THE COMPETITION OF THE LONDON AND
NORTH- WIMTESN AND GREAT NORTHERN
RAILWAYS.

Leedom and North-Wastern Railway,
Boston-station, April 3, 1858.
The London and North-Western board have to
acknowledge and dusk the deputations for their further
minute, dated March 31, from which It would appear that
the deputations consider the proposed agreement for equal
rates
'proceeds on the aromption that it is to be " perma-
neat ; ' but the obeervanee of such an agreement could not be
enured, even fora day, which is the only and sufficient
reason why the London and North-Western did not con-
tend for a longer term than three months, when that term
wee proposed by the Sheffield and Great Northern Com-
panies.
In reference to the following observations of the deputa-
tion as to the agreement of July, 1854, "the only question
upon which there is any substantial difference between the
parties," win :
"The deputation repeats now, that nothing which it does
is intended to interfere with the North Western company's
richt) to use that agreement before a parliamentary com-
mittee, in the same manner as if nothing whatever had taken
place on the part of the North Western Company in deference
to the wishes of this deputation. The deputation has
throughout conceived that while the agreement of 1854 may
be ultra vireo, yet, when considered as a question not of law,
but of morality and good faith, a committee of the holm of
parliament may feel that it wu a compact which neither
party was justified in breaking without submitting any
questions at men to the tribunal of reference which the
=t bad itself created for their determination ; and
the snit be proceeded with or not to its fullest extent,
the argument will still remain unimpaired, that any company
receding from an agreement without sufficient justification, is
not entitled to legislative assistance towards forming fresh
combinations which that agreement wee intended to prevent.
The deputation desires to reiterate that such in its view will
be the parliamentary position of the North Western COM•
psay in its opposition to any of the bills which the Sheffield
Company is now promoting, or to which it is a party, as
arising out of the severance of its connexion with the North
Western and its alliance with other companies."
The London and North Western directors are advised and
believe that any agreement or engagement on their part. to
limit the exercise of the company's legal right, would preju-
dice, perhaps fatally, their case, both in the courts and be-
fore Parliament, where they ere compelled to appear, most
unwillingly, in defence of their property against agave-Beira
and wrongful acts. As evidence, howeeer, that the London
and North Western directors do not eontemplate needless
litigation, they offer, without reservation, that in the event
of their taking any proceedings in relation to the agreement
of July, 1854, beyond those admitted by the deputation to
be necessary end proper, then the other party may at ones
deprive the London and North Western Company of any
advantage which they may be supposed to derive from a ces-
sation of the present reckless competition.
The directors of the London and North Western Company
are quite unable to ;perceive how the present ruinous rates
can be neceseary to, or can assist in, the judicial decision of
the various nutters at issue between the companies which
are all in course of determination—the continuance of those

Injurious rates cannot be juati&d on the plea that either
company can, by such means, extort concessions greater than
they can hope to obtain from the proper tribunals.
The London and North Western directors hare ordered
the rates and fen* between London and Peterborough to be
restored to the rates axed by the Great Northern (es the
company powering the shortest route), and they are willing,
and offer, without any stipulation (except that the rates akidl
be the same by both routes), at once, and unconditionally, to
restore the ra es and fares at ail other points where the com-
panies ere in competition, to those in operation prior to the
present contest, or to such other scale, and for whatever
period, the deputations shall consider reasonable. The con-
tinuance, therefore, or cessation, of the present reckless com-
petition, rests with the ShellieJd and Great Northern Com-
panies.
