Show Coiisi.tvring Ballroad Kates. Sr. Lol ls, Sept !). Special. The Western Passenger association met here today in response to the call of the chairman, J- V. fioddard. Rates to the Pacific coast going via San Francisco and returning v ia Portland were among the important subjects considered. The ninety days in which the Association agreement was binding expired today, and hence tho occasion of the meeting. Most of the members declare they will no longer continue the farce of living up to the terms of tho agreement. J he result of the inoperative agreement has been that each mad has done practically practi-cally what it saw fit. Some roads blame the Missouri Pacific while others lay tho whole trouble to tho Rock Island. |
