Election of Dl-
ruutom.
Slnco the election of Judge William D. Cor
nish to the presidency of the Oregon Short
Line there has been much discussion ot the
relations between tbo former branch and the
parent system , the .Short Line nnd the Union
I'acltlc. It is conceded that the two lines
nro closer together today than since the
Short Line bccamo an Independent company
nnd practically as close as whin It was a
pirt of the Union Pacific s > stcm. Judge
Cornish Is first vice president ot the Union
Pacific , as we'll as president of the Oregon
Short Llnc > , and It Is accepted fiom bis dual
position that the Interests of thu two roads
will bo madu Identical. Another result of
the recent meeting of the directory pointing
toward a close combination Is thu election of
17. H. Harrlman to the chairmanship of the
Bhort Line directory. He will be the domi
nating spirit of that board us he Is now the
strongest man In thu Union Pacific directory ,
holding the position of chalrmau of the ex
ecutive committee ot the Union Pacific di
rectors.
The election of several new directors of
the Short Line to represent the Gould In
terests Is vlowcd In Union Pacific circles aa
Indicative of the growing strength of these
Interests In the Short Line. As ono Union
I'acltlc official remarked : "It means that
Helen Could has been quietly buying a
whole lot of Short Line stock during the
last year , and now holds a pretty good
hand herself. The Vanderbllt Interests do
not predominate In the now dlrcctoiy of the
Bhort Line nor In Its official organization.
If they had you would have seen a Northwestern -
western man chosen president of thu Short
Line Instead of Judge Cornish. Mr. Har
rlman , who has been chosen chairman of
the now board of directors of the Short
Line , cannot bo classed as cither a Van
derbllt or a Gould man , and Is , therefore , In
good position to see that the road Is oper
ated to Its best advantage and to the
greatest Interests of the Union Pacific , In
which Mr. Harrlman Is equally prominent. "
It Is announced that the change In the
control of the Short Line will not affect
the building of the noi\ line from Mllford ,
Utah , on the Utah & . Pacific. The Oregon
Short Line owns 60 per cent of the bonds
of the Utah & Pacific and It Is to the Interest
of the Short Line to see that the proposed
line Is pushed through to completion.

The huRtle of the many visiting passenger
men and the representative of the Omaha
terminal lines for the travel of the late rosl-
ilentH of the exposition Midway , continues
to bo nn absorbing topic In railroad circles.
The pcoplo of most of the sho'ss have se
lected their routes homeward , or to their
next stopping place , but the attaches of the
two concessions employing the most people ,
the Streets of All Nations and the opticians ,
re holding oft for bettor rates than any of
the roads have yet conceded.
A couple of days ago when the rates began
to go down It looked as though the per
< : formers would bo carried for almost nothing.
demoralization In the rates has been
i prevented , however , by a genera agree
ment of all the lines on the special
rates to bo used on this occasion. Chair
man Caldwe ) ! of the Western Passenger as
sociation made a trip here on Sunday , and
with the representatives of the Hues east of
Chicago secured an agreement among all
tlui lines to maintain an agreed rate for the
Midway people. The rates are a little more
than ono-half regular rates.
Homo of the tiavel fiom the Midway starts
this atteinoon. nnd thu bulk of It will get
away before Thursday night. Most of the
travel Is going eastward , Now York being
tbo most popular destination among the Mid.
May folks. There will be a llttlo travel
southward nnd some to San Francisco , nut
the Omaha-Chlcngo lines will get the great-
I' rat amount of business from the thorougb-
:
h : faio that made tbo exposition famous.

