NO MORE RATE WARS.
Commissioner Goddard Discusses
Future Railroad Amfty.

ENSSIAFOil0 AmItY.
WASHINGTON, March 2O.-Commas-
sloner J. T. Goddard, of the Trunk Line
association, was asked today IL he shared
the pessimistic views expressed by Inter
state Commerce Commissioner Martin
Knapp regarding the railway rate sit
uatiOn.
mo, I do not" said Mr. Goddard. 'I
have no evidence that the rate situation
Is as bad as it has been reported. There
has been no trouble with West-bound
rates. The situation in that respect was
never better than it Is now. All the
roads are sticking to the standard tariff,
and business is good. With regard to
East-boun rates I have heard no COM
plants Of irregularity on the part Of
any OF the trunk lines. A few weeks ago
there was more or less cutting of grain
rates from Chicago and St. Louis, but
from all I can learn the situation is mend
ing The principal railroads interested
have just agreed upon a slight advance
sn grain rates, effective April l. That GER
sain!y does not look as if there was a
sisposition to wage a rate war. In my
opinion the period of railroad rate wars
has gone by. I do not believe that we
shall see any more such rate disturbances
Rs We used to have. The community of
Interests which now prevails among the
principal lines is a safeguard against rate
wars. The interchange of representation
in the various railroad directorates can
not fail to operate advantageously. The
railroad interests are brought closer to-
gether, ard there is less chance FOR mis-
understandings and differences of opin-
Ion.
The new free classification is working
very we'll. The notifications made by the
classification committee appear to give
satisfaction. AT amy rate, I hear no COM
plants regarding general advances, which
are very slight. On tonnage, such as sugar,
soap, etc, some advance was consid-
cred justified. On the general freight
tonnage the advance is slight. While not
prepared to speak with eXactness, l will
venture to guess that in the main the adj
Vances in rates on general freight will
not exceed one cent for 100 Mounds,

large increase in cash was shown py the

in consequence did not make a striking rally

A poIicy of caution and conservatism Is being

ators This is a wholesome sign that VIII lead

There are certain uncertainties in the situation

BANKS HOLDINGS AND. MONEY.

The local banks rapidly building up their
cash resources, and they have reached posi-
ton where loan contraction is no longer necessary.
In the last week cash holdings increased nearly
100000, and the operations covered by the
weekly statement included about 100000 of gold
exports. 1t may readily be how radical
change has taken place in the movement of money
in relation to New-York. Currency receipts from
the interior running heavier than in any
spending time in many years, and If it were not
for recent gold exports cash reserves would
be we'll above COO AS it is the local banks
hold in actual cash S19S 996 GEO. and surplus above
legal requirements OF S7577@. against s23 $50 375
year ago Current loans $50 coo less than at
this time last year, and deposits about SIS 900
less Surplus increased s5ss.s5O last week
creased 81 07 600 and deposits S. 06 The outlook
for the immediate future does not favor low money
rates but the market ought not to rule above 5
or per cent. An authority on the foreign ex-
change market makes the following summary of
the exchange situation: The advance in sterling
last week most pronounced in sixty day bills
but the greatest advance of all made in
Continental exchange. due to a proportionatey
great decline in the price Of sterling in Paris and
Berlin, while the advance in sixty day sterling was
due to easier discounts in London -tnow 4lad4g per
cent, against 7G7hs per cent fortnight ago) This
easier discount in London in it's turn, seems to be
the direct result Of our gold shipments from here
and which, from all appearances, will continue as
long as the Transvaal war lasts. Even cotton has
been affected by the ups and downs of the British
armies in the field TO such a degree that ship
ments to Europe have been seriously interfered
with and for the last few days show quite a con-
siderable diminution Grain and provisions on the
other hand have been moving freely. The supply
from that source, however. is not nearly sufficient
to offset the returns securities from abroad
Gold therefore, must be shipped. England needs
IT. and this country has lots of IT 10 spare why
not supply it as long as II does not Inconvenience
to do so? The Bank of England facilitates the
movement by advancing the money for fourteen
days at 2Ik per cent which. at present prices for
cable transfers, leaves the shipper quite a good
profit the operation"
