CUTTING TO THE BONE.
Fare 10 st. Louis, by the Southeastern,
Reduced from sI3 to $3.50.


Reduced from sI3 to $3.50.
Quite a sensation was caused in tie city
yesterday by the distribution of hand bills
announcing that the st. Louis and South
eastern Railway lad reduced the price of
tickets from Nashville TO st. Louis to
$3.50. This was at once put down as an
other OUtcrOpping Of the old war between
the Nashville, Chattanooga and st. Louis
road and the ST. Louis and Southeastern.
Mr.. Butler, agent at this point for the st.
Louis and Southeastern, stated to "a reporter
Of tbs paper that the reduction was made
as a measure of retaliation for the course of
the other road in refusing to honor through
tickets and checks of the Southeastern after
July l. He thought his road would be
able to hold out al the low rate for a con-
siderable time and command the lions
share Of the passengers from points South
to st. Louis.
We learn from Mr.. Danley, ticket agent
Of the Nashville, Chattanooga and st Louis
road, that the course Of his road, in ceas-
ing all arrangements with the Southeastern,
was actuated by wlat the management of
his road deemed irregular practices by the
other road in the redemption Of passenger
coupons.
The Nashville and Chattanooga and st.
Louis road put on through sleepers last
