WILL MEET ALL CUTS
THE RATE DECENTRALIZATION BEAR
ING FRUIT AT INDIANAPOLIS.
The joint Traffic Association Takes
the Matter in Hand and Proposes
to Stop the RuinOus Policy.

The decentralization in east-bound freight
rates has become so pronounced that the
Joint Traffic Association has decided to
take drastic measures to put stop to the
ruinous policy that has been pursued fer
some time past, and this has led the board
of managers to authorize a general reduc-
ton in rates on grain, dairy products and
provisions, which are now being carried at
90 cents per one hundred pounds below the
published tariff from Western points to the
seaboard. 1t is stated that such action was
decided on at the meeting on Wednesday.
Thirtytwo companies constitute the as
ISOLATION and thirty were represented at the
meeting. 1t developed that west-bound rates
were being well maintained, the presidents
of these lines standing by their agreement,
but east-hound rates could not be in worse
shape than they are at Chicago Peoria and
st. Louis. The action of the board of con-
troll, authorizing managers to make open
rates to meet the underhanded cutting of
some of the roads by members of the
ganization, is regarded as a strong step
which, it is believed, will lead to a suspen-
sion of the methods pursued of late by some
lines to secure business. M. T.. ingalls,,
president of the Big -Four and the Chesa-
peake & Ohio, was not present, which gave
opportunity to surmise that he was not
pleased with the manner the association
was operating. Accusations have been made
that the Big Four was hauling grain to the
seaboard at very low figure from st.
Louis, Peoria and Chicago but no proof was
forthcoming. So far as this IS concerned,
all the lines have been shading rates, in
GLIDING the weak and the strong. An Off
cial who was in attendance at the meeting.
says the final conclusion of the presidents
was that there had been a wiIIful disregard
of tariff rates for several weeks. and the
only hope was to throw down the bars and
give the managers authority to meet any
secret rate cutting. That this action was
taken none too soon is evidenced iii the fact
that rate-cutting is becoming more and
more general and indianapolis is now in the
demoralized territory. A railway official,
we'll informed as to rate matters, said, last
evening, that poultry was being shipped to
New York at 30 cents per one hundred
pounds, 6955 cents being tariff, and eggs,
which are shipped as second-class freight,
at 30 cents per one hundred pounds, the tar
if being g. cents. And" said the official
that is not the worst feature of the case
All over, western Indiana and central and
southern Illinois poultry, which should be
billed at three hundred pounds to the bar
rel is being billed to New York, through
indianapolis, at $50 pounds to the barrel"

Dry Gnnds.

NEW YORK, April 29.-As the week draws 20
q close the conditions seem TO grow better in the
dry goods trade. The demand has been stimulate
ed by the call for goods for government use and
this has strengthened the market to some degree.
staple cottons have gained in position during the
week and it is practically impossible to secure
price concessions on staple goods except for odd
lots. The greatest activity has been in ducks
and In denims and similar lines affected by the
needs Of the army. Flag bunting continues in
great demand and il is practically impossible for
printers to keep up with their deliveries. Print
cloths have sold in very limited numbers during
the week. Practically no extras have changed
hands and odd ends, though firm, are in modeas
request. e.
