CENTRAL TRAFFIC ASSOCIATIONS CUT.
Chicago, Dec AT a meeting OF the Chicago
committee OF the Central Traffic Association held
here to-day, the issue OF tariff sheet on grain
rates ordered. The rates for 100 pounds to
the seaboard points agreed to were: New-York, ~
cents: Boston. q cents Philadelphia. is cents Bal
tmore. II cents The rates to Buffalo and Pittsburg
were made IL cents. and to all intermediate points
the basis. This action was taken to meet
the cut announced by the Chicago and Erie yes
terday. Nothing done to-day in regard to
provision rates. and 1t is believed the Erie will be
big contract hand with Fowler Brothers, which
would be made considerably less valuable by any
cut in these rates At the time IL Is not be-
lieved the provision rate can be maintained at 80
cents with grain rates at % cents
one OF the receivers OF the Erie said yesterday:
when it comes to cutting rates there Is only one
course open to the receivers. and that is to make
an open rate to meet the secret rates of COM
pettors The receivers must do business at what
ever rates are made by competitors. for that posi-
ton Is forced upon them by virtue of their office.
Vice President George H. Valiant said: "The policy
of the Erie road for the last has been 10 main
tain all agreements. We have carried out this policy
until we found that not only our weak but our
strong competitors were not maintaining rates
Then decided squarely to meet the issue by
making an open tariff equal to the net cut rates
OF other lines. We filed tariff with the Inter-
State Commerce Commission, thereby avoiding the
Illegal devices by which the other lines have Sc
cretly reduced rates.
The rate disturbances began last spring on ex-
