ence talked chiefly OF the possibility
of finding some way by which fast

spreads. No one could arrive at any

and II was the general opinion that
if passenger rates busting keeps up
there will not be anything leaving
New York for the middle states ex-

York state leaves passenger rates
alone" said one of the passenger
agents. 1--WE can find some way OF
