RATES ARE DEMORALIZED.
SEVERAL WESTERN RAILROADS
WITHDRAW
From; the Provisional Agreement
for the Maintenance of Freight
Rates Which Was Entered
Into a Few Short
Months Ago.
Again In TROUBLE.

Chicago, Nov. 5.-Several of the West
ern roads have withdrawn from the pro-
visional agreement entered into Sept. II
Tor the maintenance of established freight
rates in the territory of the Western
Freight association. One of the first to
take this step was the Milwaukee road.
Traffic Manager Washburn, of the Fort
Scott 4 Memphis, has notified Chair
man Midgley of the withdrawal of his
line from the agreement, alleging as Il
reason that the Kanawha dispatch, in
connection with certain Western roads,
is quoting rates on the basis of SIS cents,
first class, from New. York to Kansas
City.
The adjourned meeting of managers to
further consider the adoption of new
agreement, or Il revision of the old one,
Will not take place until next Thursday,
and will probably result in nothing 1t
looks as if some of the roads are op-
posed to any pledges of reform at this
time, and are ready to object to any
plan that may be presented. Two months
ago the managers appeared to be practi-
cally unanimous in the opinion that the
only salvation for the Western roads
was the organization OF tonnage pool.
Now. some of them declare that Il tom
mage pool is out of the question and that
those who are arguing in favor of that
plan are simply fooling away their time
because it will not be adopted. In the
meantime, wcst-bound rates are badly
demoralizcd, and there is no doubt that
east-bound rates would be in a similar
condition but Tor the fact that all the
roads have more business than they can
handle without fighting for it.
