TRIUMPHAL ENTRY.

Trunk Lines Will Follow tlio Kx-
ninploortho ItitrUngton.
For years it has boon supposed thnt the
Chicago , Burlington & Quincy ritilroad
company would run their trains into
Omaha , by way of Plattsmouth. So cer
tain has tlila thing boon considered that
every few days or weeks the announce *
rncnt has boon made through the press of
this city that on certain days the regular
through trains of the Burlington would
bo run into thin city , and each time the
prophecy failed.
A few weeks since THE BKH , in advance -
vance of all cotomporarios , as usual ,
niado the announcement , that on a certain
Sunday , the 0. , B. & Q , company would
run its through train * into thin city. The
day arrived , , as stated , but the train did
not. The announcement , however , had
not boon made for I ho sake of creating
a sensation , for a BEE repre
sentative had boon shown an
oflicial order from headquarters
that the train vrould bo run au
announced , but for some reason ,
unknown to all except the olllcinla ,
the ordnr was countermanded.
Another order was issued from head
quarters to the effect that the through
train would run in here , and that.also
was countermanded. So it will bo soon
that some ol thcso announcements have
not been without grounds for the same.
Thursday afternoon it was rumored
that the 0. , B. & Q. would commence
to-day to run n through express train
from Chicago to this city and return , but
ai there had boon ao much speculation in
the matter , those to whoso oars the rumor
came did not giyo much credence to the
same , thinkino ; , in all probability , that it
was a false alarm , Yesterday , however -
ever , it wns olllcially announced that the
express train would , without fail , enter
this city , and quite a little party of know
ing ones gathered 'at the depot to greet
the now comer. The newspaper men
had heard the news and were out in full
forco.
This time there was no mistake about
the matter and the order was not coun
termanded , but about Gftoon minutes
past ton o'clock the
F1UST IHKOUUII TllAIN
of the Chicago , Burlington & Quincy
road , from Chicago to Omaha , rolled up
to the B. & M. depot and halted amid
the applause of the chosen few who had
boon elected to witncsss the triumphal
entry.
The train was composed of ono baggage -
gage car , five coaches , ono sleeping car
and the director's car of the B. & M. ,
and was pulled by a 0. , B. & Q. engine.
The tram was not loaded with many
passongorti , but nevertheless it was a
through train from Chicago into Omaha ,
and was the most welcome visitation this
city has experienced in a long time
and each man who was present
felt like walking up to
the iron horse and yellow colored coaches
and potting ] | th em as ho * would an old
friend who had boon away from homo for
many long years and had at last returned
to remain forovor.
The time of the now train will bo as
follows : It will arrive in this city at
0:25 : a. m. and depart at1:50 : p. m. ,
standard time , making it arrive at i:00 ) : a.
m. , and depart at 4:25 : p. m. , Omaha
timo. Last Sunday a through coach from
Chicago to Omaha was placed upon the
K. 0. & St. J. train , which loaves this
city at 8:50 : a. in. , standard time , or 8:25 :
a. in. , Omaha time , each morning. This
car will not bo affected by the putting on
of this through train , but will bo run as
heretofore each morning. This train will
not affect the through train into the trans
fer across the river either , as the regular
mail train will bo run into Council Blurt's
as usual , at least for the present.
Among the people assembled at the
depot yesterday there was any amount
of speculation as to what would bo the
outcome of this now departure. Many
said that it would bo the moans of bring
ing the other Towa trunk lines into Omaha
without delay , some oven declaring that
it would bo done inaido of forty-eight
hours , while others placed the time atone
ono wouk. The incapacity of the Union
Pacific to accommodate the Iowa
trains in their yards at this
place was also talked ever , but
an employe of the Union Pacific and one ,
' ,00 , Who is in a position to know , uayc
.hat the Iowa trains can bo handled here
vith the present facilities. It icighl
loccaaitato a change in the frnight busl
,1038 of the Union Pacific , but that could
bq satisfactorily arranged by changing
ho freight depot to the lowoi
yards and using the upper yart
principally for passenger business ,
Again it may bo that the freight dope
will bo moved down the track near tin
unit works. Certain it is that it is no
ho intention of the Union Pacific com
; > any to use the present freight depot fo :
A great length of time , as'it 1ms never ru
coivod any repairs ainco its construction
moving of the freight business thor
would bo plenty of room in the uppo
yards to haudlo all the lowix pasjongo
trains. >
It is now talked that the Iowa trun
lines will invade the city of Omaha wit !
their passenger trains , in which cato tli
Chicago it Northwestern will cross th
river on their bridge at Blair and com
down through the Florence cut-off , whil
the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul , th
It oak Island and the Wabath would cron
the Union Pacific bridge at this point.
A * seen by yesterday morninu's dli
patches , the iforthweatorn and Wabasl
are likely to bo forced to go out of th
ttipartito agreement , in which case th
Union Pacific , Milwaukee & St. Paul an
ttin Hock Island will carry out the origi
nal pgroemont which cave to it the nam
of tripartite. Hence it stands io roaso
that the three roads mentioned are o
terms of a most friendly nature , and th
two Iowa roads would bo permitted t
prat's the bridge.
