ftlRST CAR FAMINE IN YEARS
All loadi with Southern Coinc'.iois Ara
BcrioBilj Tied Up.
HEAVY CORN MOVEMENT THE CAUSE
talon Pnclflo llnd to Hefnve Mil
lion Bnshela of Wheat He
canse of l.nck of
Cart.
Southern railroad lines are facing a car
famine. Not a road entering Omaha in
the competition for the southern grain haul
can get all the equipment it needs. Some
of the lines have been forced to turn away
business because It could not promise the
cars. While the present shortage Is great
est on the lines Interested In the guif hauls.
It Is by no means conlinod to these lines,
for some of the eastern lines aro couipialu
Ing of a shortage of equipment.
"We had to turn down a haul of 1,000,000
bushels of wheat the other day because we
could not promise the curs," said a Union
Pacific man. "A northwestern shipper
wanted 1,0(0 cars, but we could not promise
them and we had to lose the haul."
The shortage is caused by the unusual de
mand for cars to carry the export groin to
Galveston and New Orleans. ThH move
ment is the largest In yearn, and tho situa
tion Is aggravated by the fuct if th :)iui l
age of tho corn nop in Mlse"'i:l u::d thu
failure in parts of Kansas, whirli w .: de
vastated by floods. Second crops of corn
were planted, but tl.? grain did not muttiie.
This has created a demand for northern
grains and has made a demand for curs
which Is usually divided with tho exclu
sively southern lines.
"The southern shipinnnls are abnormal.
While we aro not as bad off as sumo of the
other lines, the situation Is bad enough.
We have not really been short, but we have
not been ablo to get all the curs wo could
use."
On the Burlington the situation has been
partly relieved the last week as the re
sult of the edict forbidding curs to be
shipped outside of Burlington territory.
The Burlington ulso has drawn heavily
upon Its eastern territory to relieve the
pressure west of tho river, with the result
that there Is a stringency oust of the Mis
souri, but the road manages to keep Its
cars In motion on the eastern lines, and
this hus relieved the congestion to some ex
tent. llenvy Movement of Corn.
"We never have had such a time getting
cars," said a Rock Island man. "We can't
begin to get the cars we need. The cause
of It? Oh, the heavy movement of export
com. There has boen nothing like It In
years. Owing to the rates It Is all moving
to the gulf this year and very little Is going
by rail to the eastern ports. One great
fault is the cars are ail going one way. If
we could keep them moving we should be
all right, but we are unable to get them
back. They go to the gulf ports and have
to stay there until they are unloaded.
Shippers are clamoring for cars and we
are doing the same thing. I don't know
how long It will last. We expected It would
let up two weeks ago, but today the situa
tion Is as bad as ever and the end Is not
in sight."
A Missouri Pacific man spoke along the
same lines.
- "All the hauls," he said, "are one, way.
We have to haul back empty cars, but
wo would be willing to do this If we could
get the cars. This Is almost impossible.
We can't 'borrow, because the other roads
are aa bad off as we are. See all the
loaded cars of grain that we have been
shipping snath for the last two or three
weeks. We aro getting none of these cars
back. We have today 600,000 bushels of
corn more than we have cars for. I ex
pect we will be able to get it out of the
way, but it will take time. .The shippers
will have to wait, for we simply can't get
the cars, and I think you will find that
the othor roads are In about the same fix.
Some of them are short of engines as well
aa cars."
REAL ESTATE VIEWS
Alfred C. Kennedy of the firm of Howard
Kennedy & Son says: "1904 was the best
year for real estate sales since the boom,
and there are many Indications that 1005
will be still better. An encouraging feature
of the movement Is that it Is not confined
to any one class of property or to uny one
locality, but Includes all kinds of properties
and is general all over the city. If yon
were to look up the transfers on the map
you would be surprised to see how much
trackage property changed hands during
the year in addition to the Great Western
and Grain Terminals, and further Investi
gation would show that it waa almost all
for use. The Dletz purchase near the Meta
brewery, the Pierce deal on the bottoms
north of Nicholas street, new coal yards at
Twenty-fifth and Saylor streets und a
dozon others to which I could call your
attention. Then, too, a number of pur
chases were made for Investment purposes.
Among our own recent sales was the three
story brick building at 1921-23 Leavenworth
street, a small hotel property In the down
town district, u row of fluts on Twenty
fifth street, the three-story brick building
at 101 South Twelfth street und a bunch
of cottages in Hie north end of town.
"The truth of the matter Is we have a
better town than we realize. We have been
so busy scolding about high taxes and try
ing to see that our neighbors, the rail
roads, telephone company, wholesale mer
chants, etc., were cuught for the full
amount of their taxable property we huve
not had time to notice the constant In
crease In population, the new business en
terprises quietly occupying vacant store
rooma and the healthy, prosperous condi
tion of business generally. Some of these
fine mornings we will wako up and be
surprised to find that we are living In the
best and most prosperous town of Its size
In America."
C. F. Harrison of Harrison & Morton
says: "As It seems to me, the thlnfj to be
emphasized In regard to Omaha la it lo
cation. It seems to be a natural economic
law that cities spring up at certain strate
gic points. That Omaha Is one of these
strategic points is demonstrated by tho very
fact of Its existence an a town of over
100,000 population. It Is sold to be a historic
fact that no town of this size ever retro
grades. Omahu's population hus for a good
many years borne a certain ratio to the
population of the btate of Nebraska. Tho
ratio has been about one to, ten. In all
probability this ratio will continue,, and ua
the state Increases In population and wealth
Omaha will increase In the tamo propor
tion. The history of cities is that they
grow faster as they grow bigger.
