RAILROADS BALK
. ON PROPOSED CUT
Refuse to Stand for Twenty Per
Cent. on Car Lots
THEY CALL ON DENEEN
TO HAVE THIS FEATURE OF THE
RATE REDUCTION RE-
OPENED.-HEARlN ON
DECEMBER 20.

Springfield, H., Dec. 20.--The cele'
brated Illinois freight rate case has
been reopened as to the sixth-class
carload lot schedule and the railroads
have been granted an opportunity to
present reasons why the 20 per cent.
reduction should not be made to ap-
ply to that class.
AS to all other classes of freight the
railroads have signified their accept.
anoe of the reduction, and the new
rates will go into effect January 81.
The rehearing on the car lot class will
be had on December 29.
A large delegation of railroad prasi-
dents and traffic managers, accomp-
anied by Chairman Neville and A. L..
French of the Railroad board, had a
three-hour conference with Governor
Deneen today, with the result that
the reopening of the case was granted
They declared that the petition of
the shippers had asked for reduction
only on the first five classes.
No evidence, they said, mad been
taken as to rates on car lots and the
railroads had made no defense to a re-
1uction ON that class. They were
greatly astonished to find in the order
for reduction that car lots had been
included. They presented volumnious
figures showing that in rates on car
lots, the schedule is already on the
same basis as in Indiana and Iowa and
that a 20 per cent reduction would
compel them to carry loads for al
most nothing. They argued that If the
reduction is made horizontal as to all
classes, rates on car lots such as coal,
lumber, building material and grain
and live stock, would have TO be
raised and the consumer would have
the increase to pay

GREAT SURPRISE

RIGHT THROUGH CAIRO
USING ITS OWN ROAD AND THE
BIG FOUR SYSTEM - WILL
MAKE VERY STRONG
COMPETITION.

New Orleans, La, Dec 20.-One OF
the greatest coup in railroad combi
nations in the south has been made
public through the announcement by
Colonel e. l.. Russell, vice president
of the Mobile and Ohio railroad. that
hfs line had formed traffic arrange
ment with the Big Four system, which
would enable the Mobile and Ohio
to run through trains from this city
to Chicago, via Cairo, Danville and
Kankakee, ILL.,, over route which, 1t
is said, will be forty-two miles short
er than the Illinois Central between
the same points
The announcement will come as a
complete surprise to railroad men all
over the country and will give New
Orleans another direct line with Chi
cago There is every probability that
as socn as the arrangement Is put In
to effect which will be sometime
early In the year, lively traffic will
result between the new line and the
Illinois Central which has for so
long had practical monopoly of the
New Orleans-Chicago direct business.
The Mobile and Ohio is to run both
through fast passenger and freight
trains between New Orleans and Chi
cago, and as the competition will be
very stong. local railroad men look
for a number of fast trains which
will break all records to be maugu.
