OF CANADA the question OF passenger
d~ifferentials having e decided by the
Interstate commerce commission a few
weeks ago.
Another warfare OF Western passen-
ger rates appears to be imminent. The
Burlington. IL Is alleged. has been using
. one-fare rate for the round trip be-
tween Omaha n Colorado points. and
has been securing a large business ow-
ing to the number OF strangers who
visit the exposition city. The Alton and
the Santa Fe have taken exceptions to
these low rates and have put in Xix
charges between Kansas City and the
same Colorado points. The action of all
has incensed the Union Pacific. which
has given notice that unless the low
rates are withdrawn II will put In an
open rate of m fare for the round trip
between Omaha IND Western points.
This would tear down the whole fabric
Of Western passenger rates. and the
railroad officials are not a little alarm
ed over the prospect. The Union Pacific
has set Oct. Is as the date for Its open
reductions. II II hoped that the matter
may be amicably adjusted before that
time.

IT IS MAD VOLUNTARILY
An Advance Concession to the Coming
Recommendation Pacific Earn
ings-Raiiroads OF the
World.

The Northern Pacific Is so far the
only Montana railroad to a
reduction Of the passenger rate In this
but the other roads will likely be In line
when the new rate goes into effect on
the first of November.
The reduction has been talked about
for six months" said Major Dawson of
the Great Northern yesterday. and IL
will go into effect on all a at the
same time. although I have not yet re-
ceived notice of IT,"
Another prominent official made the
statement yesterday that the reduction
of the passenger rate made voluntarily
by the railroads is apparently as an
advance concession to the coming leg
islature in anticipation of a renewal OF
the agitation for low rates in Montana.
In view of the reduction offered by ehe
railroads II is expected that the legis-
lature will not take up the question,
and will be satisfied with the new rate
made by the railroads.
The Union Pacific reports earnings
for the six months ending June 30. as
follows: Gross, $7,670,519; net, $780,
