the fight of the session by presenting n reso
" lution asking Iowa congressmen to favor tin
"restoration of the MeKlnley duties on all
agricultural products , besides a specific duty
on hides. The democrats nnd several re
publicans protested against taking politics
Into the society. President Evans declared
It was not politics ; Just business. A motion
to lay on the table failed and the resolutions
were adopted , 25 to 17 , after a hard fight ,
many leaving the hall to avoid voting.

of the resolution , with the remark that It
was not politics , but Just business , Intro

P. 0. Lclnnil , assistant general freight
agent of the Missouri , Kntisns & Texas rail
way sjBtcin , was In Omaha Tuesday. The
object of his conferences with the tallroail
men hero was to take up some slack In the
traffic arrangements between hero and Gal-
vcston , and other gulf ports. The aftermath
of his vlall will appear within the next fort
night In the form of much closer relations
between the Nebraska and Iowa railroads
and the "Katy" for the shipment of grain
to the ports of the Oulf of Mexico Instead
of to those on the Atlantic seaboard. That
was the opinion of freight men In Omaha
yesterday.
The Uurtinglon has already entered Into a
through tralllc agreement with the "Katy"
for the shipment of grain to Galvcston , turnIng -
Ing It over to the southern road at Hannibal.
The HI It horn road has announced that In the
future It will carry , all grains destined for
the southern ports directly to Superior , this
stale , and that there It will bo promptly
transferred to the Santa I'o road , Insuring
through service and rapid transit. Mr. Drew
found more dlfllculty in making through
tralllc amusements with the Iowa lines.
It Is apparent that the Milwaukee , thu
Wabash or any other railroad would prefer
to get a long eastern haul on grain from
Missouri river points rather than take It
from Iowa points to Kansas City. On the
short haul theao roads get but from 5 to 8
cents out of It , while they get more than
double that amount of freight charges by
carrying the grain to Chicago. It 'Is thought ,
however , that before long these roads will
be forced to make arrangements with the
southern roads.
The grain shipments east of Chicago last
week again showed a noticeable decrease
from the shipments of the week before , and
the Chicago papers ore dally calling upon
the eastern lines to como down In their tariffs
If they want to save the grain business for
the eastern ports. At the aamo time the
southern movement of grain Increased.
Total slui n.i'nts of flour , grain and pro
visions from Chicago through to Atlantic
seaboard points and Tor export by the ten
eastbound rocds last week amounted to 00,490
tons , against fiS.lOO tons for the week pre
vious and (19.C59 ( tons for the corresponding
week lust year. Flour shipments last week
were 7.114 tons , against 11,112 tons last
year ; grain , 34,269 tend , against C0.220 tons ;
provisions , 9,113 tens , against 8,227 tons.
It has been extensively reported during
the past few weeks that the ralroad yards
at GalvcGton were full of heated grain not
worth the freight charges. One report last
week had It that there were 2,000 cars of
hratcd and spoiled corni on the tracks.
Third Vlco President Paul Morton of the
Snntn I'o has taken the matter up. and after
Investigating It has declared there Is no
truth in the reports. He announces that
his representative and Grain Inspector Web
ster found that there was not ono bushel
of heated grain OIL track or In elevators
In Galvcaton , and but one ear had been re
ceived since December 1. That car had been
sold on the track. Since January 1 the In
spection shows No. 2 and 3 running over
ns per cent , and but 2 per cent of No. 4
being condemned on Inspection.
J. U. Thatcher , a wholesale grain dealer
of Omaha , has received the following letter ,
which appears to t-upport the statement
that grain Is not being heated and spoiled
In the Galveston railroad yards :
"Edward Webster , the chief Inspector , Is
sued the following statement' , 'taken from his
records on January a. During the month of
November , > 1S9G , there was Inspected In :
S3S cars of No. 2 corn , 01 per cent ; BOG cars
of No. 3 corn , 55 per cent ; 17 cars of No. 4
corn , 1.C3 per cent ; G rars , no grade , .7-10
per cent. Total number of cars , 1,367.
Three of these "no grade" cars had been
In a wreck and abandoned by the owners
and turned over to the railroad company.
In December there was Inspected In :
133 cars of No. 2 corn , CO per cent ; 3S4
cars of No. 3 corn , 45 per cent ; 33 cars of No.
4 corn , 3 per cent ; 1 car , no grade , .01 per
cent. Total number bf cars , 851. From
January 1 to 9 , both Inclusive , there was
Inspected In : 304 cars of No. 2 corn , 32
per cent ; 604 cars of No. 3 corn , 63 per cent ;
42 cars of No. 4 corn , 4 % per cent. Total
number of cars , 950.

