RATE CUTTER PUNISHED
CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY BOY-
COTTED BY WESTERN LINES.
VIII Not BE Permitted to Carry Any
Immigrants Arriving at Our Ports
Union Pacific Causing Trouble.

A boycott has been declared against the
Canadian Pacific road by the Western lines,
so far as immigrant traffic is concerned.
The Canadian road was a member of the
Western Immigrant Bureau, but it has
been CURLY informed that on account of its
Ignoring the rules of the clearing house and
the course it has seen fit to pursue in re-
gard to the whole differential rate question
its membership in the Immigrant Bureau
has ceased. The notice is emphasized by
the fact that the transatlantic steamship
companies landing at New York and Bos-
ton, which are under agreement to support
the Western roads in the matter, have sent
instructions to all their agents not to ticket
any business over the Canadian Pacific in
either direction. Many of the agents of
the Canadian Pacific in the Northwest were
also agents of the steamship companies,
and their agencies have been Cancelled.
This will be a severe blow to the Canadian
Pacific, as it will prevent it getting any i'm
migrant traffic at either of the two ports
named. 1t will have to be content with
what it gets at the Canadian ports, and
but a very small percentage of the whole
lands there. A further blow was aimed at
the Canadian Pacific by its opponents fling
with the Interstate-commerce Commission
sion of the long and-short-haul clause of the
act, so as to enable them to met its COM
petition in connection with through rates
without interfering with their intermediate
rates. Should this application be granted,
and it is believed it will be- it will be of
immense advantage to the American roads
in conserving their revenues while the con-
fiict continues Western roads say that at
81 frl1p will
their fight with the American roads, and
this will render them practically independ-
ent of the others. The Grand Trunk will
act with them so far as the Central Passen-
ger Association roads are concerned, SO
that they will have the support of connec-
tons all the way through. A call was is
sued yesterday for meeting of the West
ern roads at Chicago Thursday to discuss
the situation.
The Western roads find themselves in
volved in quarrel with the Union Pacific
road, which is almost as serious as that i'm
which they are engaged with the Canadian
racine, insomuch as it threatens the ex-
lstence of their agreement with the trans
atlantic steamship companies. The Union
racine, While not actually a member of the
western Immigrant Bureau, has professed
TO De acting in harmony with it and OBJ
serving its rules. 1t has now leaked out
that the Union Pacific has made deal with
Peter Mcdonnell, discharged agent of the
bureau, and is paying him $lS per ticket
commission on California business. The
authorized commission paid by the bureau
Is S45O The Union Pacific has been notified
that If it does not at once abrogate this
arrangement it will be cut off from all par
tlcipation In the business passing through
the clearing house, which means all arriv
ing at New York and Boston.
