THE O3EATIA DAILY BEE : FTUDAY , JULY 21 , 1800. COMBINE OF WESTERN ROADS Deal Between Santa Fe and Colorado Southern Authoritatively Annonnced , WILL GO INTO OPERATION AUGUST Important Alllnnro of Trnck nml Shop I'rlvIloKm Union 1'nclflc linn Iii- trrcnt In Ilio Tlr-tlp I/ocnl I'nn- 3tcii Ilxprot Hcmilt * . A combination has been formed between the Colorado & Soulhcrn and the Atchlson , Topcka & Santa Fe , whereby the latter , be ginning August 1 , will operate an Colorado & Southern trains on n through piece of Joint track between Denver and Galveston. The move la ft significant and an Important one , ns by the arrangement the two roads naturally Join in harmonious operation , and it given < o Ihe Colorado & Southern realiza tion of a. long-time ambition the mononoly on Gulf-Rocky Mountain business , while by the alliance of track facilities the Sanla Fein in saved many hundreds of mires nnd will have a sjulom paralleling Its great rival , the Southern Pacific , from the Gulf of Mexico to the Golden Gate. Between Denver nnd Pueblo the Santa Fo hns a splendid broad-gauge , heavily bal lasted and heavily railed track. As a re sult of the alliance the Colorado & South ern gets the use of this track , and will save forty-five minutes "time- " over Its former schedule when trains were compelled , by an awkward arrangement , lo cover Iho name tcrrllory In gcllng soulh. From Trinidad to Fort Worth the Santa Fo will use the Southern tracks to Fort Worth , and Ihcn Us own to Galves.ton. Thus It secures between these two points , Trinidad and Fort Worth , a track that Is almost a bee line between Colorado and Iho soulh. The Colorado & Southern , on the other hand , gets a track to Galveston. A Santa Fo official Is quoted as saying re garding this combination : "Tho proposition Is a simple one. The Sanla Fo can handle Colorado < fc Soulhern trains much more cheaply than the Colorado & Southern can handle Ita own Iralns , and there Is now no doubt in the world In regard to Ihe consoli dation of trafllc lntere < ils. Bolh roads se cure an advanlage. " The Union Pacific has a llllle Inlerest In this mailer because the Union Pacific shops at Denver nro now controlled by the Colorado & Southern on a lease , and by the new combination Iho Sanla Fo shares equally In Iheso excellenl shop advanlagcs. General Solicitor Kcllcy of the Union Pacific Is now In Denver looking Into this mailer , and 11 Is suggeslcd that the Union Pacific does not view the alliance very kindly because of cer tain advantages which will naturally bo gained by the Santa Fe. a rival of the Union Pacific for transcontinental business from Denver to the west. II Is stated , however , thai counsel for the Colorado & Southern have given their approval to the deal , shop privileges and all included. Ono tiling of especial Inlcresl to Omaha railroad men in thl9tdcal Is that It Is pro posed to run trains from the south into Den ver at 1:10 : p. m. , according to a time sched ule which has already been practically agreed to by the two roads cnlerlng Inlo Ihls combination. If this plan Is carried out 11 will glvo soulhern traffic , from Texas and olher south central stales , opportunlly to connect with tie eastbound Union Pacific and Burlington trains , which now leave Den ver shortly before 2 o'clock in the aflernoon. An Omaha passenger man said loday that ho believed this would resutt In diverting a great" deal ot southern travel , eastward bound , around by way of Denver , and thence cast through Omaha. Ho figures that in this way there will bo a saving of time , although the mileage will bo a lltlo longer. IIAV13 JUST G.YUSC FOR COMPLAINT. KiiKliipor nml Klreincn of Illliioln Contrnl In loivn Hiivc Orlevuiico. FORT DODGE , la. , July 20. ( Special ) The engineer nnd firemen on the Iowa di vision of the Illinois Central road believe they have a. Just cause of complaint cgalnst the road because of the assignment of en- glnoors outside of Iowa to the six passenger runs that are to bo put on the Fort Dodge nnd Omaha road. The matlor has already been taken up by the Brotherhood of Loco- jno lvo Engineers and Firemen