The trouble arises from the fact that

their relations be conducted through a diet

other countries should be accredited 10

Canadians Will Not Be Allowed the
S. Differential.
Decision to Sell Tickets Through
10 Dawson Instead of TO Pacific
Coast Ports Direct-Claims of the
NOrthernmost Line to he Ignored,
On Rate Sheets-Proposed Action
In Line With the Ruling of the
Supreme COurt-COntcst Over In
Interchangeable Mileage Tickets.

CHICAGO, Dec. 9.--Western roads have
the business that is expected to set in dur
ing the late winter and the early spring
toward Alaska. They have been doubtful
whether the purchasers of transportation
would wish to buy tickets through TO
Dawson or only TO the ports on the Pa
cific coast. and today the roads took their
first action bearing on the question of
Alaska rates.
They have decided TO get out their rate
sheets showing through rates TO Alaska
and Will ignore entirely the claims of the
Canadian Pacific fer diffe-entiai on the
business. The rates of the Canadian Pa
cificswill not. in fact, be shown on the
sheet at ALL
In the days Of the old Transcontinental
Passenger Association the Canadian Pa
cife was allowed a differential Of $ on its
Pacific coast business, and it claims the
same now; but the roads of the old asso-
ciation, and those of the Western Passen-
ger Association as well. say that the dis
solution of me old organization after the
PRONUNCIATION of the supreme court deci-
sion regarding the formation of pools and
associations. absolyed them from all
further obligations to allow differentials
to the Canadian Pacific. The latter road
has never seen the matter in that light.
and 1t will make a fight that is very likely
to demoralize the rates to Alaska and
North Pacific coast points.
The executive committee of the Vest
ern Passenger Association held meeting
today, but considered only routine mat
ters.
At a meeting of the mileage ticket bu-
reau of the Central Passenger Associa-
ton. held today, a large-sized fight de-
veioped over the handling of the inter-
eaangeable mileage tickets. The Lake
Shore and the Michigan Central cham
pioned a resolution 10 alter the method
in which the tickets are sold at present.
The plan now in effect is for the traveller
to present his ticket 10 the ticket agent
announcing how far he desires to travel
the ticket agent tears from the mileage
book the requisite number Of miles and
issues TO the traveller the ticket. which is
good on the train. The Michigan Central
and the Lake Shore desired that the inter-
changeable ticket be made good for trans
p0rtation when presented on trains, and a
number Of other lines objected to this
Thehre was the warmest kind OF fight
and IL lasted for the greater part of the
day, bat the resolution was lost when the
matter came to final vote, twenty Of the
roads voting against /: and eight for II.
