TWO WAILS FROM WYOMING Oil Rates in One Instancs Oanse Shippers to Shout a Protest, SLICED PAY PRECIPITATES THE OTHER Rumblings of the Rall—Louisville & Na ville Steike—Reading Kond Cuts Wages In Two-Dolngs at Unton Pa- Oil rates from Wyoming to Chicagn con- tinue 1o bea source of much discussion and not a little criticism with tho men interosted in the oul fields of the northwest. At pres- ent rates per hundred on oil to Chicago from Wyoming is $L.85, which is considered pro- hibitive on tho part of the capitalists interested in the development of the Wyoming fields. Lately they have called the attention of the Burhngton people to their situation and have asked for a rate that would permit them to compete with tu Standard O1l company at Chicago. Mr. Holdrege, general manager of the B. & M., spoaking yesterday morning of the article in Tue Bee rogarding tho situation in Wyoming said: “We havo beou asked to make a rato that would permit the Wyoming ompany to compote with the Standard Oil people in Chicago, and have looked into the matter a livtle, but beyond this nothing has Dbeen done. T'he oil fields are situated abour eighty miles from Gillotte on our road, necessitating a haul by wagons for that dis tance before delivery is made to the railroad company. Now the wagon haul alone would cost as much as the railroad haul from illotte to Chicago. To put the Wyoming peo- plo upon a competitive basis with the enn- vlvania oil fields, we would have to make the haul for nothing. While this may be a fair proposition for the Wyoming peoplo, it would hardly suit ns. In order to compete with the Standard people at Chicago . pipe ine would have to be built from the wells to Gillette on our line. ‘his would be com- paratively easy, as it is all down hill, the water shed ruuning to the north and a good course could be obtained by following the Powder river. “We have not looked over the wells for the benefit of the company, but 1 believe there 1s oil In paying quantities in that section if piped. It is useloss to think of making rates that would put these people on an equality with the Pennsylvania fields as long as tho wagon haul enters into the consider- ation. However, we have taken the matter under consideration. Beyond this nothing has been done.™ EXTENDE » £HE LIMIT, Conces lons Made to Visitors at tho Falr on Utah Day by the Raviroads. Cuicaco, Aug. 81.—The Western Passen- gor association today agreed to extend the limit of tickets for Utah day at the fair six days. 1t was originally intended that tickets sold from Utah tothe fairshould have a final return limit of September 14, This has now been made September 20. the vote on the proposition being unanimous. The wencral managers of the Chicago lines and some from outside lines mot again today for the purpose of adopting a uniform policy of retrenchment and to formulate plans for the systematic handling of any strike which might resuit in the policy of re- trenchment which might finally be adopted. A similur meeting was held about & month ago, but it was a failure, not a sigle eastern roid being represented. The meeting today was better attended, but was not much mo of a success, and nothing definite was dono. Another meeting will be held in a sbort time, ‘The Chicago, Burlington & Quincy is now running solid trains from Chicago to Galves- ton. The trains herctofore have not been able to run farther than Houston without change, but today the first through train to aiveston left vin the Missouri, Kansas & Tho running time is about forty-six ¢ vast majovity of Grand Army men bound for Indianapolis from the westare comine via Chicago instead of by way of St. Louis, despite the difference in price. There 15 considerable dissatisfaction amoug them, however, at the length of the stopover vrivelege allowed in Chi Filed the wer, The State Board of Transportation has completed its answer in the injunction case brought in the federal court by the Union Pacific stockholders o restrain the board and the oficers of the road from putting into effect the provisions of the maximum rate law, and the document will be filed this fternoon, The answer in the main is identi- cal with the answers filed in the case brought by other roads, the only material difference being the figures as to the mileage and the dividends. It is denied that con- gress can inasy manner abridgo the vight of the stato to control the railroads within . its limits so far as local traflic is concerned, and it is claimed that the act of congress