THE WESTERN PASSENGER SITUATION:

The troubles Of tho Western roads as far as
passenger rates are concerned are practically IN
changed although there is faint prospect OF the
difficulties being ultimately adjusted In that depart
ment Of the traffic. Commissioner Person. OF the
Trunk Line Association, said yesterday AS lar as
am informed, only the Baltimore and ONO ana inc
Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroads among
the trunk lines have resumed the sale OF passenger
tickets over the Chicago and Alton road, and do not
think that the action If those two lines VIII have any
great effect upon the general situation The officials
of the Baltimore and Ohio resumed the sale OF tickets
by this route on account Of the action taken by some
of their competitors members OF the Central Traffic
Association, and because they did not deem IL adj
visablc TO pursue different policy on that portion OF
their line which Is east Of Pttsburg from that which
they had In operation west OF that point These ar
rangements are individual In their character and 1t is
not probable that tho action Of two lines will
materially affect the stuatlon'
The passenger agents of the trunk lines Will confer
with representatives Of the Central Traffic Association
at CrcssOn Springs. Penn to-day George A. Daniels
vice chairman, will head the delegates of the Central

Tho condition of westbound freight rates remains

the occasional reports Of fresh Irregularities, but they
have found nothing to warrant changing the current
