REDUCED RATES REFUSED.
NEw-ENGLAND AND souTHEAsrERN ROADS DE-
CLINE TO MAKE SPECIAL TERMS
TOR MEPrH ANTS.

The railroads forming the New-Ergland Passen-
ger Association have declined TO grant the appli-
cation of the Merchant Association for reduced
rates from the New England territory. This ap-
plicauon was made on exactly the same basis a.
the app.lca ion which was granted by the roads
forming the Trunk Line Association and the Cen
tral Passenger Association The association says il
declines the application "on account Of the low
regular rates prevailing In ew-Ensland.' The
Merchants Association has filed protest agains,
this action. and has asked for reconsideration
OF the matter.
The roads forming the Southeastern Passenger
Association also declined 70 grant the application
~ no Merchants Assoca tiOr for reduced rates Of
fare In their territory. The Southeastern Passen-
ger Association embraces an the territory lying
eas- 0f the Mississippi River and south OF the
Ohio River Tho counsel OF tine association held that
such rates would be u the nature OF discrimna-
ton and against the spirit Of the Interstate COM
uerCe- act. The other associations did not regard
the matter IN that Hight decision by Judge Cooley
having settled IT, in The opinion Of the Trunk lines
and OF the join, Traffic Association
The only recourse now lefr 10 the Merchants