The Railway World , which Is usually re
liable , says , "It Is understood that the Paclflo
Short Line and the Sioux City & Northern
railways will become a part of the Great
Northern system Inalde of sixty days. "
Should this provo to bo trtio , the Great
Northern would \\n\t \ * a lluo between Sioux
City and St. Paul and between O'Neill , Neb. ,
and Sioux City.
Such an e\ent would be no surprise to the
railroad men of Omaha , who have been look
ing for the Great Northern to extend Its
syntcm In this direction for n couple ot
years past. There have been frequent nu
more of the building of a Great Northern
line between Yankloii , S , D. , where It al
ready has a line , and Omaha.
Both the Sioux City & Northern and the
Pacific Short Line , the full title of which Is
the Sioux City , O'Neill & Western , are now
In the hands of receivers. The former road
has a mileage of ninety-seven miles , from
Sioux City to Garretson , S. D. The latter
extends from Sioux City to O'Neill , Neb. , a
distance of 130 miles.
The passenger men who have madi > care
ful surveys of the traffic to be moved esti
mate that about 2,000 persons directly or
indirectly connected with the exposition will
go out of Omaha during the next few days
Out of thli number about 600 arc members
of the various Midway concessions and the
remainder are either unattached or will
travel In blocks of fives or thereabouts. The
plan * formed tor a pool of the business
among all the lines appear to be working
well and Joint Agent Thomas W. Leo of the
Western Passenger association Is closely
watching the matter to eco that uona ot the
lines quote rates lower than the pooling
agreement allows. He spent yesterday after
noon calling on the local passenger men with
several of the leading concessionaires and
Inspected all contracts for the out-'bound
travel.
7 he traveling passenger agents who are
hero after the business arc still In town ,
but they are not hustling for any travel ,
merely watching to see that the terms ot
the agreed plan arc carried out. Up to date
the pooling arrangement seems to bo getting
along qulto as well as though the proposed
pooling bill had already been passed by con
gress and no decisions against the legality
of traffic assojlatlons ever been rendered
by the United States supreme court.

DBS MOINKS , Nov. 1. ( Speclal.-JThero )
have been filed In the office of the secretary
of state articles of Incorporation for thu Ion a
Central & Western Railroad company , the
purpose of which 18 to rnnatiuct a line from
Oskaloisa to Dea Molnes , via Pclla anil Cor
dova , at the latter point forming a connec
tion with the Wabash road , over whose
tracks the new company will run Us tralnu
Into this city. The Incorporators arc : L. M.
Martin , general manager for the Iowa Cen
tral ; George W. Seevers of Oakalooaa , C. E.
Lofiaml of Uskaloosa , Scth Zug of Pclla and
P. C. Uousquet of Pella. The officers are :
L. M. Martin , president ; George W. Seevers ,
secretary and treasurer , and C. W. Hunt-
Ingtou , general superintendent , being the
same roaltlon bo now holds with tbo Iowa
Central.
It Is alf > o the Intention of the new com
pany to build an extension of the Iowa Cen
tral from Belmond , the present terminus of
a branch , to Algona , and perhaps later to
continue the extension on Into the Dakota * .
Colonel Martin , who arrived In the city
yesterday , was seen by a reporter. "Yes , "
said he , "the Iowa Central will build into
Dea Molncs. That has been decided beyond
question by a telegram I Just received from
New York. The articles of Incorporation
will bo filed In the ofilco of the secretary of
state In the morning. The fco will bo con
siderable , amounting to $2,002 , for which I
have drawn a check for presentation to the
secretary tomorrow forenoon. The extension
from Osknloosa to Cordova will Involve the
building of about twenty-five miles of road ,
while the proposed extension from Belmond
to Algona , through Hancock and Kossutb
counties , will be thirty-eight miles lu length.
The surveyors for the line to DCS Molnes
are already In the field seeking the most
feasible loutc. Wo expect to bo running
trains Into DCS Moines on or before the first
day ot next July. It will give the farmers
of central Iowa rare opportunities to market
their corn and stock at Peorla , the second
largest city In Illinois , and give them ad
ditional railroad connections with the sea
board via the Vanderbllt system and the
lakes. We have completed arrangements for
terminal .facilities In Des Molnes with the
DCS Molnes Union , the contract being now In
process of preparation. "
Svtlml.eil liy n .Scalper.
Another exposition visitor who is sorry ho
dealt with Omaha ticket brokers has made a
public complaint. He halls from Lansing ,
Mich. Friday afternoon this man purchased
transportation for himself , wife and child
from Omaha to Chicago of a scalper here.
For the transportation two full and ono
half tickets he paid the broker $35. The
tickets given him by tbo scalper read from
Omaha to Chicago , but the dealer gave him
an order on a Chicago Tjrokor for tickets for
the rest of his Journey from Chicago to
Lansing , Mich. , the $35 covering the trans
portation from Omaha to the Michigan cap
ital. When the purchaser , with his wlfo and
child , arrived In Chicago on Saturday he Im
mediately presented his order for the Chi
cago-Lansing tickets to the broker but was
quickly told by the latter that the order was
not worth the paper It was written on. As
the victim had paid all the money ho bad
for the tickets and the bogus order ho was
without funds when he arrived In Chicago.
The man reported the matter to the Chicago
cage police , who notified the officers of the
Western Passenger association. Chairman
Caldwell of this organization sent one of his
representatives to the station , where the
man who says he has been mistreated signed
a sworn statement of tbo case as above
printed. The matter has been referred to
the Omaha officers of the Interested roads
for further Investigation and prosecution If
possible.

