INVESTIGATION AND SUSPENSION DOCKET No. 344.

COAL RATES FROM OAK HILLS, COLO.

Submitted May 5, 1915. Decided July 10, 1915.

This proceeding is supplementary to that reported in 30 I. C. C., 505. The carriers having published the joint rates therein fixed by the Commission failed to agree upon the divisions thereof. The initial line thereupon petitioned the Commission to make an order prescribing the just and reasonable divisions of such joint rates to be received by each carrier party thereto. Divisions prescribed.

A. L. Vogl, Carle Whitehead, T. S. Dines, and T. S. Dines, jr., for Denver & Salt Lake Railroad Company.

W. T. Hughes and W. F. Dickinson for Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railway Company.

SUPPLEMENTAL REPORT OF THE COMMISSION ON PETITION TO PRESCRIBE DIVISIONS.

The rates prescribed were on the basis of the rates then in effect from the Walsenburg, Colo., coal district by way of Pueblo and the Rock Island to the same destinations. The report concluded as follows:

It is the expectation of the Commission that the Moffat road and the Rock Island will be able to agree upon divisions of such rates. No opinion is expressed here as to the reasonableness of the divisions which the Rock Island asks east of Denver, nor of the divisions which the Moffat road offers to the Rock Island.

The carriers concerned were unable to agree upon the divisions and the Moffat road instituted this proceeding to obtain a supplemental order prescribing the just and reasonable divisions of such joint rates.

These joint rates are substantially the same as the rates from Walsenburg and Oak Hills to destinations on the lines of the Burlington and Union Pacific systems in adjacent territory. The points of destination are grouped and the rates range from $3 to $3.75 per ton, being on lump coal usually somewhat higher than on the lower grades. The Moffat road proposes divisions that will give it as