and will un doubtedly cause further trouble if the ac tion of the company is persisted in. Promotions are very slow in Iowa , from tlio fact that it Is the end of the line and the raod fias no feeders in this stale , nnd business llucluales very llltle. When the building of the Fort Dodge and Omaha was announced the engineers and firemen 'In Iowa hailed it with delight because they tliought it meant for them Increased oppor tunities for promotion. Gome time ago It was announced that the runs had been as signed and to men outside of Iowa eomo of them from as far soulh ns Louisiana. The grievance commllleo of the Locomotive Engineers which mot in Chicago la June took the matlor up and presented It first to Superintendent of ( Machinery Ronshaw nnd then to Superintendent Sullivan aud finally to General Manager Harahan. Mr. Harntian acknowledged the justice of their claim and said that the matter would bo reconsidered and the Iowa men Riven duo consideration In Iho way of ap pointments. This statement was BO gen- ern.ll _ > owtver ) , that tbo Iowa men do not feel ontlroly reassured by It. However , they have great confidence in the probity and honesty of Mr. Harahan in his dealing with Iho men nnd bellovo that hu will keep Ma word BO far as the engineers are concerned , though what "duo consideration" means to Mr. Har- nhan may not bo the sama conception which the Iowa engineers entertain. The firemen , wlio have no a uiranco of protection In the matter , are contemplating tbo sending to Chicago of a committee to secure the assurances from the officials there that Iowa firemen will bo appointed to the Fort Dodge & Omaha runs. The engineers and flroraen bellovo that with tlio well known slowness of promotions In 'Iowa their posi tion la a just ono and will push the mailer wllh all firmness. Dlnnderioii IlpcovrrM from Operation. General Solicitor Charles F , Mundcrson of the Burlington left Sunday last for Chicago to consult an eminent specialist regarding a serious rectal tumor , wtilch has occasioned ( him touch annoyance and pain for tioveral months. Tuesday morning ho submitted to n rather severe operation , from which ho Is recovering rapidly , according to personal ad vices just received by General Manager Hoi. dr gc , ex-Senator Manilerson is cxpoctiv ! to return from Chicago within a day or two , Imt after lit ! arrival hero It Is hardly likely that ho will be able to attend to but , I ness matters for eomo llttlo time. Double Truck I'rrillotloii Denied. Tbo report that the Union Pacific U mak ing preparations to lay double tracks on Ha Omaha and Ogden line , contained In a recent telegram from Cheyenne , la denied by the authorities hero , who elate that double tracks are a remote possibility. "Of course , " paid a Union Pacific man , "every road has under advisement at all times plans for the Improvement of the service , and t'ao double track idea has no doubl been considered , bul no far as Ha being put into operation in the Immediate future there Is llttlo likeli hood. " l''nini'l Itelurii * frtijii Kuxl. J. Francis , general passenger agent of the Burlington , lus returned from au extended visit , covering several weeks , in the cast , and la again at hl desk at the Burlington headquarter * . Mr. Francis returns to his work greatly invigorated and improved and considers that the trip was A most profita ble ono. Ho sold : "In Chicago I had considerable Inquiry tnado mo regarding the exposition , but at that time the recent squabble.was on and , unfortunately , I was unable to say much in Us favor. Now I believe that It will prove a success and the interest which U mani fested in the enterprise by eastern people will result in many ot them coming to ( vc the exposition after they are confident that It Is going to bo such a success as Omaha will make of U , since a new management has taken hold ot the enterprise with a commendable energy. " VII3W STATIJ n\I'iillMIl.VI'A1.i XohrnnUa Fnrmor * Profit lijn Trip to I'nlvcrHllj- Iilncnln. The excursion of farmers from southern and western Nebraska to the experimental farm conducted by Iho Slate unlverslly nt