THE OMAHA DAILY BEE ) .Y , APRIL 28 , 1893. WANTS TO CONTROL BUSINESS J lllo Grande Rail road Set * n Rapid POM in World's Pair Rates. LIVELY COMPETITION IN SIGHT , B nte To Mm IlnirrtPil tlin III" Orimdnnml Will 1'ull with tti - Union 1'nrlllc Union ruclfir Dlrrrtiir * Within Iho next few days , unless the lowering clouds art ) dispelled , the transmls- soiirl country will ho In one of the toughest rate wars in the history of this territory. It will bo brought about by the lllo Granao's determination to control tlio World's fair business from Colorado , although well ac quainted with the power the Colorado Mid land controls In the Centennialstnto. Following the lead of the Hlo Grande in announcing n $45 rate from Colorado common points to Chicago , the Burlington authorized the same rnto to bo made yesterday and the Ilock Island will undoubtedly mcbt the rate this morning. This I the first gun of defi ance to the roads In. the Western Passenger association nnd before another week Is over the demoralization in World's fair rates promises to bo something prodigious. The shrinkage of the rate f I by the Bur- llngton and Hlo Grnndo means u comfortable ecalp by the men interested in that branch of railroading. The Southern Pacific , Santa Fe nnd Union Pacific , which have been thrown together 1 > y this very warlike movement on the part ot ' the Hlo Grande , were discussing the situation yesterday , whether to meet the rate or not. What the outcome will bo no one knows , for the Interests of these three great systems uro Identical and they have gone into a corn- pact to maintain the rates as agreed upon , Where Omaliu Is Aflecteil. Hut what is of still greater Interest to the people because It vitally concerns the Union Pacific is the almost complete abandonment ot the boycott against the "Overland Route" inaugurated by the Kio Grundo last Novem ber. This Is duo in a largo part to the with drawal of the Santa Fo from the combine and Its espousal of the cnnso of the Union .Pacific In conjunction with the Southern Pacific. While not generally Known , the Santa Fc and Union Pacific have settled all their differences and have tacitly agreed to pull together , which means Increased earn ings for the Union Pacific , its April state ment showing n decided increase over Feb ruary and March , when tlie bottom seemed to have dropped out of the situation. Hut the Hurllngton's position somewhat complicates matters , us a still further shrinkage of the rnto must necessarily bo borne by Chicago lines as well as these west of the river and the rate made from Colorado common points Is delicately near the divid ing lino. Talking to General Passenger Agent Buchanan of the Klkhorn about the situa tion ha .said : "I admit the situation U pre carious , but the presidents of the Burlington nnd Hock Island will undoubtedly take a hand before the rate , as agreed ui > on in the Western Passenger association , is lowered or out in any way. Mr. Cable of the Hock Island was pronounced In his desire to have the ngrccd"U | > on rate from the river main tained and so informed his general passenger agent , .lohii Sebastian. I nm not personally acquainted with Mr. Gcorgo Harris' views regarding the Burlington , mil I do know if these rouds lend thcmselvs to any reduction they might as well got ready for receivers , for the money market will bo greatly de pressed In consequence. " The rumor that the Alton had authorized a rate of $0.50 from Kansas City to Chlcano was not confirmed yesterday , although It Is well known such' a rate has boon agreed upon by Mr Charlton's road If it becomes necessary to get business. , NO AtATKItlAI.

Piui.AnEi.rnii , Pa. , AprllTT.Official con firmation was this afternoon given to the announcement of the rehabilitation of the Philadelphia k Heading Unllroad company by the syndicate headed by Drexel ft Brown Brothers company. The Incorporators of the scheme are to provide for the liquida tion of the floating debt , which approximates $20,000,000 , nnd to furnish now capital for the future operation of the road by the crea tion of n collateral trust loan to the amount of $ 'iOOUO,000. The bonds will bear Interest at the rate of ( i per cent per annum and at the Issue price , 193 , will net the company $ .23,500,000. It Is proposed that about 120,000,000 of the bonds shall bo subscribed for by the owners of the stock , preference , Income and general mortgage bonds , the remainder to bo taken by the syndicate. The syndicate will nlso subscribe for nny part of the llr'st $20,000,000 for which the option of the security holders Is not oxercisud. The Issue of collateral trust bond will have priority over the pref erence income bonds , but will bo preceded by the general mortgage bonds. To obvlato the probable objection of the prefercnco bondholders to this arrangement , it is proposed that the Interest on the general mortgage bonds for the next llvo years , It being about $1,700,000 per an num , shall bo funded by the syndicate pur chasing the coupons as they fall due , and accepting in return therefor an issue of long time bonds. The Issue of collateral trust bonds at $ tKi and the funding of the general mortgage coupons will eventually give the Heading about SI7.MO.OOO new capital and the securities now pledged as collateral for a portion of the floating debt will bo retired , including the present $10,000,000 , collateral trust bonds. The contract which President McLcod made with the Finance company of Pcnn- sylvmila , for the purpose of enabling him to ilnanco the company's coal trade , will bo abrogated. The agreement , which Is ns ad- x'antageous to the Ilnanco committee as It Is burdensome to the Heading , will bo termin ated upon the payment to the former concern of n sum which will compensate It for all the rights It will surrender. The present Head ing system , including the Poughkoopsio Bridge and LcIIigti Valley roads , will bo re tained. M14T Till ! CUT.

