6 J VOL. VIII THE DALLES, OREGON, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 18, 1895. V NO 271 RATES ARE CUT AGAIN 0. R. & N. Bulletins $5 and $2.50 to Sari Francisco. TRAIN FARES ALSO COMB DOWN Tbe Steamboat Company Takes the A c Sreislre Transcontinental Schedule May lie Affected. ' Pobtland, Nov. 17. Tho knife was again stuck deep and bard into Portland San Francisco passenger rates yesterday evening, by the O. E. & N. Co., follow ing a slash made by the Southern Paci fic in the morning to offset the cut made by the former company Friday night. It is a fight to a finieb, which probably means tbe hottest rate war yet see on this coast. Both companies seem deter mined to win, and the traveling public will have no reason to complain, for a time, at leaet, at tbe prices exacted for transportation either by steamer or train tetween Portland and San Francisco.. Following are the rates as announced last evening by both companies,' either north or south-bound, 'bet ween the two. cities: - ' ''"' . : ' ; - ' - First Second Class. Class. O. R. & N. (steamer!. . . .$ 5.00 $2,50 Southern Pacific (train ).. . 15.00 7.50 - The railroad rates appear to be for tbe five-day train only. Friday tbe O. K. & ' N. Co. announced a reduction by steam er from $15 to $10 first-class, and from $7.50 to $5 second-class. The Southern Pacific yesterday morning reduced its train rate from -$20 to $15, first-class, and from $10 to $7.50 second-class, part ly to meet the cut by steamer. Last evening the O. B. & N. Co. went tbe Southern Pacific one better, as the fol lowing dispatch from San Francisco from General Passenger Agent W. H. Hurl burt, who is in that city with Receiver McNeill, to Victor A. Schilling, assistant general passenger agent, shows: "'Let change appear' in tomorrow morning's Oregonian, fixing the tariff at just half what was wired laat night $5 and $2.50." The Southern Pacific has not taken action on the latest cut of tha O. R. & N. Co., owing perhaps to the most recent reduction being made late last night. It is reasonable to believe, however, that the railroad will come down a few pegs lower. The rates by steamer include meals and berths, both first and second class. Tbe rates by train include berths in first and second-class sleeping-cars. Meals must be paid for at eating stations. ' . " The siash in rates does not affect the Portland-San Francisco business only. Both companies announce reductions between Portland and Los Angeles.- The O. R. & N. Co., in conjunction with the Pacific Coast Steamship Company, is out for the Portland-Los Angeles passenger business by eteamer, and has bulletined the following rats: First-class, $17.50 ; second-class, 11.50. Baggage will be checked through from either end, Tbe regular first class faro by the Southern Pacific from Portland to Los Angeles is $35. The reductions made, however, be tween Portland and San Francisco ma terially affect this business,' and rates have come down a good deal. Just what rate the railroad company will establish between Portland and Los Angeles to meet the very active 6leamship competi tion is not known yet. Receiver McNeill, General Passenger Agent Hurlburt and General Freight Agent Campbell, of the D. R. & N. Co., are still in San Francisco, as are also Manager Koehler and Passenger Agent Roger, of the Southern Pacific lines in Oregon. It is not known when they will return. That they have had a stormy session in San Francisco, at the head Highest of all in Leavening Power. quarters of - the Southern Pacific Com pany, is well known Receiver McNeill is a fighter, and bo is Manager Koehler. But they were not alone in the contest. Reductions will at once be made from San Francisco to St. Paul and other Northwestern points including Idaho and Montana. The Southern Pacific cannot avoid it, The present rate from San Francisco to St. Paul, second-class $47.90. From Portland to St. Paul it ia $40. The old eecond-claaa eteamer rate between San Francisco and Portland was $7.50. Now the second-class steam er rate is $2.50, which, added to the $40 rate from Portland to St. Paul, will make a rte of $43.50 from San Francisco to St. Paul by. Eteamer and train. The Southern Pacific will, of course, meet this reduction. In this same way tbe second-class rate from San Francieco to Butte will come down to $35.10 from $43.60.
