About the Book

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1915 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER VI The Regulation Of Railway Rates The Rate-fixing Power Of The States The Eight Of Regulation Aside from the judicial enforcement of the commonlaw duties of public service corporations,1 railway-rate regulation has been applied in the first instance through the state legislatures and commissions and through the Interstate Commerce Commission.

Law of Carriers by Ralph Merriam, a treatise in the course in Interstate Commerce and Railway Traffic. 2 Munn v. Illinois, 94 V. S. 113; C, B. & Q. R. R. Co. v. Iowa, 94 U. S. 155; Peik v. C. and N.
