THE GRAND TRUNK LINE PREPARING FOR LONG
FIGHT.
BcsToN. July 30-The Journal says There
were no new developments here yesterday in
connection with the warfare between the differ
ent railroads except that the Grand Trunk is
making time contracts on west bound freights at
low rates. extending into winter months. THIS
TACT seems to indicate that this road at least ex-
poets the fight to be of long continuance SO far
as they are concerned. This however. may be
IN relation for time contracts, said to be given
from Chicago, upon grain and other freights at
the present low rates by some Of the other lines.
This action, followed as it will be. probably by
other lines from this and other eastern cities,
Is OF far more significance, as regards
It's effect upon the earnings of the roads.
than anything that has occurred in connection
with the passenger traffic, for the reason that
the passenger traffic has not, so far, greatly suf
tered, even at the low rates charged upon west
bound traffic. as the increase Of traffic coming
back to the east at nearly full rates partially Off
sets cheap fares in other directions, and we ques
ton whether any of the roads have increased
the number Of passenger cars run at the low
rates. Upon the other hand, to carry large
quantities of freight in both directions at
rates below cost cannot fail to have
serious effect upon the net earnings of the rail-
roads If continued over q considerable portion
of the year. The Boston and Albany and Fitch
burg and Pennsylvania reduced their rates to
Chicago to $8 yesterday, as was expected.
Whether or not there is another reduction to-
day will depend upon the rates from New York
west. as our roads will follow the rates from that
city in either direction up or down.
