Railroad men generally have been
speaking enthusiastically of the last

Sensational developments revealed
themselves yesterday in the Cali

to the Santa Fe that the Union Pa.
cific is not combining its secret rate

Western roads in their most delicate
part II has been their dread all along
that rates between Chicago and the
Missouri river should become badly
dem ralIzsd. To some of them under
existing circumstance it would mean
bankruptcy and receiverships, and to
all ii would mean the passing or. at
least, large reductions of dividends.
Meantime the effect of reductions so
far made has been TO cause "A large and
continuous increase i'm the Santa Fe's

reduced there has been n large
increase in the sale of tickets az com
