Western roads agree to corn rate advance Transmissouri territory
Western rail lines have reached a consensus to raise corn rates from Transmissouri territory to the Mississippi river and Chicago and to New Orleans and Galveston. From Wichita and southern Kansas to the Mississippi and gulf ports the increase is 7 cents per 100 pounds, while other points see 3 to 5 cents. The Wichita to St. Louis rate becomes 14 cents, still 6 cents below the pre low-rate tariff. Wheat and provisions likely rise to preserve the rate gap. Rates apply only from Transmissouri points and Kansas through business, not Missouri river points to Chicago locally, as east-of-Missouri lines could not agree on those.
