Joint Traffic Association.

call has been issued for a meeting of
the board Of control of the Joint Traffic AS
ISOLATION, which comprises the presidents of
the lines in the association. for tomorrow
at 10 a. m. One Of the objects of President
Ingalls, Eastern visit was to attend this
meeting, at which a successor to the late
George p. Roberts, as chairman will be
elected, and the understanding is that it
will be Chauncey NJ. Depew, who is now
acting chairman. At the same meeting
there will be a review and discussion of
the present situation, which has become
somewhat aggravated by independent ac-
ton on the part of some of the railroad
officials. 1t has been charged that some OF
the lines have acted regardless of the man.
ayers who have refused to lower the rate,
and are now hauling grain much below the
tariff rates. A further reduction by the
Joint Traffic lines, as openly bidding for the
haul on that commodity, would be fraught
with dangerous results. An unnecessary
warfare with the gulf roads would ensue.
unimportant figure. Whatever the presi-
dents may do, 10 Is absolutely certain that
they will not disband the organization.
Said traffic official, who would prefer
that his name should not be given: The
reports as TO conditions have been greatly
exaggerated. The association is as sound
as ever. OF course there may be changes
in membership of this association the same
as I'm any other. but the association is
solid He said he had heard nothing of
the Chesapeake & Ohio drawing out and
the Pennsylvania giving notice OF Its with
drawal; however. there is already a suffi-
cient feeling Of dissatisfaction among some
of the presidents to insure a new deal when
they have meeting and the powers of the
managers will be restricted. 1t has got TO
be done to insure harmony. The managers
seemed to have been governed by the idea
that they were the whole thing. but If their
wings are clipped they will not soar so
high in the future and the effect Will be de-
cidedly salutary. The Joint Traffic Associa-
ton in many respects has been a good
thing. but the policy pursued will have
be modified If they want TO hold all the
roads in line.

Traffic Rates DemOraIized.

The freight rates east-bound from st.
Louis are in very badly demoralized con-
dition and the chances are that they will
be worse before they are better. The cause
OF the trouble is the same as has caused
the bottom to drop out of the tariffs east
from Chicago. the competition of the roads
running to the South and Southeast being
a little too keen for the east-bound roads.
The regular meeting of the Central
Freight Association was held in Chicago
yesterday and all that was accomplished
was the reference to various committees of
the matters of the call of the meeting,
none of them being of any particular i'm
portance The committees will report 10 the
general meeting to-day. 1t was expected
that the roads would make some recon-
mendation to the Joint Traffic Association
in view of the decentralization that exists
at present in the east-bound rates from
Chicago. No action of this kind was taken,
however, and the committee may decide to
take no action. inasmuch as In the past the
board of managers of the Joint Traffic As
sociation has seen fit to ignore entirely all
the suggestions that the Central Freight
Committee has felt itself called upon TO
make.

COOMBS CHARGED WITH ARSON
Fire i'm His Cigar Store-Paper Sat
urated with Coal Oil.

W. III. Coombs. proprietor of the cigar
store at No. II Virginia avenue was ar
rested yesterday by Detectives Thornton
and Kinney on the charge of arson. About
2:30 o'clock yesterday morning an alarm of
fire was turned in from Box 50. and ii was
discovered that the cigar store was afire.
The department arrived in time TO extin-
SuiSh the flames before much damage had
been DONE The small crowd of policemen
and belated pedestrians who gathered about
the store during the fire declared that the
smell of coal oil was strong about the place.
and the claim that the store had been fired
was made and generally talked. Paper
saturated with oil was found by the police
The arrest of Coombs was through the
statement made TO the police by Charles
Hasely an attorney, who has office and
sleeping rooms above the cigar store. He
says he was lying awake when he heard the
door of the cigar store slam shut. 1t was
unusual at the time of the night and he
supposed burglars were at work He went
TO the front window. which was raised and
looked out. He says he man hurry
ing away from the place and at the same
time saw the smoke pouring out over the
transom and smeled the fumes of burning
oil.
