The publication In last night's BEE o , the decision of Commissioner Falthorn of Chicago , relative to the through-bill ing of Nebraska live stock on the Union Pacific road to Chicago , caused no little excitement in business circles , The older was substantially ai follows : "Tho Union Pacific Is not allowed to nee local rates , and all llvo stock of the clisi indicated must bo oanslgnod throughout to Chicago , but Itwill bo allowed to atop consignments at Omaha , and in event of tholr sale the Iowa linos' proportion will bo deducted in the busi ness reported to the pool. It will bo allowed to do this because Omaha is the terminus of the Union Pacific or on its direct lino. The privilege , however , is donltd to the Burlington & Missouri and Sioux City & Pacific roida fcr the reason that In older to roach Omaha they would divert traffic from tholr through lines which cross the river at Plattsmouth and Blair. " The change 1 generally regarded as a most unfortunate ono for Omaba in many recpects ; it Is feared , in fact , by these conversant with the facts of the cage , that it will give a black eye to the stock interests of the city. Of n number of gentleman who conversed upon the matter - tor with a BEE reporter yesterday there was not ona but expressed hlmaolf as of the opinion that the now order would work evil to the stock interaata of Omaha If allowed to remain In force very long. Said Mayor Boyd to a reporter who asked him his opinion of the matter : ' 'So far n.i I can see , thin change wilt work Injury to the Omaha stock yards , provided the B. & M. folks will bj prevented from shipping utock Into the city , and I suppose they will. Of course the Sioux City & Pacific will likewise bo prac tically debarred from shipping any stock through Omaha , but this will not make a pattlclo of difference. Why ? Becauao Omaha receives very llttlo stock over the lines of the Northwestern syo- torn. To bo sure , wo got some from the the St. Paul branch , but from the Elkhorn - horn Valley extension little or nothing. From the Barilngton & Missouri , how ever , Omaha receives considerable stock , and to have that supply cut off by the operation of tMi order will be a bid thing for the city , certainly. If the order could bo made to apply to all Nebraska roade , no as to allow them to do through billing from western points to Chicago , with atop-over privileges In Omaha , then certainly the change would prove a great banefit to our city. But so far as I can see now the Union Pacific will secure all the advantages to bo reaped from the chance. " A number of other stockmen expressed themselves as being of similar views. General Manager floldrodgo , of the Burlington & Missouri , upan being shown the order yesterday , said that as at present adviapd , ho thought the change would prove Injurious to both Omaha ncd the Burlington & Mlscontl road. It would prevent hla road ? , undoubtedly , from sending livestock through Omaha ai similar rates as through Plutlamouth. aiD General Freight Agent Shelby , of the Union Pacific , esil that he didn't care to express an extended opinion upon the subject of Commissioner Faltorn'u order until that gentleman notified him officially of the change. Ho said , how ever , that he was Inclined to think It would work a serious Injury to tbo stock II Interests of this city. The Union Pacific , ho ramarked , would not ba at all pleased with , the chaugo because it wanted to do all it could to build up the otock Interest Omaha. or ABMY AFFATES , lo loPt Pt I'no Tmprovoinonts at Fort Nlobrnra tlr CO -Tlio Ilosebua Agency 'Jronblo at Other MnttorH. tn to Gon.

BuildIIIR. The members of the Bricklayers Union mat Tuesday night in K. of L. hall to discuss the matter of resuming work on the B. & M. headquarters addition. It will bo remembered that labor on this structure came to an end last week when the bricklayers discovered that the stone which ws being put into the building had been cut by convict labor , having come from Jollot. The sotslon was a long and heated ono , nearly every union bricklayer iu the city balng present. Tbo mooting die ! not ad journ until after midnight. It was by a very close vote decided that the bricklay er. ] employe on the B. & M. building should finish tlio work on the structure , inasmuch as tlu contractors , Bailey & Olsenlind not ordered the cut ntono , and know nothing of its having been brought from the Joliet penitentiary. It was further decided that a notice should nt once ho Issued for the benefit of the con tractors and architects of this city tint hereafter no union bricklayers would work on a building into which material wes being put which had been furnished by convict labor. The quontlon of con vict labor was thoroughly discussed and the union decided that every moans avail able should bo nsedto deal with the evils of the system. The bricklayers will go to vrork upon thn building to-day. It is said that whan work is resumed , still other complica tions are apt to arise. The stone which is to go into the building will hive to bo ° trimmed , and the men balongiog to the stonecutters nnion vriil not bo alloued to do the work , as tholr constitution strict ly forbids their working ou atone furn ished by convict labor. If mon are then procured to do the necstsiry trimmingtho union threatens to declare them scabs and again otdor the bricklayers to quit work. The brickliyors will then bo obliged to yield , as the stonecutters' and bricklay ers' unions have a compact to stand by each other in all cisej. The bricklayers' Y union has no convict labor clause In its constitution , and hones the willingness of the men to return to work. Tin object in again calttcg the men out of the building la stated by the stonecutter - Jt cutter a to bo for the purpose of forcing the Burlington & Missouri company to reject the stone already secured irom Of Jollot and replace it with now stone which has not been handled by convict Otw hbor. st ce or it Ho Visits Omaha nnd Given n Ftw Facts lit Kclntlon to the Fcelliij : f Bstweoit I'resiaont Olov and coca and the Bouth coW ca Hon.

