There will be no rate war from sea-
board ports to Utah common points,
although a number of Utah jobbers
look forward to something of the kind.
The plain facts in the case were sub
stantially stated in Sundays Herald,
when it was announced that the Union
Star line (Pennsylvania) had put in an
all rail rate from the seabOard on the
same basis as that of the water and
rail lines. which means cut of As
cents per hundred on first class freightS
with corresponding reductions on other
classes.
Some were led to believe that this
would bring about a prOtracted rate
war. but apparently it will not. While
the Star Union put in tariff cutting to
the water and rail basis, connecting
rail lines declined to participate in IL
That the Star Union realized that it
would be futile to attempt to maintain
such a tariff. under those circum-
stances, and the Star agreed TO give
notice of withdrawal of the rate.
In the meantime the water and rail
lines met the new rate by insistance
upon the we'll known differential and
put in a tariff preserving them This
tariff while intended to live only to
meet and Offset the new rate, protects
the water and rail lines. The latter
insists upon the preservation of that
4S cents differential, and the Utah lines
started by it. They acquiesced in the
new tariff yesterday and now all is
plain sailing for the water and rail
lines from seaboard to Utah common
points as long as the rate exists 1t is
not to be understood that the water
rail lines participating will not pre-
serve the all rail rates between inter-
mediate points, because they will do
so to the letter.
The Morgan steamship line and the
Southern Pacific was yesterday granted
the same rates, as was the Gulf line,
presumably via the Union Pacific.
AS the matter now stands the Union
Star line tariff viii die legal death

even things up on the outline
A meeting was held in New York
to close the matter up. Some
far. merchants generally have been
holding off, in anticipation of Bis
rate war, but some very heavy orders
have been put in and others Will follow,
because so soon as the new tariffs are
dead, shippers will have to pay full
rates once more
There is no sign Of a genuine and
prOtracted war.
