The Michigan Central road has lssued a circular, boycotting the twenty-five roads upon wliich the Trunk lines have placed their ban, and all through tickets over the western lines will be taken olí sale. The Chicago roadá exempted f rom the boyCott are tlie Northwestern, tlie Illinois Central and the Mihvaukee & St. Paul. All the roads Icading to Kansas City are barred, so that a traveler from the east cannot buy a throiiKh ticket to that point. As tlie Lake Shore has jolned Ihe boycott, tlie Baltlmore & Oliio and the (rand Trunk are now the only seaboard Unes whlch are not turning western tickets to the wall. Neither side shows any si-íiis of yielding. and the boycott will probably continue untll the matter isbrought before the interstate commission.
