"Circulars which will be issued Sep
tember 10 will bring to the Burlington
headquarters at Omaha an importance
in the operative management of the
linos west of the Missouti rivor never
before etijovod here. It involves an
extensive reorganization of the Hues
west of the Missouri river, the rear
rangement following the promotion of
General Superintendent Calvert to the
position of chief engineer of (he entitc
Burlington system, and brings to
Omaha new officials.
"All of the lines west of the river are
to be divided into tfie Nebraska disttict,
and the Wyoming district, each with a
general supetintendent. The Nebraska
district will include the Lincoln, Wy
more and McCook divisions, and its
general superintendant will be II. E.
Byram, the new appointee who comes
fiom theGicat Northern, and his head
quaiters will be at Lincoln. The Wy
oming district will include the Alliance,
Sheridan and newly created Ilnlyoke
divsions. Its general superintendent
will be G. W. Rodes, formerly assist
ant general superintendent under Mr.
Calvert, and his headquarters will be at
Alliance, thus taking away ftom Lin
coln half its operating force and pres
tige. "To make milage balance evenly be
tween the two districts the five divis
ions have been increased to six by cut
ting from the old McCook division the
area from Holdrcgc to Cheyenne, call
ing it the Holyokc division and estab
lishing its 'headquarters at Holyokc
with D. F. McFailan, present assist
ant superintendent of the McCook di
vision, with bis headquuitcrs already
at Holyokc as the new superintendent.
Thus each ditrict gets three diyisions.
"1. S. P. Weeks, the present chief en
gineer, is reappointed to the position of
"engineer, " with headquarters at Lin
coln. This is only a change in title,
however, so that Mr. Calvert alone may
hold the title of chief engineer on the
Builington, and will not affect Mr.
Weeks' authoiity.
"Omaha headquarters will be given
greater operative prestige fiom the
fact that such pfficials as the super
intendent of transpoitation the super
intendent of motive power and ma
chinery, the superintendent of tele
grph and other depaitments hereto
foie established at Liuclu and report
ing direct to General Supeiintedent
Calveit will report to General Manager
Holdregc here, thus requiring an in
crease in his office force.
"The location of the piincip.il shops
at lluvelocu, near Lincoln, ami tlie lo
cation of other impoitaut appurtenan.
ces of the road with refernce to Liuclu
as a geogiaphical center will cause the
retention at Lincoln of all of the de
partment mentioned except that of sup
erintendent of transportation.
"That official is C. L. Eaton, and
ho with his office force will at once
move to heaquarters in this city."
