Passenger travel In nnd out of Omaha a
present Is so heavy that nearly all of tin
lint's nro experiencing some difficulty In pro
riding the necessary equipment. During thi
last week there has been scarcely n da ;
tlmt the passenger departments of th <
Omaha roads have not been after the oper
ntlng departments to secure more cars. /
great number of the exposition visitors an
taking trips through various portions of tin
Burroundlng country after seeing the blf
Rhow , and the result Is that there Is a heavj
movement both In nnd out of the city. Mon
people arc-seen at the Tenth street depot !
now at midnight than during the afternoon ;
n year ago , nnd the afternoon crowds now
uro something without parallel.
Many of the lines have beau rorccd to rur
their principal trains In two or more sec'
tlons for several days , and some of UK
lines are making arrangements to place ad
ditional trains on their regular schedule !
till the close of the exposition. On nccoun
of the heavy travel to nnd from the west the
Burlington has Just decided to put on an-
ether train between Omaha and Lincoln. Ii
, makes Its first run September 1. It leaves
Lincoln at 1:30 : p. m. dally , arriving hero ni
3:15 : p. in. Returning It leaves Omaha at !
p. m. and arrives nt Lincoln at 6:15 : p. m
It Is designed to help look after travel fron
the Billings branch line nnd from points
nbout Lincoln. The train from Billings ar
rives nt Lincoln at 1 p. m. and the new
train pulls out for Omaha fifteen minute :
later.
TrcmeiidniiN I.OIIK Train.
On Wednesday afternoon the Burlington
took out of hero ono of the longest passcn-
Bor trains seen nbout hero lately. It was
in ado up of two locomotives and nineteen
cars , and oven then scats wcro at a pre
mium. For over n week the Union Pacific
Northwestern nnd Burlington have been
running trains of from fourteen to sixteen
cars each. The business of the Milwaukee
lioa Improved so that another regular Chi
cago-Omaha Blooper has been added lo Its
express. The Rock Island trains have been
running heavy , und some oxcurslousi to the
exposition that were contemplated have
had to bo postponed for awhllo owing to the
scarcity of passenger equipment. The oper
ating department of the Burlington has re-
qucBtcd the passenger department of that
road not to arrange any more big excursions
until It can secure more cars for use in and
out of Omaha. The Missouri Pacific Is nlsn
short on passencnr equipment , cars being
in demand for hauling troops homo from
St. Louts nnd moro being needed to bring
the people to the exposition.
With passenger travel ns heavy ns It has
been for the last few days railroaders are
wondering what It will bo when th ? lower
rates , effective from September 1 to No
vember 1 , become widely advertised. Most
of them think that It Is simply n question
of supplying cars enough to handle the
crowds , nnd the very officials who six
months ago laughed at the idea of their
equipment being tnxcd are Jumping around
the liveliest now to got hold of cara to
. carry the peoplo.
Coining from the Went.
The outlook for heavy travel on western
lines Into Omaha on account ol the celebra
tion of HoniQ state days thlsi month is ox-
cnedlnsly bright , General Passenger Agent
Lomax of the Union Pnclflo says ; "While
It Is difficult to tell lust what amount of
travel there will bo on any special occasion
until It Is close at hand , the reports so
far received Indicate that wo will handle
blKi crowds on Colorado , Utah and Wyoming
days at the exposition. Colorado day es
pecially Is going to bo big nnd wo are
pushing all three hard. "
Assistant General Passenger Agent Hutch
ison of the same road has Just returned
from n western trip. Ho devoted a great
deal of time to seeing that Wyoming day.
which will bo celebrated on September 19 ,
Is widely ndvcrtised. Ho says : "Wo have
exposition ndvcrtlBlng matter not only nt all
points along qur line In Wyoming , but have
pretty well covered all the stage routes.
Wo have sent bundles of exposition litera
ture over Into the mining camps , forty nnd
llfty miles back from the railroad , nnd have
no doubt nbout netting a big crowd from
Wyoming. I think we'll have enough
Wyoming people to fill n couple of special
trains In addition to the regular trains. "
Only n fair crowd Is anticipated by the
railroad men on Montana day , September C ,
but ono of the largest parties of the season
is confidently predicted from Colorado on
the special day of the Centennial state , Si'p-
| i tcmbe-r 9. Colorado has been thoroughly
covered by advertising matter by all lines ,
and the roads have agreed on a
round trip rate of $10.80. It
is also thought that Utah day at the expo
sition , September 14 , will bo recorded ns
ono of the successes of the series of state
days. It's a long trip from the land of
the Mormons , but the railroads have put
In a round trip rate of $25 , nnd the pnssen-
jer ; men out there are booming the occasion
in a lively manner.
Denver MIIII'N Idea.
Traveling Passenger Agent Cumloy of the
Denver & Rio Grande road Is In the city.
In speaking of the outlook for travel to the
exposition from the west ho says : "From
reports received by our company wo nro
going < o haul n good many people eastward
for Utah day nt the exposition. I think
there will bo n vury big attendance on this
occasion. But the big crowd from the webt
la RolnR to bo hero on Colorado day Sep

