A contract has ac- cordingly beew framed resulting prac: tienlly’ in a conyolidation upon equal terms,—share for share. It provides, in substance, that, before such combination tikes offect, the Burlington & Quine will make an extra dividend in cush of 14 yer cent out of the carningsot 1879, ta equal- ze dividends made by the two Companies. The Burlington & Quiney will also divide to its stockhalders an amount equal to 20 per eent on the existing shares, in the form of shares representing a portion of [ty accumu. Inted surplus of former years used for pur: poses of constructlon and equipment. After thia fs done, the surplus, not Including that which will be shown, when the accounts are aiade up, to have been earned in 1879, will Amount to About $8,071,288, After such dis- tribution has been made, the Burlington & Quincy is to give 120 shares of its stuck for ench 100 shares of the stock of the Burtt ton & Missour! River in Nebraska, now ou standing, ineludlng certain tocks of Its Republican Valley extenslon now entilled to tho suine dividends as its own stock, amount- Ing together to nbuut 98,073 shares, and on the Ist day of January, 1885, when certain other stock of this Republican Vatloy Rall- road Conmpany, mnonnting to about 15,050 shares now outstanding, becomes entitled to Ike dividends to exchange for it, share for share, the stock of the Burlington & Quincy Railroad Company. A clrcular sent to tho stockholders of tho Burtlhgton & Missouri River, in Nebraskt, says thit the object of the consolidation must be hpparenl to-everyone, Corporations cane not be indifferent to what is passing around them, If others kalo advantages by eonsoll- dations and combinations, they must secure then also, Theconsolldation of this Compa: ny wih the Burltugton d& Quincy would atrongthen both matertally, and was, there- fore, the Ung to bo done.

Itisthe genera! opfuton fn raffroad circles hore that the dispatch wos Inspired by the managers of the trunk Mnes, who there- by mean to cover up the cutting of rates at present indulged in bygone “High Joint” roads, Itiselulmedthatatthe “High Joint” meeting in this clty charges will bu preferred agalnat sume of the ronds cust from St. Louls for cutting the rates, andthe proof in the hands of certain parties is anid to be over- whelming., It has long been suspected that tho rates wero bolng cut by the lines east from St Louls, as the bulk of the imsiness hag, lately beon going that It Is olnimod that tho way, am trunk Ines were not only cognizant of this fact, but really countennnced It. ‘The fuot Is that the rates have only beon inalntalned by tho ronds east from Chicago, while the roads from all other Southwestern points have been making special rates for some thie pasts For this very reagon ‘Tins ‘TRimune nas {nsisted all ajong that s reduetion {1 rates was necessary to give the Chiengo roads ashow, bolloving that such action would be far more honorable and equitable than the clandestine cutting of rates and the giving of «special terme to a faw favored partics, ‘he St. Louls roads accused of cutihig tho rates, when seontronted with tho evidonee, will probably advance tho plea that such action Wasnecessiry on account of the large smount of business ‘being diverted by way of tho Misslsslpp! River and New Orleans, But such a plea can ecarcely be considered, 19 the Chicayo roads, the cars of which ara standing idle in the yards, would have been much more justified tn cutting the rates li order to get the business they were entitled to, ‘The trunk-ling managers will find that the scheme of kooplng up the rates from Chi- engo inorder to give the roads from other polnts an opportunity to keep ahead ty about played out, and if they do not consent tow reduetion at ‘Thursday's’ mevting the Chica- go roads will be compelled, In_gelf-defonse, to yesort to the same practices as tiely South western competitors, As far as can be leamed, no cutting has ot been practieed by any of the ronda fi the jouthswestern Railway Assoclation with the exeeption, probably, of the Missourl Paelile, and this toad, itis walt, ly acting in concer with the Kustern lines, ie bouthweatern Assoclation will remain in existence “until May 1, and wntll then itis not probable thut the regulur rates will be seriously interfered with, as the earnings will be divided up to that line, and none of the Ines could guin imueh by tuking business at less than tarlif rates. After that tine, however, a Oght for the Misgourl iver business will no doubt be Inaugurated, which, if not speedily cheoked, may favolve'all the astern Hines, which al- ready feol rather uneasy over tho proapects.
