ARGUMENT OF WISCONSIN CEN.
TRIAL ROAD
TW0-CENT HEARING HELD
representations of Roads Nearly All.
Observation-Disclosures or One
Road Would Effect Others Through
Compettion-Dects on North
Fond du Lac Matter.

The Wisconsin Central Railroad com
pany had its hearing on the two-cent
passenger rate petition before the
railroad rate commission. T. H. Gill,
attorney and tax commissioner of the
road. was in charge Of the presenta-
ton of the company's case. Others
present representing the company
were E, P. Potter, general superin-
tendent; c. w. Kalk. chief engineer;
Robert Toombs, comptroller and audi
tor; ]. C. Pond, general passenger
agent. and z. G. Kuehnl, chief clerk.
The hearing was largely the presen-
tation of statistics, following the sche-
dulles of the Northwestern road. Mr..
Toombs was on the witness stand a
large portion of the day.
1t was represented that reduction
of passenger rates would be particul-
arly hard on the Wisconsin Central,
and that even though the reduction
were made by the commission to apply
on'.- - The larger and more profitable
roads, the rates on the Central and
smaller roads would be necessarily
effected by competition. Therefore
the Wisconsin Central is not only re
sisting a reduction order applying to
itself, but hopes that no reduction will
be made on any roads.
Low Rates and Traffic Volume.
Mr.. Gill was asked the question by
Commissioner Barnes, if, in view OF
the fact that the average length oil
travel of passengers is quite short, be
| ing nineteen miles on some roads. a
reduction on a large road would neces
sarily hurt small road. Mr. Gill
said that rates reduced on the large
roads would certainly bring dow the
rates on the small roads.
Mr.. Barnes also asked the question
whether the reduction of PASSENGER
rates would not increase and stimuli.
ate passenger travel The answer was
decidedly no. Mr.. Gill said that re,
duced maximum fare would not ap.
preciably increase the volume of traf
fic. He cited the case of the Milwau-
kee street railroad giving a reduction
to four cents a ride, six rides for %
cents or 25 for dollar. This did not
increase traffic and resulted. it is
claimed, in loss of revenue of some
$500 a day,
The hearing of the Burlington will
be held to-day and after the filing OF
some additional statistics by some of
the roads, the hearings win be closed
and the commission will make its in
dependent examination of the question.

will probably bring Governor Hoch's plurality down to 1000 or less. The democratic campaign managers now readily concede the election of Hoch. but claim that his plurality will be considerably less than>2 900.
 Now that the first disappointment of defeat has worn off, the democratic state leaders declare that they are highly elated over the showing made by the party at Tuesdays election and claim that the cutting down Of Hoch's plurality of nearly 67,00O in 1904 to less than 1000 in 1906 is in itself a great vic tory. The democratic gains in the low CT house of the state legislature have not seriously disarrauged the lineup of the members on the senatorial Ques- tion and it is probable that Congress- men Charles Curtis of the first district will go before a caucus of the repUb- lican members of the house and senate with more votes than any other candi-
