Onion Pacific, Denver and Gulf Road
Knows How England Feels.

Chicago, Jan. 13.-There is trouble
ahead for the Union Pacific, Denver
and Gulf railroad and it is likely TO
come out loser in its fight against the
Atchison road. 1t today carried the
war deeper in passenger rates, reduc-
ing those from Denver to Chicago by
S. and those from Denver to st. Louis
and the Missouri river by $3.50. To-
morrow il will receive notice from all
it's eastern connections that they will
refuse to stand any part of the reduc-
ton, and they will do no business with
it except on the basis of full tariff rates
The haul of the Union Pacific, Denver
and Gulf is so short that it will hardly
be able to stand all of the reductions
out of hts own income. All the other
Colorado lines are anxious to keep out
of the fight, and they will do SO unless
the Union Pacific joins in with the
Union Pacic, Denver and Gulf, which
it is by no means likely to do when it
understands that all the other lines are
going to stand none of the reduction.
The sltuation between Chicago and ST
Paul is steadily becoming worse, and
Chicago brokers now have a supply Of
tickets that seems TO be practically I'M
limited, and they are selling them at a
reduction Of 81 from the regular rate.
There are also on the market here any
number of certificates issued in connec-
ton with the late bicycle show in this
city, by which rates from Chicago to
Denver are being cut at least two
thirds

SONIETHINE IN A NAME
Big Difference Between Julia Marlowe
Taber and Julia MarIowe.

Taber and Julia MarIowe.
Philadelphia, Jan. ia suit has been
brought against Frank Howe, jr., Of
the Walnut Street theatre by Julia
MARROW Tabor for a sum Of money al
legged to be due her on a contract for
her last engagement played in Phila-
delphia at the Walnut Street theatre.
Mr.. Howe claims that Mrs. TabCr's en-
gagement did not comply with the
terms Of the contract, as they insisted
upon advertising Julia MarlOwe-Ta'bor
instead of Julia MarloWe, thereby de-
preciating the stars value by taking
from her a trade mark that was of mo-
mentary value TO the theatre in which
she played. The contract was for
four weeks commencing Morch 4, 1895,
and called for the appearance of Julia
Marlowe, Mr.. Howe to give her sixty
per cent of the gross receipts, guaran-
teeing that her snare should not be less
than $4,000 weekly.
The actress manager insisted on
the star being advertised under her
own name. although Mr.. Howe says
he reconstructed. A compromise was
agreed to, Mr.. Howe guaranteeing
s., 500 a week as her share, and she was
to play two weeks in other towns. AZ
forwards, Mr.. Howe says, Mr.. Tabor
insisted on playing four weeks in Phil
adelphia. Business was from $50 to
$1,000 a week under the receipts of the
previous enga cement. Mr.. Howe re-
fused to pay more than 60 per cent and
the suit was finally instituted.
