 ALTERNATIVE APPLICATION OF COMBINATION RATES. 



This tariff names rates to certain rate zones comprising the territory east of the Rocky Mountains to 

 Atlantic Seaboard, inclusive, the through rates named to each rate group being generally less than the through 

 rates named to the next more distant rate group, and therefore, the aggregate of rates applying to and from 

 intermediate points may be less than the through rates named herein. To illustrate^- 



(a) The tariff rate applying to a point on or west of the edge of one rate group in combination with the 

 local rate applying thence to a destination in a higher rate group may aggregate less than the through rate 

 named herein to the higher rate group. 



(b) Similarly, the aggregate of the rate applying to an intermediate junction point (such as Chicago, 

 East St. Louis, 111., Memphis, Tenn., New Orleans, La., -Omaha, Neb., St. Paul, Duluth, Minn., etc.) and 

 the rate applying thence to destination may be less than the published through rates. 



As it is recognized that the charges from point of origin through to destination should not exceed the ag- 

 gregate of rates applying to and from intermediate points, the following alternative rate provision will apply: 



*If the aggregate of intermediate rates named in tariffs lawfully on 

 file with Interstate Commerce Commission, via the route over which the 

 shipment moves, makes less than the joint through rates contained in this 

 tariff, such aggregate of rates will be applied. (See Note.) 



U3XOTE. In arriving :it the aggregate of intermediate rates, the combination rules as published in Tariff I. C. C. 

 No. I". S. 1, issued by \V. J. Kelly, Agent, must be observed.
