1 o _ l TTTE GRATIA TJATLV TltrilSnAV , A1MUL 20 , 1S1M ) . BURT'S ' HEAD NOT IN DANCER Heportof Remoral of Union Pacific President is Not Credited , STORY SAID TO BE WITHOUT FOUNDATION ClinnKP Mnr lie Po M1 Ir In Some of the TrnlHc Arrnimrmrnt * . ' * Micro Ilic Mutter I" LIUclj in Unrt. Ono of the Chicago pnpcrs prints n sen sational story of 11 move on foot among onrl.iln elements Of the Union Pacific stock holders to ilepopo Horace 0. Hurt from the rresldcnry of tlmt road. The reasons as signed for the alleged action nro that the present mnnaRcmcnt IB discriminating In the distribution of Its business and that other roads which have Interests In the Union Parlfle arc shut out from a share In the tralllc originating on thnt line. Mr. Hurt H out of the city nml could not bo seen regarding the report , but other olllclals at headquarters look upon the story as a fake made out of whole cloth. A week ago The Hoe , on what It consid ered peed authority , mentioned that when the Illinois Central completes Its road Into Omahn , this line , In connection with the Milwaukee , will make a demand upon the L'nlon Pacific for a more equal distribution of traffic. At present the Northwestern has n monopoly of this business. What the ro und of such a demand will bo cannot bo foretold. President Miller of the Milwaukee Is a member of the board of directors of the Union Pacific , ns la also B. H. Ilarrlman , ono of the leading splrltB of the Illinois Central. The latter was one of the factors In the reorganization of the road. It Is held , and with omo rrason , tlmt both of these officials will have some Inlluence In Bhaplng the policy of the Union Pacific and when they unlto forces for the same common rnd something may be expected to be ac complished. The Vnmlcrbllt Interests seem to hold the whip hand at present , which enables them to retain for their roads the bulk of the business from the Union Pacific , but they do not hold a controlling Interest In the stock of the company. They must have the sup port of other IntcrcHtH to retain their grip. It Is believed the Gould faction up to this tlmo has boon working with the Vnnder- bills , and the Chicago story credits Mr. Ilarrlman with trying to Induce the Gould Interests to join his crowd In wresting the control from the Vanderbllts. .MiiNt Wiiieh the CnHficr 13x < piiNlnii. A Northwestern official , In commenting upon the Chicago story , admitted that he expected a demand to , be made for a change In the agreement existing between his road and the Union Pacific , but added significantly that the latter must watch the Casper ex tension If It contemplated any chango. The Casper extension has been the club , It Is Bald , by which the Union Pacific was In duced to make the existing terms with the Northwestern. This line has been surveyed from Casper to Ogden , and has been pronounced a practical route. If constructed It will give tlie Vanderbllts their own line to Ogden , which will divide the business of tlio Union Pacific. The truth Is that a. large element of the stockholders In the company advocate the building of the extension , regardless of the agreement with the Union Pacific , urging that It will be a good Investment. The line west of Chadron Is of little value at present , but If built further west It will reach the rich coal mines of Wyoming In addition to giving a through connection with the Pacific coast. As has already been mentioned , the Mil waukee Is dissatisfied with the treatment It has received from the Union Pacific , not only In the distribution of traffic , but lo cally In the handling of freight at the depot In this city. It has been repeatedly re ported that President Miller only refrained from making his dissatisfaction known be cause of the near approach to completion of the Illinois Central line to Omaha , when ho might join forces with a better show of making his protest felt. Another point in this connection , small In Itself , yet Indicating the possibilities of the future , Is the announcement that Improve ments arc to ho made ut the Webster street depot by the Omaha road. It has boon understood that when the Union Pacific com pletes Its new depot the Webster street sta tion Is to bo abandoned , the Missouri Pa cific and the Northwestern lines to use the new structure. The building of train sheds at Webster street nnd the making of othur Improvements there Is not Interpreted by local railroad men as an Indication that all the Northwestern service Is to bo concen trated at the now union depot. While all of thcso matters have been sub jects of dally discussion among the Omaha railroaders for flovoral months , no one has suggested that there was a possibility of a change in the head of the Union Pacific system. In fact , that report Is not given any credence In this city. On the other hand , It Is held that whatever change may be made In the policy of the Union Pacific , Mr. Hurt will undoubtedly be retained at the bead of the company. DONALD ji'i.HA.v nous in * AOAI.V. HUN n Scheme to Iliillil it llullroail to tin1'iiplllc