Board of Trade, Pittsburgh,
Report of Committee on the Comntum'eafj'on of
j Carlos Cobb, Jr ., on the subject of Railroad
Discrimination, ,
> Gentlemen: The paper referred to your Com
mittee is a printed circular signed by Csrloa
Cobb, 11. L. Flab, and eigfit other?, SUte Execu
tive Committee appointed by a Convention of
the people of theStato of New York. The cir
cular is addressod to tho County Supervisors of
(bat State, but is accompanied by a letter asking
the co-operation of yonr Board io the acoora
plishmeat of Us important objools. We extract
a few passages to show what these objeots are:
“Wo set np the claim the poople of New York
are entitled to the vse of AV?r Fork Railroads upon
equal terms with strangers, (or people of other
Stales.) It bas alwas been considered nnsound
commercial polioy to disorimlnate against the
properly of the peoplo of another Slate, passing
over our pubiio works to morkot. * * * *
* * * * But wo shall show you the more
strange and nnoaturat spectacle, in that our
railroads bare latterly practiced tho most severe
discriminations against tho people grantiogthem
their franohisos, in favor of strangers; that to
such extent is this carried at times that property
arising in other Stales is transported at 25@50
percent, below actual cost of bare transporta
tion, while upon the citizcos of the State of New
York Is imposed rales not only to cover snob loss,
but to rosko largo profits upon their aggregate
transportation basineas. ******
The effcot of such discrimination bas been pa
ralyzing to tho entorpriss of this State, and to
drivo its industrial pursuits to other States,
where artificially made more remunerative; every
pursuit, agricultural, meohaoiosl and mercan
tile, is laid under contribution by this power;
proximity to market loses its advantages; whilo
taxed, upon tbo theory that it still retains its
advantages; and the depreciation In value of
farming lands alone, sinco the institution of this
oppressive discrimination against the products
or this State in favor of those of other States,
already amounts to more than total cost (said to
be about one buodred and fifty millions of dol
lars) of all the rnilooads in tbeState ; the man- |
ufaoturer is driven from the State, taxation is j
increased, while at the same time ability to pay
is diminished. ■■>*** The only remedy i
for those evils Is tbe enactment of a Pro-rata i
Freight Rill, which so far from impairing the
full usefulness of the railroads, cripple them, or
rendering them less remunerative to their stock
owners, would be positively beneficial to overy
legitimate exerciec of their franchises; and at tbe
same time give to the peoplo of this State the
use of our railroads upon the eamo terms they
•ball be offered to strangers.”
From Lbelettcr of tbo Chaircoao.which accom
panies the paper, wo make tbe following exlraot:
“Does not Pennsylvania also find Discourse of
her Railroad* leading to her injury '' How long
after your'wholesalo merchants- at Pittsburgh
ore driven away to western places, can your
manufacturers stand tbe effect of this sort of
discrimination in favor ofdisiaot railroad termi
ni " Is not now tbe lime for ail places aggrieved
to insist on justice ere It be top late ? * * *
• * 4 * In aoswer to our attempts, the
New Yvrbroadscry out,the Pennsylvania road is
aot 6ubjecl to a pro rata freight bill—how can we
compote with it if you restrict us ?"
\ our committee entered into a correspondence
with distiaguiahedfgentlcmen of the State ofNew
\ork, in regard to the subject matter referred
to,which resulted In tbo reception of earnest let
ters and numerous (documents, going to show us
that there 1* a spontaneous and vigorous effort
now being made bp tbe peoplo of that State to
free themselves frotn tbe thraldom in which they
are held by ibeir .great railroad corporations.
The statemeotalconlaioed ia the documents
aluded to, are placed, by tho high character of
their authors, abovo suspicion of Inaccuracy;
nor can we learo that they hovo been contra
dicted. They exhibit a fearfully discouraging
state of attaint io the once flourishing city of
Buflaio, and the manufacturing and agricultural'
districts along the Erie and Central railroads,
which is clearly trnocablo to the unjust and un
wise management of those great lines of travel
and traflia. Fur fivo years they havo been pour
log wealth Into Iho coffers of tbo cities of New
York and Boston, and builJiog cities ia Iho
Western States at the expense of tbe merchants,
manufacturers and farmers of western New York.
Wholesale merchants of Baffalo, iodaced by
the discrimination in favor of those cities, have
transferred ibeir business to Chicago, Bt. Louis,
Detroit and elsewhere. Consumers finding the
freight oq goods bought in New York or Chicago
to be bo tnuoh lees (h&qvftoni the intermediate
points, have ceased tos>uy at tbe latter. Manu
factorerahaye rtmovc'djiojjyw Eogland or to the
; \Yest for the eamo reaeou/" The great flouring
mills are idle and decaying, for they are deprived
of the advantages which.led to their erection—
the facilities for getting supplies of grairf,' and
nearness to (be market for tbe disposal of their
products. Tbo farmers suffer most of all, for by
tbe act of the roads in carrying the produots of
the cheap land* of Illinois, Indiana and Michi
gan, at ices rates from (hose distant places than
ia charged from western Now York, their only
compensating advantage for the high first cost
of ibeir own lands, viz: nearness to market Is
destroyed. Tho effect has been, that nearly all
the farmers who could soli out aod go west have
done so; others would follow the example, but
purchasers are not to bo found. It isetated that
“the depreciation is tbo value of farmiog lands
in the county of Monroe alone, Is four millions
of dollars," And that tbo average decrease in tbo
valuoof all jho farming lands in western New
York, hsa been more (ban twenty-tiro per cent,
in tbe last five years.
Your ooramitteo cannot, within tho limits of
this report, adduce a titho of the incontrovert
ible array of facts, figures and arguments by
which (be New York commiUeo trace the opera
tions of their Railroads to tbeoo disastrous re
sults. Wo duly stalo in brief tbeir conolaiions,
and our own conflation of (heir truth and tho
correotnee* of the roasonlog. Au examination
of these doenmeota would excilo in us tbeutmost
astonishment, that for so many years tho great
Blalo of :New York should have allowed t&ts sys
tematic impoverishment! and destruction of the
Interests and rights of the people to go on un
checked, were it not, that wo of Pennsylvania,
have quietly permitted the samo wrong to bo
perpetrated Against our interosls and rights.
On instituting a comparison, wo find that bad
as is tbo eoso presented to us by the people of
'Western New York, tbq treatment they havo re
ceived from their railroads, is merciful compared
with what we endoro from onr own.

