RAILROADS.
THERE'S A BIG ROW.
Eastern Lines Won't Stand for Rate
Reductions by Western
Connections.
The 500 Stood Manipulations Till
Tired and Then Got Discon-
certingly Busy.

Chicago, June 12.-Western Passenger
association affairs have got into chaotic
condition. Unless some drastic measures
are at once taken by the executive officers
to cub the warlike propensities of some
s. of the general passenger agents, the asso-
citation is said to be sure to collapse, and
serious rate war in western territory
will follow.
The reduction in rates from the twin
cities to points in the east to meet the
low rates advertised day or two ago by
the 500 line has brought the ChicagoSt.
Paul roads into row with their eastern
connections The latter refuse to join
in the reduced rates. and the ChicagoS st.
Paul lines cannot assume the Whole
amount of the reduction.
The Grand Trunk. it is reported. re-
fuses to be bound by the action of the
other eastern lines, and will help its
western connections in their fight. This
may cause some Of the other eastern
lines to change their position.
Notice was given yesterday by the
Omaha. Milwaukee and Wisconsin Cen
trail railroads that to meet the competi-
ton Of the Burlington, which has adver-
tised a $13 rate from the twin cities tc
Chicago and return for June Is and a.
they would make the same rate.
Chairman Mcleod of the association
ruled that as the agreement contained nc

provisions for any roads meeting the COM
petition OF member he could not receive
tho notices of these roads.
The Burlington admits that 1t has adj
svertised the rate and justifies Its action
by the fact that as all roads are making
a $13. rate on the dates named from the
twin cities to Minneapolis and return on
account of the Woodmen's convention, 1t
could not consistently maintain a higher
rate to Chicago.
Why Galloway Got Busy.
AS indicated in the above dispatch, the
attitude of the 500 has been a potent
factor in the present disorganization, tho
w. r. Galloway, general passenger agent
of that line, puts the matter up to the
association roads themselves. 1t has been
four years since he found it advisable to
adopt drastic measures In retaliation for
rate manipulation by association roads,
but when he started out this time it was
with such vigor and such sleeve full
Of evidence that something dropped very
soon after he began to play out his hand.
Even since the Ekins law went into
effect there have been significant devel-
opments in regard to eastern rates. AT
last Mr.. Galloway made strong protest
to both associations in regard to recent
rate-cuts. Answers were. unsatisfactory.
The association chairmen averred that
they had no information In regard to a
one fare rate for the railroad trip to New
York city. They asked for particulars.
The 500 naturally considered it the duty
of the associations to dig this up when
the tip was given.
Mr.. Galloway will meet the cut rates.
He will MAINTAIN one fare for the round
trip to keep even with the other lines If
necessary, something less than a one fare
rate will be made. In other words, the
500 is determined and there is no tell
ing what it may yet do If the flooding OF
the local market with unused return
checks on round trips, from the east does
not cease.
A Case In Point.
Last Saturday a big party was taker
out of Minneapolis bound for the trans.
atlantic trip. They were originally booked
by the 500 line at $50 for theN round triI
to the seaboard-t1e tariff rate. The Chi.
cago line over which they travelled is re
ported to have given them $3.50 rate
for the round trip good for los or more
days.
The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1903-06-12

This brings up several troublesome
problems forethe local passenger men,.
Had the Chicago line right to make this
rate without notifying the Western Pas
senger association? A good many pas
:senger men believe that under the Ekins.
law a publication Of a ratesis not neces-
Fsary when the round trip tariff does not
cut the one-way rate. Another question
is this: why, when none 4of the other
roads showed a disposition to cut the
Soo's $50 rate, did the line involved make
a one-way rate when a $40 cut, or a fare
and third rate, would have secured
the business? II
The 500 Held Trumns
1t was the knowledge that the. 500 was
fully informed on this case and the way
the information was used by Mr.. Gala
way that appears to- have prompted the
eastern lines to repudiate the cut rate
tickets. The 500 promised to go the
cut rate SO much better that the pros
pect was alarming.
Chairman e. E. Macleod of the Central
association now wires that it's lines will
not accept tickets at this s27.5O rate. The
party of Saturday Is already on the high
| seas, but trouble is looming up for those
who take advantage of the rate hereafter
! and present the tickets to the central
lines-if Mr.. Macleod means what he
says.
NooNCidl pdSSclS0i lilcIl VI lIlS City edhO
the firm stand that the $3.50 rate is all
right; that such rate should prevail dur
Ing the summer season each year. They
cannot understand why less than round
| trip rates can be made for passengers
going towards the Pacific coast while the
fasteners who live in the west have no
! special concessions granted for trips home
| and to the seashore resorts.
| There is no doubt that the offending
roads will fall back on the N. e. A. as
an excuse for making these special rates.
| Whatever the excuse given it is Ger
tain that the 500 has permitted, without
more than verbal complaint methods of
/ its competitors which are deemed irreg-
ular. but that from this time forward the
1 protest will be more substantial. The
| 500 will be conservatively vigorous in its
| bid for eastern traffic.

circumstantial that it has had great
weight in the department. Mai. Scott
does not send an alarmist report He
says there is no immediate dangeer.
The plans of the Pillagers, as he un.
derstands them, is tc wait and see
how the Morris law works out. If it
is beneficial to the Indians, we'll and
