it indiscriminate rate-cutting, means |
ily one thing," said a prominent rail
ad man the other day. "it means
at every road having anything to do
itli the grain traffic this season is

ake a profit. There is certainly not
lough business in sight now to pay at
lything like present rates, and there
no likelihood of rates being advanced.
' course, the get together
id make some kind of an agreement,
it what will it amount to? The ratc
aking power is in the hands of the
tippers, and if a man has a large con
diment to be shipped, he can get his
vn terms from the companies. If the
ilroads were all on a sound financial

uld he adhered to, but there so many