An analysis and comparison of the local rates
for shorter distances would probably show a
greater difference. Ono of tho New York Re
ports (by a Committee of (ho Board of Super
visors of Erie county) 4ven when demonstrating
tho exoees to which the practice of discrimina
ting against them, is carried, and bitterly de
noonclng its injustice'and disastrous effects,
contains these words: "But compare the rates of
transportation levied Upon the trafiio of that
great States Pennsylvania, and we find (hem
from 45 to 100 per oentdearer for corresponding
distances than ore imposed by tbe Baltimore &
Ohio road or the roads of our own State."
V?hen the Pennsylvania railroad was projected.
it was held by tko projectors that the interests!
of Philadelphia and Pittsburgh were one and
indivisible, and both so intimately connected
with the prosperity of the whole Stato, that
they, with agricultural aod manufacturing
interests of (be Interior must stand or fall to
gether. It was proposed to “securo for the
Stale the advantages of our natural

Thompson, we think, was quite correct in the con*
elation which wo have ventured to itallclse/ahd ite
are glad to be able to addaco so eminent an authori
ty in favor of the correctness of the views advocate
la our report. : i |
The antidpationi of Philadelphia and Pittsburgh'
were based on the relative naturally advantageous
position of the one as compared with rival seaboard
cities, and the other In the gateway to the Obloj Valf
I ley. Each was to be a bona fido tenulouiiof the
I road. When the traffic from east to wesf;vns by
1 pack horses, *our route was relatively the bes|
When by “ Conestoga wagon,*' Philadelphia ans
Pittsburgh still maintained supremacy in the coml
meroe. When a canal was constructed, the tiro
prospered in the most satisfactory proportion iol their
rivals, until the better canal and railroads of N. li
began to diminish our relative advantages. ThS
Pennsylvania railroad was ■to restore them, and i)*
was natural that in view of the prosperity enjoyed b|
the termini of tho canal and the whole heart of th|
State through which it passed, wo should expccl
great results from the most perfect additional lino of
communication proposed. Id view of the promise!
results the road was chartered and built. la’pcrfece

