FREIGHT ROW IS ON.
Minneapolis and St. Paul Business
rt.r7~=-- Involved in 1t.

A serious row regarding divisions on
California freight traffic has just
broken out between the Western
freight association and the Southern
Pacific Railway company. The form
er, a short time ago. decided to demand
and retain on and after Jan. l, 1896.
10 per cent as its proportion on ali
shipments from and to st. Paul, Min
neapolis and Minnesota Transfer via
Missouri river crossings, Sioux City to
Kansas City, both inclusive, when
destined to or originating at points in
California.
Protest against this action was filed
In Chicago with Commissioner Midgley
by General Freight Agent Smurr, of
the Southern Pacific. His company
says Mr.. Smurr, cannot help regarding
the action of the Western roads in de-
parting from agreed divisions as en-
tirely and unwarrantably ignoring
their associates in the through lines
ordinarily, he believes, it is accepted
1t takes two to make a bargain, but
the Western roads seem. to think dif-
ferently. He, therefore, gives formal
notice that IN SO far as the Southern
Faclhc company is concerned it de-
cEneS to accept the Western roads
ultimatum on that subject, and will
insist that on any business done to
and from st. Paul, MINNEAPOLIS and
Minnesota Transfer, and points in Cal
ifornia served by the Southern Pacific
Via the Missouri gateways, it must
have the same revenue it enjoyed I'M
der the agreed divisions existing prior
to Jan. 1, 1896.
A few days ago the Southern Pacific
received aid and comfort from several
OF the Colorado lines, including the
Union Pacific. These roads also take
the ground the action of the Western
association lines was unreasonable and
unfair, and demand a reinstatement of
the old percentages.
Commissioner Midgley refuses to
comply with the demand. Reduced
allowance, he says, originated with the
formation of the lines via Norfolk.
Neb., and Sioux City, which has since
been abandoned, hence divisions which
accompanied former conditions should
be reinstated.

day to the effect that the rate Of $50

the Baptist anniversaries to be held in
Portland, Or, next May, will be avail

corresponding gateways. 1t will not
apply from st. Louis, Memphis or New
Orleans, and, moreover, those points
are nSt included in the territory from
which the regular one-way thirty-day
first-class tickets are to be sold.
The committee of the New York Min
Ing exchange, which has been making
an effort to secure reduced rates from
Denver to New York on the occasion of
the opening of the mining exchange in
the latter city, have failed in the en-
deavor.
The complication between the lines in
Colorado business shows no signs of
settlement. The Union Pacific, Denver
d Gulf has over seven hundred tickets
in the hands of the brokers. and the
cost of taking them up is more than it
cares to assume. 1t has again asked
the Atchison and the Denver & Rio
Grande, which, it claims, are equally
interested with itself in the maintenance
of rates in Colorado, to aid in clearing
the market, but both lines have flatly
declined. They say that they had no
hand in placing the tickets with the bro
kers, and that it is none of their bust
ness to take them out. Meanwhile the
entire Western Passenger association is
crying to have the tickets taken off the
market and the Union Pacific, Denver
d Gulf has hot water ahead Of it no
matter which way it jumps. 1t must
take up the tickets at a heavy loss, or

appeal of the Minneapolis &. ST. Louis
people will probably be held early this
week.
While the matter itself is not con-
sidered especially important the prin-
ciple involved is of some moment and
& decision will hold for future cases of
like character. In this instance the
Minneapolis & st. Louis road objects
to the use by the Omaha Of round-trip
rates to apply to interior junction
points as a basis for making rates from
st. Paul in the st. Paul rate sheet, on
the ground that the interior points
mentioned are not available for the
Omaha. and the latter road appeals to
arbitration.

which are diverting the cereals for export to
Galveston, New Orleans and other gulf points.
There is almost as great stagnation as at
this time last year, when there was little grain
for shipment. Reports from the West show
that the corn is being rather generally cribbed,
awaiting a rising market. The railroads are
carving less grain now than they were three
months ago..

The deck aft of the cabin was covered
with clotted blood. which had run from a
great pool near the cabin door down the
deck on both sides of the cabin to the
scuppers. and thence overheard. Inc
cabin was shattered with blood and brains,
and near by lay a small galley axe. the
back and handle of which were red

showed where the body had been dragged

that the body had been thrown over
board. s-...,
