It wns noticed , Wednesday , that nn engi
neering corpfl wnscngugcd In mnulnrj sound
ings In the river north of the Oinnlm nnd
Council Bluffs bridge and an Investigation
led to the development of the details of the
Brent schema.
The plan Is not a now ono. It has been
tbo subject of ft grcnt deal nf discussion
r.moiiR local capitalists and business inon
but has not until recently assumed any
tangible form ,
The company at present back of the plan is
composed of a number of leading onMcrn
capitalists , the principal holders being W. A.
Underwood , president of the American
Waterworks company , nnd C. II. Vonnor &
Co. , the principal owners of the American
Waterworks stock. The only local capital
ists directly Interested nro Hon. John A. Mo *
Stinno and Mr. J. I ) . Uuniont.
The company is styled the Nebraska Cem-
trnl railway company , nnd U a reorganization
of the corporation of that name that possesses
ncbartcr for a bridge across the Missouri
river secured by Hon. John A. McShaiio
Wliou ho was In congress. The latter Is.prcs-
idontof the root-Ran izcJ company , J. H. Du-
inont vlco pros.dout and trcusuror , nnd
Gcorgo C. JJarnum secretary.
These Kuntlomon have boon at work for
Bovonu months parfoctlng the plans for the
enterprise that they now propose to dovolop.
They have foil the necessity and Importance
of securing bettor railway facilities for
Omiilm anil Nebraska , unil have adopted the
most foastblo plan for supplying thU need ,
Mr. Underwood , president of the Water
Works oouipany , has tnkon a very deep In
terest In the city and its developments. Hn
lias been in the east for some months nnd
lias secured the co-oparatton of a number of
capitalists who hava ngrood to take tuu bonds
of the corporation und push the enterprise.
The local work In connection with the pro
ject lias been conducted by Mr. McSuano und
Mr. Dutnont , who have sucoootlod in inter
esting local capitalists ana bringing the plnn
ready for decisive action.
The company proposes to build a double
track nloel railway bridge across the Mis
souri river at some point abova the present
bridges and below the north , line of the city
of Florence , provided Douglas county will
donate $250,000 of 5 per cent twenty-year
bonds , to bo delivered to the company when
tno bridge is completed and ready for use.
The company proposes to build a bridge
that will cost nearly , if not quite , 81,000,000 , ,
nnd to expend in its construction nnd in se
curing terminal facilities nnd building a
depot nt least $1,000,000. The prlmo object
of the project is to afford tbo Iowa
roads means of access to Omaha and No'
braslcu , and it is hoped and expected that
the Missouri Paciflo , Hock Island , Chicago ,
Milwaukee & St. Paul , and. the Wabash
railway companies will tnko ndvnntago of
the opportunities offered aiul will join in a
union depot. It is proposed also , by this en
terprise , to furnish a menus of access to
Omnliii and Nebraska to the Winona St
Southwestern railway that is now being
bnllt. in this direction through Wisconsin
nnd will undoubtedly bo completed to Ouinhn
within the next three years , giving to tiiis
city and state a direct line to the great lum
ber districts of Wisconsin and the north.
It is proposed to hnvo terminal facilities
so arranged that railways crossing the now
bridge will bo furnished connections
with the Dclt line to enable thorn
to extend their lines west from Omaha und
through the state In any direction.
The organization is not backed by any
foreign railway company , but is composed of
Omaha men who have interested eastern
capitalists with them in promotion of this
grout cntorpriso for the development of the
city and state.
The company proposes to commence work
on the bridge nt once and ono or the condi
tions under which it is proposed to vote the
bonds Is that they shall not bo delivered to
the company unless work has boon com
menced upon the bridge toy the fifteenth day
of next Juno , or the bridge is not completed
by the twenty-second day of Juno , 1893.
The location | for the nroposcd bridge has
not yet been decided upon. A number of
surveys have been made and soundings tak
en at various places between the present
bridges nnd the town of Florence and good
rock bottom found in several suitable loca
tions.
Vor a month past , agents of this now com
pany have been quietly at work to got pos
session of all the property cast of Fifteenth
aud north of Chicago , which Is the proposed
sight of the now union depot. Options have
been secured on largo a portion ot this prop *
orty , but there arc a few owners who refuse
to sell nnd whoso property will doubtless bo
condemned.
The plan for entering the now union depot
will invoivo a viaduct over the tracks of the
Union Pacific , north of the shops.
The plans for the now union depot , which
will cost over 11,000,000 , Imvo boon made and
proposals boon asked on a largo part of the
contract work.
A full' description of these plans will bo
given in another issue.

