NOT YET ADJUSTED

Until the Consent of the Trunk
Lines Is Obtained Rates Cannot
be Equalized.
New YORK, Aug. 16.-The committee
appointed by the immiarant clearing
house recently to adjust the rates in
connection with the recent cut i'm fares
to Chicago, met at 346 Broadway TODAY
and took action in matters of routine
and detail. CIV. Bullen. of the freight
department of the trunk lines. said that
no advices had been received from
Chicago relative to the meeting there
for the purpose of adjusting transcon-
tinental rates. The consent of the
trunk lines would be a necessity to
make action valid. The practice of
transcontinental lines making a rate
less than the rate from San Francisco
to Chicago, was not necessarily contrary
to the interstate law. The Interstate
commission had once made ruling al
lowing this for ninety days. After the
close of the ninety days 1t was gener-
ally understood that the allowance
would continue.

CHICAGO, Aug. 16.-James Charlton,
general passenger agent of the Chicago
d Alton road. whose peremptory re-
fusal to cooperate with the trunk lines
in cutting emigIant rates created such
stir in passenger circles last week, has
received another letter from S. F. Pier
son, of the trunk line association. The
latter endeavOrs to explain the situation
more fully than before, but only sue
ceeds in reciting his former proposition
that the Western roads pay the trunk
lines commission for every emigrant
ticket sold over those roads, with the
understanding that such commission
will be paid to the emigrant, thus giving
him the lowest net fare charged by the
carrier. Mr.. Charlton again refuses 10
enter into such all arrangement, and de-
clares the Chicago IL Alton will reduce
first and second class fares if any of the
Western roads accede to the terms pro-
posed by the trunk line association.

The Northern Pacific Makes De-
cided Slash in Rates.

Some time ago the Northern Pacific
and Manitoba Dads agreed upon excur-
sion rates to Great Falls, Helena and
Butte at S25 for the round trip. Shortly
after this rate was fixed upon the Mani
toba people found an objectional article
in regard to the matter, published in
Montana paper, and, believing that it
originated i'll the Northern Pacific office
iD this city, put the rate to Great Falls
at $40, which was cut of SIS, notwith-
standing the Northern Pacific people de-
clared their ignorance of the origin of the
article and denied all responsibility lin
regard to it, the Manitoba maintained
its cut. 1he result was that the North
ern Pacific agreed to carry passengers
at $40 of cent per mile for the round
trip to all points in Minnesota, Dakota
and Eastern and Middle Montana. This
is a sweeping and important cut. as
will be seen by All illustration. The
old agreed rates to Grand Forks were
50 for round trip; undsr the new rates
they will be S5.54. TO Fergus Falls the
old rates were s5.63, and under the new
rates they are 1926.
