ROADS TO MAINTAIN
RATES TO MINNESOTA
St. Paul. Chicago Lines Agree
to Make no Concessions
During Summer

A meeting of the representatives OF
the Western Passenger association was
held last Friday at the offices of Gen.
eral Passenger Agent A. B. Cults Of
the Minneapolis & St. Louis in Mime
apolis. There were present at the
meeting representatives of all the Chi
eago-St. Paul lines and one from the
500.
The principal business before the
meeting was a motion to maintain full
tariff rates throughout the coming ex-
cursion season. This was unanimous
ly adopted to take effect next Friday.
The effect of the resolution, If IL was
seriously enacted, will be to keep the
Chicago-St-- Paul rate at tariff figures,
or s23 for the round trip, and will sim
ilarly affect a host of other rates into
this territory. That it will cut busi-
ness and travel to ST. Paul is a fore
gone conclusion, and when the matter
was brought TO the attention of nu-
merous business men OF ST. Paul a
hearty protest was entered.
The Commercial club directors meet
this noon to consider the auditorium
matter. and the iron clad rate resolu-
ton will be presented for consideration
along with other matters
The summer travel enjoyed by Min
nesota is one of the greatest advertising
items that the state has. Thousands of
travellers visit the Twin Cities and the
lake regions of the state each week
during the summer season. and here
tofore railroad rates have been made
attractive 10 the persons who wished
to visit Minnesota. This year Colorado
has the call with thearoads, partly be-
cause the haul is longer and partly on
account of recently made traffic agree
ments

North Dakota Is preparing to do hon.
or to the steamer Dakota of the Great
Northern Steamship company when the
giant arrives in Puget sound on her
first trip. While this Is not likely to
take place until June or July, the state
officers are already arranging their af-
fairs so that they may accompany Gov.
E. Y. Sarles to Seattle to welcome the
vessel.
The interest in the big ship is very
general in the Dakotas. and 1t is pro-
posed to raise a sum of money by pop
ular subscription and purchase silver
service for the ship or a clock similar
TO the one that was given the Mime
sofa when that great carrier was first
commissioned. A similar movement is
also on foot in South Dakota. but de-
velopments have not progressed as far
in South Dakota as they have in her
northern sister state.
1t is expected that the visiting party
from the Dakotas will number at least
fifty when the steamer sails into Sc

tain License to Sell
Drink

David p. Jones, the reform mayor OF
Minneapolis. has been enjoined from
breaking the law. The good people OF
Minneapolis have asked the district court
to assist in the government of the city.
Yesterday afternoon John II. Steele, an
attorney, served papers on the mayor re-
straining him from signing liquor license
granted to Charles r. Schrapps of Sixth
street south by the city council on Fri
day night. Under the state law IL is pro-
vided there can be no more than FIVE
saloons In a single block on the boundary
OF the patrol limits. This law was passed
at the behest of some of the liquor deal
ers on Sixth street, where there are five
saloons, and the proprietors have engaged
an attorney to resist the attempt Of Mr..
Schrapps, who operates a cafe. to secure
license to dispense strong drink to his
patrons.
The men who are resisting his attempt
TO secure a license stand upon the law
which the city attorney has said on sew
eral occasions is unconstitutional
The mayor has been ordered to show
cause on April 10 why he should not be
restrained from signing the license which
has been ordered issued by the city coun-
Gil
In the meantime demurrer may be In
terposed and then there will be an earlier
hearing of the merits of the case AT
present the mayor has been enjoined

the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul.
VIII be elevated to the post of passenger
traffic manager and placed in general
charge Of the passenger department and
all the other departments allied with il.
The Milwaukee is one of the few big
roads of the country that has no pas
senger traffic manager and the direc-
tors and officers, it is reported, came
TO the conclusion that as Mr.. Miller al
ways took such a prominent part in
the conferences of the passenger chiefs
OF the western roads, who generally
hold titles of more weight than that of
general passenger agent, that they
would raise him TO equal rank.
Vice President J. II. Hiland urged the
appointment Of Mr.. Miller at a recent
meeting of the board and this action
is said to have been decided upon at
that time.
Mr.. Miller is particularly well known
In st. Paul and is a frequent visitor
here. Who will get the post of general
passenger agent is uncertain, but il is
said that an officer of the line stationed
in the Twin Cities will be appointed
assistant general passenger agent.

.ELKINS PREPARES
Makes Plans for Hearing on
Rate Making
Globe Special Washington Service

Globe Special Washington Service
1417 G Street
WASHINGTON, D. c., April s.-Sen-
ator Stephen B. Elkins is making plans
for the hearing, which will commence
April IL, on the subject of government
ratemaking. The first few days will be
devoted to formulating some sort OF
programme which will enable those
who have cases to present TO get them
before the committee in systematic or
der.
1t is likely that the hearings will be
divided by subjects. One part of the
time will be devoted to private car
abuses and indirect methods for secur-
ing rebates, together with all legal and
other arguments on the question
whether the present Ellxins act is suf-
ficient to meet these evils, or whether
an amendment should be framed and
passed.
Another period of the hearing will
be devoted TO the general constitutional
question whether the federal govern
ment can exercise the ratemaking pow
er without coming into conflict with
that paragraph of the constitution
which forbids favoring the ports of one
state against the ports of another state.
A third period of the hearings will
doubtless be devoted to a discussion of
general principles of ratemaking. As
Stunning that the government is to in
dulge in making rates, il is the desire
of the committee to be informed as TO
what elements are to be taken into con-
sideration in making a rate, whether
mere mileage, or whether the grade, the
return haul, 1.-The water rate, the nature
of the commodity, the difficulty or ease
of handling, and competitive rates are
to enter into the determination of the
problem of fairness, or what of these
may be left out.
1t is said to be the desire OF Senator
Elkins that railroad presidents and rep
resentatives who are interested be more
prompt than they have been in re-
spending TO the invitation to present
their side of the controversy
To a recent visitor Senator Elkins
remarked:
The situation is more serious than
many railroad managers seem to I'M
derstand. A work of education must
be done, and now is the time to get at
It Many railroad men seem to think
that it is a-foregone copclusion that no
legislation will be passed, and they are
drawing into their holes. But they
don't understand all the possibilities Of
the situation. If they wait and fail to
make their case when they have the
opportunity they may find that they
have waited too long"
