DAWSON IS SATISFIED.
Reduction in Pullman Rates Nearly All
That Was Asked.


The four attorneys general for the
states of Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas
and Indiana who declined to accept the
proposed reduction of 20 per cent in
upper berths offered by the Pullman
company at the Chicago hearing this
week are explaining the refusal to the
people at home. John Dawson. who
represented Kansas in this case, came
home today, and he declared that the
reduction offered suited him and his
state, but that the others were not sat
flied and that as the case was brought
Jointly by the four states he would
stick with the others and see it
through It was the strength of the
union that brought forth the cofhpro-
mise offer, argued Dawson, and it was
only right to follow the example set
by the railroads in so many seccussful
cases and get proposition that suited
everybody.
The proposed reduction affected To-
peka as follows: Topeka to Chicago,
upper berth reduced from 50 to g.
Dawson asked for s.. 50.
Topeka to Fort WORTH upper reduced
from $3.50 to 81 Dawson asked for
50. so.

Best Course.
Balloon experts here said to-day
that the course taken by the balloons
was the best that could have possibly
been taken. After sailing to the west
for short distance the gas bags veer-
ed to the northeast and from the
location. OF those this morning It Ia
evident all are bound straight for the
Canadian border. Aeronauts main
tain that across the lakes on the Ca
madam side there is a strong eastern
current that will carry a balloon to
the Atlantic coast.
II was this route that Captain Eu-
gene HONEYWELL sought on 4 trial hight
several months ago. ana 1t would
cause no surprise II the aeronau,s
strike this current and increase the
long distance flight record.
