Tel Uic * HJItor of The Hoc : In the recent discussion at a business men's association with reference to depart ment stores there scemeiV. jba no argument In advocacy for them , but.rather an excuse for their existence.5eomlnRly this has become a matter of national Importance , and In considering this question In Its broadest sense and In an unselfish' manner , we lose sight of the objections Wrtcpartmont stores In nny particular localJLtyfhut ; a question confronts us as to the cjfect upon our coun try If these business Irisfmitlons were generally orally distributed througlioVV the land. In the various agitation Mhlch may arise In different localities In opposition to stores of this character , the antagonism may seem ingly emanate from dcalcrJ In special lines of goods , who by opponents may be charged with being envious or Jealous. But when a' question becomes of paramount and vital Importance to the masses grievances of Individuals , are unimportant. Not until recent years have department stores existed and occasioned a disturbing thought which Is rapidly growing In this and In other countries. I understand that In Germany they are not allowed ; and In Franco an occupation tax Is charged which Is doubted on every special line , . Not until a toleration of an Industrial condition In this country which breeds millionaires and paupers existed , did department stores ap pear and fall In line and como In touch with the various combines , syndicates and trusts , which are warping and paralyzing the Indus tries of the nation by reducing the purchas ing power of the people. I mean to say that the pervading thought and effort , the craze , to reduce the cost of every commodity Is gradually reducing the ability nnd limit ing the opportunities of a necessary redun dant population , which Is growing In this country , to procure the necessities of life. In proportion as the products of labor nro depreciated , so In the same proportion Is the purchasing power of the people weakened. I am Informed that an English and Amer lean syndicate Is now being formed to com' ' bine all machinery of the two countries which manufacture any article made from wood , thus forming n trust for the world , the ostensible purpose being to reduce ex penses. What docs It mean to reduce ex penses ? It means to enrich the trust , to either cut the prices of labor or to dispose of a la.rge share of It , or both , thus Im poverishing many to cnrlrh a few. Now to Illustrate the effect of any monopoly In our midst , nnd from a stand point of local nnd personal experience , wo will note the effect of department stores which I understand carry under ono roof over twenty spoclal lines of goods. Now If ono store sells $200.000 of groceries a year , this one line would occupy nt least fifteen stores , and employ fifteen men of small capital , who would earh pay re munerative salaries to two moro men. Now if the twenty or more lines can led by de partment stores were divided nnd distrib uted throughout the business portions of the city , hundreds of now Idle men of small capital would go Into business , nnd thou sands of men who are now unemployed would bo occupied , nnd Instead of the cm- ployed working for a partial support , they would gel living wages , , as there would their bo competition , and' ' "competition Is the life of business. " Men would then do the work , whereas now Immature , frail ' girls nro employed nnd' the strong man Is Idle. People go to department stores to buy and not to ask prices , consequently there are great qpportunltlcs for large profits , except in cases where some man of limited means Is trying , to do business In some special line , t cri in that case the department store can , undersell and kill him off. i i Under a system of ai distribution of dif ferent lints there would 'bo competition , nnd profits at which goods were sola would bo moro uniform and on. an average goods might be jnirchasr.d at > about the same ag gregate cost. Even If expenses were a llttio more tlie burden would bo evenly borne by all , nnd by a method of dividing this mercantile pursult. glvlng all , a chance , hundreds of vacant stores would bo occu pied ; hundreds , of men , of. small , means , whooaio now 'eating up tjlelr l'6Ubstiiricc , .would engage In buslueps and thousands of Idle men would bs > employed at re munerative prices. Such conditions would give any city the appearance of thrift and prosperity In the eyes 'of strangers nnd visitors. The effect of department stores Is plainly shown In Chicago , revolutionizing property values by reason of hundreds of vacant stores. They are beginning to feel the same effect In Now York since the establishment of the Seigel , Cooper & Co. st9rc , which Is a world in Itself. People overlook In jurious conditions often times until they como In personal contact with such condi tions. The freedom of our Institutions and business methods should act so as not to do Injury to many and benefit a few ; then there would bo harmony , prosperity , honesty , truth and appreciation of country. When In the cast manufactories arc Idle and the morltots are loaded with goods and no purchasers , when people by the hundred thousand nro starving , nnd whan In the agri cultural country of the west and south they are burning corn for fuel and having on abundance of the products of the soil , plenty of beef , hogs and poultry , I believe the various monopolies of thli nation are in a measure responsible for the Incapacity of the people of this country to make the necessary exchanges for the relief of e.ich other. There Is something radically wrong In this condition of things. Individual econ omy Is wise , but when the monopolies of the country seek to shut out the opportunities of the people under n pretext to reduce ex penses and to make things cheaper , we have proof that such a system has brought dis aster upon the country , Inasmuch as it breeds distress and poverty. Open up all the business avenues to the people , oppose all monopolies and thereby Increase the chances of people to consume the product of labor , and then there will not bo so much of an overproduction as there Is today nn under consumption. Proper exchanges will be met. and nn occupied and provident people - plo will have the means to demand what Is needed and the abil ty to meet the demand. L. V. MORSE.

