it was not an easy matter to disabuse theil
minds.
This gentlemen, who arrived in st. Paul
early Sunday morning. was here till
noon, where he left in his
car for Minneapolis. He claims
that he is for peace; that he tried to avoid
the fight, but now that he is in he will see
to it that the interests of his road are pro-
tected. Judge Chandler, who is Mr.. Mer-
rilrs right-hand man. in st. Paul, regards
the fight as the most unnecessary and fool
ish one that the ingenuity of men could
invent.
ANOTHER REDUCTION.
During the forenoon the fare to Omaha
was reduced to 81, BY the Milwaukee road,
and about the same time the same
road lowered the price of freight, as the
following circular that was posted up all
around shows:
sTen cents per 100 pounds on all freight,
regardless Of classification, via Chicago,
Milwaukee & st. Paul railway from ST.
Paul, Minneapolis ana Minnesota transfer,
to Sioux Falls, Sheldon, Winnebago City,
Shakopee, Carver, Sioux City, Mankato,
Albert Lea, Chaska, Chicago and Milwau-
kee, taking effect Monday, Nov. 20, 1882.
). G. BoYDEN, freight agent"
The Chicago, st. Paul & Omaha road
people do not care anything about the cir
cular, and assert that it was issued for no
other purpose than to make a show of
fight. They declare that it does not hurt
them in the least and that they shall pay
no attention to it.
wHKRH ARE THE OFFICERS!
Mr.. Gable, of the Albert Lea route, and
Mr.. Porter, of the Chicago, St. Paul &
Omaha road, are not in the city, and the
remark was often heard yesterday that it
was curious that these gentlemen should
be absent during the progress of such
war as the present one, and not a
few expressed the opinion that the fight was
going along well enough without them and
that they thought they had better keep
away and let it go on. Mr.. Teasdale, the
general passenger agent of the Chicago,
l.
day long fixing up rates that appear be-
low, so that he could not say anything at
all. Mr.. Hiland was found, and he was all
full of smiles, and did not think it was
worth while in such general dance as the
railroad people are now having for
anybody to get up into the corner and have
a cotillion all by themselves. There was a
kind of triumphant smile upon his face
which carried the idea to his hearers that
he regarded the Omaha road as the one
most likely to come out of the fight with a
good deal more fur on its back than the
other roads. In fact this feeling appears
to prevail throunhout the Whole Omaha
office. If that road does not win its Off
GERS Will be greatly disappointed. In this
connection it may be mentioned that
George L. Carman, Esq, of Chicago, rail-
road pool commissioner of the Northwest
IS in the city, with headquarters at the
Merchants.
ROW TICKETS ace SOLD.
Tickets on all the roads are sold subject
to rebate. The Albert Lea Office charges
SIS for a Chicago ticket and pay
back $3.50 when the train arrives in
Chicago. On the other two routes they
charge So for ticket and when the ticket
is taken up on the train the holder receives
back 81, which makes the fair 81 on the
Omaha and Milwaukee trains, and fifty
cents on the Albert Lea route.
