Agree to Maintain Rates.

CHICAGO, Nov. l5.-Western as
ISOLATION lines have been entered
into a solemn compact to absolute
ly maintain freight rates on and
after today. This agreement was
partly the result of the lowering of
divisions to interior lines, partly
forced by the absolute necessity of
making every cent they can in or
der to even up the losses of the
summer, and partly the realiza-
ton of the fact that there is
no necessity for railroads keeping a
bargain counter in rates, from
which shippers can choose the low
est price or force it still lower. Lit
tie has been said of cut rates on
Western lines, but they have been
sagging in so many places as al
most to put the whole basis on a
lower scale. The agreement was
badly needed, and the finances of
the roads badly need its absolute
maintenance.
