8 TJTE OMAHA DAILY HE13SATU11DAY , OCTOBER 30 , 1807. RECORD-BREAKING BUSINESS Troigut Traffic Said to Bo the Hcavio.t Known in Yean. PROSPERITY ALONG THE UNION PACIFIC IlnllromlrrK KxplnliiVliy ( lie Illil for the Overliiml llonil Wan lii- creiiNetl li > - Hie H I Uiillou Committee. Several officials of the Union Pacific were testerduy talking ot the Incrcarc of $13- 000,000 In the upset price at the forthcoming talc of the road , as secured by the govern- mor.l through the threat to postpone the sale ( III after congress had assembled. One , ot them tald : "There Is no doubt'Im my mind that the payment of the full government claim , Involving this tremendous Increase In the bid promised by the reorganization com mittee , Is duo to the great amount of traflic handled during the last six montha. The published earnings of the Union Pacific each month for some time past have shown nemo wonderful 'Increases , and I believe the wil lingness of the reorganization committee to bid such a largo amount Is because of the IncrcJBu In business. When the offer to bid In the government' | ntcrc t In the. railway at $40,000,000 was made lost year every or * thought It was a liberal sum. H would iiavc been Impossible then to have secured any thing llko the full government claim. But the canrings since then have been Jumping up so that they have Just nnuraily pushed up the minimum amount the government would take for Its claim. " BEATS FORMER RECORDS. Thto opinion Is shircd by nearly all of these who nro conversant with the business of the Union Pacific. So far as Is known by the officials at present in charge of the operation of the Union Pacific It has never done such an Immense business before In Its history ao It IB doing today and as It lias been doing for the past half yoir. The divisions In Nebraska and Wyoming have been crowded with freight trains the greater part of the time , and ono day last week aU records for the number of freight trains handled across the etito of Nebraska wcro broken. At least , the officials now In charge of the road have no knowledge of any greater amount of tralllc handled on the "Overland Route" For tuveral days last week the number of freight cars handled across the plains of Nebraska was close to 4.000 a day. One day It took ninety-six lo comotives to handle the freight tralllc across thlsXbtato alone. The exict figures of the freight trains handled cin the day. that Is thought to hive broken all records are not known , 'but ' It If understood that the cars were over 1,000 in number. The record was such ns to make the tmflle officials ao happy that they are still smiling. The Increase In the freight tralllc on the Union Pacific has been noticeable In all classes of freight , but the eastbound shly- mcnts of live stock , especially sheep , have been the heaviest. Plenty of old corn has been moved out of the state and other grain to a lesser degree. The yellow fever plague in the south has also helped to boom the Union Pacific's freight business In changing the route of the Immense quantities of dried fruit shipped eastward 'rom California. Heretofore nearly all of this class of freight has gene east over the Southern Pacific , but the yellow fever quarantine at a number ol points on that line had the effect of diverting the traflic to the Union Pacific. Now that the fever In abating the shipments of the dried fruit do not seem to go back to th" Southern Pacific , but continue to multiply the number of freight oirs handled through hero via th3 Union Pacific. The shipments of dried fruit from California are not only numerous , but they are extremely profitable. The freight charges collected on one car recently delivered at a Nebraska point amounted to $025. TAXING THE EQUIPMENT. The statement ot General 'Manager ' Dlckln- lon In The 'Ileo Thursday that the freight traffic had been so heavy that the difficulties with the Oregon Short Line which existed for a time had had no appreciable effect In diminishing the tralllc tlfrough here gives n comprehensive view of the Union Paclflc't Immense business In a very few words. That the Union Pacific's business should continue to ho so heavy that the equipment was taxed , c\en when the line was cut off from two of Its best feeders , is nothing slnrt of remarkable. The manner In which old ro llig stcck Is bcl'B brougrt out and presjej Into serlvco is most surprising. Old box ears are being called out and ilttcd up as double-decked cars for handling sheep. Locomotives that