The majority of the railroads IN Min
nesota will not advance their rates to
2 cents a mile for the movement of
state troops to the various camps in
the South.
- Noiwi.hstaeaing the fact that the
rate of CENTS per Capita was decided
upon by the executive. committee OF
the Western Passenger association at
a meeting held in Chicago, the Mime
sofa lines will not charge so high rate.
Why" said a prominent local rail-
road official, 80 cents mile is more
than is charged for the transporting
of pleasure seekers to many of the big
religious and society meetings of the
year. 1t is twice the rate charged the
G. A. r. vets to the annual encamp-
ments and it is the rate made the
commercial travellers who are out huS-
Ting business, not upholding the honor
of this country.
When the state troops go to Lake
City to their annual encampment they
are charged half what the executive
committee intends having us tax this
glorious country for the transportation
of an army of brave men who are
bound on such commendable mis-
sion. Why, the numerous big meet
ings at Chicago this season will get
better rate than cents mile.
The executive committee has made
a serious mistake in placing the rate
for the transportation of troops at such
a high figure. The committee eX-
plains its action by saying that be-
cause that was the charge in civil war
times it should be the standard again.
What rot. There is no good reason
because 2 cents a mile was considered
good in 1862 that it should be fair and
reasonable at this date. Passengers
can be carried at a profit now at one
half they could be transported in those
days.
Another silly explanation offered by
the members of the executive commit
tee is that cars must be brought back
empty. Is this more expensive than
bringing them back filled with Grand
Army men or state troops in times Of
peace, though the gross rate in these
cases is the same as is to be charged
for the movement of troops one way at
this time.
Has the committee no feeling of
patriotism? Should not they be
swayed to some degree by patriotic SEN
timent? The railroads are always
asking favors of state and federal gov
ernments, and now that they can be
of the greatest possible aid to the Unit
ed States they retaliate by practically
announcing their intention Of bleeding
the government"
At the 2-cent rate 1t will cost about
$21, 500 to move the Minnesota troops
to Chicago This is a conservative es-
innate, and Chicago is not very much
more than fourth of the distance.
The different ST. Paul roads who will
be called upon to ship the state troops
to the Southern points have decided
that they will not charge more than
was charged the United States gov
eminent for transporting the Third
regiment and the Montana troops,
which is about l cent mile.

CHANGES ITS MIND.
Burlington Cancels the Notice of a
New Rate on Cattle, Etc,

The Burlington route has caused a great
deal of comment among traffic men by an
nouncing the cancellation of the notice given
two days ago that they would make effective
on May L the following rates: Cattle and
hogs, Missouri river, Omaha to Kansas City.
inclusive, to Chicago, Is cents per hundred
pounds; sheep in double deck cars, Is cents
per hundred pounds; dressed beef and pack
ing house products, Missouri river points to
st Louis five cents; to East st. Louis seven
cents, and to Chicago, twelve cents per hun
dred pounds.
The reason the Burlington put in the above
rates in the first place was on account of
an old decision Of the Interstate commerce
commission to the effect that packing house
products should not be lower than live stock
rates. The rate war on packing house nrodN
ucts of the last three weeks brought the
rates on those commodities down and the
burlington evidently thought it wise to bear
the commissions ruling in mind and so
brought down the live stock rates. For some
unexplainable reason the Burlington has Civ
are off.

WANT THE Two-CENT RATE.
Railroad Representatives in Chica-
go Think They Can Force 1t.

CHICAGO, April 27.-The lines Of the
Western Passenger association met today for
the purpose of considering the rates to be
made for the transportation of troops to the
front No definite action was taken because
all of the roads in the association were not
represented and they will be given a chance
to vote on the proposition. The rate is to be
two cents per mile for the transportation Of
troops of all sorts, no matter whether they
are state troops or have been mustered into
the service of the government.
The roads so far as they have been heard
from unit in favor of the two-cent
rate. The plan to charge one cent, as Is the
when the state militia is carried to its
annual encampment, has not met with favor
able consideration, and it will not now be
taken into account at all.
The meeting of the lines today brought
out the fact that with the exception of the
trouble with the Canadian Pacific rates in
the territory of the association are generally
In a favorable condition. There is nothing
like wholesale decentralization anywhere save
in Texas, and that state is not in the ter
ritory of the Western Passenger association.
1t is likely that the Western roads will
soon pass resolution declaring all camp
furniture and equipage to be class freight.
