ROADS CUT RATES.
Many Lines File Special Tariff Sheets
With Commerce Commission.

Advices received here from the agent Of
the Western railroads at Washington
show that a number of railroads have
lately been filing reduced tariffs with the
Siderable BE ANXIETY is MANIFESTED by rail-
road officials over the prospect Of repe-
tition of the conditions that prevailed
prior to Jan. last, when over J. 100 tariffs
giving reduced rates on various articles
of freight were on file at the interstate
commerce commissions office. Most Of
the tariffs lately filed give reduced rates
on export grain and flour from Chicago to
Liverpool. via the Illinois Central and
New Orleans. The inland rate is not
quoted and therefore it cannot be deter
mined how much of cut the railroad
has made.
The Elkins law provides that the in
land rates must be quoted, and the New
York roads are doing so on exports via
that city, but the Illinois Central ignores
the law on exports via New Orleans and
quotes the through rates only.