Travel on ( ircnt Northern ,
S. J. ElllBon , district passenger agent ol
the Great Northern railway nt Dos Molncs ,
la. , Is In the city to sws the exposition. He
considers the showing so far made as some
thing wonderful , and predicts an enormous
attendance during the remaining two
months. Ho bases his belief on the opin
ions ha has heard expressed In the terri
tory through which he travels.
In speaking of tha passenger traffic on
his own line Mr. Ellison says : "Travel on
the Great Northern ims been very good this
summer , but It has been moved nt such
ridiculously low rates that theo Is little
or no rcvenuo In It. With n rate of $10 from
the Missouri river to Portland It can hardly
bo expected that the passenger department
Is going to earn a mint of money. Of course
this Is the Bccond class rntc , but then a
large share of the business Is moving In
that class. Klondike business has about
dropped to nil , and BO for ns I can learn
the $10 rotes dIJ more to hurt It than to
help It. "
on t'nloii ' I'nclflo.
So far as Is now known only two changes
In the ofllclnl staff of the Union Pacific an
effective September 1. Ono of them Is It
the operating department and the other is
In the engineering department.
Gcorgo E. Baird , who Is well known here
ns ono of the most popular passenger ton-
ductora on the "Overland Route , " Is promoted
meted to the position of assistant superin
tendent In the Wyoming division. He will
have his headquarters at Evanston , Wyo.
and will report to Larry Malloy , superin
tendent of that division. Ho succeeds G
O'Neill , who has resigned from the service
of the company.
Chief Engineer Berry has decided to make
a change In the engineering department. He
has appointed A. K. Shurtleff to bo dlvlsior
engineer In charge of the lines In Kansas
to succeed Charles Manhart , who has alsc
decided to sever his connection with the
Union Pacific. Very llttlo Is known aboul
the appointee nmong the railroad men here ,
iirl PucIllc'M Share.
A notablu Illustration of the wisdom ol
putting In a rate of 1 cent per mile for ex
cursions to the exposition was furnished
yesterday In the passenger traffic handled
by the Missouri Pacific road. On account
of the reduced rate made for Kansas day
wt the exposition 2.C5G passengers were
brought In on the trains of that road Mono ,
or nbout three times the number that were
expected. The official figures for the trains
are ns follows : First No. 1 , 850 ; second No.
1 , 370 ; No. 361 , 861 ; first No. 9 , 430 ; .second
No. 0 , 115 ; total , 2Co6.
Corn Ncedn Haln.
Freight officials nnd other railroaders who
are watching the crop prospects with con
siderable interest say that some rain Is
needed In Nebraska and Kansas. No damage
to any of the crops has yet been reported ,
but the corn Is said to bo In real need of
rain. There have been no heavy rains
for sotno time. The weather report of thu
Burlington on Thursday morning showed
light rains at Imperial , Neb. ; Denver , Colo. ,
and Ouster , Wyo.
Itcdtictlon In Merchant ! Ine IlatcM.
CHICAGO , Sept. 1. The Great Northern
railroad Is preparing to reduce merchandise
rates from the head of the lakes to the
entire northern country , via the Fosston
line. The reductions will range * from 10
cents on first-class to 4 cents on fifth-class.
Identical rates are to be made by the North
ern Pacific. These reductions , It is said ,
will save the farmers of Minnesota and
North Dakota $1,500,000 annually.

The police have not developed a clew In
the robbery of the $3,000 express package
from one of the Pacific Express compan > 's

that the driver of the wagon , George Archi

have not developed a lead that might result
In the recovery of the money. They are
waiting on their oars , hoping that Archibald
will confess and show them where the
ironoy Is hidden.
Archibald , despite the severe "sweating"
given him by Captain Haze , still maintains
his original story and will admit r.othlng.
It Is Bald by the police that ho hopelessl/

