Description

Price Brothers raised small onions, and leaving part of the growing foliage on them tied them into bundles and shipped them in crates to others to plant out and grow to maturity. American Railway Express Company carried them, having a published rate on "Onions, Green," and a higher rate for "Plants, Strawberry and Vegetable." The onions were tendered for transportation under the former classification, but were charged for under the latter. A verdict was directed for Price Brothers for the difference, and the express company appeals, relying for reversal on two points only, to wit: That relief could be had only before the Interstate Commerce Commission, and that the evidence did not demand the verdict.
