TIE PASSENGER WAR.

There were rutnors atloat yesterday that the
regular Eastern lines from this city would
meet the cut rate to Boston made last Tues
day by the Grand Trunk, and that they would
also make q corresponding reduction in tile
passenger rate to New York. In
quiry at the various offices, however,
failed to confirm the rtmors. The
officials of the roads enphatically denied
uiat any reduction in rates was contemplated.
They said there was no reason why ti1ay
should go below the rates charged at present,
as they got all the business they wanted mt
said, went out just rs full Us they Gid before
the Grand Trunk commenced to. sell S.,
tickets. They claimed that the business
which the Grand Trunk was getting was such
as would not go but for the SIS rate, and as
