PASSENGER OR RAILWAY.
Discussing which One shall Pay the War
Tax on Tickets.

Chicago. April 20.-Passenger officials
OF the roads entering in Chicago are
divided on the question as to whether
the railroads or the purchaser or
tickets should pay the tax to be Inn
posed by the government In case OF
war. Some are of the opinion that the
maximum rate law effective in some
states will prevent them from adding
anything to the present price of tick
cts. and others say that the Increase
will not he an increase in the price
of the tickets, but viii be n tax. and
that the government and the passen-
gers can settle the matter between
them, and that 3s far as state laws
on the subject of maximum rates arc
concerned, the law from the goyern-
ment will take precedence over any
enactment by state legislatures. An
other question is whether the tax Will
he made to cover all fares paid for
Transportation, or simply tickets sold.
II the latter construction Is the rule,
the roads say they will sell very few
tickets over the c9unter,and that nine
out OF ten passengers will pay their
fare on trains In order to avoid the
tax which would be imposed upon
them IL they bought their tickets out
right at the regular offices.

United States Government win Not Resort
to Pirntiral Methods.


Washington, April 2O.-An outline of
the policy to be followed by this gov
eminent in the treatment OF neutrals
tanned in the following statement:
In the event of hostillties between
the United States and Spain. II will be
the policy of this government not to
resort to privateerlng. The govern
ment will adhere to the following rules:
"First-Neutral flag covers with the
exception Of contraband of war; sec.
ond neutral goods not contraband of
war are not liable to conhscation under
to be binding must be effective"
This doctrine Is undoubtedly laid
down to meet the various inuqiries re-
ceiyed by the diplomatic representa-
tives of the United states from foreign
governments as to the attitude as
stunned by the United States. 1t is sub
stantially in line with the rules prac-
ticed in the recent Chinese-Japanese
war, and places the United states in a
most advanced position so far as the
protection of individual property and
neutral goods at sea is concerned. BY
IT Spanish goods are made free from
seizure on the seas in the bottoms of
n neutral power. This decision on the
part of our government will doubtless
be welcomed in Europe.
Word came to the navy department
today that the Spanish cruisers Pc
layo. Vizcaya and Oquendo are all at
present at Cape de Verde Islands, In
company with the torpedo boat flo
tilla. 1t is realized that this consti-
tutes a most formidable naval force, In
the opinion of experts equal to our
crack flying squadron now lying In
Hampton Roads.
