Railroad Meeting.

San Francisco, Sept. 26.-Railroad managers of lines west of the Mis- souri river, at to-dsys meeting, practically closed their labors by adopting agreements in substance as follows: Portland and San Fran cisco to be common points-making same rates to and from the east. The Northern Pacific to make the same through rates to San Francisco, via Portland that other roads make to San Francisco direct and to the lat ter to make through rates to Portland, via San Francisco the same that the Northern Pacific makes to San Fran cisco. All lines maintain thelr pres ent regular rates, except such mod ifcations as may hereafter be mutu- ally agreed upon. A commissioner is to be appointed and empowered to settle all disputed points and to enforce penalties on any company violating the agreement. The Northern Pacific is given some ad- vantages north of the California State line, to points other than Port land & Astoria, as also are other lines given corresponding advantages to points in California other than San Francisco. Agreement goes into effect the first of next month and expires by limitation, December 21, 1884, but is terminable any time, by ninety days notice from any of the companies. Its commissioner was not selected and the appointment not yet made. It is the opinion ol railroad managers outside of the Northern Pacific representatives that the practical working arrange. ment will coniine the Northern Paci fc to it's own territory, as that road cannot afford to pay water freights between Portland and San Francisco which, under the agreement, it will be obliged to do, and in addition break bulk at Portland, if they seel to divert business to and from Cali fornia from old overland routes. Nc changes were made on through rates The Northern Pacific will adopt the same rates on through freight to anG from Portland as those which have been in existence on old roads be tween the east and San Francisco The question of control of the Allan tic & Pacific was not raised by the Southern Pacific and Atchison, To peka & Santa Fe roads, which be- tween them own nearly all the stock The roads outside of the Northern Pacific will, among themselves, con. tinue to maintain the same propor tion of distribution on through bus mess.
