CHICAGO ROADS.
They Do Not Stand Well With
Shippers Generally.

CHICAGO, March 3O.-If east-bound
freight rates are not being cut how does
it happen that the so-called weak lines
manage to get away with the bulk of
the business every week? This Is the
question that is bothering the traffic
officials of the strong lines. The state
ment of east-bound shipments for last
week shows that the proportion of the
business secured by the Nickel Plate
was just double that which fell to the
Lake Shore, and that the Chicago &
Erie also made better showing than
the leading Vanderbilt lines. 1t
would be hard to convince the
Lake Shore. the Michigan Central
and the Fort Wayne roads that at equal
rates they could not command the lions
share of the traffic. and as their posi-
tion seems reasonable, it is no wonder
that considerable credence is given to
| the reports of rate manipulations on
seaboard shipments. The Chicago &
Grand Trunk continues in the lead of
all competitors, but nobody seriously ac-
| cuseS that road of cutting rates, as the
| secret of its success is we'll known to all
who have watched its course in relation
to local shippers. 1t is the policy of the
Chicago & Grand Trunk to take sides
with its patrons in any controversy
| oetWeeH tleln anu tDo IdllIOduS,
and the result is that no Chi
| cago road stands as we'll with
shippers generally. 1t is just now
reaping ifs reward for the position it
took last summer, when, by espOusing
the cause of the shipp ers, it succeeded
in killing the non-negotiable bill of lad
ing which the Eastern roads tried to
force into general use. The shipments
of -four, grain and provisions from Chi
cago to the seaboard by the lines in the
Central Traffic association last week
! aggregated 44,3SS tons, against A, $50
for the preceding week, an increase of
1,O5S tons. and against 59,629 for the
same period last year, a decrease of 15,-
24l tons. The Vanderbilt lines carried
81 per cent of the business, the Pennsyl-
vania lines 16 per cent, the Chicago &
Grand Trunk q, the B. &. o. per cent.

is evidently a case of suicide, as the
man placed tie weapon inside his
mouth and sent bullet crashing into
his brain. The coroner's inquest re-
vealed nothing as to the mans identity
beyond the fact that his clothing bore
the trademark of an Evansville, Ind,
tailor. In his pockets were a gold watch
and 80 cents in money.
