Fight is On.
CIScINSArE, O., Feb. ..l5.-Present por-
tents indicate tho wors! rate war that
this city has seen for many years. Tho
Vanderbilts and the Pennsylvania are
doing all in their power to still the
troubled waters, but the hostility exist

ing bu. war will satisfy somc OF tho
lines.
Forsix weeks tickets have been selling
to New York for SlS for frat class. Tho
second class tariff has been $40. The
Pennsylvania and Big Four remain con-
servative and refuse to enter tho fight.
However, these two lines admit that
they have no redrcsa through tho
mediumship OF the trunk lines or Con-
tral trrific Associations, and it is safe to
say that forty.eight hours will find
every limo OF this city selling, not only
at Sl3 rate, but less than that.
