Threatened Rate WAR,

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Aug. 4.-The excur-
siOns of the Blaine clubs to New York are
upsetting the calculations of the Eastern
lines and will, no doubt, precipitate pas
senger war. The Chicago & Atlantic is
making the rate east Of Chicago, which is
$3.50 for the round trip, making the rate
$2I.6O from Kansas City for the round trip,
good for twenty days. As the Chicago 4
Atlantic refused to sign the Central Traffic
Association agreement, its action in cut
ting the rate in two in the middle is Great
ing considerable CONSERVATION among the
other lines. Just what the outcome will be
is not known, but it is possible that it may
lead to a cut in rates, with serious cOnse-
quences for all the lines interested.
