Freight officials are disposed to think that
the failure of the executive officials to end
the grain rate war means general democrat
ization Of rates in the West and Northwest,
probably extending to central traffic and
trunk lines, ana the most disastrous rate
war of years will follow. The committee
appointed to settle the trouble has aban-
doned the attempt. Failure to end the
war is attributed to the Chicago & North
western, which refuses to recede from it's
position and makes a declaration that it
will persist to the end in preserving an
adjustment of rates through Omaha which
would enable the company to haul grain
originating on the lines west of Omaha
through to Chicago instead of leaving ii at
Omaha to be competed for by all lines.

saved. The company's loss cannot be esti-

Every record was in the main building with
the exception of the car record, which is
kept at the Camden Station. 1t is said that
many of these records cannot be replaced,
but all the subordinate officers at every
location on the system will be called upon
to make duplicates of their records with a
view of replacing as fast as possible the

Earnings Studied with Interest.

The course of railway earnings win be
watched with great interests the next six
months. Earnings, both gross and net, be-
gan increasing in 1897 and have continued
to increase every year since. A few months
ago several of the leading railroad systems
like the Pennsylvania and the New York
Central-began reporting decreases in net
earnings as a result of the large increas Sc
in operating expenses. More recently num-
Der of large roads have been reporting de-
creases in gross earnings, but the winter
has been so severe it is too early now to
say how much significance should be at
tached to these decreases.