LINCOLN , Feb. 10. ( Special Telegram. ) All fear of radical railroad legislation at the present session of the legislature seems to have vanished , and the railroad lobby has so little to do that Colonel J. II. Ager finds tlmo hanging heavily on his hands. Mr. Ager has appeared before the house com- mltteo on railroads whenever nny bills affecting the corporations In which ho Is Interested have been up for consideration , nnd so far ho hai had tolerably geol suc cess In warding off any serious blow to the transportation Interests of the west. Up to the present time twelve bills di rectly affecting the railroads have been Introduced In the house , not counting two byJohn _ O. Yelrcr , which have not yet re turned from the printer. Representative D. C. Snydcr of Sherman county , the Nester of populism In the house , had two bills , ono prohibiting free passes to ovcrjbody , and the other compelling the Issuance of free passes to state officials and members of the legislature. Doth hnvo been put to sleep for the session by Indefinite postponement. Representative Shull of Nomaha county offered a bill slicing off $500 per annum from the salary of each of the three secretaries of the State Hoard of Transportation.

A remarknblo feat of engineering Is nearIng - Ing completion , and , beginning Thursdny- February 11 , the passenger entering Now York from the north , will rldo over the now drawbridge. Going south , at One Hundred and Forty-ninth street , the tracks of the Now York Central begin to rho gradually , and nt Ono Hundred and Thirty-fifth street they cross the Harlem river on the now four- track steel drawbridge , at nu elevation of twenty-four feet above high tide. This massive structure Is remarkable In being the first four-track drawbridge over constructed , and Is the largest bridge of the kind In tlio world. U Is 400 feet long and weighs 2,500 tons. The drawbridge Is fifty- eight feet nix Inches wldo from center to center of outside trusses , and Is carried on thrco very heavy trusses.

The plans for the construction of a larga Iron viaduct , to bo used jointly by the Union Pacific anil the I ) . & M. railroads , at tlio Intersection of their tracks and South Fourteenth street , to displace the two ( rail wooden structures which now carry the tracks of these railroads across the street , have Just been agreed upon by representa tives of the two railroad companies and approved by the city engineer. The work of building the viaduct will bo commenced as soon as the froit Is out of the ground , no that the piers may bo set In. The announcement that the Union Pacific would construct nn Iron viaduct over Four teenth street was made by The Hco eomo time ngo. Since then the Burlington ofll * data have decided to follow the example set by the Union Pacific and replace tholr \\oodon bridge with a substantial structure. Conferences have been held among the offi cials of both loads , the final ono being Tues day , at which General Solicitor Mnnder- son represented the H. & M , and General Solicitor Kelly and Chief Engineer Pogrom tlio Union Pacific. All the details of the building of tlio joint structure have been ( otnplcted and It Is expected that the work of building will bo commenced within the next sixty < lays , the viaduct to be completed by July 1.

