DOWN THEY GO AGAIN
The Burlington Makes an In
ciSive Cut in the Chi
cago Rates.
Just Think Of It: Three Dol
lars From Chicago to
st. Paul.
The Milwaukee Meets the
Cut, and Other Roads
Will Follow.
Every Probability That the
Rates Will Go to an
Even Dollar.

The passenger rate war is progressing
merrlly. The rates to western points
are now lower than they have been for
years. The Burlington & Northern
yesterday gave notice of a further re-
duction in the first-class fare rate from
Chicago to st. Paul to So. which is 50
lower than the second-class fare. No
sooner did the Chicago, Milwaukee &
st. Paul officials hear of this than they
Omaha and Kansas City, and rate of
$500 to Sioux City. These rates apply
in both directions. They also make a
frSt-class rate of S. to st. Paul.
with So as second-class. The rates
from st. Paul to Chicago
remain at 81 and Sc, but are
liable to drop at any minute. There is
not the least doubt that the other roads
will meet the latest cut of the Burling-
ton, and it may not be long before the
promised 81 rate to Chicago is reached.
A telegram from Chicago reports that
the meeting called by General Passen-
ger Agent Sebastian. of the Rock
Island, was without results. There was
not full representation Of the inter-
ested roads, and those that responded to
the call were not ready to adopt MIR.
Sebastian's plan of advancing Missouri
river rates. After some profitless dis
cussion. the meeting adjourned without
action. 1t is now doubtful if the Rock
Island will carry out it's intention of
making $3.50 rate to Kansas City and
Council Bluffs against 50 by the other
lines, even to protect its revenue on in
termediate local traffic.

HUNTINGTON BALKED.
The Houston 6 Texas Freeze-Out
Game StOpped.


New YORK, May 14.-Justice O'Brien,
of the supreme court, has decided In
favor of the plaintiffs in the suit of
Michael Gernsheim & Co. against Fred
erick P. Olcott, as president of the Cen
trail Trust company, and others. This
suit was brought to prevent the issue of
new stock to the Houston and Texas
Railroad company, on the allegation that
the scheme was one for the benefit of G.
p. Huntington and his associates in the
Southern Pacific company. The feature
to Whice GernSheim 81 Co. objected as
stockholders was that which involved a
tax of $75 per 100 shares. if they
wished to remain in the company. The
tax, the plaintiffs claimed, was simple
game of freeZe-Out. inasmuch as they
had already paid their interest, and as
it was provided that the Southern Pa
cific could take unclaimed stock at a
much more favorable rate. The case
has been in the courts many months,
and was recently amended after it was
discovered that the proposed assess
ment was not made with authority.
The amended complaint charges that
the assessment was not made by the
Central Trust company as required by
the agreement for the reorganization of
the Houston & Texas Central Rail
way company, that it included excess
siye charges, and that it was wrongfuIIv
and fraudulently contrived and
made in bad faith as part of the
scheme and plan to bar out the pre-
sent stockholders and to enable the
Southern Pacific company to acquire
the entire stock on the payment simply
of the amount required to be paid to the
first mortgage bondnolders for interest
and bonus. and the expenses of re-
organization they claim they were in
Inundated IN the interest of Huntington.

ON A PAYING BASIS.
Canadian Pacific Affairs in Flour
ishing Condition.

