The correct answer is C eliminate unfair business practices.

The Interstate Commerce Act was created in 1887 to tackle railroad monopolies. It set guidelines on how the railroad companies could do business. The act became a law which demanded "just and reasonable" rates; prohibited special rates for individual shippers; prohibited favoritism in rates for shippers, or products; prohibited pooling of traffic and established an Interstate Commerce Commission.