"Two notable events have occurred within
the last eighteen months that have some
what awakened Omaha citizens to the new
and great growth upon which the city Is
entering One of these events was the com
ing of the Great Western, and, more par
ticularly, the exploiting of Omuha's re
sources by the president of that company.
Nothing hus occurred since the locating of
the stock yards of greater moment to
Omaha than the establishment of a grain
market at tills point. While this market Is
In the process of development there la no
doubt that it will be a succets. Too much
credit cannot be given to Mr. Stickney, not
alone for makltig It possible to have a grain
market Iiits, hut for his exploitation of the
resources of the Stat, mskuig It plain that
Omaha was the natural center for the busi
ness resources of the state. Seventeen
years) ago this city took on a great expan
sion, awakening apparently In a night to
the fact that It was no longer to be a town
or village, but a city. Vast publio works
were Inaugurated. Much private building
was undertaken, real estate values doubled
and trebled, speculation was rife and we
had what has come to be called, although
we denied It then, a boom. A more proper
description of the city's condition would
pei haps be an over-expanRion and an Infla
tion of values beyond real worth.
"Since then Omaha has had an Internal
growth, greater than any preceding equal
period and the tery conservatism Caused by
the last over-expansion and the loes occur
ring then hts brought us to a condition
where the experience of 1JW7 In a modified
form is likely to be duplicated.
"The country had outgrown the city In
ISM and 17, hence the revolution whlrh
took place In city values. The country has
now again outgrown tho city and if experi
ence tenches anything It ia that a modified
revolution is likely to ajraln occur. The
wealth of the state at largo has Increased
from 20 to SO per cent, while the value of
Omaha real estate stands practically the
same us ten years ago.
"The other Important event Is the sssur
snee of an lnterurhan system for Omaha.
This demonstrates the growth of the coun
try and will bo followed by the growth of
the city. Tho last year, taking It as a
whole, was perhaps the best real estate
year within the last fourteen, but the year
was notable for tho absence of any specu
lative feeling. It will simply be Impossible
to prevent the speculative element making
Itself felt, whenever a new expansion,
which Is sure to come, takes place. The
natural courso of expansion, us shown by
our unpuralelled advance in 1SS6 and 18X7.
Is from tho country Into tho city. It Is
possible that tho conservatism developed
by our former over-exranslon may retard
the leBitlmate growth that Is at our doors
so that we may not see a revolution In
valU'.-s this yeuf. Hut by a natural eco
nomic law governing the growth of great
communities whose resources are practi
cally unlimited the change will come."
Hasting & Hcyden report thut they built
twenty-two modern houses lust yrur. rang
ing In price from tl.500 to $5,000, mootly six
and soven rooms, all modern, which size
seem to be in demand more man tne
larger houses. They platted Bluff View ad
dition (cornering on Kountze Place) last
June, and now you can see seven new mod
ern houses already built and a number
more In course of construction. InBldo of
one year thero will be fifteen new houses
in this new addition, and twenty-five out of
thirty-three lots have already been sold at
prices from $Ju0 to $000. A great deal of
the vacant ground In Omaha could be Im
proved In tho same way If the owners
would sell at a price that Is within the
reach of the medium class of people that
want homes. This firm la doing a great
deal in the way of buying up vacant pieces,
platting them and selling at prices thai
are reasonable, and beginning to Improve
them.
Another addition has recently been
opened lying along tho new South Boule
vard, between Hanscoin park and Twenty
fourth and Vinton. The lots range in price
from $300 to $500. A number of lots have
already been sold, mostly to South Omaha
stockmen, who have already started to
build.
Ernest Sweet says: "Little, perhaps, can
bo said that will give a fairer idea of
Omaha and its future than the recent ex
position of Industries and trade given by
the dally ptipers following the close of the
year. One can hardly study the summary
and fall to see that Omaha has advantages
peculiarly its own. A year ago it waa said
1904 would be a record-breaker. The proph
esy has more than been fulfilled. That a
larger business will be done In 190S Is con
ceded by all. We expect to make more
commission sales and will build more mod
ern homes than ever to sypply Increasing
patronage. "
F. J. Fitzgerald of the Fitzgerald-Der-mody
company says: "There Is a condi
tion existing in tho Omaha real estate mar
ket today that while It has been slow com
ing, has been brought about by natural
causes. That Is, the attention of the spec
ulator in real estate la attracted this way.
While during the lust few yeura you could
find purchasers for small properties, today
there Is a demand for good Income proper
ties ranging from $15,0110 to $T0,0iio by parties
who have the cash and consider Omaha
property the best Investment to be hud.'
The entrance of tho Great Western railroad
and the grain terminals, the new elevators
to be built, have advertised this city to the
world, while the new Hougland block, the
building by J. L. Brandels & Sons of one of
the finest department stores In the west,
and tho prospects of another record-breaking
year in the building lines, has con
vinced the sceptical ones here ut home that
the time has come to purchase Omaha real
eBtate."