have not been In use for a long time arc pulling heavy trains of freight. More train crewi nro employed 'between 0 null a and Cheyenne than were ever at work on the same part of the road since It was built. The train crews west of Cheyenne through to Evanston - ton arc being rapidly Increased , and all along the great ' "Overland Route" there Is the steady , busy hum of prosperity. What may bo slid ot the Union Pacific Is applicable to nearly all tranamlssourl rall- rcailn. The Increased business of the Union Pacific Is cited to refute the statement that It Is a weak railroad for which the govern ment Is getting moro than Its duu. Ot the passenger traffic It may bo said that It Is uniformly good , but It has nothing like kept pace with the marvelous Increase In freght. COHMSII IS XOT SAVIXO A WOltl ) . MniiitnliiK Sllcnee ivllli Itefereiiee to IliirncNt Money on lllilM. W. D. Corniah of St. Paul , the master ap pointed by Judge Sanborn of St. Paul to sell the Union Pacific railroad , continues to main tain a studied reticence regarding the sale and declines to state whether any depobit or deposits ot earnest money from Intentional bidders have yet been made with him. It Is gonerjlly believed , however , that he has at least the deposit ot the reorganization com mittee. Yesterday ho was told that General John C. Cow in , the government's represcira- tlvo In the foreclosure- proceedings , had slid that the check of the reorganization commit ted had been deposited with him. Ho said : "Where did Cowln got his Information ? " "I do not know , blr ; but Is It correct ? " was the reply. "Cowln. will have to prove It. I'll have to ECO him and ask him about It , " answered Judge Comhh , As Is Indicated by this conversation there are no boiuets | passing between tbo repre sentatives of the court and the represen tatives of the government In the foreclosure proceedings. The attaches of the ms tor's office are Indignant at the publicity given the errand of the government's representatives to St. Paul , and one of them recently asket a reporter of The Bee what It all amountei to. As same people bollcvo the proceedings amounted to an Increase of $13,000,000 In the bid ot the reorganization committee.

Messrs. Norrls & Love , the managers of ho Winter Carnival , are meeting with tlio nest gratifying success In the matter of obtaining attractions for the coming winter. The Interest In the voting contest Is deep- onlng as the number of ballots cast dally tliows. The adherents of the different candl- litcs arc working systematically for their different favorites. A voter In this contest Is not restricted to ono vote , but can vote as many coupons ss they wish. This statement Is made for the benefit of roine who are under the Im pression that they crn vote- but pncc. They OKI vote as many ballots as they have coupons pens and as often as they please. The manigers are endeavoring to arrange a series of races upon Ice bicycles , and will a'ao Introduce polo on the Ice , The liiKortonco of organizing clubs should not ibo overlooked. In order to make the Carnival the gmndcpt kind of a success our joung people should put their shoulders to the wheel and help all they can. Enthusiasm Is the greatest factor In the succceu of a oirntval , and nothing Is so conducive to en thusiasm as a number of clubs In uniform. The suits for both ladles and gentlemen arc Jaunty and pretty , whllo they are warmer and more comfortable than , the usual winter attire , The suits will bo on exhibition In a few days. It has been suggested and the suggestion Is a good ono , that the different department stores , wholesale- houses and miuufactorlcs orRinlzo clubs among tholr own employes. The parade of such clubs during the Carnival would be a most val uable advertisement for the firm they rep resent. It IB a remarkable fact that the return of unsold copies of The llco has almost If not entirely ceased , ctul a demand for extras has been created. There Is a strong movement among some of our prominent Scandinavian cltlzenu to make their participation In the Carnival ono of the prominent features , In addition to the skla , they will Introduce many of the national sports of the Norecland , The vote for Queen of the Carnival Is being dlscuccod upon the streets and has taken on the Importance almost of a fall election oimpalgn , Applications have been received by the inraagern for eomo very novel features for the who'.o teanon , ono of which la a motorcycle - cycle for use on the lee.
