REBATE ON TICKETS SUGGESTED AS REMEDY fiolicmn In SttbJrM < o tlir Approval of All f < lm Mi"1" I" "lr ' " Trrrltory , HOIY- rvpr. After a two days' deliberation , the pas senger men of the western roads have reached nn agreement on such of the low rates ns affect Intermediate points between the .Missouri river nnil points In the north west to which the now rates were tnado ap plicable. The remedy adopted Is the re late plan. With lliitte ns the objective poln . the rate from St. Paul as put In by the northern lines was $17.50. From Chicago to fit. Paul the rate Is $11.60 , making a total of $29. At thu proBcnt time the Missouri river roads make the name rate , through Denver rind Ogden , which results in making a ticket to Denver from Chicago cost CO cents jnoro than the same ticket to Iliitto. Under ihn agreement just adopted nt Chi- cngo , which will probably be put Into effect within a few days , a ticket from that city to Iliiltc , through Omnha , Denver and Ogdcn. will cost $3fi.GO. but the passenger will get a rcbato of $7.GO upon his nr- rlval nt Huttc. Under thl agree ment It Is believed the demoralization In rates to points along these lines vhero the prevailing rate 18 more than $29 will bo averted , and the roads continue to Ket their Hliaro of traffic to Hie northwoHt. Hales from the Missouri river to the nortti- 1 vest will remain ns they arc at present. On the California rates , which were threatened by the demand of the Southern 3'aclflo to exact KM usual share , without ab sorbing any portion of the reduction , the ( HFuculty Oiaa been partially met by adding J2.GO to the rates froni' Chicago and St. Louis. This will mnko the rate from Chicago cage $ -13 and from St. Louis $32.60. lloth of these agreements are subject to the "approval of all the lines In the Inter- i > tcd territory , some of which were not rcp- jcsontod at the meeting In Chicago , but It Is liclloved there will be little dlfllculty In get ting this approval. r ; IIOAIJ.S i.v WUSTIMIV IOWA.

Grading outfits whldi nro at work on the Fort Dodge & Omnha road are moving out to the line of action to bo ready for work when the frost Is sufflclently out of the tround ; to permit of operations. A number of Omnlia parties have secured sub-contracts and many laborers from this city will find employment along the line during the sum mer. One contractor attempted to start work n few days ago , but ns ho could force tils plow only about two Inches Into the ground ho withdrew to wait for n thaw. It Is said that Doycr valley in western Iowa will bo allvo with graders this sum mer. The Northwestern will be nt work on cmo sldo building Its now branch line and the Illinois Central people on the other. This Is pronounced one of the richest valley * in that state , but the Northwestern did not start Its branch until It was settled the Illi nois Central was coming' through the valley.

The spirit of the ago to get out of. any machine or appliance all thcro Is In it without any attempt to husband either tttrcngth or wearing qualities , Is spreading 40 the locomotives , which In the past have 1 > oen considered a thing of lite. The Bur lington road adopted this principle some years ago , and gradually the other roads nro doing the fwmo thing. Under this rule the engines are worked continuously for nllottod periods , when they are sent to the uhops for -whatever repairs are necessary , They are operated entirely Independent of any sentiment which may bo possessed by the engineers , and the latter are required to climb upon any locomotlvo that Is run nut for them. It Is said the operation of this rule saves the railroad company thousands of dollars each year. Xor 1'ollny of Smitii Fr. NEW YOHIC. March 29.

Though the offer of The Bee through Its Century Club has been before the public but ti short time , The Bee has already received many acknowledgments from friends , who lave availed themselves of the opportunity afforded. The sets of The Century Die- lonary nnd Cyclopedia appear to have given mrtlcular satisfaction In families wherci hero are boys and girls. The Bee received ecently the following letter from n member vlio joined the club In the beginning of the vcck : "I write this to tell you how pleased Mrs. , David nnd I nro with The Century llctlonary and Cyclopedia , which I pur posed through your club. 1 can already oo that It will be n great boon to our hoilse- lold , for you know how many troublesonifc questions a boy ot 11 years old con nsk inestlons that will puzzle even the wisest leads.Vo find that The Century relieves he pressure and answers absolutely overy- hlng David asks.

" This letter Is but ono of many similar ettcrs that have been received by The Bee. They como from professional nnd business ncn , nnd they mention The Century's usc- 'ulneBs ' In business as well as In the family circle. The Bee's offer Is n great one , and Ifc open to all Its readers and friends. It Is. however , limited , so that but n very small wrcentngo of the regular readers of Hit ? aper can bo accommodated.

NEW GOVERNMENT BUILDING There In Mni'li A'et < o He Hone Ilcfore the Struetiire I * Kully Com pleted. Although John Latenser has finished the work of supervising the construction of the now government building , thcro Is still con siderable to be done before the final com pletion of the structure. On or about April 1 , ho will abandon his office In the building and devote much of his time to the plans and specifications of the new school houses which the Board of Bducatlon proposes to construct this season. Yet notwithstanding this , ho will have a general supervision over the work at the federal building. At this time Mr. Latonser Is Inviting pro posals upon department plans and specifica tions for fireproof storerooms In the upper story of the new government building. These plans contemplate the construction of four or more rooms which can be used for the purpose of storing records and valuable papers that are not In constant use. These rooms will be similar to vaults and will be provided with shelving , plgeou holes and compartments. Another Important change that Is con templated at the government building Is an Important QUO that Is to be made In the vestibule of the ground floor on tbo east side. The office In AVashlngton has about completed the plans for these changes , actIng - Ing upon recommendations made by Mr. Latenper fully three years ago. According to the new plans , about all of the wood work will bo removed from the three en trances on the east side , and In Its place will be substituted plate glass , which will admit much moro light thnn under the present arrangement. The celling decsrn- tlons will bo made to correspond with the finish of the , vestibule , which contains about $10,000 worth of marble.
