ON PETITION FOR REHEARING

RONEY, Circuit Judge:

The Illinois Central Railroad, a plaintiff below and cross-appellant in this Court, has petitioned for a rehearing on that portion of our judgment affirming the denial of prejudgment interest. We held that the demurrage recovered was "fairly a penalty" so that denial of prejudgment interest was not error. Illinois Central R.R. Co. v. Texas Eastern Transmission Corp., 533 F.2d 272
