Supreme Court of the United States January 10, 1910, 289 (Baltimore & Ohio Railroad v. United States Ex Rel. Pitcairn Coal Co.)

delivered the opinion of the court.

To decide the merits of this cause will require us to determine the legality of the regulations of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, by which that company distributed cars to coal mines along the line of its road in case of car shortage.