Representative McGee of Antelope has pro ' posed'a law requiring connecting switches at all junction points. It has been placed on general file , whllo another bill with similar Intent is still In the hands of the railroad committee- . This latter bill was Introduced by Hull of Harlan , and glvea the State Board of Transportation specific power to order the construction of transfer or connecting switches. CAUSES NO APPREHENSION. There Is ono railroad bill which causes no llutter of apprehension in the breast of the Industrious Colonel Ager. It was Intro duced early In the session by Reprpsentatlve Eastman and provides foritin apptopriatlon bf ? 3SO,000 io aid ( n-tlie construction of what Is called the "Iowa , jLake Superior & Gulf railroad. " The railroad Is more pop'ularly referred to as the "Equatorial , Gulf fc'Aurora BorealU" system. The bill makes It the duty of the governor to appoint a "com mittee of control , " consisting of one man from each county , to sit ag members of the board of directors. Each of the ninety mem bers of this board of control are to receive not more tban flOO per month for their services , together with 10 cents for each mile traveled In performance of their duties. Strange as it may appear , there Is actually a lobby here to wdrk for the passage of the bill. The "lobby" Is a whiskered Individual with blue goggles , who makes his head quarters nt the principal hotels , and who puts In full time. Ills name is one of the mysteries of the session. Speaker Gaflln Introduced a bill which failed to meet with populor approval. It was designed to compel railroad companies to promptly furnish empty cars to shippers whenever demanded. The main provision of the bill , as far as It Interests the shipper , was found In the second section , which pro vided that when any party notifies a rail road company that he desires to ship ono or more full cars at any given date , the company must provide the cars within forty-eight hours after receiving formal no tice. A penalty of $1 per car- for each twenty-four hours , or fraction thereof , was fixed If the company failed to comply with the provision of the law. This bill re ceived Its quietus In the committee rooms and was indefinitely postponed. Mr. Ager appeared before the committee and In his argument against the bill stated that It might be accepted ns a busi ness proposition that there was nothing that caused a railroad manager moro worry or dlscomfoit than an empty car , on the prin ciple that an empty car was not an earning feature of railway operation. He stiled that it was always to the company's Interest to supply cars to shippers as promptly aa possible , but that sometimes , especially in a busy season , the rigid provisions of the law proposed by Speaker Gaflln might be difficult to meet. The committee Indefi nitely postponed the bill , with the under standing that some of Its features might be Included In a now bill under contemplation , which proposes to revise and amend all the laws fixing the powers and duties of the State Board of Transportation. THREE VOH THE RAILROADS. Representative Edflon Rich of Omaha has thrco bills In the hands of the railroad ! com mittee which are anxiously supported by the railroads themselves. One prohibits thn impeding or obstruction of the business of railroads. It Is aimed to relieve a lailroad company of many of the embarrftssmfcnts occasioned-by strikes among railway em ployes. Under Ita provisions , If two or more persons combine or conspire together to Impede by act or means of Intimidation the regular operation and conduct of the business of any railroad company , each of them shall bo liable to a fine of not less than { 20 nor more than $200 , and confined in the county Jail not less than twenty days nor moro than ninety days. The nocoml bill Is designed to prevent the ejitcrlng of railroad cars at night time. It alms a EC- rloua blow to tramps , who are accustomed to malco empty box cara tlielr regular places of residence while cnroute. The third till offered by Mr. Rich prohibits persons from climbing on railroad trains and cars while In motion. Its passage Is Intended to relieve the railroad company from any financial liability In the case of accident to persons who attempt to board trains In any other than the usual manner. Tlio twelfth railroad bill In the IIOUFQ was Introduced by Representative Mitchell of Sov/ard county. It requires railroad com panies to erect and maintain track scales at all points and stations where 200 cars of grain have been shipped In any ono year subsequent to five years ago. When a shipper orders n car from the railroad company to load v.'ltli any kind of grain or seed , it Is made the duty of the agent to weigh the empty ear and record the weight In a book to bo kept for tbo purpose. After the car U loaded It shall be again weighed and the weight recorded , and the agent U then re quired to deliver to the shipper a receipt or bill of lading fallowing the exact net weight contained In tbo car of grain or seed. Representative Yelser'u bills provide for a 2-cent paeeenger rate and tlio abolition of ( lie free pass. The sentto railroad committee has had little to do BO far this session , Several bills have been referred to It , all of minor Im portance. Ono provides that no company shall charge more thau 2 cents per mile far passengers , another prohibits free passes , and anothei makes all excursion tickets trans ferable. central and each of the two side trusses Is a clear space of twenty-six feet , which per mits the passage of two sets of double tracks. The floor Is corrugated , and the rails are boltetl to it on steel tlo plates. The trusses of tbo Drawbridge span are sixty-four feet high In the center and twenty-five feet high at each end. At the highest part of these trusses la situated the engine house , which contains two oscillating double-cylinder engines , which , turn tlie draw , and can be worked together or sepa rately , so that If one should break down at any tlmo the other can do the work. From , Ono Hundred and Thirty-eighth street south the four new tracks run over the steel viaduct to One Hundred and Tenth street , and th6nce by the stone viaduct toI "Ono Hundred and Sixth street , whore they strike the leyel of the present four-track line. The work of building this mnsslvo structure - ture , which Is here Illustrated , began Sep tember 1 , 1893 , ncl .lias continued without cessation until now , and will cost when completed considerably moro than J3.000.- 000. The completion of the new work will permit the opening of all cross streets un der the railway and so permit a perfectly free passage for street traffic. Hnllwny Note * nml 1'ornonnlx. Mrs. R. R.

