
go to Portland, anyway and why should
we not lake a cargo of merchandise nt a
ratengrec'l upon between the shipper
ami ourselves! We shall meet, in fact,
we base slready met its cut, ami I guess
we can hold out as long as onr compe
titors The Oregon Railway & Naviga
tion company has offered us many in
ducements to let tin* Portland tm e
alone, and now it seems th.it it has
adopted huldozing tactics. Ws can meet
all of its reductions, ami still make
money. ”