MONTREAL, May 14.-The annual
meeting of the Canadian Pacific Railway
company was held to-day. The old
board of directors was reelected, with
the exception of r. V. Martinsen, in
whose place Gen. Samuel Thomas, of
New York, was elected. The report of
the past year showed: Gross earnings,
Sl5,O3O,66O; working expenses. S9,024,-
COL; net earnings, s6,006,059; fixed
charges, $3,779, 1872; surplus, $2.226, 92S:
surplus for year, after payment OF sup
Elementary dividend, 81, $40, 026S surplus
from previous years, 1926. 423. max
ing total surplus carried forward,
81 ,903,3 $50. Increase i'll gross earnings
over previous year. S1.335, lis; decrease
in working expenses, $500, 359; increase
in profits, 81, $50, 2S5. The report at
tributes the decrease in working ex-
penses to the large expenditure made
for Improvements during the past few
wears, and indicates the intention Of the
directors to continue the improvements
with view to the further cheapening
of the cost Of operation, and expresses
the belief that the proportion OF
working expenses to gross earnings will
soon be brought below 65 per cent. The
directors, in the report, express their
intention to continue the dividends at
the rate of per cent, and their belief
that there Will be no difficulty in main
tanning this rate. The report expresses
the belief that there is no good ground
for anticipating hostile legislation at
Washington, and that body like the
congress of the United States is not
likely to be moved to such course by
false or exaggerated statements con-
corning the actions or policy Of the
company enimating from the parties
whose sole object is to check
legitimate competition. The share
holders have authorized the
directors to proceed gradually and as
circumstances might require with the
construction or acquisition of several
short local lines. The land sales for
the year were 1875, 100 acres for $731, 100,
as against 1852, $40 acres for $553,910 in
1883. Referring to the completion of a
line from Toronto to Detroit, the re-
port says: The company has joined the
Wabash, the Flint q Pere Marquette,
and the Detroit, Lansing aud Northern
railways in the building of a
fine terminal station in the
most commanding position in the
city of Detroit. The great system OF
the Wabash will afford the lOng-needed
independent connection with Chicago,
st. Louis and other Western and South
western points, and the connection
with the important Michigan railways
above named. which together embrace
$50 miles, will be of very great value.
The meeting was unanimous through
out. At subsequent meeting of the
board William G. Van Horne was re-
elected president, and Sir George Ste
phen, Sir Donald A. Smith and Richard
r. Angus were reelected as members
of the executive committee.

and in the seventh was hurt, and had
to give up to Hardness, who did
little better. Selbel did very good
work for the home team, and the hits
made off him were scattered and did not
avail much. Minneapolis got two runs
in the first inning. Carroll led off with
a base hit, and stole second. Elmer
Foster did the same thing. and Carroll
scored on Mineekan's sacrifice, and
Foster on Hudson's safe hit. Foster
again made the round in the third. and

inning, with man on third and second,
he struck SWEET and Gumbert out.
Gumbert was poorly supported, and in
the absence of Kelly the home team
played as if without head. Through
some misunderstanding no regular UNI

TOWARD THE NORTH POLE.
The Rudson's Bay Railway Is to
Be Built.

Special to the GLOBE.
WINNIPEG, Man., May 1.-THE organ
of the Hudson's Bay Railway company
in this city has the following reference
tonight to the projected line, which
everybody takes to mean that the road
is actually going ahead: ''At present
writing it is not known what are the
terms of the arrangement being made
between the Ottawa government and
the Hudson Bay Railway company, but
that they are of nature which will IN
sure the construction of the road this
year. as far as Saskatchewan there is no
doubt whatever. The public will also
be glad to be assured that the arrange
ment and operations of the present year
mean that the work of construction VIII
be continued until the road is completed
to the bay. We are not aware OF the
exact reliance that is being placed on
local aid, but more is not expected than
the province will cheerfully give, and
it will be sufficient to guarantee the
early completion of this great enter
prise. Without, therefore, being In
position to announce the details of the
company'S arrangement, we can with
confidence congratulate the people OF
Manitoba and the territories on the GER
tain prospect of the completion of the
Huds0n's Bay railway in the very near
future-aS soon, in fact, as capital ana
enterprise can accomplish IT."

CONDUCTORS MAY sTIKE.
They Expunge an Obnoxious Con
stitutiOnal Clause.

ROCHESTER,, N. z, May IA The gen.
eral convention of the Order of Railway
Conductors decided by very decisive
vote to eliminate from its constitution
the clause prohibiting strikes. There
has been a hot fight on this point, and
nobody believed that the amendment
would be carried by such sweep
ing majority until the vote was
taken. The amendment was OPP
posed by the Eastern dele
gates and Grana Chief Wheaton was
outspoken against it. 1t was on this
issue that he stood as candidate for re-
election. He will not withdraw from
the contest for the position. The
amendment was discussed yesterday
and to-day for about two hours on each
day. and when this afternoon it was
put to a vote it was adopted, 210 to 65.
1t looks now as though New York city
might be selected for the place of next
session, but nothing definite can be said
on that point. The officers will probably
be elected Saturday.

The Kansas City ochres and the ST.

The Kansas City Ochres and the St.

the carnage was awful. Several men,
bers of the st. Paul team we're killed
outright, and the rest were so badly in

displayed by the Spasmodics. but the

Just; it was cruel; it was brutal; but it

too weak to use in painting a. picture of
so terrible an event, and the veil is
drawn in silent sorrow:
