O FATTA DATT/S' SATTTTIDAV ot. i.sns. SHADOW OF STICKXEY SEES Chicago Great Western Looms Up Behind the East Omaha Deals. SEEKING IMMEDIATE ENTRANCE TO OMAHA \Voll roxtril Itnllriiiul Mm Point Out the I.ORliMil Hml nt I lie Move * tlint lluvc A I rend > Horn In ( lie ( iniiie. k The plans of the Omaha HrldRO and Terminal railway for bringing Its tracks fur ther down town continue to interest rail road men nnd n considerable number of jiroporty owners. Although rcpresoutatlveH of this company maintain that they know nothing of the prospective entrance of any other railroad those who are most familiar with railroad operations In Omaha smile and nflk what business would bring the terminal company rto\vn town If not that of a new. ' rullrotul ? "Without a railroad back of It the tranle ( nf the terminal company would not justify Its Kecking terminal facilities down town ; i the bUHlness of that company alone amounts ' to but little , " nald the traffic official o ! 0110 of the leading Iowa lines to a Dee reporter. Continuing ho said : "The Omaha Ilrldgo and Terminal undoubtedly dc- tires connections with the B. & M. I nnd with the Missouri I'aclflc , ns announced , but you may depend upon it that the company Is not acquiring lots from Chicago to Webster streets , between Tenth and Thirteenth , merely to secure con nections with these tuo railroads. In the ordinance Introduced In the city council va cating a number of streets nnd alleys the terminal company asks permission to lay ! no less than six tracks In one place. Do you Btipposo these nro merely wanted to carry | out the agreement of the Bridge nnd j Terminal comany that It would connect with the liurllngton ? You Just stand pat on the , titatcmcnt that another railroad Is seeking nu cntranco Into Omaha through the Omaha Ilrldgo nnd Terminal railway and develop ments within the next year will make the ( statement good. "My personal opinion Is that Itt \ the Chicago Great Western that is coming into Omaha over the ICaat Omaha bridge and Into the city over the tracks of the Drldgo and Terminal company. The recent visit of 1'rc'Hldent Stlckncy to Omaha and Council lilulfs wan for no other purpose than to look the ground over. I think that when the Illinois Central comes into Omaha it will nter ncrosj the Union Pacific bridge be 1 cause Mr. Harriman is the big man In both companlcd , c\cn the presidents of the two 1 lines reporting to him. Ills activity In the affairs of both companies Is sufficient to as- r.uro that the Interests of both will be conJointly - Jointly handled wherever possible. " CltOIVUS AUK COIMi DOTH WAYS. of Tmvol Meet nt the IH'itott During the DII y. Immense crowds thronged the depots again yesterday morning , but most at the travel I , ' was bound In n different direction from that I of the past few days. It was very largely composed of returning lowans and mem bers of the Modern Woodmen of America. The homeward hound strangers commenced moving toward the depots at 7 o'clock , and between that hour nnd 10 o'clock several thousand had loft the city. All of tbo out going morning trains were crowded , nnd preparations nro being made to run a num ber of the afternoon trains out of the city Jn two nnd in three sections each. The { Missouri Pncinc took n great majority of ills excursionists back on Thursday even ing , running out no less than five specials besides the regular trains during tbo oven- Ing. Ing.Tho The Incoming trains on Friday morning were well filled and many of the trains had pevornl extra cars attached , but Uho arrivals Boomed small In number compared with the itnmonco throngs of the two previous days. The Port Arthur route handled nn excur sion from Qulncy , 111. , on n special nnd one regular train , but they were flvo hours late in arriving here. The engine of Burtlng- ton train No. 5 broke down Juat casd of Plattsmouth this morning and ns a result the express from the east was over two liours late. An extra train was made up Jioro nnd Bent ) westward with the returning oxcuratoiilsts who live nlong the B. & M. lines. CJIml of the Chance to Ilrcnthr. The railroad men , especially the depot at taches and the city ticket men , nre glad to Got a little rest. The let-up In passenger traffic today brings ( he first breathing upoll they have had for several days. The rush of. travel Into Omaha on Wednesday and Thursday of this week was unprecedented. During the thirty hours expiring on Thurs day morning at 10 o'clock the Northwestern system brought into the city 10.031 persona , nnd other lines did proportionately well. This period has never been equaled for heavy passenger travel In the history of the city , llallroad officials , however , look for frequent repetition of It bet , \rcn now and November 1. General Passenger A enl Francis of the I ) . & M. says : "All signs point toward nn Immense attendance nt the exposition from now on. I have no doubt that over 100.000 will bo on the grounds to greet President McKlnley when ho appears here. Wo nro very well satisfied with the amount of travel during the loot few days. 1 don't &eo how wo could help being EO , for all of our regular nnd a number of special trains wcro crowded long before they reached Omaha. Wo have a pretty big supply of coaches , but wo ran short nnd had to borrow a number from tbo Denver & Illo Grande to carry all the people bound to the exposition. " "You can get an Idea of how travel is on our line when a number of our station agents telegraph us that they nro out of tickets , " remarked Assistant General Passenger Autnt Hufch.eon of the tnlon Pacific. "That's n thing that don't very often happen , ! cltlwr. Several of the.agents Eold all of their tickets , and when they sent up to the next station to borrow some blank forms they found they could not secure the loan because the other agents WCTO nlio short on tickets. " i < ossiniiiTiis or' sotTiinit.TIIAIIII I'rcnlilcnt Fifth of the Illlnnln Central oil the I'll I n re. Apropos Iho local Interest now displayed In the Illinois Central railroad , which is looked upon us n probable Omaha road In the near future , the following excerpts from a let ter of President Stuyvotant ri h to the editor of the New Orleans Times-Democrat , on the present opportunities offered for the dc\clop. ment of Latin-American and Asiatic trade , nre worthy of note : The 30,000,000 of people living In the ten South American republics buy goods fiom other countries to tuo value of $370.000.000 annually , of which we soil them only J33,00f > ,000. The five Central American states , with n population of 3tiOO,000 , tnko foreign goods to the amount of $23,000,000 annually , of which wo sell them only $5,320,000. Mexico ice , our nearest neighbor , with rail connec tions at several plaetB on our border , with u population of 13,000,000 , buys abroad to the extent of $42,000,000 , but wo foil its people ple nnly $21,000,000. The West Indies , not Including Cuba or Porto ] Hlco , buy $ I j,000,000 worth of goods In foreign countries , of which we provide $15,000,000. ' The ntartllng fact Is that wo buy yearly from j the South Amer'can countries $67OuO- 000 ( moro than thc-y buy from us ; In other words , they sell us their products and with our money make purchases in Europe. This Is not flattering to our comraciclal ability , particularly as it has been demonstrated and loudly proclaimed that wo sell our goods as chc.ipi.x as does any other country. There may bp no sentiment In business , but It evidently takes moro than nn equal j ization of trices to divert commerce from Ita long established course. We must manu facture goods to meet the needs and suit the tastes of the people , establish agencies or sample ( houseo whcro the goods can bo seen , nnd i extend credits such ns the South Amer ican I merchant has been accustomed to re- rclvo ' from the European dealer , before wo can tanko much headway In that field. The rapidly changing conditions In Cuba and Porto Illco offer n field for nn Increased trade of no small proportions. The abolition of the discriminating nnd prohibitive Span ish tariff will , no doubt , cnablo our people to sell their wares freely In those coun tries. 1 lie Jecept trip of the Oregon from Cali fornia , nround Capo Horn to Cuban waters , nnd the anxiety of the nation for Its safety , has awak'ened n now Interest In the Nlca- raguan canal. The opening of this waterway would not doi'bt glvo a great Impetus to our commerce with the west coast of South America , ns well as to China , British India nnd Japan countries which offer untold pos sibilities for the future of our manufactures. Japan is already taking largely of our raw- cotton. It will also facilitate the carriage to nnd fro i the various countries , compris ing Ocranlca , which at'f no small consumers of goods. Wo sold them $22,000,000 last year , nnd purchased from them nearly $27,000,000. The Hawaiian and Philippine Islands fur nished their quota of this interchange. T'ae Mississippi basin is capable of produc Ing all the articles that these foreign coun tries require or will tnko from the United States. Tbo Illinois Central system of railroads runs through the heart of this great agri cultural nnd manufacturing region. It stretches from the sugar , cotton and lumber regions of Louisiana nnd Mississippi to the grain nnd coal fields of Illinois and Iowa and makes the necessary exchange of com modities between the states. It binds the commercial centers of the "Middle West' with these of the south nnd transfers the varying products of each to the other. I collects , In the vust territory reached by Its lines , the wares nnd merchandise traf ficked In by the merchants of Now Orleans and lays them at her door. In like man ner It distributes throughout the couutry the stores of merchandise shipped by tin Now Orleans merchants into the interior. The company has expanded her rullroai' system from 2,550 miles ten years ago to 4,015 miles nt present. From 4,000,000 ton : of freight carried then It now carries ovc : 14,000.000 tons. In the same time the num ber of passengers carried yearly has grown from 0,000,000 to 14,700,000. The locotnotlvr pnglnes have increased some 600 In numbe : nnd by over 1,500,000 tons in hauling capac ity. Its freight cars have Increased ovc : 20.000 and their capacity by fully 380 pc cent.

FOUR BOYS OUT ON A BENDER Intoxicated on Stnlo llrrr llronk Into it nil Hull u Illcyvlc Store.

Little Bernard O'Brlon , who had heard about the "long and short" man , suggested that they rob a street car , but the others worn unwilling , because they had no fire arms. It was then suggested by Clmrlla Harvey that they go Into the saloon nt Six teenth and Davenport etrects and hold tlio bartcmlur up for a keg of beer. This sug gestion was also cast aside. Fitfully Arthur Tinker proposed that they enter the store of the Omaha Illcyclo company , at Sixteenth and Chicago streets , and the proposition car ried. Bernard O'Brien was selected to en ter the store. This ho did by breaking ono of the front windows. He handed out three bicycles to his companions , and as nil his companions could ride , they mounted the wheels and rode away , leaving O'Drlcn behind. Out of revenge because of their abandonment of him ho Informed an officer nnd the boys were placed under ar rest. The wheels wcro recovered.

Gcorgo Green , a teamster , committed n criminal assault ) on 11-year-old Kmlly McIntyre - Intyro of Thirty-fourth nnd Sahlcr streets Thursday. Green Intimidated the child , It Is alleged , with a knife nnd threatened to cut her throat If she resisted him. After fho assault Green fled and several officers nro looking for him. The assault was committed during the nb- senco of the child's parents Everything points to the fact that Green had planned the act. Ho had been to the Mclntyro house an hour or so before the assault ! and had learned that Mclntyro was soon to leave. Not over ten minutes after her father left the child said Green drove up to the house. She was alone with her two smaller sisters. She says Green dragged her by the hair Into an adjoining room. All this act she Bays the small children began crying nnd screaming. Green locked her In the room and then went Into the front room , whcro the children were , nnd after telling them ho would cut their throat's If they did not remain quiet , locked them In nnd entered the room where she was and overrowercd her. When her father returned she told him ot the crime nnd ho took a shotgun and began a search for Green , but could not ) find him. Early yesterday morning he swore out a warrant for Green's arrest. Green Is 23 years old. For the last year he and several men have been camped In a grove near Mnplo and Twenty-ninth streets. Ilnckleir * Ariilea Salve. THE BEST SALVE In the world for Cuts.