Ticket Ollloc Mutter.
The Omaha passenger agents who wcro In
attendance upon the meetings of the West
ern Parsenger association In Chicago re
turned homo yesterday. All the buslnccs
scheduled for the association meeting did
not como up , and the most Interesting mat
ters to the public were deferred to an ad
journed meeting that will bo called some
tlmo next week by Chairman Caldwcll.
Nothing but routine association business was
transacted.
Tr > u proposition to abolish the tip-town
ticket olllces In Council Hluffs and the
Union avenue ticket olllces In Kansas City
was railroaded to the program for the- next
meeting. It Is generally conceded that the
movement , at least so tar as Council II luffs
Is concerned , will bo defeated.
It was expected that reduced excursion
rates for the annual meetings of a number
of national societies would ho made , but this
matter was also postponed until the next
meeting.
Concerning the rates for the big meeting
of the Christian Endcavorers In San Fran-
j.'sco next summer there Is already trouble
among the western passenger men. No
definite arrangements have been made as to
rates , but It Is charged that eomo of the
transcontinental roads have already con
tracted for lurg ° parlies on the basis of a
round trip rate of $50 between Chicago and
San Francisco. There Is some talk among
the roads of the ap/joclatlon of taking action
( hat will compel the society to hold Us meetIng -
Ing elsewhere and thus punish the roads
that havu made the contracts , The matter
will bo probed very carefully before any
action la taken , but there Is already much
strong feeling over It.

WASHINGTON , Jan. 13. Senator dear has
received a letter from E , Bllery Anderson ,
acting for the receivers of the Union Pa
cific Railroad company , giving detailed In
formation In regard to the Indebtedness of
tlo Union Pacific , which , nt Senator Gear's
renucMt was ordered printed by the senate
today , Mr , Anderson says that the obliga
tions of the company were Incurred prior to
1691 , principally In thu construction of
branch lines , the Union Pacific receiving
stocks and bonds In return for the old fur-
nliiued by the parent company. Ho taye the
I
stock of these companies ( bus lioM amount
to JSZ.fllC.SOS , but that of these the only
which have any substantial value IM tdo
Montana Hallway compnny , the Occidental
& Oriental SleamMilp company , the Oregon
Short l.lnc Rollwny company and thu Pacific
KxnrcRB company. Referring to the bonds
held he- says their value depends largely
upon the Julesburg cut-off In Colorado , and
that the hostile action by the Union Pnclllc
against the Denver & Oulf road might vcty
largely rcduco this asset.

MONTRHAL , Jan. 13. For several < l.iy
past the Canadian Pacific railway olllehlc
have been trying to locate S. V. Nymm who
bought a ticket on November 10 , from Min
neapolis to New York , but who , while on his
way cast , was missed shortly after naming
St. Martin Junction. His luggage wasi |
brought to Montreal , and after waiting two
weeks for the passenger to turn up. his vallso
was opened , which revealed the fact that ho
had bought a ticket for Hamburg.
The Grand Trunk ofllclals have a similar
case. On November 1 , a man , giving the
name of Peter Nanacn , was transferred from
the Canadian Pacific railway to the Grand
Trunk. HP nleo held a ticket from Minne
apolis to New York , and was cnrouto to
Germany , but owing to his eccentric con
duct , was put In Jail for eUht dajs. Ho left
a silver watch , $45 In cash and a certified
check with the police and a vallso and box
with the Grand" Trunk authorities , nil of
which remain uncalled for.

at the Palmer house today. President A. W.
Johnson called the meeting to order. It
wns the prelude to a determined light which
will be made on carload rating with the
Central Freight association. The latter will
conclude a two da > s' session today , and. If
favorable action Is not taken by the freight
men , the association threatens to obtain
vengeance. The special complaint Is that the
freight apsoclatlon giants carload rating to
western shippers of dairy products , but docs
not extend the same courtwy to eastern men.

Whether the suits will bo concluded Is
another matter. It Is almost certain that
when the Intention of the government Is
