AFFAIRS OF THE RAILWAYS.
Convention Rates to He Fixed h,
Western Lines This Week

CHICAGO. May ia call has been issued
for meeting OF the Western Lines Passen-
ger Association on Thursday of next week
The business to come before the meeting
is the fixing Of rates for number of the
most important conventions of the year
1t is probable that the rates granted for
the meeting of the National Educational So
ciety in Denver in July will be reconsidered.
The committee having in charge the draft
ing OF am agreement for the proposed trans
continental passenger association met this
morning and worked steadily throughout
the day. No hitch or snar developed
and the work progressed rapidly. 1t is
believed that the agreement can be SUBJ
mitted within a week if everything goes
as smoothly to-day.
The Burlington has given notice OF it's
intended withdrawal from the local pas
senger association at Denver. No reason
has been given for the withdrawal. One
story is that the Burlington has taken this
action for the purpose of forcing the Union
Pacific into an ironclad agreement on West
ern passenger business. The most proba-
bic theory is, however. that the step was
taken as economic measure. II is an
nounced, however. that the Burlington in
tends no action detrimental 10 the interests
OF the lines which still members of
the Denver local agreement.