Lincoln Tuesday was more than satisfac tory to the Hurllneton company , by whom the excursion was r.rrancod , and to the authorities of the university. About 100 farmers took advantage of the opportunlly lo visit the experimental farm and naturally profited by their personal Inspection of the latest nnd most Improved methods of farmIng - Ing which are conducted on the 320-ncre tract of the university. The departmcnl of animal pathology was ot especial Interest , as well as the departmenls of dairying , horticulture and chemical. The Burlington road has great faith In the value of Nebraska land for farming pur poses and this lasl excursion wan provided for the purpose of giving the farmers along Its line the privilege of closer acquaintance wllh up-to-date forming methods , believing that such knowledge Is not only of benefit to the farmers In the larger crops nnd the greater success of their efforts , but that the railroad also comes In for a share of the advantage derived from Increased produc tion and Improved financial condition of Iho farmers. HUMOUS OF KAIMIOAII CHANCES. I'rcnlili'itt Moliler of Navigation Coin- imii.v to Ho ISnnt. NEW YORK , July 20. A report Is current that A. L. Mohlcr , now president of the Dregon Railway and Navlgallon company , lias accepted the presidency ot the Chesa peake & Ohio nnd Big Four railroad com panies , succeeding M. E. Insalls. There was a rumor a few days ago lhat Mr. In- galls would resign the presidency of the Chesapeake & Ohio nnd Big Four lo become Reni'ral arbitrator of the Pennsylvania Hall- road company and the Vanderbllt and Mor gan system of railroads , at a salary of Ho.OOO a year. But iMr. Ingalls himself iromptly denied Ihe story. It does not ap- icar that he has yet retired or been retired Irom the presidency of hlo two roads. As to Mr. Mohler's reported change of justness connections , William L. Bull , lead- ng director of the Oregon Railway and Navigation company , says : "I have had several telegrams today from Mr. Mohler , at Portland , Ore. , nnd in none of them has ho said anything about an Intention to retire trom the presidency of our company. In addition to our business relations , Mr. Moh- er Is a close personal friend of mine , and I think ho would not take euch a step wlth- oul lolling mo know about It. I do not believe the report Is true. " 1'rotpnt from Stockholder * . BOSTON , July 20. Stockholders represent ing between 25,000 and 40,000 shares ot the Boston & Albany road , after a conference aero today , Issued a circular to all the stock holders of the corporation , protesting against Ihe Iransfcr of Ihe road lo Ihe New York Central on the ground that It Is neither wise nor equitable to lease the road on an S per cent rental and that it is conlrary to the Interests of the shareholders.

Brown , furniture dealers , are the Dromlos of a police story which owes its origin to the sale of a refrigerator that leaked. Joseph Brown's place of business Is 810 South Sixteenth street. Wednesday morn ing he sold an Icebox to Mrs. Elizabeth Har vey , guaranteeing Iho piece of furnlluro to bo first-class In every respect. The price was ? 3.GO. Upon trial Jlrs. Harvey found Iho Icebox worthless because of a big tear In the zinc. A warrant was immediately goltcn out for the furniture dealer's arrest on the charge of obtaining money under faleo pretenses. The officer who served the paper , being slightly acquainted with Isaac Brown , form erly a furniture deafer , mistook the Initial nnd went to 'the lalter's home , 2564 Douglas street. Mr. Brown was sitting on his front porch. The policeman produced the warrant and read It. "That cnn't mean me. I dnn't know any woman named Hurvey , " protested Mr. Brown. The policeman hcnrs such protests every time nn arrest Is made , eo ho firmly but politely Informed Mr , Brown he would have to "como along , " and Mr. Brown went. The mistake was discovered at the police station. The officer then went out and brought In the right man , and when he was brought In Isaac Brown completed the finishing touches by furnishing ball for his namesake to the amount ot $100. TIIAI.NS.

