ST. PAUL-CHICAGo RATES.
They Are Admittedly in an Alarm
ing Condition.

CHICAGO, June 5.-Passenger rates in
the West are admittedly in a serious
condition. Between Chicago and St
Paul the scalpers are doing the bulk of
the business at cut rates and the bien-
NAL convention of Modern Woodmen of
America, which meets at Kansas City,
this week. is enabling the brokers to
traffic. Excessive commissions are be-
ing paid all over the West and the gen.
eral situation Is rapidly becoming worse
Small hopes are entertained that the
meeting of general passenger agents,
called for tomorrow, will do much good
and conservative lines are anticipating
a good deal of trouble before harmony
is restored.
During the last four months the West
ern lines have held meeting after meet
ing for the purpose of adopting a revised
agreement for the Western passenger
associations. AS many separate meet
ings have been held, too, to round up the
affairs of the Western immigrant bureau
which have been in an unsatisfactory
condition for some time. No definite
good has come out of these gatherings
The points at issue appear to be no near
er a settlement than they were when the
first meeting was called. Some of the
officials, too, declare that certain lines
show plainly that they do not really wish
that any agreement should be reached,
but would prefer that matters should
go on as they are. The situation prom
tSes to grow worse and an open cut by
some of the lines is likely to be made
unless an agreement is reached.

GREAT WESTERN PLANS.
VIII Make the Most of Its New
Acquisition.

The fact that the Milwaukee must put
forth every effort to meet new conditions
III Southern MinnesOt is becoming evil
dent to those familiar with movements
in railroad circles. The territory has for
many years been entirely in the hands
OF the great Chicago-St. Paul road, with
no competition worthy Of the name
Events of the past month have changed
previous conditions. however, and the
Milwaukee has been suddenly brought
face to face with new and strong COM
petition for freight and passenger bust
ness in the Chicago Great Western.
The purchase Of the Wisconsin, Mime
sofa & Pacific from the Minneapolis &
St Louis at first gave rise in railroad
circles to considerable criticism of the
Great Westerns policy. Events of the
past week have changed the course of
adverse criticism and demonstrated that
If properly handled. the new branch will
not only be a money maker, but will open
up and deVelope a territory which, from
the nature of the construction and di-
rection of lines traversng it, has never
had proper facilities. UnSer the control
OF the Minneapolis & St. Louis the Can
non Valley branch was not adequate to
the reeds of the section which it crossed.
The first effect of the Great Westerns
management of the line is noticeable in
the fact that though it passed into their
spur into the business portion of Fari-
bault is under course Of construction
new yard facilities and a new depot at
Mankato are contemplated, and a branch
to tap the rich dairy country of southern
Steele county, passing from Faribault
through Owatonna to Hayfield, Dodge
county, is practically assured.
These changes and improvements give
the branch great advantage over the
Milwaukee in handling Faribault's freight
business. and make it a dangerous COM
petitor all along the line. The Owatonna
branch will give Faribault as direct line
to Chicago via the Great Western as 1t
now has by any other route, and would
draw a heavy passenger business. En-
gineers have been studying the topogra-
ply of the country from Mankato west
to Watertown, 8. D., for several weeks,
which gives reasonable assurance that
the rumors of Dakota extension are not
entirely groundless.
President Stickney personally MAIN
tains silence regarding his plans for South
ern Minnesota. To all inquiries he has
returned the invariable reply that the
time has not come to announce policy
He has recently admitted, however, that
the roads plans regarding it's new ac-
QUESTION will ont only be calculated to
develop to the utmost the territory
through which it runs but will be vigor-
orouSly prosecuted. 1t is generally ad-
mitted among railroad men that President
Stickney is a man of sagacity and far
SightedneSS in railroad affairs, and that
his road is planned to be one of the great
est systems in the West when the culmi-
nation of projects now under serious con-
siGeration is reached.
