GRAND ARMY RATES.

Western Railroads Refuse to Grant Com-
uander-in-Chief Cisrkson's Request
CHICAGO, April 24-Some time ago
the western roads had before them the
question of reduced rates for the Grand
Army encampment, to be held at Buf-
falo next September. They agreed up
on a one-way rate for the round trip
to the eastern gateways of the west
ern roads, TO be added to the one
cent per mile rate made by the
roads east thereof TO Buffalo. This
rate did not suit the Grand Army
men, and Gen. Clarkson, as COM
mander-in-chief, asked the western
roads to reconsider their action and
make one cent per mile rate. The
western roads had this request under
consideration yesterday. They refused
to make lower than one-way rate,
and the only concession they would
make in their former arrangements
was to grant an extension of the re-
turn limits to the same basis as has
been adopted by the roads east of Chi
caQO.