FOUR RAILROADS JOIN HANDS Alleged Oomblnation with Union Pacific. . Leaving VanderbilU Oat. HARRIMAN AT THE HEAD OF SYNDICATE Connection * < n lie tlip All on nuit Iltliioln Ccntrnl llnlllinnrc & Ohio I'ropOrtj- the Ucul. NEW YOniC , July 20. The Herald says : A deal Is under way involving the combina tion of tit least four prominent railroads and perhaps two or thrco more , making a complete trunk line from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The scheme Involves a merger ot several of the properties In which 13. H. Harrlmnn , Kulin , iioeb & Co. and Speyor & Co. are Interested and with their friends exert a controlling Interest. Among these properties are the Union 1'aclllc , the Illinois Central and the Chicago & Alton , the Chicago Terminal Transfer company , the Oregon Short Line , the Oregon Hallway and Navigation company and the lialtlmoro & Ohio. It is ascertained In some quarters that the Great Northern will como In , but this is considered doubtful , although James J. Hill Is closely associated with several of the gentlemen who are prominent In the railroads mentioned. This combination will give a compact sys tem and will bring about a revolution in tralllc alliances. The Union Pacific is the keystone. Its closest connection nt present Is the Chicago & Northwestern and for a long time it has been the prevailing opinion In Wall street that the Vanderbllts would attach both the Northwestern and the Union Pacific to the growing Now York Central system. VniulvrlilltH Kept In the Dark. The now alliance assumes unusual interest when It Is berne In mind that the Vnndor- bllts are represented on the board of di rectors of the Union Pacific and were not aware until a few weeks ago of what was going on. The Northwestern directors have hurriedly considered the advisability of ex tending their Blkhorn branch to Ogden , to a connection with the Central Pacific , which Is controlled by the Southern Pacific. Cut oft from the Union Pacific , the Northwestern will find no road to turn to for Pacific coast business that does not parallel It for a con siderable distance. Thus , with the Northwestern extending Its Fremont , Elkhorn & Missouri Valley rail road from Port Casper to Ogden In orJor to fight the Union Pacific , and the Northern Pacific forced to 'protect itself against the Oregon lines which have recently been ac quired by the Union Pacific , there Is likely to bo a lively time among the great trans continental rivals Jn the near future. The Importance of the deal may be judged by noting the combined mileage and capital of the several companies , as given below : Union Pacific : Mileage , 2,851 ; capitaliza tion , $231,000,000. Oregon Hallway and Nav igation : Mileage , 1,003 ; capitalization , $55.- 000,000. Oregon Short Line : Mileage , 1,429 ; capitalization , $81,568,000. Illinois Central : Mileage , 3,130 ; capitalization , $140,400,000. Chicago & Alton : Mileage , 843 ; capitaliza tion , $29,400,000. Chicago Terminal : Mlle- ngo , 100 ; capitalization , $44,000,000. Balti more & Ohio ( old company ) : Mileage , 2,023 ; capitalization , $124,000,000. Total mileage , 11,441 ; total capitalization , $703,358,000. CurlonM CimtoniM.

C. Heaty of Omaha , president ; Joseph Sondermann of Grand Island , secretary , and E. L. Troycr of Lincoln , treasurer. The board will meet In Omaha August 15 , 16 and 17. It pro poses to enforce the law 'which ' requires embalmers to secure a license before prac ticing their profession. The law does not relate to undertakers. The members of the board have received nollce of the action of the examining barbers in regard to under takers complying wllh Iho barbers' law , stopping the practice of shaving subjects under their care. One of Iho members of Iho board says thnt the undertakers will fight this ruling and he believes they will win. iHo believes the barbers' law docs not affect the work of undertakers , because It TB passed for the purpose of preventing the spread of disease , and he holds that 11 Is Impossible for an undertaker lo spread dls- oflfo from one subject to another. Ho con tends that the barbers' law relates to live Men nnd not to dead bodies. Another law regulates the handling of dead bodies nml the undertakers , ho says , try to live up to It.

