A WESTERN RATE WAR THREATENED.

Chicago. Aug 6.-No time Is being lost by the man
agcment OF the Great Northern Railway Ia establish
itself AS n competitor for Pacihc Coast traffic Its
limo has been completed TO spokane. but It will take
ten months yet to reach the coast. In view OF this
unavoidable delay, efforts now being made to per
feet traffic arrangement with the Union Pacific by
which through passenger service may at once be es
tabllshed. Sharp competition between the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific Northern trans
continental traffic would naturally be the result Of
such arrangement. II i believed that the Great
Northern will begin operations BY announcing re
duction in both freight and passenger rates. and in
that case II sharp fight and decentralization OF rates
cannot easily be avoided General Traffic Manager Fin
ley and General Passenger Agent Whitney OF the Great
Northern have gone to Omaha TO consult with the
Union Pacific officials. in reference TO the proposed
compact against tic Northern Pacific.