In Court.
Jmlgo Dundy hbld a very lively session of
United States court In chambers yesterday
morning ,
lion , J , M. Wool worth was Ihcra nnd asked
permission to file an amended answer In the
case ol Patrick vs Davis.
' Have yon taken all the time you want In
which to tnako this requcstl" quietly In
quired his honor , nnd the question had a
ring of Irony Jo it that rather surprised Mr.
Woolworth.
"Yes , I think the request Is a roasoonblo
ono,11 ho replied. Whereupon the court ro-
tortcd !
"You might have made It seven or eight
ycnra ago. "
This controversy created a hearty laugh ,
\Vool\vorth made an effort to c nun go the
subject.
"If your honor please. " ho continued ,
"there is Btill another llttlo matter I would
like to call up. It has reference to an order
miido by you last pprlng for nn extension ot
time to Ilia nn amended answer in the No-
brttsKa and Iowa Insurance company's suit
ugnmsl Clark. "
"I thought , " observed the court , "that you
wcro going to refer to Woolworth against
Uoot. "
After that another nnd younger member of
the bar stepped up nnd wanted a whole lot of
orders granted which would clothe him witli
authority to have certain Judgments collected
and the irone.v divided among these holding
claim * ngntust it by an attorney nt St. Joe.
"Well I don't like the Idea , " Interrupted
the judge , of drawing cbocks In favor of law
yers , against other people's moncy.nnd won't
( to it. They h.ivo no moro right to divide ur >
a client's property limn any stranger would
havo. "
"How about lions" commenced the
young practitioner , when ho was abruptly
cut off with :
"Out with your lions ; wo have no such
things hero , and you ought to know it by
this tlmo. "
The young man subsided , disappeared nnd
William lUechcl , chief of the postoftlco
nuprulsers , took advantage of the moment to
have a whispcrod conversation with the
Judge. Everybody thought ho was going
to lllo his report , but they wcro dis
appointed. It was afterwards learned that ho
merely asked for instructions ns to how the
appraisers should act regarding certain
points under discussion.
C. 12. Vest nlao appeared nnd made his
final report ns receiver of the Republican
which In substance chows thnt ho 1ms saved
enough out of the institution together with
what the real estate Is worth to pay off tbo
indebtedness , which amounts to 3121,000.
"How much will bo loft for the Hounds
heirs nnd Cadet Taylor to divide } " was
asked of the receiver.
"That I can't toll , but nil that the building
and lot on which it stands can bo sold forever
over $ .15,000 will go to them. The property
is certainly worth considerably uioro than
that , "

If you arc going east , remember the

solid trains daily. All chair cars are

Our trains make close connections with
all eastern limited trains connecting

The > icw Adjutant General of tlio
IMattc Arrives.
Last night Lieutenant F. W. Roe , who
since the transfer of General Brcck to
Wushln gton has been acting adjutant gen
eral of the department of the Pintle , returned
to his staff position as aido-do-camu to the
commander. General Broolco.
Yesterday General Hrock's successor ,
Colonel M. V. Sheridan , arrived , and will
assume the duties of his now position to-day.
Ho came direct from Chicago , where , on
route , ho remained several days.
Ho registered ut the Poxum and at 11
o'clock , walked slowly up the hill to the de
partment headquarters to pay his respects to
General Hrooko.
At tlio corner of Sixteenth nnd Farnam
streets a motor went Hinging northward. It
attracted the colonel's attention , who turned
nround and gazed at n with u great deal of
interest.
He remarked that it was the first train of
the kind ho had seen on n grade and felt that
it , must bo a pleasant means of locomotion.
The colonel ban not been in Omaha , ex
cept to pass through at the depot , in about
ton years , and states that the changes that
have been made in that tlmo have , of course ,
been remarkable.
Colonel Sheridan In form and feature re
sembles tlio late lieutenant general of the
army. There is not , however , the same
massive , and closely knit frame , not the ac
tive , restless expression which characterized
the deceased. Some of the features , too , are
less pointed and the manner Is distinguished
uioro by repose. Nevertheless , no person
who know the general would fail to recog
nize the resemblance In the new adjutant
general of this department.
When the colonel reached Farnnm and
Seventeenth streets ho was met by Colonel
Terrell nnd Dr. Uachc , the former of whom
approached him with the remark : "Well ,
there's Mike. J3horidan , " at tho' same time
heartily shaking him by the hand. Dr. Biicuc ,
modicnl inspector of the department , was iu-
traduced by him.
The colonel then called on General Hrooko ,
whom ho found in his rooms at headquar
ters.

Colonel Sheridan entered the army as first
lieutenant of the Second Wisconsin infantry

The St. Joseph & Grand Island railroad
company and operated lines , and the Mis
souri Pacific railroad company nro "forninst"
the reduction of grain rates to Chicago from
points In this state , as suirgasted nnd recom
mended by the state board of transportation
qulto recently.
Replying to the letter of recommendation
sent out by the board , Edwin McXelll , gen
eral manager of the St. Joseph Sz Grand
Island , says :
"There are but eight stations on our branch
lines , vjz : Alain , Hun tiny , Ryan , Wiloox ,
Kounc , Mtndon , Norman nnd Ilolstola ,
where the rate on wheat exceeds SO cents per
1UU weight to Chicago , nnd wticro the rate
on corn , which is by far the most important
production , exceeds 25 cents per 100 weight
to the point stated. "
MuNolll also Bays that tha rnto of trans
portation barelv covers the cost , nnd there
fore ho earnestly protests against any further
reduction.
S. II. II. Clark , first vice president of the
Missouri Pacific , says in substance the nnmo
thing , adding , however , thnt any reduction
In rates would bo attended by an equal re
duction on the selling price at the point of
destination , and therefore nothing could bo
gained for tbo producer in the contemplated
reduction.
