ASK A SPECIAL RATE.
Trouble BreWs IN the Northwest
Division of the Association.

CHICAGO, Feb. 26.-There seems to be
trouble brewing in the Northwest divi-
sion of the Western Passenger associa-
ton in consequence of the persistent de-
mand of the Chicago, st. Paul & Kan
sas City road, for authority to make a
special rate for the First regiment of the
Minnesota national guard from st. Paul
to Chicago on the occasion of the regi-
ment's proposed visit to New York to
take part in the national encampment
next June. A rate of $1,000 was pro-
posed by the above named load, claim
ing that the profit would be about
equal to the revenue derived from
the average train between those
points. The other Northwestern
lines objected to this on the ground
that the charge was too low for the
service. and that bad precedent would
be established by making train instead
of individual rates. BY the terms of
the agreement no member of the associ-
alton can make reduced rate without
the unanimous consent of the compet-
ing lines in the association. A majority
of the Northwestern roads are strongly
opposed to the adoption of Mr.. Bus
bark's figures, and the Chicago, st. Paul
& Kansas City can only adopt them In
violation of the agreement. 1t is quite
possible that it will decide to do this
regardless of consequences, and unless
it's competitors yield to its demand a
serious rupture in the Western Passen-
ger association is not unlikely.s

and others was begun in st. Paul yes

PENDANTS in the suit are charged with
discrimination in lumber rates against
Eau Claire and in favor of Minneapolis.
Winona, Oshkosh, La Crosse and Mil
waukee on business to Missouri river
points. The complainantS were repre-
sented by +. B. Kellogg, of the law firm
of Davis, Kellogg & Severance, and II.
ii. Hayden, of Eau Claire. Cummings
q Wright, of Des Moines, and Thomas
Hedge appeared for the down-river
lumbermen. The Chicago, st. Paul,
Minneapolis & Omaha road is repre-
scented by S. l.. Perrin, and Barton Ham
son appears on behalf of the Chicago,
Milwaukee q ST. Paul. General Man
ager Winter, of the Omaha. was first
placed on the stand. He testified that
the Omaha had sold a large amount
of pine on its land grant I'M
der contract that it should be
shipped over the Omaha road
at rate based Oh the Eau Claire rate,
thus making it fluctuatlng rate to the
extent of any fluctuatiOn that might oc-
cur in the Eau Claire rate. Mr.. Winter
states that the subject of lumber rates
was referred to George M. Bogue in
1884, and that since Mr.. Bogue made his
award the rate has been in accordance
Herewith.
The inquiry was adjourned until 2
o'clock, when Mr.. Winter was again
called.
Continuing he said that the Winopa
and La Crosse rate to Missouri river
points, to wit: Kansas City, Council
Bluffs and Omaha was one cent above.
the Chicago rate, while Eau Claire was.
6I cents above the Chicago rate, the
distance at the same time being but lit
tie further from Eau Claire. Based on
distance alone the rate from Eau Claire
was unjust to Eau Claire lumbermen.
They were compelled to pay $15.77 car
more to the same points than Winona
and La Crosse. Mr.. Winter said he was.
not we'll enough informed as to the cost
of operating the Milwaukee road to es-
innate whether the differential was just
Or not.
J. Newton Mind was then called to
testify Oh lumber manufacturing StatiS-
tics. The substance of his testimony
showed that 00.00O.OO0 feet of lumber
were manufactured annually at Eau
Claire and vicinity.
General Traffic Manager J. f. Clarke,
of the Omaha, will be the first to testify
this morning. f. B. Clarke, the former
incumbent of the Office, will also appear
as an expert, Oh behalf of the Eau
Claire board of trade. The fact devel-
Oped in the examination at Eau Claire,
that the lumbermen were losers by the
ditferential in the sum of $4,000 an
nuallY.

is now paving higher wages to its day
laborers than any city in the country.
j. f. Griffin explained to the alder
men that the reason the day laborerS
were not represented themselves was
that by reason of the poverty which
confines them to
The Lowest Glass of labor
they were either ashamed or afraid to
appear before council committee and
plead their own cause.
Aid. Rand repeated his arguments in
favor of the reduction of the hours of
labor, and was followed by Aid. Nc
Gowan, who said the city, in his opin-
ing, would lose nothing by taking such
a course. He did not think that men
who are employed six and seven months
in the year were getting any too much
it they were paid S1.75 for eight hours.
However, he did not think there was
much use of further argument, as the
members of the committee had proba-
bly, make up their minds how they
should vote.
DR.. Clark, who was the working
mems candidate for mayor at the late
election, was next introduced. lie be-
lieved that the time has come, as it did
some twenty-five years ago, when there is
an over-pius of labor by reason of i'm
proved machinery, which has taken the
places of so many thousands of hands.
NJ. J. Gill, of the cOOperS' union,
stated that to his knowledge the eight
hour system was not given fair trial
when it was introduced four years ago.
1t was commended by certain politicians
that it should be shown to be failure
and to carry out this scheme foremen
were appointed who did not keep the
men at work, so that the wards in which
the eight-hOur system was tried would
make poor showing.
M. Mogan. of the North Star club,
followed by declaring that, four years
ago, not only were the bosses appointed
purpoSely to aid in defeating
the eight-hour movement, but
a class of laborers was en-
ployed who were unfamiliar with sewer
work. Contractors, too, stood in with
the scheme, and made low bids pur-
posely to make it appear that the days
work system was more expensive to the
city than the contract system. Not
withStanding all this, work was done by
the days work system at eight hours
cheaper than by the contract system at
ten hours.
The clerk of the typographical union
said in reply TO Aid. Barrows' statement
that he could not find a dozen men in
his ward who wanted the eight-hour
system; that he would guarantee to get
the signature of fiYe-SiXtbS of the voters
of the ward to petition for eight hours.
1t was late but Ii. V. Martin con-
tlnued to call up representatives OF diff
ferent organizations one after another
including the redomitable DR.. M. p.
Finnigan, who administered a homeO-
pathic dose of eight-hour lymph, which
the aldermanic invalids were compelled
to swallow. The vote was then taken
and the motion to report in favor of the
eight-hour system was carried, Bfick
feldt, Rollins, MCGOWAN and Rand vot-
ing in the affirmative; BarrowS Brazil.
and Re YES in the negative; Gray not
voting. The report will be submitted at
to-day'S meeting of the council.

The council committee on ordinances
held little session yesterday and rec

ordinances. One is to except the old
Virgins slaughter house down on the

the general provisions of the slaughter

GoOdnow's ordinance" as it is called,
will be so amended that the scaler of

weighers subject to the approval of the
council. He will not, as now, be COM
PEELED to appoint employees of the vari-
Gus coal companies, unless he chooses

damage worth mentioning was done.
The loss will not exceed $500.
