Just now that it Is not worth fighting over, and the
strong lines not particularly disturbed by the cut

Is being watched with keen interest. The order 10 re
store east bound lake and rail rates goes into effect
next Monday and the opinion seems 70 be pretty gen

has been strengthened by the action Of the St. Paul
lines yesterday in agreeing TO advance -four rates from
ST. Paul and Minneapolis 10 Eastern points, taking
effect August % The rates will be 80 cents TO New

and the volume OF traffic will be 50 large from this time