The passenger1 department of the B. & 51. yesterday received a letter from John Dyke of Dyke , Blalne county , Okl. , that was full of praise for Nebraska.

The efficacy of a decree of divorce to suspend the operation of an ante-dating decree of a New Yoik court , carrying with It an allowance of alimony , la to bo tested In a case which was heard today In the supreme court of this district , Judge Truax presiding. In 1895 the superior court of New York granted to Mrs. Caroline Carpenter a decree of di vorce from Dr. Alfred C.

The Jury In the case of Baxter against City Marshal Klttrlcdgo of Bath for false arrest at the time of the big Bryan meeting at Hath lant October , brought In a verdict of 1 cent damages for Baxter. The jury was out two hours In finding the verdict. Baxter Is u member of the junior class at Bowdoln and wu arrested on a charge of disturbing the Bryan meeting , j taken advantage of. The B. & M , structure will be somewhat above the level of the Union Pacific portion as the tracks of that road are higher than those of the Union Pacific. The Union Pacific will occupy the greater portion of the viaduct as that road will put In eight tracKs , with room left for three additional ones. The B. & M. will at first put In but ono track , but will have room on Its portion of the structure for two more. | | Each company will stand Its proportionate | chare of the building cost. The expense of the Union Pacific will be much greater on account of Its greater number of tracks. . Its share will , it Is estimated , be in the I ' neighborhood of $50,000 , while the expense to the B. & M. company will not bo more than ; one-fifth of that amount. ' The plans of the engineers of both com panies have besn duly approved by the city engineer , and are now on file In the city : hall. The Union Pacific plans wore 'drawn I under the direction of Chief Engineer I Pegram , at the headquarters In this' city , 1 while those of the B. &M. wore drawn at the , office of Superintendent Calvcrt In Lincoln. The viaduct will cross Fourteenth street obliquely and will rest on plero set in tbo middle of the street. Fourteenth street Is 100 feet wide , but It will be narrowed to sixty-six feet , thirty-four being given up to the railroad companies. The general plans of the B. & M. viaduct will correspond with those of the Union Pacific. bMALL WIU2CIC AT VALPARAISO. Freight Train llrciikH nnil CoIlIiU-n H ItU ItHClf.
