ABOLITION oF RERATEs.

The granting of rebates to the purchasers
Of overland railroad tickets, to induce travel
over particular lines, has been q feature in
the railroad passenger business in tais city
for some time past Competing. roads bid
against each other for patronage by granting
rebates on tickets purchased, and the
amounts so granted have gradually increased
so that very little of the money paid remained
to the Eastern lines, which were principally
bidding for custom. As high as S25 has been
paid as rebate on third-clsss tickets, and
recentlp the rebate on frst-class tickets has
reached $40. Efforts have bean made by
local agents of Eastern lines to put a stop to
this practice, but they have proved ineffsct-
ual. At the recent railroad conference in
this city, the lines west of the Missouri
agreed to abolish the practice, and the trunk
lines east of Chicago have now entered into q
similar agreement. A meeting of the San
Francisco agents of these lines was held last
night, at which it was determined to abolish
rebates and commissions. and an agreement
is being drawn up which will require con-
siderable sum to be deposited as forfeit if the
arrangement ia not adhered to. There will
thus only remain the lines between Omaha,
st. Louis and Kansas City and Chicago
which are free to grant rebates. At the con-
clusion of the meeting last night, the follow
ing circular was prepared for circulation
among other local agents of Eastern lines:
After closing Of the Central Pacific ticket office
this Qast) evening, the lines represented by the
undersigned will not participate in any commits
sons reductions or rebates of any nature, or give
any passes account of overland business via their
respective lines; grant any privileges tolholders
of any class OF tickets other than the contracts of
such tickets provide for.
We shall not be party to, aid in any way, in the
organization Of excursions, and beg to request that
you do not wori: up excursion, to points beyond
the termini of your ine shall be compelled to
oppose such excursions in every possible way.

FREIGHT CHARGES.
Railroad Commissioners Consider the Pro-
posed Reduction,

Especial to the REcORD-USIoN.
SAN Francisco, October 2S1.-At o'clock
this afternoon the Railroad Commissioners
held meeting for the purpose OF considering
the order introduced by Mr.. Carpenter at the
last meeting. This order is designed to re.
duce the freight rates on the Central and
Southern Pacific Railroads by transferring
certain kinds of material and goods from one
class to another, thus giving present hrst-
class goods the benefit of second-clsss rates,
and 80 on. Such 8 process, it is claimed,
would reducs the rates of freight charges on
the two railroads to which the order applies
from % 60 35 per cent. Of the present sched-
rle tariff. Besides, if the railroad companies
will file A written waiver of the requirements
of the statute, the order will entirely obviate
the making of new schedule, either by the
Commission or the corporations as the goods
NAV be transferred to another class by noti-
icatiou of agents and by circular. The
principal element in the operation OF the Or
der ia the consent of the railroads to filing
waiver and enforcing the new rates without
an officially prepared schedule, the duty of
making which is by law imposed upon the
Commission. A new schedule, however.
would fill a volume of 1000 pages, and the
Carpenter order is a short cut to reach results.
Secretary Andrus has, since last meeting,
figured out some Of the reductions made by
the order of the Southern Pacific and Ore
gon division of the Central The main line
of the Central was not touched. owing to
the fact that the change of classes did not
make 30 large or 30 uniform reduction. The
tables were presented at the meeting of the
Commission this afternoon. A synopsis to
illustrate the operation of the order was taken
at random from the mass of figures, the per-
centage being for distances varying from ten
to fifty miles. The first table shows the re-
ductions on the Southern Pacific from San
Francisco south to Yuma in cents per 1900
pounds mot carload lots). The operations of
the order in transferring an article from the
first to the second class is shown by the per-
centage of difference, which constitutes the
reduction. In the third and fourth classes it
is the heaviest. The order places household
goods, furniture, farming utensils and live
stock in the fourth class. Transferring it
from the third shows the reduction. Fence
wire, iron pipe, sheet iron, nails, etc., are
taken from second and placed in the third
class. Blscksmith's coal takes the fifth class.
The table does not show the reductions on
cereals, which is % per cent. nor on four,
which is 25 per cent.