The question of a depot was also froel
dismusod , and many plans were draw
and u number of depots were built iu tli
air , Ono said that the present dep <
would bo extended to Tenth street , ati
that a scsond story vrould bo built. Aftt
'tis ' WAS done a viaduct would bo built
vcr the tracks at Tenth street , and the
iftduct would communicate with the sec-
nd story of the depot. Others orcctcdin
ioir minds , an elegant an commodious
ow union depot , with all the modern
mprovomonts and conveniences , and a
tructuro which would reflect great credit
pen any city. Bo all this as it may ,
THE BEE is glad to mention the arrival of
through Chicago train into Omaha ever
ho 0. , B. & Q. road , and anticipates
; oed results fiom the same.

THE FLORENCECUT-OFF ,
_
The Excavating all Done and a
Force of Men
Now Employed In ImjitiK Tliubora
Preparatory to I'uttlng Down
tlio HnllR.
Tiio work of excavation at the Florence
cut-off by the Chicago , Minneapolis , St.
Paul & Omaha railway has at lost been
completed , although the work has , by no
moans , been finished. The magnitude of
this work surpasses anything of its kind
in Nebraska , and taking into considera
tion the diflicultios and obstacles to bo
overcome , the labor was a Herculean
ono. Tlio contract for the work was lot
in the early part of 1881 , and the work
was begun in May of that year. The
work was done for the railroad company
by the cubic yard , and the cost has been
moro than treble what was contemplated.
The original contract called for thorcmo-
val of 400,000 cubic yards of earth , but
in this calculation the company wns
laboring under n great error. The ob
ject of this cut was to shorten the dis
tance between Florence and Fort Cal
houn , which , as the crow Hies , is about
six miles , but the old road bed is nearly
thirteen. The distance by rail between
these two points , when the track is laid ,
will bo about six and one-naif miles. A
second object of this great undertaking
was to lesson the grade , 'which , in some
places , is most dillicult of ascent' , and
sometimes dangerous in descent.
When thn contract was lot originally
for this work it was thought by the com
pany that the nature of the dirt was such
that the sides of t\io cut could bo loft
almost perpendicular. In ttiat the com
pany wns mistaken nnd caused the error
in its first calculation. The distance ever
which the company haa boon doing work
is about six miles , but , with the excep
tion of a few small cuts , the work has
boon confined to the largo ones. These
two cuts are about three-quarters of a
milo apart. The first onois 2,700 feet
long , 20 ! ! wide at the top , and 20 at the
bottom , the ddbpost cut bointf 80 feet.
The second ono is 2,000 foot Jong , about
200 wide at the ton and 20 at the bottom ,
the deepest cut being GO font. It was
thought by the company that a width of
100 foot nt the tops of thcso cuts and 20
at the foot irould bo sufiiclonb to keep
tlio sides from slidingin. It was expect
ed that a hard clay would bo founed , but
in its stead the laborers have had to
work in many places through a- wet and
oozy earth of the consistency ot mortar.
This quality of earth caused the company
to enlarge its work , and .instead1 of mov
ing 400.0CO cubic yards , 1,100,000' were
taken out.
This work has cost the company- nearly
$200,000 and as yet is not nearly com
pleted. The amount of work done and
its magnitude can in some measure bo
imagined when the fact , that for nearly
three years continuously a small army of
laborers haa boon at work upon it with
the spade , shovel , teams and dump .oars ,
is considered. Most of that time a force
of from 200 to 2GO men with ( JO teams
have been at work moving this masai of
earth , which in some Instances was
'loaded ' into dump cars and hauled a dis
tance of throo-djUartors of a mile.
The contractor of this work has labored
Imany times during its progress under
'great ' disadvantages arising from both.tho
cold and wet -weather. For days at a
time wo k would bo entirely suspended1
on account > of the danger to workmen , ,
arising from , land slides occasioned-by
the wet weathe ? . In the winter tho'dif-
ficultiea were not much less. When
the ground was frozen , which was the
cane during most of the time the last two
winters , dynamite was rasorted to. to
enable the workmen to make any head
way in their labors with the pick and
shovoll
The road bed through the cut has-been
brought to the determined grade and < no
more dirt need bo moved in aider to lay
the ties and rails. Thisgrado in no plaoo
is greater thaa 05 foot per mile , whereas
thatof the old track at Mill Crookand
Deer Crook summits is 110 foot. The
company haa now a force of moii.nt . worlh.
laying timbers in the miry and oozy
places of the cut preparatory to laying
town the tioa. How long this will take
doponda. upon the number of < nioniem-
pluyod. When this is done the work
of laying the ties and rails , -will bo of
short duration. The work o the cc-n-
tnvitor is by no moans finished , a force
of 175 men being now employed in
"sloping" the sides of the two great cuts
to prevent future land slides
The laborers and these connected with
his work have boon very fortunate , and
during the three years that this work has
teen in progress only twomoa have boon
atally injured , and they have mot their
loath from dynamito. Ono was killed
about two weeks ago while carrying dyn-
unite from the magazuio to a place whore
'twas molted preparatory to blasting.
What occasioned the oxplocionvrill novot
> o known , as tlio man who was killed bv
t was the only one who ever know. The
other man was killed by the same explosive -
plosive while preparing it for a charge.
All that remains to bo done now is to
ay the track through the out , whicli
with n proper force of mou can bo done
n two days. Before this month has ex-
lircd the cut will bo invaded by the iron
lorso and the railroad distoncs short'
mod six miles , with a much bettor roat !
jed and tirade.
