This action was brought by the respondent against the petitioner in the Circuit Court of Ripley County, Missouri, to recover treble damages under ?? 9985, 9990, Revised Statutes of Missouri, 1919. The petitioner is a common carrier of freight and passengers for hire by railroad in Missouri and other States. Section 9985 contains the following: "It shall be unlawful for any such common carrier to make or give any undue or unreasonable preference or advantage to any particular person . . . in the transportation of goods . . . or to subject any particular person . . . to any undue or unreasonable prejudice or disadvantage with respect to such transportation . . ." Section 9990, among other things, makes the carrier liable to any person injured by a violation of the above quoted provision for three times the amount of damages sustained.
