NEW FRAUDS IN WESTERN RATES.

Chicago. Feb. I5.-Eastbound freight rates from
all poIuts in the West arc again IN a bad state, and
the opinion IS that nothing De done to improve
the situation except TO make general reduction IN
east-bound through rates The present demorahzatioh
IS due to the manipulation OF rates by Eastern ana
Western roads This is accomplished by billing
false invoicing issuing fraudulent expense DIS ana
by other irregular practices. The worst state vi
affairs exists at Peoria and is said to be due TO The
peculiar action which is reported TO have been taken
by the Peoria Board Of Trade. The Board advised
shippers at that point 10 coninc th9h shipments 10
such roads did not allow their way billing 10
be examined and manipulated by the Inspectors OF the
Central Traffic Association The lines west of Peoria
are members of the Western Fregh, Association and
are governed by its rules but Of the lines east
of there are not members Of the association and can
do as they please Through the combination OF the
Peoria shippers, the lines not in the Central
Traffic Association get nearly all the
through traffic from western points, and by manipu
atng the jont through rates cut of over four cents
per 100 pounds to New-York Is effected. Certain
railroad companies running cast from Peoria having
withdrawn authority for making inspectors eXsih'
nations Mr.. Blanchard has directed the Inspector
not to enforce the regulations Of inspection via any
of the roads from that city until an agreement can
be reached governing all. At the same time, the
regulations Of the Central Traffic Association are
enforced at Chicago, thus preventing tho Chicago
roads from competing with Peoria or other western
junction points, where the same condGn OF a1 ,n
pravails The result is that little grain from The
West goes through this city The trouble IS that the
present leave too great margin Oh pIoit anu
Consequently the Indirect and weak lines are afforded
en- opportunity of making money by cutting ana
they are avs hat he CHICAGO ST. Paul Minneapolis
and Omaha road has violated the agreement OF the
western Freight Association bv making rate IL
cents hundred pounds less than the tarif on 800 cars
OF grain shin ped from Omaha to Duluth. The rate
charged was the same that is I'm effect from Omaha 10
