THEY DO NOT THINK so
Northern Railway Men Say That Texas Is
Not Attractive.
THEY WANT MORE BUSINESS UP THERE
District Passenger Agent IL 10 Re
Located mt waco--Mr. Uhlhorn RE-
signed--Notes and Personals.

Colonel S. F. B. Morse. passenger traf-
&c manager, who has been absent several
days in Chicago and St. Louis attending
meetings of railway officials. returned
yesterday morning.
One object OF the visit OF Colonel Morse
to the North was to confer with certain
passenger men OF other roads regarding
the transcontinental rate situation, 1t be-
ing charged that the Southern Pacihc
company Is responsible for demoralizs-
ton which is said to exist. Mr. E. o.
Mccormick, passenger traffic manager In
San Francisco Of the Southern Pacific, aud
Colonel Morse agreed to meet the repre-
sentatives of the various lines and confer
regarding this matter, and 1t was in Chi
caso last Tuesday that they came to-
gether. Colonel Morse found when the
conference opened that the grievances
were on the same lines as was mentioned
In The Post last Monday. II will be re-
membered that The Post stated that the
Chicago railway men are always READY u
say something against the southern route.
When Colonel Morse heard the oljecti4ns
he was forced to laugh. The passenger
men present one atter anOlner opJeCteu w
the Southern Pacific company advertising
Texas as beautiful country through
which to travel; they said the statements
made that to pass through the New Or
leans and Houston gateways TO the West
is to go through the garden spot OF the
Union, is misleading to the travelling pup
lie, and that 1t Is injustice to the people
to sell them tickets through Texas under
promises, of travel through pleasant To-
cality, because such is not the case, and
it is securing business under false pre-
lenses In other words. it developed that
the Sunset route Is taking the transcop-
tinental business. 1t Is being hauled
through Texas to the great disadvanta &c
of the MOI thern route. and the northern
route people who are not getting the bust
ness are displeased. That was all that
| developed, and Colonel Morse left them
| to their chickering's, and adjourned the
meeting as far as his personal presence
was concerned.
Mr.. Mccormick told the Chicago pas
senger meeting that there was no COM
| pact between the Southern Pacific and the
! Santa Fe on California traffic. and that
! the Southern Pacific was DESTROYS OF dAtl'
| ing fairly and impartially with all the
Western lines. Mr.. Nicholson also said
| that the Santa Fe and the Southern Pa
! cific were not arrayed against the field
