8 RATES AGREED UPON DISPUTED TERMINAL, TARIFFS ARE TO BE STRAIGHTENED OUT SOON Meeting called for march 7 Xloads Have Been in Conferc With St. Cloud, Fergrns Falls and CrookMon Shipping . Interests. It appears that the terminal tariff dis pute in regard to Fergus Falls, Crooks ton and St. Cloud is about to be settled in a manner satisfactory to all parties concerned. As was stated in The G lob c some days ago, the roads have been in conference with the ship ping interests of the points named and with them have been going over tine tariffs endeavoring to arrange a satis factory schedule. It was given out at the office of the railroad and warehouse commission yes terday that a meeting has been called for Friday morning, March 7, at 30 o'clock and at that time the roads will submit the schedule as agreed upon ay the freight officials and the shippers. The commission has given the roads time to prepare this schedule at their own request, and now unless the rates arc satisfactory to everyone concerned the commission will probably abide by its original order and compel the roads to restore the rates to their former oasis. All parties interested have been invited to the conference and it is not likely that the roads and the shippers have settled the matter to their mutual satisfaction. The matter has been hanging lire fcr some time now and the shipping interests and the commission are desirous of hav~ ing it settled. There will be no further developments in the matter until after the meeting of March 7. It seems to be the intention of the commission, however, to have the rates either restored to their former basis or in lieu of that satisfactory rates sub stituted. There has bfen considerable opposition from both the roads and the Twin City jobbing interests, the commis sion apparently having taken the part of the out-of-town shippers. NEW BURLINGTON RULES STRICT ORDERS ARE LAID DOWN FOR EMPLOYES. . Officials of the Burlington railroad have started a campaign against Intoxi cants, with a view to eradicating their use by the employes of every department, not only on duty, but also while off duty. Heretofore the stringent rule against the use of liquor while on duty has only been enforced rigidly against those who had anything to do with the operation of trains. Hereafter the rule will be en forced against the employes of all depart ments, including even the track, briCUfe and building departments. Members ot these departments upon receiving their new book of rules were surprised to read the following rule: "The use of intoxicants by employes •while on duty is prohibited. Their habit ual use or the frequenting: of places ■where they are sold is sufficient cause for dismissal." Employes in these departments work a great deal in the cold, and suffer con tinual exposure, and many of them have been in the habit of occasionally taking a flrink as a means of protection against the cold) or rain. This, the officials be lieve, is unnecessary" and should cease. ,The officials think that as track men and bridge builders are comipelled to know the signals and to use them in protecting themselves and trains while working, it I Is as essential that they should let liquor fejone as It is for the engineers to have Clear heads. j : jThe custom of soliciting fees or sub scriptions for any purpose is prohibited* £nd employes are also foroed to pay their debts in obs.eryan.ca of the following iufeii i.J'Atiy employe su,t>jectlne the company %q the service ot a garnishment of his j>ay will be liable to dismissal and shall Jba held responsible for all expenses in. pyrreal by) tills, companx in, connection therewith/* 6 in the bbofc of rules Issued by the pas eenger department suggestions by •em ployes regarding the service are invited. Bule 44 reads t . ' 'Suggestions designed to Improve the Service, to increase business or likely to be of general interest to the officers ©f the company, will be appreciated." ■. It is expected that many suggestions of value will be obtained in this way, and ihe plan will also give the passenger de partment a barometer of the fertility of !ts employes. The latter are told that "Civil service governs. By strict atten tion to business you are in line of promo tion," and that "your success depends, among other things, upon the amount of business secured, and the manner in ■which it is handled." The books of rules have been issued by every department, and employes are ex pected to get copies and study them. The fcooks are numbered and a record is kept ©f each. WEEKS GRAIN SHIPMENTS. Korth-We*tern and St. Paul Roads Carry Over Half Into Chicago. CHICAGO, Fefb. 25.—0f all the grain brought to Chicago by Western railroads last week.the North-Western and St.Paul lines brought 52 per cent. The Burling ton and Illinois Central each had 14 pei cent, the Rock Island 9 per cent, while the Great Western, Alton., and Santa Fe each had about 2 per cent. The total grain receipts were 1,738,000 busheis, an increase of 23,000 bushels over the pre vious week, but a decrease of 3,399,000 bushels from the corresponding weeK or last year. Corn receipts were only 363, --©OO bushels. Western traffic officials unite in a pre diction that there will be heavier ship ments of grain in the future. Kansas City is no longer the best corn market, •nd the trend of shipments has turned to Chicago. The rate situation is very good. There was a decrease in live stock traffic to Chicago last week, the principal falling off being in receipts of hogs 1. East-bound shipments continue to de crease, and the outlook is not favorable JLast week's shipments east bound of flour were lighter than in any previous week of this year.amounting to only $134 - 253 barrels, a decrease cf 19,0f<5 barrels from the shipments of the previous week •nd of 60,591 barrels from the correspond ing week of last year. The grain =hip jnents aggregated 1,029,000 bushels or 2&S.0OO bushels less than were shipped the previous week, and 1,086,000 bushels l^ss than iij the corresponding week of last year. Several days last week the receipts of grain here were less than the actual daily consumption in Chicago. Ship ments of dressed beef and packing house products atnounted to 20,632 tons, a de ■ream of 5,&12 tons from the preceding %eek, and of seventy-eight tons from the .same week of last year. There are rumors of rate cutting on grain by the I m lines, and they are generally credited. I)., L. & W. AXXTAI* MEETIXG. l>ireclor» nnd Ollleers Re-eleetetl, h»«:I Finance* R-eporied Good.
