WESTERN RAILROAD NEWS NOTES.

Chicago. Aug. 9.-Packers and shippers of pro-
visions much agitated over sensational reduc-
ton in the rates provisions and packing house
products The reduction applies only on business
between the Missouri and Mississippi rivers not on
that originating east Of the Mississippi River. The
object is TO make the reduced rates available for
export traffic only, the through rates to the East
ern seaboard points based on the eastbound
rates from the Mississippi River.
The new rate on provisions from the Missouri
River to Mississippi River points is eight cents per
100 pounds while the rate heretofore in effect be-
tween those points 1872 cents This makes a
cut Of 10 cents in the through rate from the Missouri
River 10 the Eastern seaboard. and gives Missouri
River packers ar enormous advantage over those
at Chicago and al various points east of the Misss
sippi River, tho rate from the Missouri River to
Chicago is 23is cents and to this VIII have to be
added rate of 30 cents per 100 pounds from Chicago
to New-York
In consequence. the through rate from the Mis-
souri, River TO New-York is only cents higher than
the through rate from Chicago to New-York
The excuse for this discrimination In the rates
on provisions is that the Gulf roads have laley be-
gun TO cut rates on provisions from the Missouri
River to New-Orleans and Galveston. as they have
been doing on rates on corn and wheat lor many many
roads has resulted in the diversion Of large amount
of provisions from the Missouri River TO New-Or-
leans and Galveston.
This refutes the claim heretofore made that pro-
visions and packing house products cannot he

the export traffic, the roads east from the Missouri
River say 1t could be expected Of them to reduce
the rates on other export traffic TO make cor
responding reductions on the local business. for
which the Gulf roads cannot compete, they say.
