Journed without definite action of anv
value. The results were far from being
as satisfactory as had been Anticipated
and the ST. Paul railroad officials who
attended We're much disappointed. No
settlement Of the disturbed conditions
was effected. General Passenger Agent
Whitney, Of the Great Northern, who at
tended the sessions, returned Yesterday
and says Of the conference:
Nothing was done which will have anv
considerable power in changing condi-
lions. The agents talked the situation
over, but agreed on no course Of action.
California rates are in an unsatisfactory
condition, the differentials Of weak East
ern lines making it impossible for the
Western lines to get together with them
on any plan to maintain harmony. The
personally conducted excursions have
disrupted affairs also and have captured
largo amount Of business which le1ttt-
mately belonged to the railroads"
