No Second-Class Fares.

Lines members of the Central Passenger and Trunk Lines’ committees are considering a proposition to abolish sec-ond-class fares. Another matter of more than ordinary interest to a large number of people concerns the policy to be followed next year in handling clergy business. It is said many of the passenger men are more than pleased with the manner in which Western roads handled tha clergy business this year and that a like plan may be adopted by the Eastern lines. That, however, is hardly likely. The misuse of charity fares, protective forms of excursion tickets, government transportation orders, interterritorial party fares and a number of other interesting subjects are docketed for consideration.
