The Ames building , at Sixteenth and Far-

company of Omaha.
The lease for the bl P vacant building was
signed In the city of New York yeslerday

of Iho company that is soon to take posses

Ing toward the rental of the place by the
People's Furniture and Carpet company
have been In progress some time , and for
the 'Ames estate have been carried on by J.
J. Gibson of this city. ,
The news of the rental of the Ames build
ing was most gladly received by business
molt about town yesterday. All regarded
the trannaclloi as Indicative of bettor times
ui Omaha , and the firm making the move re
ceived many congratulations throughout the
afternoon. For two years the bulMlng has
been vacant , and the fact that such a hand-
eomo nnd substantial structure should re
main lu'lo has 'been ' generally deprecated be
cause of the depressing effect on visitors
and on the business In the Immediate
vicinity. The last tcnanl of Iho building
was Ibo dry goods firm of Olcson Brolhcrs ,
who sold oul Ibe stock of 'S. P. Morse and
who declared they were driven out by an
exorbitant rent.

In one small store. A second , a third , a
fourth and a fifth store were soon added.
The business kept on increasing and the
company kept on spreading until It had sevcti
stores In a row , nearly the cntlro block. Six
years ago It was found npcessary to seek
larger quarters , and in 1892 the company re
moved to its present location , 1313-15-17 Far-
naml street , and later added two warehouses ,
1311-13 Harucy ntreot , to the property occu
pied. Oae of these warehouses will bo re
tained by the company after the removal to
the Ames building ,
The uphill removal will take place about
February 20. It Is hoped that the necessary
alterations to the building can be made by
that time.
OFFERS FOR THE PRESENT STORE.
What the large building to bo vacated Is
tobo uaed for has not 'been decided , but It
Is known that 'tenants ' for it are not want

erty. In regard to the oiler of a Chicago
firm to take the place for a restaurant ho
said he did not desire to have a restaurant
located there and the owners of the property
would not allow a saloon In there.
In .speaking of the big deal J. J. Gibson ,
who carried on the negotiations , said to The
Bee : "Tho domain ! for good buildings In
Omaha Is splendid. It has never been better.
The renting of the Ames bulUlliig Is incruly
another Illustration of this fact. Already I
have completed negotiations for the rental
of ono of the warehouses on Hartley street
vacated toy the People's Furniture and Carpet -
pot company. It will be occupied by Wal

roads except the Omaha , the Elkhom and the
Union Pacific have Issued any circulars an
nouncing that they will not receive the cars
of any other roads not provided with safety
appliances for traffic wholly within , the atate.
The Burlington , the Missouri Pacific and the
Rock Island have Issued no circulars on the
subject.
The general result of the orders alrea'dy
Issued Is to our out all freight cars not
equipped with the safety appliances from
local trafilc. This necessitates marking on
each freight car whether the shipment It con
tains Is Intended for interstate traffic or iu-
trastato trafllc. If the former , any car will
do , but If the latter , ttio car must needs be
equipped with the safety appliances. This
flne distinction has brought out quite a llttlo
commotion In freight circles , as It Is not al
ways on tasy matter to provide Just the
prefer ear for the traffic concerned.
DRAWS A FINE LINE.
The distinction between cars 'Intended for
Interstate traffic and those Intended for
IntrasUtto tmlllo Is made necessary by the
disagreement of the national and the state
laws on the subject. The one provides that
all cars must bo equipped with safety ap
pliances by January 1 , 1900 , and 'the ' other
sets the date at January 1 , 1S9S. The latter
wus the date originally Intended for the
operation of the national law , but It has
been suspended for two years. Superin
tendent Jajncs of the Omaha road says the
state law should have contained a provision
postponing Its operation if any postpone
ment were made In the operation of the
natknal law on the ( subject. But tile state
legislators failed to incorporate any such
provision , and that's the crux of the whole
matter.
Ono result of the operation of the Ne
braska ftato law is found in the general
exportation of the freight cars not equipped
with safety appliances by the railroads to
other parts of their lines than lie In Ne
braska. The Omaha road recently sent 400
of Ite grain , ears , not equipped with safety
appliances and formerly used In the tralfic
In this state , to Wisconsin , where the cars
may still be used In the absonse of a stale
law on the subject. The Missouri Pacific re.
cently brought into Nebraska 150 cara , used
to carry stone , equipped with safety appli
ances. They displaced cars that wore not
equipped , which were sent to other parts
of the system. All the lines are now hurry.
Ing to get all their freight cam properly
equipped , but It Is said that many not
equipped are ntlll used In traffic within Ne
braska , conttary to the state law.

Thn banquet tendered the visiting otllclals
of the Port Arthur Route , following so close
upon the removal of the bridge tolls by the
freight department of that line , has caused
quite a Hurry In railroad circles , especially
among the representatives of the four Omaha-
Chlcagn lines.
Said a representative of ono of these llnca
o The lleo yesterday morning : "I am glad to
see the Port Arthur Route getting all the
thunder It can out ot Its move. It's all
rlsht , 'but 1 do not anticipate It's going to
hurt the long established tralllc of the other
four Iowa Iliii's very materially. So far as
I know the proposition to abolish the bridge
tolls has not hern seriously considered , by
the Omaha-Chicago lines. It has
been considered by two of tucso lines in
dividually , I understand , at various tlmea In
the past , but given up as Impracticable. You
understand these bridge tolls on'ly ' affect
shipments to and from Iowa points On all
phlpinents from Chicago and all other points
ea t of the Mississippi river the rates Into
Omaha are the e-itno as Into Council Bluffs ,
but It's when wo get Into Iowa that the
trouble commences , and It's all brought
about by the low 'freight rates Insisted on
by the Iowa railroad coinmlseloneri , We're
glad to ca a north and south line come In
here , but I opine that o considerable amount
of the trafllc will continue to move In an
eaat and west direction. As for competition
In Iowa the new line touches HO few Im
portant centers that wo do not anticipate any
Bei'lous competition. "

yesterday from Denver , after having made a
settlement In a controversy that has been
hanging flre for a number of years. The casa
was ono that Involved considerable property
In Denver. Property that was Used for ter
minal purposes In Denver by the Burllng-
I ton and by the Union Pacific , Denver & Gulf
' railroad formed the bone of contention.
The property that was owned by the Bur-
| i llngton was coveted by the Denver & Gulf
road , and the latter's property was the very
I land the Burlington wanted. The necessary
] transfers to effect this desirable settlement
I were made In Denver Friday. The settle-
I ment Involved something more than $30,000.
