Mr. IngaIIs,s Views.

Business is picking up everywhere" said
President Ingalls, of the Big Four and
Chesapeake q Ohio. 1.-The best evidence of
that is the fact that the railroads are
hauling more cars, and loaded ones at that
All over the country there is a general i'm
provement in business, and l believe it will
continue to grow. The farmer. all over is
selling his produce and hogs higher now
than in some time past. The crops in the
West promise TO be enormous and factories
and mills are starting up in different sec
tons So far as the Big -Four and Chesa-
peake & Ohio are concerned, we are doing
nicely. You may say that there is abso-
utely no truth in the reports that / am
to resign the presidency either of the Big
Four or Chesapeake & Ohio Neither is it
true that the interests of those two prop
critics are to be SeDarated -

InterchnngenbIe Mileage.

At meeting of the Central Passenger As
sociaticn in Chicago yesterday. called to
consider the question of interchangeable
mileage tickets, it was decided that ON and
after June 20 no more interchangeable mile
age tickets will be sold by the companies
which are members of the association, nor
will they accept detachments from inter-
ehangeable mileage tickets sold by other
companies, except so far may be here
after provided for over lines operating
through car service. 1t was also decided
that after June 20 all concessions of every
special kind to brokers shall cease, and
Commissioner Donald was instructed to
maintain such watch on the market as
will insure keeping the resolution by all
the lines concerned. 1t was also resolved
that, taking effect July 20, all the lines of
the association shall restore all passenger
rates to the agreed tariffs. and that all tick
cts purchased by the commissioner for the
purpose of testing the market shall be re-
deemed by the initial line over which the
ticket shall read. The meeting will be con-
tnued to-day, and ii is likely that the mat
ter of interchangeable mileage tickets will
be finally settled.

Rate Situation in the West.


The executive committee of the West
ern Passenger Association met in Chicago
yesterday for the purpose of considering
the rate situation in the West. Represent
atives of the Denver & Rio Grande and of
the Oregon Short-line were present to see
that the interests of their roads were prop
erly protected. The meeting accomplished
nothing of consequence up to late hour,
and the feeling is general that it will re-
quire a meeting of the presidents of the
Western roads to straighten out the mud
die, as the general passenger agents feel
that the matter has reached a point which
is somewhat beyond their jurisdiction. 1t
is probable that the Oregon Short-line will
not make hard fight against the Union
Pacific, if, indeed, it does not side with it,
despite the fact that it is trying TO prevent
the other roads from paying 1T large per-
centages through the Ogden gateway. Some
of the roads which are against the Union
Pacific in this fight are of the opinion that
it. and the Alton and the Northwestern,
which have sided with it, are playing a
large game of bluff and that the entire
matter will in a short time be found to be
nothing but a tempest in a teapot. The Of
ficials of the Alton and the Northwestern
say there is no bluff in the matter and that
they propose to stand by the Union Pa
cific, no matter what comes. 1t is likely
that another meeting will be held within a
few days to settle the trouble, and if it is
not successful the chances are bright for
the talest kind of a fight. 1t is conceded
On all sides that the rate situation is more
precarious just now than at any time since
1890.
The Western roads kept the wires hot
at Chicago yesterday in the effort to get
their Eastern connections to join with
them in meeting the rates made Wednesday
by the 500 ine from st. Paul to the At
lantic seaboard If the Eastern roads will
not join in, there will be nothing left for
the Western roads TO do but to sit down
and see all the business from st. Paul for
the Atlantic seabolrd carried by the 500
line, for it is out of the question for them
To meet the rate without the cooperation
of their Eastern connections.

MAY DEMORALIZE RATES
DISTURBING ELEMENT.
President IngaIIs's Cheerful View of
the SituatiOn-MiIeage Book still
an Unsettled Factor.

Il am sorry" said a general passenger
agent, that this Christian Endeavor bust
ness to the Pacific coast came up this year.
L am fearful it will lead to a rate democrat
iZation which will extend through the sum-
mer and lead to other complications as to
rates per mile. Never in the history of
American roads has as low rate been Of
fered as that to the Pacific coast, and it
will surely cut into the business of other
conventions, thousands will make sacri-
fees to take advantage of the low rate to
CALIFORNIA; rate which will benefit prae-
tically but few roads. 1t can hardly be ex-
pected that people, even if members of
other organizations like the Epworth
League, will be willing TO pay about as
much to go to Toronto, if published rates
are adhered to, as to go to San Francisco.
Then again, the fare does not fully repre-
sent the reduction, because it is known that
in a number of cases local or state societies
have made arrangements to go by one
route and return by another, when another
agent has offered more passes to officials of
societies provided they would consider his
line official. The number of passes issued,
II counted, would be a great surprise, and
with the low rate no line will get much
money above the actual cost of running the
train. What worries most is the fact
that it will unfavorably affect excursion
business to other points, as so many fami-
lies are making sacrifices that members
of such families may go to the Pacific
coast, and at rates which.it is probable will
never again be duplicated, being lower than
the Grand Army rates. So far as our road
is concerned, the fewer off of our lines who
go the better will we be pleased, as / am
confident that other lines of travel will
suffer on account of this low rate. 1t
would have been better for the roads to
have the transcontinentaI lines and their
Eastern connections make d rate of one
cent a mile and no passes
