drawbacks on treights. II was indicated
that the Baltimore & Ohio would pursue

Ing transportation and cooperate with
other lines in all legitimate measures o!
economy. II was urged by tho Baltimore
6 Ohio management that the first
step In the direction OF complete
reform was TO abolish the fast freight
lines now in use on three northern trunk
lines, viz: the Pennsylvania, Erie and
New York Central. 1t was claimed that
under this system independent organiza.

latter, would enable them to maintain al.
ways reasonable tariffs. The officials Of
the trunk lines named expressed them
