Where Relief is Looked For.

Inquiry shows that among railroad men there
is a belief that some good is to come out of the
formation of what is known as the Central Traf-
fc Association. What this agreement will cover
was referred to some weeks ago. 1t may be well
to briefly restate its purport at this time. The
Central Traffic Association includes the railroads
operating west of the trunk-line termini, east
of the Mississippi river, and north of the Ohio
river. It's object is two-fold, first to make and
maintain reasonable rates, and second to fairly
distribute the freight and passenger traffic which
may properly be considered competitive. For
this latter purpose sectional pools are to be
formed at Chicago, Peoria. ST. Louis, Cincinnati,
indianapolis, Toledo, Detroit and such other
points as may be agreed upon. The tonnage at
each pooled point is to be divided so as to insure,
if possible, it's fiscal percentage of each class of
freight. A board of managers and a commits
sioner are provided for, with powers usally dele
gated to such bodies. Controversies and failures
to agree are to be settled by arbitrator. This,
in brief, is the compact. The idea of organizing
this association originated with M. K. Ingalls,,
president Of the c., l., st. l.. & c. He at once
found an earnest supporter of his scheme in c.
%. Henderson, general manager of the l., b. d
w. j. I'll. Devereux. president of the Bee-line
system, is, as well, a strong advocate for the as
ISOLATION.