LABOR DAY PROCLAMATKN
Mayor Call * oil the People to Ohcrv <

OMAHA , Sept. 1. To the Citizens o
Omaha : The statutes of the state of Nebraska
braska designate the first Monday in thi
month of September as Labor day and dlrec
that It bo deemed a public holiday. Thli
year Labor day comes on Monday , Scpteni

to bo followed In the afternoon by an appro
prlato program of addresses. Speakers o
national reputation have been secured , am
preparations already made Indicate that thli
will be the greatest Labor day celebratloi
ever held In our city.
The legislature ot our state , recognizing
the nobility of labor and the necessity foi
Its proper protection , sot apart this day 01
a holiday to belong peculiarly to the BO
called laboring classes. Unfortunately , how
ever , the legislature did not mnko thli
holiday a matter of right to employe ;
but left it to the generosity of the employer
I believe that these gentlemen In our cltj
who employ largo numbers of men will np-
preclato the value of this day to these Ir
their establishments and will bo convlncet
that this holiday will glvo their employes i
rest which will enable them to do bottei
work afterward and will bring about more
friendly relations between the employer am
the employed. I have been requested to asl
In this public way that as far as possible
all scores , shops , factories and other In
dustrial Institutions bo closed on next Mon
day , so that their employes may take pnrl
In the exercises o Labor day , also thai
residences , stores and factories of the cltj
be appropriately decorated In honor of tu !
occasion. I trust that this very reasonable
request will bo complied with by all anc
that the holiday will bo generally observed
by our citizens. Respectfully ,

KANSAS COMES IN FULL FORCE
ThounniulM of Happy JayhavrUerN Ilii <
Up for the Celehratlon at the
Sunshine , sunshades nnd sunflowers
seemed to satisfy the street strollers
yesterday. It was Kansas day at
the Transmlsslsslppl Exposition and
over 2,000 sons nnd daughters ol
the neighboring state were on hand to take
part in the celebration. They are Jayhawkers -
hawkers In name only nnd they say they
have no kick coming on anything. Good
crops this season , good weather for their
excursion and a good time at the exposition
have made them feel pretty happy.
The Missouri Pacific brought In the big-
Best crowd of Knnsans. Train No. 1 ar
rived at 6 n. m. yesterday with eight
cars well filled with delegations of the
visitors from the ndjolnlnc state. It was
too early In the day to stop nt the ex
position grounds , so the excursionists came
Into the Webster street station. They were
followed in nbout fifteen minutes by a spe
cial train from Wlnfield , Kan. , anil this
was filled with 400 excursionists from thai
town nnd Intermediate points In Kansas nnO
Nebraska. The special train was In charge
of E. E. Blockley , passenger agent of the
Missouri Pacific at Wichita , Kan. The
Rod ; Island's morning train from Kansas
had several additional coaches attached tc
It , and on account of the lieavy travel came
In about half an hour late. The Burling
ton road brought In about 300 Kansans on
Wednesday afternoon on train No. 2.
The mecca for all the folks from the Sun
flower state was the exposition grounds , and
they didn't lose much time In getting oul
there. Those who came In on the earlj
morning trains of the Missouri Pacific rail
road had a couple ot hours to spend dowr
town before the gates opened , and this time
was put In securing breakfast and looking
nbout town. The other Kansans put in
some time down town , stopped at the rail
road offices long enough to make sure ol
their return trains , and then made a boll
for the exposition grounds. By noon there
was scarcely any one of them to be seen
down town , although the principal business
streets wore the usual animated appearance -
anco and were crowded with visitors and
citizens nil day long.
SCENE IN THE POLICE COURT
llarher Mel.arcii Ciimen the IJccnac
IiiHncctor'n Clerk and IN Not
Molcxtcd hy Police.
Phil McLaren , an ex-pollco officer , iiow n
barber at Sixteenth nnd Leavcnworth
streets , caused a disgraceful scene In pollcs
court yesterday morning by his abuse and
nttcmpt to assault elderly John Mathlesen of
the license inspector's office , because Mr ,
Mathlesen Insisted upon hla taking out the
regular barbers' permit.
McLaren had paid the regular fco for
the permit but had refused to call at the
Inspector's office to get his permit. After
several notifications to McLaren to obey
the ordinance had been disregarded Mr ,
Mathlesen ordered McLaren's arrest. When
the barber appeared in police court thla
morning Mr. Mathlcscn was there to prose
cute him. As soon ns ho saw the elderly
Mathlesen McLaren began to swear nt him
and attempted 'to ' assault him , but was pre
vented. After the case had been disposed of
Mr. Mathlesen left the court room. McLaren
followed him lo the corner of Sixteenth and
Jackson streets In an effort to overtake
him.
Despite the fact that McLaren disturbed
the court by his ruffianly tactics and was
guilty of nn attempted assault nnd dis
turbance of the peace , ho was not arrested
although the court room was full of officers
and Chief of Detectives McGrath sat In his
office itwo feet from where the boisterous
McLaren attempted to assault Mathlesen.
Mr. Mathlesen Is nearly 65 years old and
Is delicately built while McLaren la a phys
ical giant about 30 years old.
