MAY ABOLISH PASSES
Plan Favored BY Salt Lake Railway
Officials.
ST. LOUIS CONVENTION
PASS PROBLEM SCHEDULED FOR
RESURRECTION.
Problem That Has Perplexed Rail-
way Men For Years-Enter Into
Solemn Compacts, Which Are
Forgotten as Soon as They Re-
turn Hone-New Train Schedules.

The annual resurrection of the pass
problem is scheduled to occur at the
meeting of the western pass agreement
committee to be held in st. Louis on
the oath inst. This problem has seem
railroad men grow gray in the service;
it is as difficult of solution as the qua
drature of the circle, and has caused al
most as many steepless nights to those
who have hoped to solve it. Year at
ter year the representatives of the rail-
roads interested in the eternal ,ques-
ton have assembled and listened to the
most soothing and persuasive speeches
and arguments against the Ubiquitous
practice of granting deadhead privil
eyes to unthankful officials and the
equally ungrateful public. The mighty
agents of vast systems have sworn
solemnly to uphold each other, and the
demure agents of little jerk-water
roads have been frighteped into sub
mission by the all-poWerful ones. They
all enter into a solemn compact to keep
in the narrow paths of virtue, and as
soon as they get home they look for
the handiest grave in which to inter.
the resuScitated compact, and straight
way proceed to rip each other up the
back.
All of the local passengers agents
were interviewed about this momentouls
question yesterday. and evolved as
many shades of opinion concerning its
solution as there are changes tos be
rung on the letters of the alphabet. The
only unanimfty was that the deadhead
business was the most Improbable one
in the world, and the continuous imror-
tunities on the part of the public--ac-
cent on the public-a species of night
mare; that the only solution to the
problem was the abolishing of all
passes; a fair field and no favor,
1t is understood that the delegates to
the st. Louis convention will be I'M
structed to advocate the doing away
with passes entirely; if it goes through
they will have the felicity of setting a
noble example by putting up the cash
for the return trip.
