ROCK BOTTOM RATES
Have Probably Been Reached by the
MnrrinE Chesnnenke Iinca.

Bay rates cannot get very much lower.
The general impression among represen-
tatives of all the lines concerned In the
war now OH is to the effect that rock
bottom has been struck and the public
is only looking for continuation OF the
fight only along the lines OF free berths,
etc. Whether this will come or not is of
course problematical, but II Is not prob
able that the tariffs will be slashed any
more
The Baltimore Steam Packet Compa-
ny, which was the original aggressor in
the fight, having met its competitors
cut. the contest is now on an even basis.
The great increase in travel induced
by the low rates is such that lines are
really not losing n great deal of money
on passenger traffic, but in the matter OF
freight they are not so we'll off. Commits
sloner Haines, of the Southern States
Freight Associa .!on expresses the opin-
ion that the present rates barely cover
the cost OF handling the freight on the
dock, leaving an insignificant margin
for the cost of transportation.
They're merely carrying stuff free"
he said, and many transportation men in
the city agree with him.
How long the rate war will continue
no one can tell Certain 1t is that thous-
ands OF tons of freigh; are being moved
over the Chesapeake which might other
wise have gone by rail. That this in
lures the railroad lines Is self-evident
fact and the freight association is only
awaiting the decision of the courts to
take a hand and get some business for
its rail lines.

the Southern, yesterday: mo. we do
not contemplate another cut immediate
