Another boycott Possible.

Charges are made that the Burlington has
been cutting the rate from Denver to Chi
cago and return for a party of school
teachers. 1t is alleged that the road has
made a rate OF 5000. The Burlington de-
MES in the most positive terms that it has
done anything Of the kind. but the other
lines claim that they not only have photo
graphs OF the tickets. but some of the tick
cts as well. The Rio Grande Western is
also accused OF cutting the rate between
Salt Lake City and Chicago. 1t has been
asked for an explanation, and an intima-
ton has been given out that unless the ex-
PLANTATION is forthcoming a boycott may be
instituted against the road.
