the fine concert by Bellstedt's band. In
honor of the visitors n water carnival was
given on the lagoon. There was high div
ing , fancy swimming , and to bring the pro

j the Government ( building and gave a pro
gram of popular music that was warmly
received. There were singers In the gondolas

BOYCOTT GETS INTO COURTS
Gulf Line Seeks Permanent Injunction
Against Several Connections.
CANCELLATION OF TARIFFS RESPONSIBLE
Cnac IM Ilcmilt of Boycott Aftnlimt
Plttfifoure fc Giilf Severn ! AVeeka
ABO Belief General that In
junction "Will He Granted.
The celebrated boycott which was declared
by a number of railroads , members of the
Western Trunk Line committee nnd the
Southwestern Freight committee , against
the Kansas City , Plttsburg & Gulf because
of its stand for a differential by which It
was carrying freight shipments via water
route from Now York to the gulf and thence
to Missouri river points cheaper than nil-
rail llnee could handle the business , Is now
having a hearing before Judge Thayer in
the Unltod States circuit court In St. Louis.
It will be remembered that this boycott
was declared against the Gulf line several
weeks ago by a number of connecting lines ,
and because of Us Interference with the
business of the "boycotted" road an In
junction was Issued by the United States
court compelling the lines to continue trafllc
relations with the Gulf line until the caaa
should be decided in the courts. Receiver
S. W. Fordyco of the Gulf line agreed to
submit the differences over the differential
on rates from the seaboard to the Missouri
river and other points touched by the Gulf
line to an arbitration committee , but the
roads balked on this proposition nnd started
In on an aggressive campaign by cancelling
all traffic relations with the Gulf. Then the
temporary Injunction was asked for and
granted.
It is believed that the Injunction will be
made permanent and that the railroads
which started In to boycott the Gulf will
capitulate In accordance with directions
from the United States court. Gulf' line
officials will show during the trial of the
case that unless the injunction Is made per
manent the attitude of the lines participa
ting In the boycott will seriously affect
many commercial Interests along the Pitta-
burg & Gulf road. This will bo especially
true regarding the lumber trafllc. There are
140 mills along the line of the Plttsburg &
Gulf and fully 90 per cent are local. Tak
ing the proportion of the through rate that
would accrue to the Plttsburg & Gulf under
the present through tariffs na the basis to
the various junction polntn and add the
local beyond , the lumber Interests would be
handicapped to the extent of from 4 to 15
cents per 100 pounds , and In order to meet
U would have to reduce the price below the
cost of production. This would ultimately
result In the closing of the mills.
SOALI'UUS TIIIIIVIO IN CHICAGO.
Clone Relation Salil to IJxUt Ilelvreeu
IlroUrm anil IlnllronilH.
RoporU come from Chicago stating that
that city is just now Infested with moro
ticket "scalpers" than at any time for a
long period. It la estimated that there are
at least fifty , all of whom are doing a thriv
ing business. Tickets to Omaha , Kansas
City , St. Paul , New York or almost any
eastern or western point can ba secured
from the brokere r.t a good discount.
Strangers do not find It such un easy matter
to procure these cut-rate tickets , because
of the recent tests madeby detectives of
the various passenger associations , but
those who are "on to the ropes" seem to
nave no difficulty in securing these tickets ,
A Chicago scalper U reported as saying :
"We have lost all fear of antl-scalplng
legislation. In view of the deala that we
now bavo with the railroads centering In
Chicago I do not see how their officers can
go to congress and lay we should b abol-
200 jackets , agea 4 to 14 , that wcro bought
to sell for $2.00 , will bo on ealo Saturday
morning at 8 o'clock for 75 cents.
200 jackets , ages 4 to 14 , In fancy mix
tures , In boucles and friezes , blues , reds ,
grays and tans , bought to sell at $3.00 , at
$1.59.
300 children's jackets , with or without
sailor collars , In heavy mixtures and plain
goods , nicely trimmed , with braid , bought
to sell for $4.50 , on sale at $2.98.
295 children's jackets , In plain kerseys ,
blues , cadets , rods , browns and greens ; also
100 jackets In fancy mixtures , bought to
sail for $6.50 , on sale at $3.98 each.
200 children's jackets , with sailor collar ,
trimmed with fur , very pretty garments for
the little tots , bought to sell for $8.50 , on
sale at $5.00. We defy competition on the
above garments. Your money back If they
are not satisfactory.
INFANTS' EIDERDOWN CLOAKS.
Nicely made , trimmed with thlbet , bought
to sell nt $1.50 , at only 69c.
200 chllron'a eiderdown cloaks. In grays ,
pinks , cardinals , bluea and browns , bought
to sell for $2.00 , on sale nt 98e.
Ishcd. If the railroads unite to stop ticket
scalping we could not keep our doors
open longer than thirty days. We stay
because the railroads want us to , because
they have use for us. Wo are willing to soli
their tickets so long as they pay us com
missions or make It possible for us to deal
in tickets at less thnn the regular rates. "
In Omaha any close relationship existing
between the brokers and the railroads Is
strenuously denied by both the scalpers and
the roads. A llttlo Instance of the devious
plans of the brokers came to light in the
Blkhorn passenger office this morning , when
Chief Clerk Munn showed the return portion
tion of a ticket , good from Omaha to York.
It had originally been made out good for
passage until September 17. The broker who
purchased it found it "dead" on fain hands on
the 17th and immediately proceeded to raise
the date of limit to the 20th. The ticket
thus raised was disposed of , but the "doc
