14. 129 goods for less than the charges complained of. There is no measure of comparison between the two very different classes of contract. And we do not agree to the argument that 2,000 travellers, each pay- ing charges to the amount of $150 a year, are to be regarded each as engaged in a wholesale business of $300,000 annually with the rail- road. The respondents also introduced the rates on several other railroads in this State, which were all about the same with theirs, or a little more. A...nd it was not shown that any charged less, in like cases, within the State. The rates for excess on the Boston & Albany Rail- road to New York are $1, which, for the distance, is much less than the amounts charged by the Boston & Maine. The reason for this, no doubt, is the competition of the various Sound lines. This piece of testimony is not enough to prove the unreasonableness of the charge, especially as the charges on the Boston & Albany within the State correspond with those on the Boston & Maine.
