A KNorTY PROBLEM FOR GENERAL PASSENGER
AGENTS TO SOLVE.

A KNorTY PROBLEM FOR GENERAL PASSENGER
AGENTS TO SOLVE.
One of the most important questions 10 come ne
fore the conference Of trunk line passenger agents m
tho passenger department OF the Central Iranic AS
ISOLATION at Crcsson Penn, Thursday, Will be the
traffic Interchange agreement adopted by the lines
east of the Mississippi River. 1t requires spcciai
attention in view Of tho action taken by some OF inc
roads in placing on sale at their Offices tickets Of the
issue of the Chicago and Alton Railroad The Chicago
and Alton stubbornly refused year ago to assent
TO the agreement of the trunk lines by which COM
missions on passenger business were abolished, al
though nearly every other important road asscnted
TO IT, A short time ago the Pennsylvania Company
Dimes west OF Pittsburg placed on sale the tlchc'
issues OF several western roads that had not OBJ
served tho trunk line agreement, without consultation
with the Central Traffic Association. The Bee Line
followed this action with similar step, including the
Alton in the roads favored and alleged that IL had
been left free by the unauthorized action OF the
Pennsylvania Company. Tho Baltimore ana ONO
then placed the Atoms tickets sale, claiming that
IL was compelled to do so in elfdcfence.
This situation brings the whole question of the pay
ment of commissions again TO the front. 1t Is a
difficult one TO settle. Many OF tho roads with de-
fcicnt accommodations longer routes find 1t almost
impossible TO secure traffic without resort to stimu-
lating agents with commissions on the sale OF tickets
Since the trunk line Interchange agreement was en-
forced it has been executed with more or less IT.
regularity, and mutual jealousies among the lines
have prevented harmonious operations inside and
outside tho courts for litigation has been Invoked by
some of the lines which refused TO accept the re-
Qurements of the trunk lines AZ The Same tne u is
conceded that a return TO the system of paying com
missions would revive all the evils formerly com
planned of and tend to dlsorganze passenger rates
that have been fairly well maintained. Kalirpad
men here are entirely at TO the chances OF the
outcome of the Cresson deliberations on this point
