There will bo a cut of (2.45 In the rallroail
rates from hero to St. I'aul next week. The
tariffs of all the lines leading from Omaha
to thu Twin Cities call for a rate of $11.05 ,
Init the tariff sheets will bo Ignored , nml a
rate of $350 will be offered on Juno 2S , 20
and 30 and on July 1 and 2. The Burling
ton and the Nort hues tern announced the
cut vcetcrdiy. Neither the Hock Island nor
the Milwaukee rondo have jet received ad
vices of the cut , but expect to.
The Chicago Great Western , one of the
western linen that la acting the part ot a
frec-lanco In passenger rates , much to the
\\orrliiicnt of the lines that belong to the
Western Passenger association , la the line
that has Inaugurated the cut to St. Paul ,
and having act the pace , Is quite content to
SLO the roads belonging to the association
whipped Into line. The Chicago Qrcat Went ,
ern first announced the rate of $8 50 from
Kansas City to St. Paul. The competing
lines then announced a similar rate. In or
der , however , to put In such a rate from
Kansas City It was necessary that no higher
rate bo charge from Intermediate points
Hence the rate of $ S CO from here to St.
Paul that will bo applied next vvcck.
Although the Chicago Great Western Is
nut of thu association and association lines
overlook no opportunity to denounce It for
Its free-lance policy , passenger men In
Omaha generally concced that the Great
Western la justified In putting In the cut rate
to St. Paul next week. The reason for the
cut la that there will be then In effect such
extremely low tales to San rrancUco , Silt
I akc City , Denver , Colorado Springs and
Pueblo that travel is bound to be attracted
westward unless something Is done by the
north and south lines. It Is argued that In
the case of an undecided passenger , who
liana that It will ccst him ? 15 to go to St.
Paul and only $9 to go to a Colorado point ,
the chances arc greatly In favor of his going
westward Therefore the cut haa been made
In northbound rates In the hope of equal
izing next week's travel.
Notwithstanding the cut by the Omaha-
St. Paul and the Kansas Clty-St. Paul
lines , It is resonably certain that the great
bulk of next week's passenger traffic will be
westbound. It Is predicted by conservative
passenger men that next week's movement
will be the heaviest ever known between
the Missouri river and the Pacific coast
One serious problem Is already confronting ;
the- railroads that have contracts for numer
ous parties , namely : A lack of tourist
sleepers. The demand for these slcepei"
which , though rated as pecond-class , are well
adapted for summer travel. Is something un
precedented. As the rate In these sleepurs
Is only $5 from here to the coast , the lirst-
class Pullmans have hern practically over
looked , and all the roado are hustling for
second-class equipment. On the sleeper busi
ness the Pullman company has a veritable
monopoly on all business originating from
this teirltory , as there are no Wagner lined
running from here to the coast. A number
of solid Wagner trains will be scon In this
vicinity , however , coming from eastern lines
that do not patronize the Pullman cam
There will be five solid Wagner trains from
the territory of the Hoston & Albany pass
through here next week In addition to those
from New York state. These will bo small
compared with the many Pullman trains
that will also como from the cast. As there
will be ho opportunity to use Wagner cars
from hero west , there Is no possibility of
a cut In slceplng-car rates.

I'nrk ronitnliiNlim nttHI UeJcot the
CurtlHN Turnup Proposition.
The committee enl Improvements of the
Hoard of Park ComnilMlonerfl will brltiR In
an advcrtc report oQiJthe proposition of Cur-
tl w Turner to donate portions of the terri
tory between Farnairwand Dodge streets and
Thirty-first and Thirty ccond streets to the
city for park ptirpoceii The proposition la
hedged aboul with conditions that are not
regarded ns fnvoriibW' to Iho city. The
committee objects W the plan because the
Improvements which 'It requires Iho city to
make will require a larger expenditure than
is possible , and also because the terms ot
the proposition arc not clear with regard lethe
the property that la to be exempted from
taxation on account of future Improvements.
U provides that none of Mr Turner's prop
erty shall be taxed , but docs not specify the
property that ho owns.
