The officers of the leading lead-ing western railroads are making another an-other effort to stop cutting of passenger passen-ger rates for excursions and co-vc-u tions and to establish 2 cents a mile as the minimum rate throughout the western states that have laws reducing reduc-ing fares. A meeting of the executive execu-tive officials of the Chicago roads was held Monday to consider the subject. It was stated that no decision had been reached, as all ofthe roads have not been represented, but the intention inten-tion is to secure an agreement so that reduced fares will be disocntin-ued disocntin-ued after the first of the year. |