I have been busy In court every day for the last few weeks discharging my duty as judge of the district court and have not had time to go through the ward to see you , so that 1 am compelled to address you through the newspnpcr. Some personal enemies have started n fight on mo In the ward and are attempting to elect a set of delegates to the county convention who will bo unfavorable to my ronomlnatton for n second term. It Is almost universally conceded that It an offi cer elected by Iho people Is faithful to his trust and discharges his duties wllh reason able ability ho is entitled to a. second term. In accordance with this custom , if you lie- Hove I have met the conditions just stated , I respectfully ask you for a rcnomlnatlon for n second lerm ns district Judge.

Probably the best production ever seen In Omaha at popular prices Is the production of "The Girl I Left Behind Me. " as pre sented this week nt the Boyd. The cast Is an exceptionally strong one and the scenic effects , togelher wllh Iho nlinost faultless costuming of the piece , make It a produc tion worthy of the good patronage it is re ceiving this week. At every performance the house has been filled. Only three nioro performances of this piny are to bo given , and those who have not seen It should avail themselves of the opportunity , as it will undoubtedly bo some time before such a thorough production will again bo seen In this city at the prices now in vogue nt the Boyd. The Boyd management will change their program back to farce-comedy next Sunday , the 'company being in Ihe mtdsl of Us re hearsals for "Charley's Aunt , " Brandon Thomas' wonderfully successful comedy , which It will bo remembered has been seen In Omaha a number of times nnd which has Invariably proven one of Iho mosl laugha ble plays of Us kind. Those who have seen it can readily understand why il had a run of more than GOO nights In London , more lhan 300 nights in Now York and why it was ono of the biggest successes over sent out by Charles Frohman. Its situations are very cleverly worked out and they are so consecutively followed that there Is laughter almost from beginning to cud. Much Is ex pected of the revival of this comedy by the Woodward company , for It Is a pray thai has proven , relallvely , ns successful in stock companies as In Iho special producllons. For example , It was put on in 'Frisco recently for a week's run and was so popular that It was retained for four weeks to the capacity of the theater. Mr. Hal Davis will be seen as Babberly , who impersonates the Brazilian aunt ; Mr. Will Davis will play Old Spettlgue ; Mr. Fulton , Colonel Chesney ; Mr. Enos. Bras- sell ; Mr. Greene , Jack Chesnoy ; Mr. Beres- ford , Charles Spelllguo ; Miss Kennark will be seen as the orphan , Ella Dclahancy ; Miss Berkley as Dona d'Alvadovez , the aunt ; Miss Nlblo as Spetllgue's niece , and Miss Dunn as his ward. There is nolhlns more Inlerestlng than a good musical act , especially it It be a nov elty , and that the act offered by John A. West at the Trocadero vaudeville theater this week Is certainly entitled to be called a novelty. Ambng the instruments unheard of before that he' ' plays upon are the South American rosewood bells , each note of which contains thrco separate tones ; electric fairy bells ; a pocket slide trombone and cornet , two of the smallest musical Instruments ever manufactured ; a contra-base bazoon and a mlranphone. Apparently all of these instruments - ments are easy lo play upon , but In reality they are exceedingly difficult and it requires almost constant practice to be able to play them artistically. The serectlons Mr. West plays are all new and up to dale , which , to gether with the novelty of the act , makes it ono of the most interesting and entertaining in vaudovlire. Coote and Klngsley with their llttlo comedlotla , Hodklns and Leath , the three Conalantlne slalers , John T. Powers' monologue act and Harris and Wall's motion pictures continue to pfease large audiences at this theater nightly. - M The Lulcc Shore Limited to Iloxton.
