Cureaao, 1L, Sept. 25, —Chairman Midge- 1y's oMiciul statement of westbound tonnage to southwestern Missouri river points for the month of Juue is out. A comparison of the traffic carried by the several competing lines is a revelatior, and especiully interes- ting to strong roads accustomed to rely largely on their natural advantages for o fair sharo of the business. “Tne perceutage of the tonnago secured by each of the roads s thus given: Missouri Pacific, 28; Atchison, Toveka & Sauta e, 18: Burlington, 15.8; Chicage & Alton, 8.3; Chicago, Milwaukee & St Puul, 7.7; Roek Island, 7; Waba:h, 6.2; Chicago & Great Western, 583 St. Lows & San Francisco, 4.5: Fort Scott & Memphis, 3.7, ‘There 15 some comment In regard tu the Jurge percentage of business carried vy the Missouri Pacific, especiully as to certain commodities.
