RATE WAR POSSIBLE
G. G. w. Makes Kansas City-Chicago
Grain Rate. ........

=; Chicago, May 22.-The rate Of Z cents
on grain from Kansas City to: Chicago,
established by the Chicago Great Western
yesterday opened up the possibilities of a
rate war in the southwest. The new fig
ure was fixed because Of alleged cutting
of the rates from Kansas City to the gulf
ports. These have been considered prop
erly higher than that from Kansas City
to Chicago because when received at the
Gulf ports the freight is no longer subject
to expensive land transportation and gets
the benefit of ocean figures. The Great
Western alleges that the gulf lines have
not maintained this higher rate. The
movement of grain from the western por-
ton Of the country to Chicago has been
light recently. This has been partly at
tributed to short grain supply

Outside of City Limits.
At the meeting of the West End Improve
nent association last evening County Sur
veyor Cooley lamented the fact that the last
half mile OF all roads leading into Mime
apols were in almost impossible shape dur
ing wet weather. He suggested that the
council be asked to remedy >the condition,
claiming that better facilities for entering St.
Paul attracted many farmers to that town
who would otherwise come here. AS an argu-
ment in favor of nlacadamizing roads he said
that the cost Of hauling over such roadbeds
was but cents per mile, while on ordinary
roads it was Is cents.

association to cease acquiring additional
property until the present holdings can be