prohibiting tho reduction of fares on that road until the net income shail exceed 10 per cent, ex- clusive of the 5 per cent for the Unitod States. applies solely to interstate travel and does not in any manner apply to tho cnarges for the carringo of local freight. ~ An _exhibit attached shows that the dividends of the roaa from 1875 to 1884 ranged from 3 to S per cent, and aggregated annually from $1,236,075 10 #4.200,755. The same allogations are made regarding the issuance of bogus stock to ab- sorb the enormous earnings, as were mado in the case of the Burlington and other road Kour from Rawilnx, A tolegram received last night from Raw- lins, Wyo.. stating that the employes of the Union PPacific would not submit to the cut in wages which is bulletied to take effect tember 1, but were willing o dona month's wages, was handed to an oftic the Union Pacific yesterday. “The telogram is _incomvrehensible,” safq the oftic al. “in view of the fact that the reduction only interests salaricd_people and not men working on schedule. OF course if it means that the clorks and others at Lawlins are dissatisfied with the reduction why they know what todo in such casy cific 18 mot borrowing money. but is reducing exponses wherever possible. Tho men working on trains nd in_ shops have mot been cut and no proposition has been made looking to & reduction. Of ourse, 1 cannot seo why the engineors, kemen, switchmen and others should not reduced when we have to staud the re- duction. 1t 18 nov a fair proposition on the part of the men, and they know it. If they would only reverse the condition and become the company for a httle while they would ascertain the condition of the road and do just what we are doing, reducing expenses wherever possible.” ny ‘Where May Yet Be u Strike. NasnviLe, Aug. 81.—The strike of the machinists and other shopmen at Louisville and one or two other points uloug tho Louisville & Nushville system has not yet bad any effect on the local situation, Train- men and shopmen are at their posts today as usual Tomorrow is the day set_for the confer- ence betwoen President Thomas and the cmployes of the Nashville, Chuttanooga & St. Louis rallway. This meeting is looked forward to with grave interest by railvosd men. It “is probable that the men will decline to act unul the agtion of the Lovisvile & Nashville is known to them. 1f the Louisville & Nash ville me strike it 18 intimated that the Nashville & Chattanooga will decline to touch Louisville & Nashville fr At 9 o'clock there was nothiny nitely kvown concerning the talked-ol strike by all the employes of the Lowsyille & Nash- ville railroad agaiust the 10 per cont reduc. tion iu wages. ‘Uhe men refuse to talk, but the prevailing impression is that a strike will be ordered at miduight Mo, Ala. Aug. #l—Tho machinists and woulders of tho Lomsville & Nashviile road struclk last night because of the cut which Koes nto effeet Saturday. The cavpenters and puiuters and painters romain, but iv 15 believed they wiil also strike. LOUIsYILLE, A T'he conference of the Loulsvi & Ngsh o walnmen this worninz reached no conclusion aud no de ¢hayracidon was suken. The strike of tho | g arizing shopmen, which took place yesterday, adds 1o the soriousnoss of the situation. Hitting mh The possibility of a meeoting of the trans. continental lines on September 5 as an nounced last woek is by no means as bright as a fortnight ago, tho Canadian Pacifio refusing to join theother roads on the ground that as Jim Hiil reduced the rates without consulting the “Canuck’ he can now restoro them in like manner. There is considerablo i1l feeling existing betwoen the Great Northern and Canadian Pacific, and unless ail the transcontinental lines unite in a common agrecment to restore rates it would ve the height of absurdity for the other roads to go together. s it looks now, there will be no meeting September Another Faper teatlrond, Toreka, Aug. 81.—Articlos of incorpora- tion of tho Dakota, Wichita & Gulf Railway company were filed in the ofiice of tho secre tary of stato today, The incorporators aro I R.

Tho Cachie valley, which lies along the Snake river in northern Utah and southern Idaho has also a magnificent grain erop which will be moved in the uext thirty days. W. C. Shoemaker, traveling passenger agent of the Baltimore & Ohio, was in the city yeswrday. Mr. Shoemaker said that in running ons to Harper's Ferry or the other historic spots about Baltimore they sold seat coupons, so that there would be fittlo crowding.
