Hoyden Bros Chicago no a Starting Place. There is a rumor afloat in the railway cir cles to the effect ct .t the Union Pacific is considering the ad sability of running its "Golden Gate Spee.al" direct through to Chicago , and to m.io Chicago its starting poiut instead of Omaha and Council Bluffs. General Manager Klmball was questioned concerning the matter and said : "Nothing decisive has boon done in this respect. It is true that this matter has boon talked of and is now being considered , but in-various ways. AVe put this train on in order to find out the demands of tbo traveling public. Should it meet with a satisfactory patronage , wo will increase the service in this respect. Now as to our company running our trail through to Chicago , I will say that wo would much prefer that other roads Joining our eastern terminus , operate similar trains. It would better lor us that roads so operate , and then wo would not bo called upon to discriminate in patronage. "Yes , wo have talked with the manage ments of both the Chicago , Milwaukee & St. Paul and Chicago & Northwestern system concerning tills matter , but wo have arrived at no conclusion. The Northwestern , however - over , is in favor of the transaction , and such n matter may bo brought about in the fu ture. " It was stated in othcr railway circles that the Northwestern and Union Pacific have almost completed arrangements for the run ning of the hitter's trains over the tracks of the former to Chicago , mid that the move ment was instituted in order to obtain n foot hold on the through passenger tratllo of the Burlington to Denver.

Qulnn , of the Barker hotel , concern the Union Pa- clflo charging more for transportation from Thirteenth street to South Omaha than from the depot on Ninth street , thu oulcials sUto that the distance is 11.74 miles in the latter instance , which would entitle them to charge 11 cents instead of 10 , and that the distance from the Thirteenth street point is on the 20 cent scale , being 3.30 miles , Tlicro are prospects of Peter Harvey , trav eling passonccr agent of the Baltimore & Ohio , moving bis headquarters from St , Paul , Minn. , to Omaha at an early date , Mr. Harvey was a guest of General Western Agent Wight , of the same system , several lays ago , and the latter stated that Hurvoy ntimatoil that ho also would locate hero In the near future. A rumor is in circulation to the effect that the Union Paclflo would nt an early data tuko possession of the Central branch , which is low being operated by tbo Missouri Pacific. The report at the headquarters of the Union Pacific is denied. The management states .hat this branch was turned over to the Mis souri Pacific about llvo years ago on a twen ty , live years' ' lease , and that the management of tlio Missouri Pacific has never solicited the cancellation of the lease.

"I take , " said Colonel Bell , "great stock In Newark , N. J. , which Is my native place , but you have finer buildings and better streets than they have. Coining over the Northwestern- last nicht when wo got to Council Bluffs , I asked Major Steadumn if Omaha was much larger than this city ( meaning the Bluffs ) . 'Well , rather,1 said 'Matt' with a smile , and sure enough I received one of the greatest sur prises of my life when 1 discovered your beautiful city. "Yes , sir ; I have Just completed my periodical inspection of the various districts , and I find this one , in which Omaha forms a part , singularly free from the 'queer. * 1 wish to say now , as chief of the department , that this satisfactory state of affairs is due in n great measure to the untiring energy of your inspector , Major Steadumn.
