In Chicago yesterday the Western Pas
senger association decided to increase the
rates on homeseel1ers' traffic from one
fare plus 81 to one and one-third fare for
the round trip. 1t is alleged that all of
the transcontinental lines except those of
the Southwest Passenger association
have agreed to this change, but inquiry
at the Northern Pacific. Great Northern
and 500 discloses the fact that none of
these roads have entered into such an
agreement. 1t has been the practice of
the Western Passenger association in the
past, to meet and resolve and trust that
the roads will fall into the trap laid for
them, but in this case it seems to have
been labor in vain. The Northern trans
continental lines have a different inter-
est to serve than the lines of the Central
west, in getting new settlers along their
lines, and they are decidedly opposed to
the methods adopted by the Western Pas
senger association. The fact that the
lines of the Southwest are not bound
by the agreement is in itself enough to
keep the Northern lines out of such an
agreement, and it is safe to say that the
action of the Western Passenger associa-
ton will be of no avail.
