Why He Did Not Attend the Passen-
ger Meeting at St. Paul.
w. R. Galloway. general passenger agent
OF the 500, did not attend the meeting of
the Western Passenger association at St
Paul yesterday. 1t was the original inten-
ton to have the meeting in Chicago, and Mr.
Galloway was asked to be present He re-
piled that he could not go to Chicago at the
time fixed Then the meeting place was
changed to St. Paul. and Mr.. Galloway was
again invited to attend. His reason for rot
doing SO was expressed In about the following
language:
u was not consulted by the Minneapolis
Chicago lines when they cut passenger rates
to the present figures. and do not see that it
Is necessary to be taken into the confidence
of those lines when they want to restore
rates: When ] asked to redeem return por-
tions Of round-trip ticketh sold at existing
rates, took the position that hod not been
responsible for cutting the rates to the East
in the first place, and was mot ready to buy
back unused portions. When the Chicago
lines cut passenger rates they could not blame
the 500 for meeting them, because it is the
policy OF our line to continue to do business
even II It be necessary to meet rates made
by competitors. When the Chicago lines get
ready to restore rates let them proceed to do
so, and mot ask the advice Of the 500 on
the subject

AS THE LAW DIRECTS.
Western Passenger Association Will
Be ReOrganized Along New Lines.


Be Reorganized Along New Lines.
There will be a general mass meeting in
Chicago tomorrow of the members Of the
Western Passenger association to consider
the reorganization of that body on lines con-
forming to the interstate commerce law. The
members will also devise ways and means
to bring into the organization those roads
that are not now in it, and in this connec-
tion one or two new associations may be
formed.
The Chicago Great Western. the Minneapo-
lis & st. Louis and the Wisconsin Central
are not members of the association. The
Chicago Great Western has held aloof be-
cause its officers do not seem to think much
Of such associations. The Minneapolis G. st.
Louis has remained outside for reasons Of
Its own. and the Wisconsin Central has kept
out because it is In the hands of the courts.
and while so situated the receivers do not
feel that they should enter into any organ
ization which may in any degree conflict
with the laws. 1t is understood that the
Minneapolis & ST. Louis is willing to Join
II the Chicago Great Western will do So and
the latter Is said to be willing under cer-
tain circumstances to unite with the other
roads,
There is also a proposition to get the
Northern Pacific and the Great Northern into
the association General Passenger Agents
Fee, of the Northern Pacific, and Whitney,
or the Great Northern, will both attend the
meeting, and will consider the matter.
Another plan is to segregate all lines west
OF the Missouri river from the association
and to form them into trans+Missouri as
ISOLATION, while the transcontinental roads
are to be organized into transcontinental
association. The Union Pacific is willing to
go into Tanscontfnental association, and
II the other transcontinental lines are will
ing to join with 1t such an association will
be formed - :
The reorganization plan which has been
drarted for the Western Passenger associa-
tion does not materially affect the associa-
tion as at present constituted but before
a plan Is adopted 1t must be discussed very
fully.
There is a meeting in Chicago today to
discuss through freight rates to this territory
from Pittsburg, Pa. -e

delegation that he would take the claims
urged under consideration, but informed the
members that there were others who were
making hard fight for the position of health
commissioner.
In fact. the mayor said he had not given
the matter of the appointment mature consid-

An audience of 300 persons attended the

ernoon.
DR.. A. B. Sweeney, Dr. Charles L. Greene
and DIR. B. H. Ogden, of ST. Paul, and Dr.
w. A. Hall. of Minneapolis were heard in
opposition to the bill.
The physicians opposing the measure took
the ground that the Osteopaths should not be
granted any special privileges. All persons
WHO treated disease should be equally trained
and this could not be done by having differ
ent boards or standards. No one school should
be allowed to examine its candidates. There
was nothing in the bill to show that the same
men who taught in the colleges should not
be the examining board and the examination
for license should not be the same as an
examination for degree in osteopathy. II
there were two boards one or the other would
turn out men of less qualifications than the
other
The speakers in favor of the passage Of the
bill were Frank M. Wadsworth DR.. c. E..
