AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS.
Affafis of the Transcontinental Association
Question of Dffferentials


CHICAGO, July 25.-'rhe following state
ment of the situation of affairs in the Trans
continental Railway Association was made
to a reporter for the Associated Press, this
afternoon, by very prominent member of
the association: "The published reports in
the morning papers as To the terms asked
by the Canadian Pacific, and the terms of
tered by the Southern Pacific, i'm the matter
Of differentials. Is inaccurate. The fact is,
that at Yesterdays meeting the question of
differentials was referred by the general
meeting to the executive committee for
consideration and report, and by that
committee it was referred to a sub-cOmmit-
see of four members. This committee made
n unanimous report but it was not entirely
satisfactory to either the Southern Pacific
or the Canadian Pacific, and it is now held
under consideration by the executive COM
mittce. In the meantime this committee
has been in session during the forenoon
considering some of the thirty-three other
subjects which are before it. 1t will be in
session again this afternoon. as also will
the general meeting and the freight and
passenger committees. You may say that
the association IS not going to pieces.
There is a feeling in the association. and it
has only one or two exceptions, that there
should be no differentials; that each road
should accept its favorable or unfavorable
physical conditions and compete for the
business at equal rates. At the same time,
In the interests of harmony, a small differ
entail will be conceded"
