THE SCHEME Is

THE SCHEME is BIG BUT THAT'S ABOUT ALI"
With regard to the movement among western pas
,enger agents to form wide spreading association
which shall control rates from the Missouri River TO
the Atlantic seaboard, General Passenger Agent L. T.
Farmer of tho New-YOrk Lake Erie and Western SAID
to Tribune reporter yesterday: The idea originates
with the members of tho Central Traffic Association
passenger department the western states Passenger
Association They have called a meeting OF their
PEOPLE at St Louis for September o. and have issued
invitations to Eastern passenger agents to come ana
discuss the scheme. l shall not go for one and do
not think that the proposition will find favor here
in the East, where things are working pretty smoothly
nov and no necessity exists for trying experiments
That they need a better organization in the West Is
conceded but that pace would be restored by attempt
ing to control stu larger number OF cohncuhs
I'm elests when they cannot successfully manage thoSe
hey already have. Is not self-ovdcnt'
The PROPOSED plan embraces no novel featule saw
its great scope The annual meeting OF the Geheral
Passenger Agents Association of the tinted STATES
hegns at Atlanta to-day and the subject may Oe
PREACHED there.

Chicago, Sept. 16 Special Traffic Manager Ham:
bn OF the Burlington and Northern has in store for
the members of the Western Freight Association tho
biggest surprise he has yet sprung. Tomorrow pou,
ing IN the meeting Of The association, he will an.
nounce a through tariff, NewYOrk 10 ST. Paul. on an
s5-cent basis None OF the lines thought there wa,
the least chance Of Eastern roads Joining In the pub.
licaon Of a through tariff and none of them viii
know It before tomorrow said Mr.. bamblin today
1t will be premature to tell beforehand the roads
which join US in publishing the through taft We
Will give proper notice to the association tomorrow
| see no possible objection 10 the through tarta 70
will announce, especially in view Of our reduction in
loci rates. We have fought and bed for share Of 10
through business and will get It now.'
Tho representatives of the Northwestern roads met
today further consider the situation as affected
by the burlington and Norhern's reduction In rates
between Chicago and St Paul All the roads have
decided to meet the rates but their present aim is 70
prevent the reduction from spreading TO other terri
tory resolution was adopted providing that nons
of the roads should apply the reduced rates 10 any
other points than St Paul and Minneapolis and inter.
mediate points the direct lines TO those cities.
The Illinois Central will make no change in Sioux
City rates and the Chicago, ST. Paul and Kansas City
will apply the Accent scale only y such Iowa poin
as are on its direct line to St Paul.
