instances of buslness-liko marriages i
the annals of contemporary royalty.
More than two decades ago the prcser

OF 1'UijhMAN MONOPOLY
The Radical Move of the C. , M. & St
1'aul to Mannzo Its Own Slocpcrx.
Local railway oftlclals have a topic for con
vcrsation in the action of the Chicago , St
Paul & Milwaukee company , announced ex
cluslvely in yesterday morning's BEE , 11
assuming the management of the Pullmai
sleepers on that company's lines.
The Milwaukee is the llrst of the westerr
roads to undertake the management of it ;
own sleepers , nnd railroad men hero hole
varying opinions as to the wisdom of thi
movement.
Tno innovation makes public the terms o
agreements between the sleeping car com
panics and the railroads , that nro but littli
understood by the traveling public.
In the case of the Milwaukee , the company
owned u three-fourth1 } interest in the Pull
mans operated on its line , Pullman owntaf
the other one-fourth. The cars were oper
atcd by the Pullman company nnd thi
prollta were divided between the railway
company nnd tno sleeping car magnate
This plan is In vojjuo on several of the road :
but in most instances the Pullman compau ;
owns and operates its cara oa the vuriou1
lines and charges the railroad company i
mllesgo and makes a very meagre division o
the net profits. This arrangement Is undo :
a contract plan and all of the earlier Pullmai
contracts were made for a period of twentv
five years , and most of them are still ii
force and will bo for some years.
"Tne Milwaukee won't inako a go of it , . '
said a well known passenger man In speaking
of the matter. "It has been tried by compa
nles Just as big and powerful as the Mllwau
keo and none ot them have been successful
The Baltimore and Ohio tried It for sovera
years and then gave up the plan. Tno Wis
cousin Central anil then the Illinois Centra
took a hand at running thelrown sleepers
but gave it npas a bad job. Every compani
that has tried it has lost money. The troubli
seems to bo In the inability of the nillroat
companies to proporlv manage this branch ol
the business. Pullman has the busincs :
down to o science nnd every car run under hi :
management is a money-maker but there i :
always a Ionic as soon as a railroad , company
attempts the management. Every railroaJ
envies the sleeping-car companies , theii
profits , that nro apparently so easily nm
surely corned , but a railroad company has i
whlto elephant on Its handOwhcnovor 1' '
attempts the management of this branch o
the service. " - >
A good deal ot Interest will attach to th <
Milwaukee's experiment and if It provea sue
cessfnl other roads may adopt the phin. Tin
Union Pacific has a contract with the PuH
man comuany that will not expire for livi
years. Tha Northwestern patronizes thi
Wngner , while the Burlington nnd Ilocl
Island are patrons of Pullman under con
tracts that will hold good until 1SOJ.

Second Nebraska district.
McKcighnn Is tall and slender , with promi
nent check bones , share deep-sot eyes , a
stubby mustache of dnrlc auburn hair , and
wears n suit of tailor "toado clothes that fit
only In places.
A reporter for Tun BUR who asked Mr ,
Mclvelglmn for an expression of his views on
the result of the recent land sltdo , met will
a chilling reception at first.
"I have nothing to say , " said Mr ,
McKoIglmn , "on the fight that has Just closec
and nothing of tha future results of the
fight. One of the papers lu this city did nol
ngreo with my views during the cam
palgn and I don't care to Ix
quoted by It now and have nothing tc
say. "
Thenaf , ter a short pause , the congressman-
elect proceeded to say & lot of things , and
this was ono of thorn :
" 1 am not a democrat , I want that under
stood. 1 never was a democrat. Some o
the democrats have seen lit to cnthuso ovoi
ray election ana claim It as their victory , bir
that is their affair and not mine. I have nl

I never was in a caucus and never attended c
convention. "
Questioned as to the probability of a contest
test- being made , by the alliance on the elcc
tion of a governor , Mr. McKclghan. said : "J
don't ' know anything nbout that. I onlj
known that I am in favor , personally , of i
fair count , and that is all any mat
should want. If It had required thi
stealing of ono vote for mo to beat Mr , Hur
Ian for congress I would not have tried U
beat him In that way. "
When questioned as to his opinion of the
future of the alliance and its relations with
the existing parties , Mr. MeKcighau an
swcred :
' The alliance is growing in numbers ovorj

its strength. It Is growing In this stnto and
every wliero else and will grow until the prliv

and its demands complied with. "
A gentleman from Lincoln named Balcer

ELECTRICITY ON A TEAK.
A Broken Food Wire En livens MCI
and Anlinnls oit llurney Street.
Considerable stir -was occasioned at thi
corner of Tenth and ifunwin streets yesterda ;
by tha breaking of oua of the inductioi
wires stretched over tho-motor trolley wire ,
by the telephone company to protect thei
wires.
The break was occasioned by the slippln ;
of a trollov , which sprang up and struck thi
wire , tearing It from Its fastenings
Tha wire-fell across the trolley wires , am
then the fun began. The dangling end
dropped to the rails below , and every contact
was followed by a seric < oC sharp reports nni
brilliunt Hashes of bluish flame. An imiuisi
tivo Newfoundland dog , which Was nttractci
to the spot by the unusual scene , trotted U ]
and Btcppcd on the wiro. Ho strugglei
bravely but painfully for full ;
ten seconds bcforo ho could le
go , ana then ho escorted i
couple of bushels of yelps around the cornoi
with seeming ze-st and unparalleled alacrity
Ono of tno Consolidated Oil company1 !
wazons was driven by and ono of the horse ;
stepped on the wire. Ho immediately pro
ccedod to indulge in a series of gymnastic ov
olutlons that astonished thodriverand hlghl ;
edllicd the crowd of spectators.
After this demonstration , the police kep
all teams at a respectful distance from th <
spot.Tno
Tno motors could not pass , and four o
them wore blocked there before thy troubl *
could bo remedied.
The inotormen and , conductors did thcii
best to keep the swinging wiio off the rails
and were fairly successful. Ono or two o :
tho-n received slight shocks , and others hui
their gloved hands burned , the wire being a
time * almost at a white heat.
The break was finally repaired by twi
Western Union linemen who happened along
and fastened the broken wire to a tclephom
pole.Tno
Tno street railway company's offlco wa
apprised of the break , by telephone , but tn <
power was not shut off until after the troublesome
blosomo line was out of the way. Nooiu

witnessed by several hundred psoplo.
How Was He Injured ?
Conductor Erickson of the Hanscom parl
and North Twenty-fourth street motor line
was seriously injured yesterday morning , bu
just how no one seems know.
The train had loft the south and had gen

Savnuo's Condition.
There will bo a feeling of relief in Omaha
and throughout the state when .it Is known
that , as the result of a severe , but successful
surgical operation , Judge Savage was re
ported last evening ns greatly improved with
good chances for his ultimate recovery , The
operation performed , by Dr. Bryson of St.
Louis , assisted by Dr. J. B. Summers , jr. ,
and Dr. Bridges of this city was over nn
hour and a half In duration , but was very
satisfactory In results. Judge Savage rallied
well from its effects and was at last reports
resting quietly. The surgeons express the
belie f t hut the chances for the permanent re
covery of the Judge are much more than oven ,
although convalescence .will bo necessarily
Iciig and tedious.
