RAILWAY RATE WAR SETTLED.
Agreement Between Southern and
SeabOaFd Air Line Commando.

Agreement Between Southern and
SeabOard Air Line Companies.
AS a result Of a series of conferences held
in this city, New York and In various places
in the south, between Vice President Finley
Of the Southern Railway Company and Mr..
st. John, vice president and general man.
ager of the Seaboard Air Line, the rate war
which has existed for some time past be-
tween those companies has been ended, and
the controversy. which began several years
ago, is practically settled.
While neither company is, as yet, pre-
pared to make an official announcement of
the fact, it is stated that an agreement has
been reached to maintain rates throughout
both systems. and especially between COM
petitive points. One of the most important
results of this agreement between the two
companies will be the fixing of stable rates
In portions Of the south reached by the two
systems. 1t is conceded that If this is done
and the agreement carried out 1t will have
far-reaching influence upon the railroad
situation in all that section of the country
south of the Ohio and between the Potomac
and Mississippi rivers.
There is already in existence an associa-
ton which has for it's object the MAIN
tenance of rates, but the Seaboard Air Line
has steadily refused to go into it, and in
consequence it has been impossible to main
tain uniformity of rates. 1t is believed
by some that the Seaboard will soon enter
the association.
1t is understood that as a part of the
agreement the Southern Railway Company
will withdraw its steamer service between
Baltimore and Norfolk, and that the Sea-
board Air Line will discontinue it's similar
service from Baltimore to Richmond. This
Arrangement would also lead to a return to
the old rates in existence before the fight
between the two companies began.
