A CUT WAS INEVITABLE.
But II Came Sooner Than 1t Mas
Anticipated.
THE TEXAS AND PACIFlC'S PETITION,
Raised on Account of the War
between Ocean Lines.

Austin, Texas, July 11.-By way OF argu-
ment in support OF the proposition to petit
ton the railroad commission to nullify the
| effect of the cut in ocean rates from New
York to Galveston and Houston by rails
ing the common point railroad rates from
those points. which proposition originated
with the Texas and Pacific. IL is advanced
that said cut in the ocean rate is not q
permanent one and that It would unneces-
| sarily disturb the Southwestern as we'll as
the State rate situation to let 1t influence
the rail tariffs in effect in this territory
1t makes no difference that the Texas lines
refuse TO cut their local rates. The reduc-
ton IN the ocean rate means a reduction in
the through rate from the Atlantic sea-
board. which must eventually be followed
by reduction OF the st. Louis rate, be-
cause st Louis defined territory jobhers
and manufacturers viii not sit quietly by
and soc their customers transfer their trade
TO the seaboard
All the Texas lines do not take the same
Wow of the matter that the Texas and
Pacific does. however for the International
and Great Northern and tho Santa Fe
have already refused to join in the petition
for raise IN the Galveston and Houston
rate, and 1t is doubtful whether H. after
studying tho matter more carefully. the
southern Pacific will acquiesce therein
The Southern Pacific has Joined the NAL
Tory line in reducing the ocean rate from
New York to head of the gradual slipping
away or Texas business from the Atlantic
sea BOARD 10 kuuElA CITY 81 IN A
Chicago.
The claim of the Mallory and Morgan
lines is that they are entitled to better
rates from New York to New Orleans and
Galveston than prevail over the all rail
lines from New York to st Louis and
the West and the ocuan rates would have
been reduced ere this had not the South
western Traffic association refused to per-
NIT it. but the association is dissolved
now and the situation Ia changed and IL
may be put down as "A certainty that the
ocean rates viii never be put back to the
figure ut which they stood before the pres
cnt rate was opened up. The advent of tho
Lone Slnr line preclpi'ated the reduction
and occasioned the cut sooner than was in.
tondcd and brought about a greater slash
than was anticipated. but when the clouds
roll by and the atmosphere clears mp II

Fort Worth, Texas, July 1.-THE Brf-
falces failed today TO keep w the record
for the past two games and the Colts to
prevent three straghts being entered
against them, made a winning effort that
brought them out 10 TO /.
The brilliant plav of the game and what
set the colts In motion was Pabst's fly
over the left field fence IN the third in
ming, by which he made home run and
brought in 1saacs and Gettman.
In the third inning Deveney contested
the umpire's decision on strikes, was fined
and sent to tho bench. causing general
shifting of positions.
The only error made by the Colts vas
Pabsts throw 10 second in the frat in
ming, which hit cote. Thy found Gov
ellis delivery and pounded the BAH Ike
fun. making eleven hits.
The Buffaloes are in crippled condi-
ton and had two pitchers in the field
after Deveney was put on the bench.
hnoN's absence from the game undoubt-
edly changed the result somewhat.
