 In regards to '''interstate commerce''':
-*The [[railroad]] [[monopolies]] had the power to set prices, exclude competitors, and control the [[market]] in several [[geographic]] areas. Although there was competition among railroads for long-haul routes, there was none for short-haul runs. Railroads discriminated in the prices they charged to [[passenger]]s and [[shipper]]s in different localities by providing [[rebate]]s to large shippers or buyers. These practices were especially harmful to American farmers, who lacked the shipment volume necessary to obtain more favorable rates. <ref>http://www.ourdocuments.gov/doc.php?flash=true&doc=49</ref>
