40 Rail LINES
TO CUT FARES
Western Roads Take Step
to Meet Competition.

BIZ United Press
CHICAGO, Oct. IA complete
reorganization of railroad passenger
fares, effecting as much as 40 per
cent reduction, has been voted by
representative Of forty western
railroads.
The new fare schedule marked
the end of several years of discus
sion in which the carriers sought
a uniform weapon with which to
combat the inroads in their pas
senger traffic made by buses, au-
tomobiles and airplanes.
Similar schedules are being studied
by eastern and southern railroads.
The new fare system will go into
effect Dec. l on all roads west of
Chicago.
The basic 3.6 mile fare, which
long has been a cornerstone of rail-
road passenger business was aban-
doned and rate ranging from to
3 cents mile was substituted.
The railroad sllrcharge for Pull
man travel is eliminated. which
amounts to cutting present Pullman
rates by one-third.

Washington toward imitation of currency
President Roosevelt has made no announcement
as yet about his monetary policy but several things
have happened Of late to indicate that he has no
plans for currency imitation in the future at least
He turned q cold shoulder TO the Southern farmers
who were demanding imitation; he apparently has
turned his official to sound money" advisers and
bankers in Wall Street have gotten behind the credit
expansion idea, which suggests that they may have
received some assurance that the loans they make
will not be paid back in greenbacks.
Up until a short time ago the so-called con-
sructve forces in the stock market were initiation
minded All of their hopes and plans for a re-
covery, it seems, had been built the prospect of
currency dilution When the official attitude in
Washington appeared to change they lost heart from
all appearances and sold out.
But those who in favor of sound money,
recent developments indicate were just as confident

NEW YORK. Dec. 28-BetWeen
the hours of $50 a. m. and 1870
a. m. of Tuesday, snow fell with
great violence on New York City,
thereby affording the citizens one
OF their infrequent opportunities to
engage in one of the most thrilling
and hazardous sports known to man
ell pillar dodging,
In normal winters the snowfall in
New York is never severe enough TO
produce anything but slush, and
that of an extremely black variety.
But last Tuesday it came down
magnificently, until every street in
Manhattan became a skating rink,
only slicker. Right then and there
began the greatest el pillar lodging
contest the city has seen in de-
cade or more. As usual, the chief
contestants were the cab drivers,
but those private owners with
enough daring (and insurance. got
their cars into play.
Noon Tuesday found us on Third
avenue, along with 10000 other folk,
to watch the sport. We choose Third
avenue because, among the con-
noisseurs of the sport. it rated the
finest course in the world. While not
as long as the lower Broadway
course, nor as scenic as several in
the Bowery and Brooklyn, it is de-
cidedly the most dangerous. On
Third avenue the giant steel el pill
lars stand out in the middle of the
narrow thoroughfare like brace
of picket fences; the narrow strip
of paving on either side of the pill
lars is slick as glass, and the traf-
fic is what may be conservatively
termed as jammed. And, because of
its sportineSS, the Third avenue
course draws the widest Of wild
breed of cab and truck drivers.
When We arrived the sport was at
its height. TaXiS, trucks and smat-
tering Of pleasure cars were tipping,
looming, skidding, tail-spinning
crashing, sliding by red lights, and
careening. The street was Uttered
with tenders, tail lights, bumpers
hats, spare tires, carburetors, and
all the other removable parts.
Suddenly there came the cry:
Get back! Outer the Way!"
We were none too soon, for, like
a flash, a cab, going backwards,
shot by us on two wheels. In and

LEAD
WINTER SPORT.

YOSEMITE, Calf, Dec. %. UR)
The University of Southern Cali
fornia, winter sports champions on
the Pacific coast for three straight
years, held a commanding lead to-
day in the annual competition for
the President Hoover trophy in the
coast intercollegiate games here.
Led by Eugene (BuO Lynch, who
learned his skating at Saratoga
Springs, N. Y, the U. S. c. winter
sports team piled up 16 points on
the opening day Of the tournament
University of California at Los An
geles was second with 8 points, and
Loyola of Los Angeles third with
4. University of California failed to
register a single point.
Lynch won all four speed skating
races, capturing the 440-yard, $780,
yard, one-mile and tWo-mile con-
tests with ease. He also participated
in the hockey game in which the U.
S. c. team defeated Loyola, Al,

FORD REDUCES
TRUCK PRICES

DETROIT, Mich, %. (SpeciaD -
The reduction jim Ford truck prices
announced at the time of the first
presentation of the new Ford VS.
cars for 1884 is the first break in
the general upward swing in motor
car price levels, it was pointed out
today at the offices Of the Ford
Motor company.
The reductions were effective on
all types of both commercial cars
and trucks, ranging from $5 to SIS
on the VS. commercial car models
and from SIS to as high as $40 on
the V-8 trucks. SeVenty-five per
cent of all Ford trucks now being
sold are powered with VS. engines,
it was said.
In addition to the actual reduc-
tions in prices, bumpers We're also
made standard equipment for the
first time, their cost being absorbed
in the list prices, thus effecting a
further actual lowering of costs to
the purchaser, it was pointed out.
With the announcement of the
reductions in the list prices of the
trucks and commercial cars, the
Ford organization began a vigorous
campaign Of truck sales, the way
for which was made ready by a
widespread direct-mail program
directed at every truck user in the
country, together with a follow-up
plan which will put Ford dealers in
touch with every truck user and
prospect. The selling campaign
stresses the economical features of
Ford V-8 trucks and commercial
cars and their adaptability to every
phase of commercial transportation.

the lack of takers even at these
odds.
The advance ticket sale bears out
previous predictions the gate will
fall far short of a sellout. Although
more than $1,000 tickets were off
cred for sale. less than half of that
number has found buyers. An at
tendance of $4,000 was generally
forecast. Last year s attendance

RECORD MARK

HOUSTON, Texas. Dec. IS. (U.P)
His five-day suspension served,
Jackie Westrope, leading American
jockey, made his bid for fame at
EPSON Downs here today by at
tempting to ride his 300th winner
of this year and become the first in
25 years to accomplish the feat.
He was set down week ago for
rough riding after he had failed in
five mounts to reach the 800 mark.
His contract owner, o. L. Foster,
announced after the suspension that
Westrope would go Immediately to
Hileah Park at Miami, Fla, but
friends prevailed and the jockey
stayed to finish out his year here.
Westrope is expected to ride five
mounts today and sportsmen here
considered him an excellent bet to
come in first at least once for his
history making mark.
