The Elkins Act was railroad legislation. The Elkins Act went after rebates of shippers and railroads. With the Elkins Act heavy fines could now be imposed both on the railroads that gave rebates and on the shippers that accepted them.
The Hepburn Act was to not allow railroads to give free passes to shippers.