traffic, advantagesof location, shortness of distance! |
and ail elements ofeuccess, ills without a rival. Bog I
where are the results? We find ourselves to be id |
the position of the Hindoo, who haring erected hit
Prayer mill on the hanks of hU beloved Ganges, con
fidently goes to sloop, lolled by the clattering wheel
and sploshing waters. His slumber is to be disturb
ed in time by tbo roaring of a flood, which sweepi
away his dwelling and perils his life. Let ns
onraelvei and do What we may to retriore the enW
of oar past sopineneis. < ]
It cannot bo denied that the Pennsylvania
Railroad, if managed with an honest purpose td
realise for Pennsylvania the objects proposed id
Us construction, has the ability to aooompllsh
the most sanguine expectations of its projectors.!
Instead of ihJa, U seems to yonr committee to;
hare beea condaeted in so adverse a spirit as to:
hare required all the advantages of position,’
coals, ores, forests, rich lands and general man*:
ofactariog facilities, to maintain an equilibrium
against the effects of its crushing exactions and
discriminations in favor of other cities and
States. Bat for the advantages alluded to, Penn*!
sylvaola would at this moment bo in afar iworse;
condition than Western New York, as depleted*
in the documents which call forth this report.;
la the case of the discriminations of the New
York roads, there Is the slight palliation that 1
the great metropolis of their own State is the
terminus, and receives a lion’s share 0/the prey
wrested from ail the rest of the State. The rail-8
roads of New York are in eomo sense the jaoksls!
of their own lion. The wrong done to PennsyM
vania is for the benefit, exclusively, of cilice and
towns beyond our limits. It is not Pittsburgh!
alone that is aggrieved, for great as is the wrong!
done to us, U does not muoh exceed that whlcbi
is inflicted on oar metropolUan city, the Inter*
mediate towns, and agricultural districts. :
We will give a few figures, almost at random,
from the volumioous toll sheets, to proTe ourjj
proposition. We qaote them merely as exam*:
pies, for it would fill volumes, to apecify the*
special discrimination against all points on
road in Pennsylvania relatively to each other or;
to those of other Btates. For convenience we
take also a single class of goods: s

Tho deduction from wbWls' that the ciliren of
Uarrisburg, In a season of short crops like the
present, must pay for his floor a higher price
by 30 cents per barrel, than tho inhabitants of
New York city. The Chicago flour is setjlpwir
to the farmer In Blair ooupty, ■Pcßusytfabout
the same price as to the consumer In New York
oily. When the crops dre abundant and the
farmer of Pennsylvania lias flour to sell in the
eastern cities, tbe tame scale of prices puts the
western flour into competition in sneh a man
ner as to deprive him of t&e advantages of near
ness to tho market, and totals done by the im
proved line of transport ithich was erected for
the very purpose of adding to that advanUgo.
A firm in this city baa been reoelvingryeiflour
fromLewislowo, a distance of 187 miles. j The
lowest rate at which U has been carried is COo
per barrel. Another firm gives us the data of
shipments of flour from St. Louis to Philadel
phia by oontraot with the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company’s agent, via river and rail, at 55 cento
—the boat received 25o—leaving 300 lb the
Penna. Railroad. The faotjhero appears; that
the road carried the produce of the Missouri
farmer 353 miles for 30cts, and that ofthe Penn
sylvania farmer, 187 miles for GO cents, i
These facts, in connection with those pub
lished by yonr Board in 1858, are sufficient to
show the wrong done to tbe towns and agricul
tural districts. Hi the heart of Pennsylvania,
We are aware that the card rates are seldom
adhered to when the shipment panes throogh
this Stale. They are generally adhered to be
tween Intermediate points—and most of (he
cases of speoial contracts show aetill more In
jurious discrimination against us than tbe card.
The Pennsylvania Company professes, in these
printed rates, to “purine a fixed difference of
rates in favor of Philadelphia doe to her’geo
graphical position."

