Traffic Officials of New Milwaukee
Line Determined to Maintain Inde
pendent Attitude In The Making; of
Rates Such Procedure Has Been
Long; Suspected in Railroad Circles
Road Will Mane Very Low Rates
I on Export Stuff.
CHICAGO, June 10. Some interest
ing possibilities of competition for the
Hill and Harrtman railroads In the
struggle for transcontinental traffic
are suggested by the decision of the
traffic and executive officers of the
Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget Sound
railroad to maintain an independent
attitude regarding the making of wes
tern rates. Ever since construction
of the line started it has been predic
ted in railroad circles that the rail
road will become a rate making fac
tor to reckon with. , One of the most
Important " considerations Influencing
the decision of the traffic officers in
their determination to maintain -an
Independent ' rate position was . that
the road proposes to 'make extremely
low rates on Oriental export business.

"We have carefully investigated the '

that this loss is a heavy one to per- '
