Against Rate Reduction.

Atlanta, Ga.
The recent proposition Of ]. Pope
Brown, Chairman of the Georgia Rail-
road Commission, to reduce the passcn-
ger rate in Georgia from three to two

gineers, the Order of Railway Conduc-
tors, and unions of the blacksmiths,
machinists, photographers, boilermakers,

A reduction in freight rates on the
Panama railway was suggested to Sec
rotary Taft by the ministers in Wash
ington Of the republics in Central
America and on the west coast of
