' The meeting ot the Western Passenger association In Chicago on Wednesday to con- skier the retommendattons of Omaha terminal - nal lines for reduced rates to this city dur- Log the remainder of the exposition was the liveliest that association has held within a year. The recommendations for reason- aIo rates to Omaha were not concurred in by nil the lines , but the rates nra going into effect just the same on Saturday , August - gust 20. The meeting broke up without any dcfl- nRc action being taken on the proposition. Another meeting 'viIi be called In Chicago for the early part of next week. At that time an effort will ho made to have all the lines belonging to the association concur - cur in the reduction. U the effort does not 8uccee ( it Is practically agreed by all of tile Omaha terminal lines that they will put In the rates recommended on August 20 and keep them In during the life of the exposition , the opposition of other lines to the contrary notwithstanding , The railway companies represented in the association and without lines to Omaha nrc the principal kickers against the granting of reasonable exposition rates to this city. : In fact the Chicago & Alton vent so far as to write out a letter of withdrawal from the Western Passenger association , to take etTect It the proposed exposition rates are male effective , o great attention was paid to this letter and by most oT the general - oral passenger agents it Is looked upon as a bluff , few even reading the ictter. 1)lNriiIitlin 1IelIilN Cl'nli , Travel. r The meeting adjourned when things were ; rather warm niul It Is thought by next week matters would have cooled off a bit. It Is not believed here that the Alien will break up the association In view of the generous treatment the association has always no- corded that road.

As one passenger man said to The flea : "When the lines get to scrapping look out for some mighty low rates , " General I'assemiger Agent . ! uhn Francis of the B , & M. was ( lie on1 Omaha passenger man present at time Chicago meeting. Gen- oral Passenger Agent Buchanan of the Elkhorn - horn was prevented from attending by Ill- floss , and General Passenger Agent Lomax of the Union Pacific was unavoidably ( le I tmiined here. In speaking of the meeting , Mr. Francis said : "Nothing was dually ac- complishod. The recommendations for lower r rates to the exposition agreed upon by the 1r Omaha terminal lines wore strongly up- posed by other lines. The principal opb : position was met with when reduced rates from fnr eastern nnd far western points were recommended , In the controversy one of the lines threatened to 1eve the assocla- tloo It time rates vere put into effect.VIth ; things In this shape It was thought best to adjourn for a few clays and let the other ' lines think the matter over.

This land was vaiued at $75,000 by the appraisers , a semen which Is considered entirely too high. It is not known what further action will be taken , nlthough it is more than likely that another board of aPPraisers vill be appointed to make another appraisement. "This amount is out of nil reason , " do. dared City Attorney Conneii , who opposed the report. "The appraisers must have paid a good deal of attention to the cialnis of the property owners regarding the value of their land , The land Is nowhere near worth that amount of umoney. Moreover It would be impossible to assess any such sum In benefits against adjoining property. On that ground alone it would bo impoaslblo for the city to accept the report , " "These reports of valuation arc nothing more than could ho expected , " says City Engineeritosewater.
