TIoeRs-eANTA FE PACIFIC.
Railway Boys Victorious In Ball Game
Yesterday


The base ball spirit of Albuquerque
is beginning to manifest itself In many
ways. A large crowd witnessed the
game between the Old Town Tigers
and the Santa Fe Pacific boys at fair
grounds yesterday afternoon, which
resulted in a victory for the shop
boys. notwithstanding the wind was
blowing an uncomfortable gale the
ball players put up fairly good game.
The score was 10 to in favor of the
shop boys. II was plainly evident from
the beginning that the Santa Fe boys
had the best OF the game.
The First Regiment band appeared
on the street and collected large
crowd for the game, but the music
ceased after the game began, and the
cries for music never touched their
ears, but was carried away by the
sandy wind storm
Moore and Wilson were the bat
tories for the Santa Fe. while Rahms,
Gallegos and Brown were doing the
heavy work for the Tigers. The pitch
ers on both sides did good work.
Moore being all there on delivery and
the Tigers pitcher on speed.
There was much interest displayed
In the game. and there is promise of
considerable activity in baseball do

WOOL RATES GO UP.
Western Roads Made Vigorous Pro.
test

A snarl mas arisen over the action
of the eastern railroads in advancing
the freight rates on wool. II is as
serted that efforts were made to avoid
publicity in connection with the in.
creased tariff in order to delay the in
eyitable protests of the western lines
and the shippers until the change had
gone into effect.
Already the western lines are max
ing their protests and their objections
are couched in the most vigorous fash
ion. The eastern roads, however, man
ifest no disposition to recede and as.
sert that their action was forced by tho
avarice OF the western systems in ex-
acting an unjust hare of the tariff.
They point out that while the lines
west OF Chicago and ST. Louis hauled
the wool not more than 1000 miles
their share of the rate was more than
four times as great as the proportion
allowed the eastern roads for hauling
the same freight just half as far.
The new tariI went into effect
March /. Before that date the through
rate was 81 each for each 900 pounds.
OF this the western lines received s164
and the reads making the haul to the
seaboard got SO cents. The eastern
lines have made the advance by trans
ferring wool from the commodities
schedule TO the general classification,
washed wool going into the first class
and unwashed wool into the third
class.
The advance thus effected in the
tariif from Mississippi river baslng
points TO the seaboard Is estimated at
10 per cent The western roads will
either have to reduce or advance their
rate to secure relief through the Cen.
trail Freight association. 1t is suggest.
ed that joint meeting OF eastern and
western lines might succeed in adjust
ing the tangle.

WORLDS FAIR RATES.
Trunk Lines Make Rates for Trans
portation Of Exhibits.

The st. Louis committee OF the
western trunk lines met at the Office
OF the chairman, Freight Traffic Mana
ger Dodge, OF the Frisco, says a tele
gram from st. Louis.
The principal matter considered was
the freight charge of exhibits to and
from the worlds fair and the rules and
regulations governing shipment TO and
from the fair Director Ristlne OF the
worlds fair transportation depart.
ment. II Ia understood, has fixed the
rate for hauling the exhibits. construc.
iiu,4 materials, etc, at 9 cents per 100
pounds over the grounds from the en-
frances to the various buildings. The
western lines will haul the freight To
ST. Louis at regular tariff and in the
case OF exhibits which do not change
ownership the exhibits will be return
ed free of charge. A switching charge
will be maze by the lines whlch haul
the exhibits 10 the entrance of the
grounds. This is following out the
plan adopted at the Chicago worlds
fair in 1898.
The st. Louis lines agreed to notify
Chairman Mahoney OF the western

IL was not proposed to absorb the