speaking of passenger traffic he said : "BusI-

during the coming season Is fair. I do not
look for a period of demorallratlon In rates
to follow the decision of the United States
supreme court against the Joint Traffic as
sociation. Rather , 1 think It will cause the
railroads to bo more conservative. They
will undoubtedly secure some form of an or
ganization that will be accepted as satis
factory by the supreme court. Our line has
been able to maintain rates during the post
year , though the demoralization on both
sldea of us ha * been pretty bad. "

Oeorgo M. Collins , T. W. Maupln , C
Nuretrom nnd Frank Wilson , neighbors of
Dellck's and eye n lineages of the

ai the story narrated In The Dec
Sunday morning. It was shown by the testi
mony of W. II. Kcone , the expressman Sar
gent had engaged to take Mrs. Bellck'f
trunk away , that Sargent expected trouble
if he should meet Dellck. The trip was
made to the house secretly. Kcene eayp
Sargent admonished him to drive In the
mud of the street to deaden the noleo of hli
wagon wheels. He said two trips were madi
to the house. On the first , ho says , Sar
gent went hito the yard of the Dellek housi
and wont part way to the door and returued
with the remark , "Wo can'i
get In now ; there's a light then
and the old man Is home. "
After this ho says ho and Sargent went to a
saloon and had a drink and a cigar , and
consumed probably ten minutes , after whirl :
they returned to the Bellck house. Sargent
knocked at the door , then Keene says he
heard Uellck's voice say , "Go away fron
here ; I don't want to talk to you. " Or
Sargent's dcmpml that he should talk. Kcent
says the firing began. Sargent ran out of thi
yard wlUi Mrs. Uollck behind him and De
llck In the rear shooting at Sargent. Whei-
the latter fell to the sidewalk Mrs Dellck

Officer Tude , Prank Wilson , a neighbor ,
Phil McGovern , the barber for whom Sar
gent worked ; 13. F. Brown , a barber , and
Max Fieunhold , a saloonkeeper , all teBtlle ! <
that on many occasions Sargent had threat
ened to kill "the Dutchman , " as he sneerIngly -
Ingly called Dellck. On the evening of thi
night of the murder Sargent was In Freun
hold's saloon and exhibited a long hunting
knife ho had Just purchased. He said he was
going to Chicago that night and was going
to call on Mrs. Bellck for the last time , and
If her husband Interfered ho woulJ
kill him. Ho then showed Freunhold how
he could use the knlfo by pantomimic mo
tions. This knife and a razor were found
In Sargent's pocket nfter the shooting. Mrs
Dellck and Sargent were In Frounhold's sa
loon on the morning before the murder.
McGovern and Drown , the barbers , testi
fied ( that Sargent's threats against Bellck
were almost an hourly occurrence. The
woman , they said , was a constant caller on
Sargont while he was employed at the bar
ber shop.
On the conclusion of the examination of
these witnesses a continuance was taken un
