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.

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

n rather severe operation , from which ho Is
recovering rapidly , according to personal ad
vices just received by General Manager Hoi.

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

"In Chicago I had considerable Inquiry

It Is going to bo such a success as Omaha

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.

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. "

MISTAKE OF A POLICEMAN

( Int.
I. JJrown and J. 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.

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.

In China It is the custom for guests at
dinners to run around between the courses.
This Is supposed to keep the diner's di
gestion in good condition , but the nervous
hustling American needs something else ,
and there is nothing better than Hostel
ler's Stomach Bitters. If a man or woman
Is suffering with constipation. Indigestion
or any stomach trouble it's their fault If
they don't get well. Hosteller's Stomach
Bitters will cure them. See that a private
Revenue Stamp covers the neck of the bet
tle.
ISmlmlmera Organize.
The board appointed under the now law
relating to cmbalmera has organized by
electing the following officers : P. 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.

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.
