The Salt Lake, Nevada & CalifOrnia---Wind
and Mhiskers-Chances for a Cut.

way people say they will commence throw
ing dirt on Monday, and that it will be Of
different kind from that which our es-
teemed morning contemporary has been
throwing at them. They were justly indig
nant at the treatment received by the sheet
yesterday, and this may have been the
reason why an attenuated Individual, with
colorless cheeks and a small note book,
bounded out of the Scott-Auerbach build

WILL THERE BE A CUTi
The question of passenger rates between
Colorado and the Missouri river are now
said to be in a critical condition. Unless
something shall be done at the meeting now
being held in Kansas city by the passenger
agents of the Colorado Railway association
to brace things up, there may be cut in
passenger rates soon, says the Denver Re
publican. Reports from Kansas city yester-
day were said to be of an assuring nature,
and the difficulty may be settled. The
charge against the Rock Island, which that
road denies, that it is selling tickets
through scalpers, has caused considerable
stir and talk in railway circles. The Rock
Island not being a member of the Colorado
association, can swing free lance If it
wishes to do so. If these rumors be true
there is no danger Of general cut in pas
senger rates on or before the 1St Of next
month.
There is also another serious rumor in
railway circles to the effect that one Of the
roads is selling tickets on commission. 1t
is said that an eastern road running into
Denver gives a commission Of s. to the
Missouri river and S. to either Chicago or
st. Louis If this report be true, and the
Republicans Informant who has good OPP
profanity to investigate these things states
that the commission is paid, a cut in pas
senger rates will naturally follow. People
will travel where they can obtain the
cheapest rates. Passenger rates are con-
sidered in shaky condition, but entire con-
fidence may be restored by the Kansas city
passenger agents meeting.

fore been outside the Isle Of Great Britain.
On leaving the custom house at New York,
he was taken to the Jersey City station of
the PENNSYLVANIA railroad and placed on the
famous Pennsylvania limited en- route to
Chicago The moment he stepped through
the vestibule entrance an expression Of sur
prise came over his face, and within a
quarter of an hour he was openly ex-
pressing his amazement at the splendor
of the wonderful train. The dining car
with its rich and spotless service, the IL
brary with choice books, the smoking room
with easy chairs, the barber shop and bath
room and luxurious sleeping cars, all
seemed to him the realization Of dream of
the orient, with the addition of the modern
electric light and steam heat The Penn
sylvania limited runs in both directions be-
tween Chicago and New York. 1t starts