The plan recommended by the committee ,
and which has been tuggested before. Is lo
convert Iho entire ravine , extending from
Hurt Blrect soulhwcst to the Haneeom pirk
boulevard , into A park. The comnrlllee con-
Unds , however , that action In this direction
should be pcMponcd until the adjacent
property owners manifest enough Interest In
the project to support It In lha proper man
ner. The committee report will suggest
that from the nature of the ground the
property Included In this strip can never be
used for anything except cheap dwelling ! ,
and to establish such a neighborhood would
detract from the value ot the adjoining resi
dence property. It Is held thai the ravine
should be condemned and the cost assessed
against the abutting property , and that the
Improvement of the ttrlp as a park would
odd sufficiently to the value of the lots ad
joining to more than compensate the owners
for the cost of condemnation.

The work of the Hoard of County Com
missioners sitting as a board of equalization
to cciuallro the annual assessment of real and
personal properly In Douglas county for tax
able property will clceo today , the board
having been In continuous session since June
IE , The tax mi will be closed , the footings
made and the annual tax levy made before
the board adjourns this evening.
Nothing definite can be learned about the
tolal assessment of taxable properly until
the footings nro made , but enough Is known
to warrant the arscrllon of jncmbcrs of the
board lhat the total valuation of all taxable
property , both real and personal , will .fill
about $760,000 below thfa valuation of last
year.
year.With this reduced valuation and the neces
sity for making a levy for the payment of the
Dougloa addition Judgments confronting
them , the commissioners are perplexed to
find n way out of the dilemma. The total
levy Is limited by law to 15 mills for county
purposes. The levy for lest year was H
mills and thl did not Include any levy for
the payment of the poor farm Judgments
The attorney representing a majority ot
these Judgments has notified the board that
If-a levy sutriclcnt to pay the Judgments held
by his clients Is not made , he will commence
mandamus proceedings to compel the board
to make the necessary levy. He advlaca thd
board that the levy for paying a Judgment
Is not Included In the statutory limitation of
15 mills , but may be made In any amount
suinclent to pay such Judgment. On the
other hand , the attorneys for some of the
rallway companies have notlllel the board
that If the statutory limit of 15 mills U ox
ccedcd , they will take the matter Into court
and endeavor to have the entire levy de
clarcd Illegal. This course has been pur
sued by the Elkhorn road hi several of tlio
counties In the western pirt of the state
and the supreme court has sustained the
position of the railroad.
AMOUNT OK THH JUDGMENTS.
The Judgments against the county on ac
count of the Douglas addition complication
amount to about ? 65,000 with Interest up to
July 1 , thin year. To raise this amount
would require a levy of about 3 5 mills. Tlilr >
does not Include the multitude of claims
which have been compromised by the board
and the holders of these will be compelled to
wait another year at least.
The levy for last year was divided amonp
the several funds in this way : Genciil
fund , 0 mills ; road , 2 ; bridge. 1 ; bond sink
Ing fund 17 ; soldiers' relief fund , 03
total , 14 mills. Some of the members have
suggested omitting the bond pinking fund
entirely , reducing the load fund to 1 mill
and levying the full limit , thereby giving
the Judgment fund 3.7 mills.
The commissioners took up the hearing
of complaints yesteiday and will con
tinue this work until some time thla
( .ftcrnoon. The footings will be made when
this hearing is closed.
A complaint has been filed with the boaul
which charges that the property of the
Omaha Water company Is assessed too low
and the hearing on thla complaint Is set
for this morning. Last year the re
turn made by the assessor fixed the valua
tion of the property of this corporation as
followsI'cisonal. . $100,810 ; realty , $101,800 ,
total , $205,010. The board raised the valu
ation of the personal property on the com
plaint of Lyman Richardson , making the
valuation of the personal property f29G,447 ,
thus increasing the total valuation to $401-
250 The retuin made by the assessor this
year llsto the personal property at $111,62' ,
being slightly higher than the return made
last year , but the realty Is returned at
only $97,455 , making the total valuation
$209,080 , an Increase In the total valuation ,
as compared with the assessor's return last
year of $3,470. The complaint filed this
year agulnst this valuation is made by Ly
man Richardson.
No complaint has been filed against any
other corporation. The returns made for
these corporations arc substantially the
same as the valuations returned last year.
