BENEFIT TO TOPEKA.

Chicago. March 8.-Western railroads
have decided practically to make whole
sale reductions in all class rates from
the eastern seaboard to the Missouri
river territory. These viii be followed
BY similar reductions in rates between
Chicago and the Missouri river and be-
tween the Mississippi river and the Mis-
souri, river. Such a reduction Of rates
will be Of material benefit to all points
west Of the Missouri river. Topeka and
surrounding places especially.
A proposition for the reduction of the
rates was presented at meeting Of the
western executive officials held here
and a conference has been called for
Tuesday next between the railroad Of
Gals and the Missouri river JObbing
interests to further discuss the sttua-
ton. The proposed reductions VIII cost
the railroads many millions annually in
loss Of revenue. Western traffic men
believe that it is the part Of wisdom to
make the proposed reductions before the
shippers take their case before the IN
terstate commerce commission.
The action of the executive officials
at Chicago yesterday probably means
that Kansas City Is to be made a bas-
ing point Kansas City rates now are
made up Of the rate from the seaboard
or other eastern terminals to Chicago or
the Mississippi river, plus the rate from
there to this city For many years
Kansas city, through the transporta-
tton bureau has been insisting that
this city should be made a basing line
BY the railroads. and yesterdays action
IN Chicago seems to hold out the first
great promise that this may be achieV-
ed.
What Kansas City has insisted upon
has been a scale of rates from the east
which will place this city upon prop
err basis relatively with Chicago and st.
Louis to be made without regard to
the combination through either gate
way In considering application Of rates
to points of ultimate destination. In a
recent address before the Comm rcial
club. j. c. James. chairman of the
importation bureau, referring to this
matter, said:
establishing a scale of proportional
rates to apply from Chicago and st.
Louis only on business originating east
of the Indiana-IllinOis state line when
destined to the Missouri river or west.
Such an arrangement would not dis
turb the present Mississippi river-Chi-
cago base line in the distribution Of
traffic. nor would it seriously affect the
rate fabric OF the west.
"To illustrate. The present rate on
first class. New York to Kansas City
IS 91-47. which is made up Of the local
TO ST. Louis. 81 cents. plus 60 cents,
beyond. Our through rate should not
exceed 1927. which would make the
proportional rate from St. Louis 40
cents. Chicago so cents to the Missouri
river, as against present rates Of sol
and so cents respectively. This ap-
pears to be the only logical solution of
our difficulties, and, IL granted, viii
serve TO settle a controversy Of years
standing"

FOR NEW FREIGHT TERMINALS.
Company incorporated to Build Them
in Kansas CITY


Formal plans for an important rail-
road Improvement in Kansas City were
completed yesterday wheT- the Edge
water Connecting Railway company Sc
cured a charter from the state charter
board. The company is capitalized for
$500, 600. It is to cooperate with the
Edgewater Terminal company which
was Incorporated in Jefferson City, Mo-,
in 1900.
The incorporates of the new company
include B. P Waggener and J. W. Orr,
both officials of the Missouri Pacific
and officials of the Great Western COM
pany Mr.. Waggener said last night
that an agreement had been reached by
which the Missouri Pacific and Great
Western would use the new terminals.
The terminals, it is understood, are to
be built Jointly by Mr.. Meriweather and
his associates. and the Missouri Pacific
and Great SVestern railroads.
The project is the building Of inde-
pendent terminals for the handling of
freight along the Missouri river front
from the north city limits of Kansas
City. Kan. to Broadway on the river
front in Kansas City, Mo. The carry
ing out of the immediate plans viii give
the Chicago Great Western, the MIS-
souri, Pacific lines from the north and
the Kansas City, WyandOtte & North
western railroad easy and direct en-
trance into Kansas City, Mo. On the
Missouri side Of the river the independ-
ent terminal will connect with the FRS
co railroad at Santa Fe street and the
Kansas City Southern Belt railroad on
the river front besides furnishing con-
nection between the north and east lines
of the Missouri Pacific at Broadway.
The new terminal railroad will be
two miles long and viii occupy the 100
acres reclaimed from the river front by
the Federal Investment company, an
auxiliary company.
