The Pennsylvania insists that the making of lower than a 2-cent rate for conventions takes from the railroads the main prop in their suits-to have a 2-cent rate declared unconstitutional. To-day In the meeting of the Central Passenger Association the fight was waged anew between the two interests, and for the second time the New York Central lines succeeded in securing a two-thirds vote In favor of making a rate of 112 cents per mile for large conventions.