J Cote QEANI'S ' OBSEQUIES , Senator Mnmlcreon Described Homo Attending Incidents tt'liRt llo Thinks of. ( ho New < ; ttlo Order , A reporter for the Ben met Samto Manderson hit night and engaged him in an intoioitlng conversation upon his trip cast. Ho left hero last vrcok , it may bo romomboiol , going to Philadelphia , and thence to Now York , where ho at tended the Grant obsequies as a member of the smto committee appointed by Vice President Hcndrlcka. "There was ono thin ; ; remarkable about the funoril , " remarked Senator Mandor * eon In the course of an Interesting talk upon thu subject , "that was the wonder ful stillness whieh pervaded the vast con- canrsaof people who witnessed the funeral - oral of Gen. Grant. There- wen at least 1,500,000 people on the Directs , including the spcctatora aud the 50,000 men in line. In all the throng , the most death-like tilciico was observed. Evi dences of profound respect aud honor for the memory of the dead soldier there wore , but no demonstration of violent grief. Twenty years ago I had thn sad prlvliega of witnessing the funeral pa geant of Abraham Lincoln , The crowd then was vastly smaller than on the occa sion of Gan. Grant's funeral , but the ex pression of bitterest sorrow was very noticeable. Of course the violent manner - ner of Lincoln's doith wan the occasion . of n bitter grief , hardly to bo caused by the demise of Gen. Grant. " "It in wondiirfnl to note Into what close relations the funeral brought old aoidioH of the blue and the gray , " continued the general , musingly. "I myself rose with Wade Hampton , of South Carolina. All war difloroQces seemad to bo wiped out , and Incidents of the rebellion wore re vived and cHncusncd with great interest. " Speaking of the order of President I Cleveland , ordering tha taking down of \ fences from the public lands , Senator Mandurson said that ho dldnot think that the cattle Interests of this alato would bo tlei seriously Bli'jctad thereby. Tno now or der > ho sr.id would undoubtedly give Ne braska ttockmcn a chuico to buy cattle at very Ion pricoa from the Ohorokoo strip VIol land. Ho was of the opinion that national legislation ought to allow the lands of each western state and territory to llo under supervision of a commission IIw which should determine the lands which were fit for settling up , and tbi'JW them open I for Immigration. These lands not immediately available for arable purposes CE , could bo uted for ranch purposes on such tenns that the lesco could bo cancelled - celled upon six months notice. Such a state of atl'ilrs , ho thought , would bo ben- eficlrxl not only to Nubraska , but to other cattle grazing states and territories in the west. Senator Manderspn loaves to-day on a four weeks somi-otiiclal visit of inspection to Utah , Montana and Idaho , and to the Yellowstone park , as a member of the senate commlitaa on territories. Burglars Last evening Officar Turnbnll arrested John Harris , whltu , and William WI1- Bon , colored , for tha burglary of the store R. Kalish , the Thirteenth street tailor , Ot Monday night.

When Harris wes arrested , mi In though , ho gave thu whole thing away. He said that ho effected the entrance to re th ; the store and secured more goods than ho ch could take away , Ho , therefore , went to In Wihon acd zccnred his sosvlceo to help n cm : carry off the goods , the understanding ba being that the proceeds of the robbery vll were to bo divided equally between them. on Both men were confined in the city jail , eel 3rid ] will before appear ujdgo Stonborg Lu this morning for examination.