r The same Ibiog is operating against all tho

t is not merely in tho larger Western cities, that
pe meet it, hut every village is beginning to dis
cover that purchases made in New Eaglaud or
Yotk at even higher prices than in Phila
delphia or Pittsburgh, often cost tho purchaser
less when delivered at his borne. Take for ex
ample the town of Richmond, Isdiann. We have

Produce dealers in this city furnish an illus*

1 \ Your commilteo .are unwilling to weary you
further with which aro oat repetitions in
kind of the experience of every member of this
Board. Ia a former report it was shown how
the short-sighted policy of the railroads utterly--
obliterated a branch of manufactures which
had started into vigorous existence, and of
Which Philadelphia next to I'tusbnrgh wa9 reap
ing tho advantage. Tbit business aloca (tho
nianafactare of Hour) paid to the Pcana. Rall
rpad Company $lOO,OOO per annum ia freights,
and a much larger earn to the steamers and west -
era roads, on the transportation of grain. What
if would have reached by this time, if a different
policy had prevailed, it is not for us but
W* aro satisfied that the policy which destroyed
it, and is eating out the life of so many other
branches of industry in this portion of tbo Stale,
cannot be for the interest of the stockholders or
the people, and least of all for tho advantage of
Philadelphia.

Board o/ Trad* CoatmUUe:
Gettluos : At your request, wo prr-cant the teltewlcg
statement of ficta ia reference to tho nutter of difcrizolna
tion'ln railroad freights.
;Our boon has beenoitablUhcd la L twiners here aomo S 3
years; conducted daring the greater part of ihufctJm® by
Oar water partner. Tor some 2d years we bare been thip
p6ra of produce to the carters cities, principally to Phila
delphia, Ia the article of floor, wo bare forwarded froa
lg.too to 40,000 bbU. per aonneu, nntil within the past two
years, when by the policy of the Pennsylvania Railroad wo
are sobatantiaily cat off from all participation In tho pro
duce trade of the eastern cities, at least from Pittsburgh. *
: Our Uado is affected Jo two ways. Formerly, when oar
city was nearer the seaboard Chan Wheeling, Cincinnati or
Chicago, prodace moving outward came natcrally-io Pitts
burgh, where, if the market wae satisfactory,it waj disposed
off and if not, it coaid bo sent forward on the beat terms.
, In this way largo quantities of produce brand a market in
this city, from whence the dealers here coold compote with
aqy other portion oi the west. Plccatho iotrodoction of
the prewnt railroad policy, these receipts of prodoco are
•holly lost to Pittsburgh, ter the simple reason that rhip
mfnta to the eartcan be made at relatively raws* lower rates
from any point In the farther west. Tb* oth-r modo by
Which this branch of our tmsioeej has been oltncst entirely
deitroyod,lsthis: In the present Arrangement of freight*
tnthe cut, waitern dealers can ship from Pittebnreb to
Philadelphia or Sew York at one-half to two-thirds the cost
ofsameaerrtee to Pittsburgh merchant*, tbns transferring
this entire traffic from this city to points in the wwt. The
cocioqaencrhe* been that wocaa make noshipments to
tooths aast unless oar pnrciajes and shipments are made at
and from points in the west. Taos a large business, legiti
mately oars, has been wrested frem ca, And tho serpent we
vanned in oar bocom has stengos to the bentt.
)Te append as instance of this discrimination against
Pittsburgh, trom oar own experience:
-May, IMO, we shipped SOW bbls flour from :St. Lonls to
Philadelphia, l»y stunner and P. K. R. at 53 cents per bU.
throogh. Tho steamboat freight wag 23 coots, allowing the
railroad SO cents per bbl. was minia j a
