| The railroad companies say that
they we're never more liberal in grant
inc excursion rates than they have
been in dealing with the Buffalo ex-
position and yet the public thinks the
Worlds Fair rates were considerably
lower. The average round trip rates
with long time return privilege, ID
little more than two cepts mile. A
rate of about one and half cents
mile is made when the return limit
for what are known as coach excur-
sions rate of cent a mile is made.
IL Won go to Buffalo by one route,
you must return by the same route,
You cannot for illustration, 60 via
the b. & o. and return via the
Pennsylvania on the same ticket.
Such a privilege, which was en-
joyded during the Worlds Fair,
would enable the traveller to
see the beauties of the scenery Of
the two routes But there was mo

road world in 1892.