While the Santa Fo local ofllclals are making merry over the fact that they had received instructions from Chicago to meet the Hio Grande cut rate , they wore thrown Into consternation by the announcement by the Denver ft Hio Grande of a $40 round trip rate to Chicago nnd return , a $112 round trip rate to St. Ixjuls and return , and a $25 round trip rate to the Missouri river and return. Although this rate was announced by the Denver & Hio Grande before 11 o'clock this morning , up to the close of business hours , none of the other roads had as yet mot the cut.

" Tills was the statement late this afternoon of Acting Secretary of the Treasury Hnmlln and It gives In a nutshell the status of financial affairs. For the time being the center of financial activity is moved from the national capital to Now York , whore Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Carlisle are within roach of the rapacious Now York bankers who will undoubtedly secure the conference they have so ardently sought. About the treasury today routine affairs were moving smoothly and nothing gave indication that there had boon a "financial situation.

Aside from the youthfulness - fulness of men at the helm , they have had little or no previous experience in govern mental financial affairs. This In Itself Indi cates the serenity of the administration over the present aspect of affairs. Many Offer * of Oolil , There have been a number of offers of gold to the treasury today. One of these came from a Washington bank with an ofllco just across the street from the treasury. The directors of the bank mot last night and had quite n spirited controversy over whether they should take their gold from the vaults and carry it across the street. It was finally decided in the affirmative nnd $100- 000 of gold was delivered to the treasury officials. Another offer came from the Second Na tional bank of Cumberland , Md. The total amount of gold held by this bank Is about * 70,0X ( ) and of this it gave to the government flO.OOO , or more than half. Contributions of this kind mauo a considerable total and no reports were received of heavy exports , The treasury officials are now awaiting the news from Now York , ns they feel that much de pends upon the conferences there and those likely to follow when the presidential party roach Chicago. reunions.

The gold situation npparcntly'ljl'ows ' ' easier each day and the flurry of tha st week has entirely subsldetl. The Now Vttf-k bankers called fern n definite statement'.tfrbm ' the administra tion , on the ground tlifttilt would settle the atmosphere , and the statomcnt ot President Cleveland scorns to have had that effect. Interest In the financial world has now been diverted to Now York by the presence there of the president and Secretary Carlisle and on account of the very Important- part that the financiers of that city nro now ntayltifr. The position which the Now York bankers have occupied Is bolnif severely criti cised. The ovldcnt desire of the south and west to assist the treasury Is contrasted , with the position of Now York , which can Immediately relieve the government , but refuses - fuses to do so unless on terms advantageous to Its own pockethook. The outcome of the visit of Mr. Carlisle to Now York is awaited with considerable interest. At the Treasury department today every thing was unusually quiet. The gold ques tion has lost the concern which It has occa sioned. Small offers of gold continue to bo made and nro accepted. Acting Secretary Hamlin said that the situation was very satisfactory.

Mr. Kilgoro explained that ho wished to bring his family to this city before - fore the opening of the session , and for this reason was anxious to learn what would probably be done , In order that ho could make his oplans accordingly. In effect the reply of the president was that ho would not call at. extra session until September unless some unforeseen circumstance , which was not anticipated , made such ia course neces sary.

[ Special to TUB UP.K. ] A flro broke out Monday mornIng - Ing In ono of the stables of Port McKlnnoy. There are four of these buildings In n row on the cast aide of the pa ratio ground , stnud Ing with their gnblo ends to the west and divided from each other by wide corrals , with feed racks for the horses. Lnst.voar nbout this tlmo an Incendiary flro nt the post destroyed the quarters of two cavalry troops , and an appropriation of $15 was afterwards made for their rubulld * lug. These are now almost completed , and it was Intended to turn thorn over to the troops In a few days , During their building , the stnblo nt the north end of the rows was used as temporary iiuartvrs. and occupied by the soldiers. Itvns In this building that the lire , which is suld to huvo been caused by the overheating of n chimney , first broke out. A blizzard wns blowing nt the time , and the water supply being dellelent. In less than three minutes the entire roof was n mass of ( lame. The men worked hard to save the contents , but some of them were for a tlmo overpowered by the heat , und the high wind carried the lire across the cor rals , and In a short time the whole row of stable buildings wns destroyed. The latter were old and dry and sutura'ted with paint. All the horses were gotten out In tlmo and none of thorn Injured , but with the excep tion of ono iiuilo stnblo und corral , which stands apart on n lower level ; they are without shelter. It is satisfactory to know that the llro was entirely accidental , but it Is a singular coin cidence that a llro should occur almost on the anniversary of the disastrous ono last year. The troop of the Ninth United States cavalry , which Is cnrouto to this post was expected to arrive Monday , and It 1 ? In tended to quarter the men In ono of the now buildings that nro almost ready. It is apprehended by some people that the destruction of the cavalry stables will induce the authorities to withdraw the cavalry from this post , hut in view of the largo sum recently expended on the new quarters and thu.insuflk'lenc.v of such Alt- . . Infantry nt a - tanco from transportation , this seems hardly likely. The now quarters are extremely haiulsomo buildings , two stories in height , very well built and tlnlshcd both outsldoand Insido. The cost of erecting new stables , for which the native lumber Is perfectly adapted , would bo trifling in comparison. Moreover the danger of lire on future oc casions will be greatly lessened by the con struction of the Uuffalo water works. These works , which will take their water from n point above the post , nro calculated to sup ply all the requirements of the military authorities at a very moderate cost and in the most eftlclent manner.
