A DEEP CUT PROBABLE.

CHICAGO, June 1S-The Atchison. road
will probably announce tomorrow morn
ing a rate of S10.75 between the Missouri
river and Denver and SIS between Chicago
and Denver as the round trip rate for ex-
cursion business. This will be a very deep
cut from the existing tariffs and will of
necessity compel all other lines to come in
or lose the greater part of the business.
The reduction is not absolutely certain
but the chances are very strong that the
Atchison will put in the reduced rates
tomorrow.
