Although handicapped by the absence of his chief clerk, J. Lloyd, who has been on a wedding trip for the last week, S. H. Babcock of the Commercial club traffic bureau has been able to put the finishing touches on practically all of the details of the documentary evidence to be presented to the interstate commerce commission when it meets In Salt Lake Wednesday of next week. Cc. Dey, the attorney who will represent the people of Utah in prosecuting the case before the commission, has beer in Denver for the last few days, but most of his time from now until the commission meets in Sait Lake will be given to consideration of the Utah case. The evidence to be presented In behalf of the shippers will cover an unusually wide range, and every effort has been made to anticipate the time-honored defenses of the railroads, including “water competition’ and cost of service and “reasonble” returns on the investments. In this connection, the Utah shippers will undoubtedly have to obtain access to some of the books and records of the railroad companies, which may only be procured through an order made by the interstate commerce commission.
