CHAIRMAN WALKER
Of the Interstate Commerce
Railway Association
ON THE CONDITION OF AFFAIRS
Among the Roads-Annual Report of the Inter.
State Commerce Commission-Gould and
Fred Ames interviewed.

NEW YORK, Dec. s. The Journal of
Finance to-day made public for the first
time lengthy letter which was recently
state Commerce Railway association, to
various railroad presidents on the general
condition of railway affairs and plan for
reform in the present methods. He says
the present legislative attitude of Congress
and the states is injurious, bit the railroad
difficulties are not wholly due to that
cause. Competition as it now exists among
carriers is ruinous, is simply war. The
situation, he says, pleases the I'm
rejecting public and the nesec-
sary inference is that the railroads
are playing their adversaries game. He
refers to the fact that during the past
fifteen years about one third of the railway
mileage in the United States has been re-
organized or passed through foreclosure
proceedings. He does not believe this
suicidal process is beyond control, but says
radical changes are required.
He points out that wars in passenger and
| freight rates are brought about by scalping,
secret agreements, rebates, ETC., and says
that 80 per cent. of all tariff changes made
are reduction. He assures them of sys
tematic passenger rate-cutting and calls il
competition gone mad. Such wild and reck
less methods are not in the interest OF the
public and are ruinous to railway systems
He calls on the presidents to recognize the
essential unity of railway interests and
make new treaty based on disarmament
He says the first few months of life of the
Inter state Commerce Railway association
is commonly referred to as perioC
| of comparatively successful administration
among western roads and it was really
armed neutrality, every line maintaine
it's fighting force fully armed and equipped
Lines should rid themselves of the ma
! chinery for rate-cutting, either open o.
secret The fundamental principles o
the association should be concen
tration, authority and publication o
interests. A traffic division should contro
the actual handling OF business; rat
division should have the exclusive right t
contract with connecting roads in respec
to exchange of business, division of join
rates and with shippers at all points out
side the association territory; joint agen
cies should replace innumerable separat
, agencies now in vogue. This might b
extended ultimately to competiv
points upon liues of members
In the work of the traffic divisio
3 also might be very properly embraced tn
clearing house idea under which it woul
e receive copies of all billing, adjust account
5 between companies, settle all loss an
e damage claims, etc, Under euch q concer
: tration of methods the danger of rate cut
Y ting, either secret or open, would be sui
: Stantially ended not revenues of every lin
t protected and the public better served.

You had no friends across the way"
But have fren ds-dear friends" cried,
With quick remorseful thought OF home.

To greet me II go or come.
How dear they are, cannot say!
Nor how it cheers me day by day
To see across the valley far
How strong aud beautiful they arei
"And you should see the robes they wear
Their mantels thick and soft OF green,
Then "a nbow-tinted, yet more fair,
Or ermine wraps w tn silver sheen.
But yet think love them best
When, all in somber shadows drest,
Their broken ranks in silence lie
Beneath the solemn midnight SKY.
Sometimes misty curtain drawn
Beneath us hides these friends from me;
But when at sunset ii is gone,
Dear child, how fair the sight see
For where the nearer ranks divide,
The gates OF glory open wide
And 10 /, in that uneartby light
The farther hills TRANSPORTED quite;
While yet another and another
Peeps DER the shoulder of his brother,
And smiles through rosy uIst, and seems to say,
Heaven lies beyond us-such little way"

"a For any one as old as you:
And when Pm old and you are dead,
Perhaps I'll so and see them too.

Children across the street from me:
And nod to Will. and play peep-bo
