TO EQUALIZE THE RATES.
Union Pacific Prepares Tariffs for the Utah
and Moncana Business.

Omaha, June I2--For a long time past
the Union Pacific has desired TO eQualize
the west-bound Utah and Montana rates
but the Short Line contention has pre-
vented. Now that this matter is settled
the Union Pacific decides 10 revolutionize
the Utah situation and has prepared tar
ifs 10 go into effect June II. The idea is
to reduce the rates from the Missouri
river to Utah common points on the ten
classes and upon west-bound commodities
10 the rates In effect from the Missouri
river to Montana common points, with
present rates the Missouri river TO Utah
as a maximum. There is no intention to
advance any rates at present lower TO
Utah than TO Montana. The ten classes
from the Missouri river TO Utah are:
First. $50; second, S215: third. sl.75:
fourth. s.. a: fifth. sl.25. A. Ito: Il. 90; C.
50: d. ~: E, ~, while rates from Mis-
souri, to Montana points are: First, 81 80:
second. $40; third, N.6G: fourth. $40.
fifth; I'D; A. H-lo: B. 30; c. 80; D. .1o'
This equalization means much for Salt
Lake and Ogden but will play havoc with
present tariffs, necessitating changes in
at least half a dozen tariffs.