COUNT. Donald McLean , who has been called the railroad nnd financial dreamer , has again attracted public attention with the details of an arrangement for the completion of the Pacific Short Line from O'Neill , Neb. , to Los Angeles and San Francisco. Ho makes his last appearance at Minneapolis , nml W. 1) . Washburn and Thomas Lowry of that city are given as the latest additions to his syndicate which will construct this remarkable - blo lino. For the privilege of getting In on the ground floor of McLean's scheme these two men , ! ( . Is said , ngrro to furnish a paltry $27,000,000 , which , with n similar bagatelle Mclx-an Is to secure from Hclglan capitalists , will enable the line to bo built. According to McLean's newest effort to obtain publlch attention , the line to the coast by the penetration of mountains of rock and Iron , and the bridging of bottomless canyons , will bo shorter by 500 miles than any other road across I ho continent , an advantage ol Immeasurable Importance. Ho promises among many other things , that dirt will be gin to fly on the extension about the middle of May , and that business will bo lively until the road Is completed. In the dozen years that have passed since MoLean began work on his Pacific Short Line scheme ho has succeeded In building about 112 miles of road , and this Is soon to bo sold under n decree of foreclosure. This fact may furnish some light upon the date of the possible completion of the system. \OIPN anil J. H. McConnell , superintendent of motive power nnd machinery for the Union Pacific , has returned from an eastern trip. A meeting of rate clerks to fix up tariff Bheets for summer tourists nnd all-year- rouud tourist business Is In session in Chi- rngo. L. A. Storck , rate clerk of the 121k- liorn. Is In attendance.

There Is a movement on foot for the union J i of forces In the building of a soldiers' raonuj j ment in this city. Some two years ago an association was Incorporated which had for ts purpose the erection of a monument at j ! forest Lawn cemetery In honor of the sol- j dlers of the rebellion. The association was | I composed of men and women affiliated with I ' i the various patriotic bodies In the city. , Diplomas and certificates were Issued and j I sold and a large sum of money has been 1 i raised In this manner. With the coming of he exposition and the outbreak of the Span- sh war Interest In the movement lagged ind nothing has been done for several months. Lately another movement was started to erect a monument In honor of the soldiers train this city who lost their lives In the Spanish war. H is now proposed that the two movements be united and that a monument ment be built which shall creditably honor soldiers of all the wars. This step has not progressed far enough to determine Its ulti mate result , but Its frleuds arc hopeful that the prospect of ono beautiful monument In the soldiers' lot at Forest Lawn will have enough advantage over two monuments of loss magnificence to win nil to the support of the union Idea.

"A Bachelor's Honeymoon , " the comedy that had such a phenomenally successful run at Hoyt's theater , Xew York , recently , will begin an engagement of four performances nt Boyd's theater Sunday afternoon. The cast , which is headed by Walter Walker , the well-known comedian. Is claimed to bo an exceptlonaly clever company. The comedy deals with n most complicated story which tells of the troubles of a widower who mar ried an actress and kept the matter from ) his family by passing her off as the new governess to his children. U Is from the pen of John Staplcton of "Charity Ball , " "Men nnd Women , " and like plays , still very popular. In the company nro the son and daughter of Frederick Wnrfle , the eminent tragedian. The latter is making her theatri cal debut. Mrs. Longshore Potts , M. D. , whoso fame as a physician Is known through America and Europe , will deliver her first series of five free lectures on health and disease , to women , nt Hoyd'H theater this afternoon. The other lectures will be given each after noon of this week and Monday and Tues day of next week. On the last afternoon "Maternity" will bo the subject. An ad mission of 10 cents and 20 cents will bo charged to this lecture. In almost every big cily that Mrs. Potts has visited she has spoken to crowded houses , representing the fashion and wealth of the community. It was so in Omaha n year ago , when Mrs. Potts visited this city. She was endorsed by the city's loading people , who , on this visit have notified her that they nro still her endorsers. Mrs. Potts In n Quakeress , and about CO years old and carries with her the llavor of the simple , pure people she descended from. All her lectures are illustrated - trated by stureoptlcon views and X-ray photographs. As a laughing success Hlocksom nnd Burns , who appear at the Orpheuin thi.i week , are without parallel. Eccentric In iill they do , they have a travesty on the Jap- nneso polo climber and equilibrist which Is sidesplitting and keeps the audience In a roar.
