TIIE OMAHA" DAILY BEE: TflUKSD AT. SEPTEMBER 1. 1001.
SWITCHING FEES ARE RAISED
Charges Advinoed by Union Pcifio u
' Latert Blow te Omaha.
GRAIN EXCHANGE MEN WROUGHT UP
Tfcoagh Apirlar la TfcU
Actios, They Brmi It Me. DIm
erlaslaatl.a Against Local C.m
aacrelal Interests.
! The Union Paclflo hu Just announced the
I anticipated abolishment ef the usual switch
ing charges on (rain forwarded east by
connecting roads, haa abolished entirely
tho method that haa been In vogue tor
year of turning over cara on this aide of
the- river at a 13 a car switching rate and
: will hereafter deliver the cara at Council
' Bluffs at 1 cent for each 100 pound.
By this new schedule the Union Pacific
evidently expects to exact a bridge toll of
considerable proportlona from the grain
, shippers or the connecting lines. At praa
ent the latter have assumed the burden,
but the grain shippers have a fear that In a
! short time they will be called upon to bear
' the burden, which .they claim la unjust,
' unreasonable, unnecessary and plainly in
the line of discrimination against Omaha
that haa become so fashionable of late.
"There Jsn't any question but that the
matter will be brought to the attention of
the Omaha Grain exchange and the Com-
' rnerclal club and that an effort will be
; made to force the Union Pacific to . re
consideration of its latest move against
Omaha," said a strong man in commercial
'circles.
What It Means la Honey.
By the change tn manner of delivering
I grain and the method of charging, the ex-
'pense Is Increased from $3 a car to 15, $6,
17 or even 18 a car. according to capacity
of the car. . Now the Average load to a car
of wheat probably Is 70,000 pounds which
would mean 17 a car. More than this the
Wrest Western, Rock Island and Milwaukee
will not be allowed to take their cara over
on this side but must await their delivery
by the Union Pacific in Council Bluffs. .
In illustration, a car shipped from Omaha
Tow, averaging 70,000 pounds, at a 12-cent
I hundred rate would cost $84, plus 17, the
new over-the-brldge charge, or $91 as com
pared with 187 under the rates In vogue
before this new era of things.
t Aa yet the eastern roads have "absorbed"
(the advance, that is have taken the Union
'Pacific's burden upon themselves, but they
'trongly object to the change and go so
far aa to accredit' the movement to a de
rartre on the part of the Union Paclflo to
I '"play even on bridge tolls."
, Grain shippers are quite excited over the
I action of the Union Pacific and express
P the -opinion hat unless strong protest u
'made this will ha followed by even further
Increases, eventually reacting on the young
and promising grain exchange.
CHAIRS FOR THE AUDITORIUM
QSeats Are nought and First Twenty-
Five Hundred Will Be Here
f Kext Week. ;
I Manager J. M. Gillan. haa returned from
' Chicago, where he Went on business con
nected with the Auditorium. Mr. Qillan
looked over the balcony seats for which the
contract was let three weeks ago to the
American School Furniture company. The
first car of the 2,500 chairs will be shipped
next Monday and the rest in a week. The
chairs are of Iron frame, birch seats, backs
and arms, and are. Manager. Gillan states,
of a better pattern than the kind used In
the Chicago Coliseum.
The flre-proofers will begin their work In
the balcony next Saturday and as soon as
that part of the work is done the chairs
will be installed. . 7
The prosrects for a season of roller
skating at the Auatttorium this autumn are
encouraging. There is , some question
whether the bard-pine floor of the Audi
torium will stand the racket for any length
of time, so to, determine this point Man
ager Gillan will have someone skate ovej
a small portion of the floor for a few day
and note the effects. Hardmaple floors are
commonly used for roller skating. Speak
ing of the evolution of roller skates, .Mr.
Qillan says the latest patterns make the
port more of a pleasure than ever. The
hollow steel 'or aluminum style is much In
(vogue In the east at present. It la esti
mated the Auditorium will accommodate
bout 1,000 skaters. '.
Bousa and his band will be at the Audl
Herlum Monday evening, October 8.
f VALUE WAY BELOW THE COST

' Hemdred,
? .' ' :
.Just why the city had to pay $1,200 for
'lots on the southeast corner of Forty-
' eighth and Leavenworth streets that the
. municipal appraising board has just valued
; at $575, is a problem that some of the peo
ple around the olty hall are trying to solve.
Sometime ago E. C. Woleott, representing
clients, made proposals to buy the lota
The matter- went to the appraising com
(filttee fori a' report. This Is the gist of
fftmat the appraisers have communicated to
the council:
We And upon Investigation that said lots
re known as lots U and 12, block 2, Hherl
dan Place. We also And that the city
f purchased said lots, In 1W for the sum of
$1,200, in order to secure a right-of-way
aarosa said, corner for the Saddle Creek
"r. The sewer Is now completed across
aid lots and crosses both of them diag
onally from the northeast to the south
west. The lots ere filled ground and ulno
,Jelow grade They coniponed part of the
old. creek bod,, and we should Judge it
would be quite expensive to get the proper
footing for a building. We also And that
the oounty treasurer has had said lots in
Is scavenger list for a total of IliO.KS taxes.
The report was approved by the council,
but later referred to the city attorney, so
' the taxes could be stricken off.

was due to her own stubbornness and to
the fact than on numeroua occasion ahe
pretended not to hear her step-parents
