Little Chance of the Roads Getting
TVO.Cant Rata

Little Chance of the Roads Getting
a TwO-Cent Rate.
The article in yesterdays G lob e. which
announced that majority of the St. Paul
railroads will not make rate of two cents
per mile to apply for the transportation Of
state troops, Notwithstanding the agreement
Of the Western Passenger associations ex-
ecutive committee to that effect, has OCCASION
ed considerable talk among local officials
me executive officers of local lines are
fast coming to the conclusion that the pro-
posed rate is too high. 1t has been pointed
out to them that, a matter of policy, at
least they should give to the government a
rate very little in advance of the actual
cost Of transporting the troops
The reads have been asking congress for
years for the passage of pooling bills, anti
scalping bills and other legislation, and un-
less they show disposition to help the gov
ernment in this their petitions will not
be. received so favorably.
A feeling of patriotism has swayed the
majority OF roads however. The Omaha road
was the most energetic and emphatic member
OF the Western Passenger association in ex-
pressing its sentiments regarding the pro-
against the rate.
General Traffic Manager Hannaford. of the
Northern Pacific, authorized The G ! o e to
say that his line would not make a higher
rate than one cent for the transportation of
state troops.
The Milwaukee road has also whipped
around into line and in the transportation Of
the state troops today their rate will not
exceed one cent per mile.
IN, Inc general offices of many of the st. Paul
Chicago roads were visited yesterday by
prominent st. Paul citizens, who conferred
with the passenger officials in the effort to
secure a less transportation rate for the
troops. They were assured that the two
cen cent rate would not be applied. It is be-
1eved that the executive officials will veto
a two-cent rate if it is made by the asso-
cation.
Nearly every railroad in the United States
is willing at any time to run a special train
1or anybody at a rate of 81 per mile. il is
estimated that LOCO mics will be the average
distance travelled by the 125, 900 soldiers cali
ed out by the president. If a rate Of two
cen ai,I mile is charged for each soldier by
the government will be $4,000 600. If the
trains Tram were chartered at a rate of 81 mile,
each train carrying only one-fourth of a
regiment, the cost of transporting the 100
regiments eIn az an average of LOCO miles would be
only 100000 If the railroads were paid at
the rate of 81 per mile for the trains in both
9 o. Sc Ion the expense would be $500 600 or
d,Iot, 900 less than if rate of two cents
mile was charged for the same transportation.
