At the meeting! which have been held In Chicago thla week an outline of the proposed terma of settlement practically have been agreed upon, although no definite settlement haa been reached. The plan which probably will be adopted to end the war la to make the ratea on all grain shipment originating at point In Nebraska tributary to Omaha through to Chicago the rum of the local ratea into Omaha and the proportional rate out. Thla combination will not apply to the entire atate. There will be a atrip north of the Flatte rtrer. extending across the atate. Met and weat, and a email portion of the outheaat corner of the atata, where through ratea may be mad, regardleaa at the local and proportional rataa. It ta believed the differential which la to govern aa between Chicago and St. Lout haa been settled. It probably will be I oenta per hundred Inatead of ( cents, aa It was before the trouble began. The rates. It la believed by local freight men. will not be aa high aa they were before ttie war began. It la thought the new proportional ratea will be 11 oenta on wheat and 11 cent on corn from the Ml- aourl river to Chicago, aa against 14 cent on wheat and 13 cent on corn prior to the beginning of the fight. It Is said no special concessions have been made by any of the roads which have been engaged in the fight, but that all have given In to a certain extent to reach an agreement and atop the Immense loss to all the lines. Eailm Lines Also Settle. During the time that the western associa tion has been trying to adjust its difference tho eastern association also has been hold Ing daily meetings in Chicugo to try to patch up a truce, and the report cornea that It haa been almost as sucoessful aa have the western members. Most of the detail work preparatory to a formal settlement of the western rate war will be accomplished prior to the meeting which Is to be held next Tuesday to reach a final adjustment Members of the arao ciutlon now In Chicago are going over the matter individually and preparing an out line of the basis on which each proposes to settle. One of the best posted freight officials In the city, in speaking of the matter, said: "There la not much doubt but that Omaha ta lu in wvit ia&cu uio vi in inis sviuv- ment. Thla market will have the advantage of a through rate the same as the sum of the local and proportional from a large por tion of the state when a final adjustment is made and this will be a great Improve ment over the rates In effect prior to the war for the reason that at that time all Nebraska rates were against this city. A large percentage of the grain raised In the state should, under the new tariffs, be mar keted In Omaha." GREAT BRlHDF.il PTHCH1IE.

In his opinion, the next legislature will make provision for this need, which. he said, could only be oppoeed by thoi-e who are Ignorant of the existing oondlilona and of the system that has been so sue oessfully worked out to relieve such con dition. The truant officer, he said, haa done more to reach Juvenile offenders and their natural guardians than any other agency that ever has been employed in the state, but the work of this officer and Its good effects have been materially hindered for the want of the restraining and other Influences upon the environment of the child provided In the Juvenile court system to supplement It.

The cattlemen. It la said, believe they can secure sufficient reduction In the present ratea of freight to buy themselves tickets for their return home when they accompany their stock to market.
