MANY CONVENTIONS AFFECTED.
Anti-Pass Agreement May Cause
Some to BE Abandoned.

Anti-PasS Agreement May Cause
Some to BE Abandoned.
It is not improbable that the conven-
tionS of many Of the big technical Socie-
ties and organizations connected with
the railroads of the country may be
abandoned this year on account of the
anti-pass agreements of the transporta-
ton companies. .....
Scores of these gatherings occur every
year. 1t has never been customary for
the railroads to pay the expenses of their
delegates to the conventions, but this
has been no bar to attendance for the
reason that passes to and from the places
of meeting were always given the repre-
Senta tives.
This year the railroad men who attend
the conventions will be obliged to pay
their fares in addition to their other ex-
penses.
the principal conventions, with places
and dates, that will be affected, are as
follows:
American Railway Engineering. and
Maintenance of Way Association-Chica-
go. March.
Master Car Builders Association-sar-
atoga N. Y, June.
Association of Railway Telegraph Su-
erintendents-Boston, Mass, June.
Train Dispatchers' Association - Pitts
burg, Pa, June
National Railway BlacksmithS' Asso-
ciation-Chicago, August.
Roadmasters' and Maintenance of Way
Observation-Disclosures. Wis. September.
Travelling Engineers association.
Master Car and Locomotive Painters
Observation-Disclosures, Mass, September
Association of Railway Air Brake Men.
Railway Signal club.
Besides these there have been called
meetings of the General Passenger
Agents association. general baggage
agents, accountants, claim agents, car
service agents and number of others.
It is probable that one of the meetings
called to meet in cities east of Pittsburg
or Buffalo will be abandoned for the rea-
son that the roads west of these two
places will issue passes.
Those to be held west of the dividing
line. however, may be called off or the
places of meeting changed to points in
the eastern trunk line territory. This Cor
the reason that those who attend from
points east of Pittsburg and Buffalo will
be forced to pay railroad fare and it is
desired to oblige them to travel as short
distances as possible.

Notwithstanding the many announce

by the officials of the Chicago Great
Western railway, the full plans OF the
road have not yet been made public.
AT many points in Iowa there is con-.
siderable grade that must be eliminated
in order to put the road on basis to
compete with the other lines running be-
tween here and Chicago. These grades
will be reduced in almost every instance.
New rails of eighty-pcund steel have
been ordered and will be laid between

b., c. r.. & N. FINANCES.
The Road Will Continue Upon 6 Per
Cent RaSfs

The board Of directors of the Burling-
ton. Cedar Rapids & Northern has
recently announced that the regular
semi annual dividend of per cent with
l per cent extra would continue, placing
the road upon a six per cent basis, as II
has been for the past two years.
In 1899 dividends were on basis of 8
per cent Nearly one-third of the net
increase in that year, $97,3OS, was due
to a decrease in expenses. The directors
report the prospects good for continu-
ance of the present earnings, and that
the conditions in the Northwest in rela-
ton to the road are prosperous.
Application has been received by the
Stock Exchange to list $553,00O additional

COLORADO RATE WAR.
Western Roads Are Busy Fighting
Each Other.

The Denver & Southwestern railroad,
operating in the Cripple Creek district
Of Colorado, is passing through a rate
war which, though disastrous while it
lasts, is expected to place the company
in stronger position in the end than
itNhas yet occupied. The rate war has
been going on since early in November,
and it has naturally resulted in consid-
erably reduced earnings, but increased
traffic. This war is the direct result Of
the building Of the Cripple Creek Short
line in the territory of the Denver &
Southwestern. The Southwestern road
is in strong position to enter the fight,
as, although the earnings have been at
the rate of over 20 per cent on the S.
COO, 600 stock of the company after the
payment of fixed charges on IS, 500, 900 5
per cent bonds, the company paid only
small dividends, and has today a sur
plus of about $500,00O and through sink

: KALISPELL, Mont, Jan. 2O.-Field
agent Odin G. Clay of the Great North
ern railroad was in Kalispell recently
from St. Paul to see David r. McGin-
mis- about plans in Connection with the ex-
tension of stock yards on the line at
Galata, Mont. The present yards cover
nearly two acres, with five stock chutes,
but the arrangements effected by Mr..
Clay with Mr.. McGinnis will enable the
company to add five acres more to the
yards, which is required by the rapidly
increasing cattle and sheep shipments
from the Sweetgrass hills and the Marias,
which, on account of the living water
in Willow creek, must all be handled
from Galata. Besides the contemplated
extension of the yards plans are under
consideration for a new depot on the
north side of the four sidetracks that
are used for the shifting of cars in the
Galata yards. The additional space Sc
cured by the company will give ample
room for the erection of dipping tanks,
Shearing sheds and branding chutes,
which will be erected by private parties.

making a fiat rate of 81 per ton through
