The Fast Train Problem Comes
Up Again.
st. Louis Roads Object to Rock
Islands Schedule.
CHICAGO TO DENVER.
Say Extra Fare Should be
Charged For Time Cut.
Rock Island Refuses-May Mean
Rate War.
CHICAGO TO DENVER.

Chicago, May 1.-THE executive Off
GERS of the transcontinental roads met
here today for the purpose of consider
ing the situation in the passenger rates,
and incidentally the differentials that
have been the cause Of so much trou-
ble between the American roads and
the Canadian Pacific.
Nothing was done in the matter, for
at the last minute the Canadian Pacific
sent word that it would not be repre-
scented at the meeting, and the other
roads were compelled to hold their dis
cussiOn without it. The general feeling
was that the differentials should be
discontinued on freight business as well
as on the passenger traffic.
The fast train problem is again before
the western roads. The last cause of
trouble is the fast train which the
Rock Island has just put on between
Chicago and Denver, and it is the ROADS
from St. Louis who are making the Cd
ections this time. They say that by rea-
son of it's connections at Kansas City,
the Rock Island has cut the time be-
tween st. Louis and Denver, and that
it should therefore charge an extra fare
on its fast train. The Rock Island has
declined to entertain the proposition,
and says that for years the Union Pa
cific has been making as good time be-
tween Kansas City and Denver as it as
now doing and that as the road has not
been asked to pay any extra fare on its
trains, there is no reason why the de-
mand should be made on the Rock Is
land.
The Burlington takes a strong view
an the opposite direction and says that
if the Rock Island does not charge the
extra fare, it will not charge any extra
fare on its fast train between Chicago
and Denver, and thus the entire fast
train question will be opened up once
more. A meeting has been called for
next Tuesday to consider the matter.
The quartermaster's department to-
day invited the roads to make bids on
the transportation of troops from
Springfield, Ill, Columbus, Indianapo-
lis, Des Moines and other points west
and south of Chicago. The request for
bids did not say how many troops are
to be carried, but 1t is understood that
no bids will be entertained that are
over cent per mile, and it is not likely
that the roads will put in any at a high
er rate than that.

The Coitax School.

This school was opened last Mon
day morning with Prof. H. b. Hines
as principal and Prof. ]. F. Patrick
as assistant. Owing TO the late ar
rival OF the teachers they were unable
to go among the patrons and solicit
pupils, but were nevertheless pleased
to find 2Son hand Monday morning
at the opening hour. This number
is being added to almost daily, and
they hope to soon have the school
largely attended and in its usual -four
ishing condition. These teachers pos
sess experience and ability, and have
been employed with the special view
of advancing our educational inter-
ests.
All school patrons should patronize
the three months pay term which is
in progress now. 1t is greatly to the
pupils interest to begin at the first of
the course and take it all the way
through. 1t is the only way to make
the pupil thorough. Though it may
be slight sacrifice for some, you can
make no better investment for your
children for an education is something
that will take wings and fly away,
beside the employment and advant-
ages it affords. You have two COM
petent teachers who have come among
you to labor in the cause of education,
and they deserve your support. Ger
tainly they must have your coopera-
ton to succeed in building up a good
school.
