A HOT FIGHT.
Western Railroads Recklessly Cut
Down Rates.

CHICACo, Feb. 4.
The first slash was made today into the
Des Moines freight rates, reduced early by
the Rock Island to first class % cents;
second, 20; third Is; fourth, i2 l-2; fifth,
10 and class A, :. This is reduction of 60
per cent. from established rates s per cent.
below those of Monday. A drive was made
against the St. Paul & Kansas City road.
The Des Moines rate is too low for the Bur
lington, which announces that it is out of the
Des Moues business. Rock Island Mil
waukee & st. Paul made the latest cuts. The
basis of through rates to all Junction points
on the Union Pacific in Nebraska, is much
against the will of the latter road. which was
anxious to preserve the local rates, but by
virtue of the old tripartite agreement yet in
force, was compelled to yield and partici-
pate this carries cut rates all over Nebras
ka. The fight got to hot for the St Louis &
Kansas City roads aud they agreed to make
no reduction below the rates put in effect
Monday forenoon.

THE FREIGHT WAR
Extends Among the East Bound Rail-
way Lines.

CHICAGO, Feb. I.
The east bound Chicago railway lines are
badly demoralizing export rates, it costing
no more, and in some instances less, to ship
grain and provisions from this city to Liver
pool and European ports, than to New York.
The presidents and general managers have
become seriously alarmed for fear trouble
will grow out of it, and a conference will be
held on Friday at New York, to reach some
agreement whereby the rates will be re-
stored.
The consolidated Chicago east bound lines
today agreed to advance the rates on dressed
beef, from Chicago to Boston. from 81 to 20
cents per hundred. The Chicago & Grand
Trunk will be permitted to continue TO charge
60 cents to Boston, via the Montreal route.
