BATTLE TO THE DEATH NOW Bridge Companies Besnma the Struggle for Supremacy in Omaha * EFFORTS AT A COMPROMISE FAIL flraaha and Union I'aclfle Lines Make Proposition * Which I'nt the Terminal Company In a Verr Peculiar Position. Another turn was given the Northwestern- Omaha Brldce and Terminal railway con troversy over the proposed entrance of the latter Into the heart of the city yester day when General Manager Webster of the latter company attempted to reach some kind of a compromise , or friendly adjust ment of the difficulties , with Superintend ent Jayncs of the Chicago , St. Paul , Min neapolis & Omaha road. The effort failed In the attempt , and now the fight between the two companies is on again to bo waged more fiercely than ever until the present fcrldgo monopoly Is affirmed or destroyed. "Good morning , Mr. Jayncs. don't you think we can reach some sort of a friendly Bottlement of thH matter ? " Inquired Mr. Webster. "The thing Is getting pretty ecrlous , and I think we can settle our dif ferences If wo can once get together. " "We're willing to let your company como 4own and lay Its tracks anywhere east of Fourteenth street , but we cannot listen to any proposition that Involves laying your tracks on Fourteenth street and ruining our freight depot , " replied Mr. Jaynes , and the stuff was off so far as arbitration or com promise or friendly settlement was con cerned. Then Mr. Webster gave a sigh and re marked : "Now this Is a pretty fix. The ( Omaha road will let us como down east of Fourteenth street and the Union Pacific In sists that we must como down Fourteenth street as far as Burt If wo want to cross certain lots that the Union Pacific owns. To como down Thirteenth street would be to land us in the middle of the Union Pa cific shops , and I guess wo can't do that. We have looked the whole city over for terminal facilities , and we .find that absolutely the only place where we can enter Is along Fourteenth street. Here's an Investment of nearly $2,000,000 , Including the East Omaha 'bridge ' and tracks , which can be made of use only If wo can get a road down Into thn city. I think that wo shall succeed , and I believe It U for the best Interests of Omaha that we should. Take * Up a Track. "Tho Omaha rood has made a play of taking up the tracks It laid without the city's permission , but as a matter of fact It has taken up tracks that were not re ferred to In the city council resolution at all. The track Mr. Jaynes has started to talto up Is a strip of about 1,000 feet near Nicholas street near what would be Four teenth street if It were cut through there. This track la on the Horbach property , and Mr. Jaynes evidently thinks that by taking that up he will put the proprietors of a number of Ice houses and warehouses who use the track at a great disadvantage and then blame the whole thing on us. "The tracks the city directed the 0-naha road to take up because they were laid with out the city's permission are one diagonally across Fourteenth street nt what would be ( Cumlng street- and the oilier on the west side of Fourteenth street just north of this point. These tracks the Omaha road has as yet made no effort to remove. But It will have to do so yet. " The controversy brought out by the pros pective entrance of one or more railroads into Omaha la bplng watched ot close range ( > y President Stuyvcsnnt Fleh and a party of operating officials of the Illinois Central rallroab. President Fish and party were In Omaha and Council Bluffs looking over the field on Tuesday. Since then they have been in the western part ot Iowa. They are going over a part of the proposed.rout of the company between Fort Dodge , la. nnd Council Bluffs with Assistant Chlel Engineer Grafton of the Illinois Central rend. Mr. Grafton Is In charge of the party of civil engineers of the Illinois Central who are now working on the location of the line between Denulson , la. and Council Bluffs. Remove * Itn Own Trncki. The Chicago , St. Paul , Minneapolis & Omaha railroad will Itself tear up all the railroad track * It has laid without author ity and unlawfully on North Fourteenth ctreet and vicinity. So Superintendent Jayncs of the road yesterday told Cltj Engineer Rosowater. As a consequence the Board of Public Works will not be called upon to put Into effect the resolution passed at the lost council meeting , which orderei It to tear up the tracks. The city engineer read the resolution am .callpd upon Superintendent Jaynes. Hi found the railroad man without difficult } and at once broached the subject. lit wanted to know what the road Intended t < do regarding the matter. "I will shortly receive a resolution passec by ttie city council , Mr. Jaynes , ordering mite to tear up some of your tracks that are sak to have been laid on public property , " ik Mr. Rosewoter. "I will obey those lnstruc < tlons ot once , and I want to know If then will bo any trouble about It. " "Your men wllf have no trouble , " uali Mr. Jaynes. "In fact , they will not bi needed. Wo will ourselves tike up tin tracks that we are charged with bavin ] lold without authority. " , The track that the railroad tore up yes tarday is not the one In controversy. Mi lloiiewater understood from Suportntendon Jayncs , however , that the work would no ftop hero. Mr. Jayncs stated that the oh jectlonablo tracks on Fourteenth street , also wouM como up an soon AS he could get his gang to work upon them. City Engineer Roscwater took the matter In his own hands. Although the resolution that provided that one of the tracks should como up was pawed last Tuesday night , It has not as yet reached the Board of Public Works. U Is a concurrent resolution and must bo signed by the mayor. At noon yester day , almost two full days after the resolu tion had been passed , It was stilt In the office of City Clerk Hlgby. The city clerk , however , cald that It was about to be Rent to the mayor. After reaching the mayor's office its progress would have been accel erated , for Mayor Moorcn Intended to sign it and send it at once to the Board ot Public Works. MANV NEW DEPOTS. Itnck Inlnnil Improving It * PnmicnKcr Fncllltlen ThronRhont the Went , The recent trip of Inspection of President Purdy and official party of the Chicago , Rock Island & Pacific over the system hoa proved to bo a good thing for the western lines at least. New depots , stations and smaller buildings , with extensive repairs to other property , arc the order for next pprlng , all along the western Mncs. A new passenger station of brick and stone Is to bo built In Council Bluffs to replace the present wooden structure that has long since forgotten Ita bettbr days. The new passenger station will be located at the south end of Broadway , Council Bluffs , where the present station now stands. It will bo a larger , more durable and moro attractive passenger station. It will bo comfortably furnished , and when complete will cost about $25,000. Several of the other wooden buildings that are- serving tlmo as passenger stations along the Rock Island lines In the west are to bo torn down and fine brick and stone structures erected In their places. A hand some new passenger station will bo built at Dos Molnea to cost $200,000. With the renovation of the stations the passenger equipment Is to be overhauled , painted and newly carpeted. Under the administration of President Purdy the passenger depart ment of the Rock Island Is to b pushed to the front , and a largo amount ot money will bo expended during the coming year to make tile line moro popular.
