CHICAGO ALTON RY. CO. v. UNITED STATES
U.S. Supreme Court
Jan 4, 1909
This court by a divided court and without opinion affirms the judgment of the lower court holding a common carrier guilty of violating ยง 1 of the Elkins act of February 19, 1903, c. 708, 32 Stat. 847. The contention of the carrier was that the amount paid to the shipper was for use of tracks owned by the shipper, although there was no reference thereto in the published rate.
Per Curiam:
Judgment affirmed by a divided court, and causes remanded to the District Court of the United States for the Northern District of Illinois.
