Just the opposite. The court ruled that that the incidental effect of intrastate rates on the interstate rates that Congress was regulating was relevant, meaning Congress could also regulate intrastate rates.

The decision states:

"by reason of its control over the interstate carrier in all matters having such a close and substantial relation to interstate commerce that it is necessary or appropriate to exercise the control for the effective government of that commerce."

No carrier, no control.
