"A big railroad system has been seeking an entrance into Om ilia and yet your people seem to have Had no Inkling of It , " remarked u railroad man who lias the lopntntion of being "on the Inside. " "Ordinarily Unit would bo rather singular , " ho continued , "but ,11m Hill is ns sly as a fox and ho seldom - dom makes n noise uutll bo is ready to Jump. " - * \ James Hill Is president of the Great North ern , n system of nboul 4,000 mlioithat lie hns created within n few yo.irs. When urged to unbosom himself the speaker out lined Iho project for a now line Into Omaha. Nol very long ngo Iho Sioux Cily .t North * orn mndensurvoy from Sioux City to Pa- pillion. The road now runs from Sioux City north for n Ulstnnco of ninety-seven miles" , connecting nt Gnrrotson with the Great Northern. It has nlso leased the I'aclllo Short Line , winch gives It u brldgo across the Missouri. "Now while the Sioux City .t Northern Is apparently an Independent road it Is s r to say that it is dominated by Hill , and ns T innttor of fad It Is being opor.itod In con nection with the Ornat Northern for through trains between Siou.x Cily anil Minneapolis. This maintenance of n separate organisation seems to bo n part ol Hill's method to mask his scheme uutll tie is ready to nut U Into execution. "Not only hns thnt survov boonmado * , but agents of the Sioux City & Northern linvo quietly sought nn entrance to Omuhn nnd made nn estimate of the cost of the right of way. Their figures aggregate about S.MH- ) , OOJ. Add to tbo right of wnv Iho cost of p'ni senger and frolght depots nnd other terminal facilities und you will see thnt an entrance to this city Involves an enormous outlay. M ho Great Northern Is strainingevorr nerve to complete Its line to Seattle ul Iho onrllost possible dnto , building from bolh directions at the rnto of thrco nillos n day. This Pa cific extension drew so hoavllv oh Its tnndi that the project for an Omaha line was tem porarily bold In abeyance. "Slnco then overtures have been made to tbo Missouri Pacillo to Join in the enterprise by extending Its line n pnrt of the dlslanco townra Sioux City. This sort of n deal would not onlv glvo the Greal Northern nn entrance Into Omaha , but would carry with it an Invnlunblo alliance. The ouo road has u great network of lines in the south nnd southwest and the other spreads ovei the north and northwest iti similar manner. At no other point would the two sj stems como into contact , mid there would bo no conlllctinc interests to prevent n strong friendly nllinneo. "I am Inclined to the opinion thnt this proposition is still under consideration by the Missouri Pacillc , but If it rojeetn the proposal the Nebraska Central will glvo the Great Northern th terminal facilities it seeks In Omalm "Thoro is every reason for thinking Hill wants to como into this torritorv , which would glvo his line agroatnmounto'f freight. The Great Northern would bo n big thing for Iho commercial interests of Omaha , because It would bring the benefits of low water rates. It has a very direct line from Sioux City to Dulutli , and from that point a line of Inko steamers is balng operated in coancc > lion witn it. Only the other dav n shipment of thirty-live carloads of nnlN'wns received nt Sioux City thnt came ironi Pitts , burg to Buffalo nnd thoncu by water to Du- luth. The Great Northern also lias a trulllu arrangement with the Canadian Pacillo which enables it lo run its cars over thnt road when it sees lit. "Tho Groat. Northern hns been brought to gether so rapidly that Omaha people haven very hazy idea or no Idea nt nil of the vnst system which is knocking nt their door for entrance. With Iho closing of the gap to Sioux City Omaha would liavo good llr.es by this system to Minneapolis nnd St. Paul , to Uuluth , to Manitoba , to North Dakota , and thence west across the conti nent. With the exception of the route to Minneapolis these lines would bo much moro direct than nny now offered thisscction. The S Great Northern has already como Into Una territory for business. The Nortnwestoni lines naturally refuse to exchange trnfllc , but the Union Pacific is friendly , ( uito n delega tion from Lincoln , for example , will go to Minneapolis over n route made up of these lines. It will bo carried to Sioux City ever the Union P icllic by way of Columbus , " Mlliraiil < i > Changes. The Milwaukee has a now time card which will go into effect today.
