A flat reduction of C cents per 100 pounds
Ion wheat anil of Z cents per 100 pounds on
fcorn on freight rates cnBtwnrd from nil
' points In Nebraska may bo expected within
a few days. The cut IB necessary to mcot
the southern competition of the Missouri
I'aciflo railroad. The freight officials of
Nebraska and. Ion a lines have had a couple
of meetings on the ( subject hero during the
last few days , lint have not yet come to any
agreement. According to tlie majority ,
however , the final result Is a foregone con
clusion.
The Missouri Pacific announced the re
duction n few days ago to become effective
October 1. It did no to meet the competi
tion of the Santa Fe railroad , -tthlcli gets
Into the Nebraska territory by way of Su
perior , Neb. The freight ofllclals of the
Santa Fo nay that they were forced lo make
( ho cut because of the demoralizes ! condition
of freight rates out ol Kansas City. They
have made the cut In the liopo of speedily
eecurlne a restoration of rates. The reduc
tion Is not meant to contlnuo throughout
the Boason , but Is merely applied to the
freight situation ns a disinfectant to rid It
of the Infection known as surreptitious rate
cutting.

Union I'nclflo Ilxncctn to Come Into
I'oNKrMNloii Siiturilny.
The officials of the Union Pacific railroad
nro worked up to a high dcgrco of expect
ancy over the possible absorption of the
Jtilesburs branch of the Union Pacific , Den
ver & Gulf road , running from Julcsburg
to Denver , on October 1. They arc anx
iously looking for a telegram from Now
York , which may arrlvo at any moment
now , announcing that the Union Pacific has
finally secured full control of this Important
utrlp of railroad.
It will bo recalled that It was announced
by officials of both the- Union Pacific rail
road nnd of the Union Pacific , Denver &
( lull railroad that the Julesburg branch waste
to paaa Into the hands of the former com
pany from the latter on October 1. That
date Is now very close at luind , but nil the
necessary negotiations for the transfer
of the branch have not yet been
completed. It Is said nt the
headquarters of the Union Pacific hero that
there Is some hitch In the financial arrange
ments , and It Is a question whether every
thing 111 bo arranged In tlmo for the
Union Pacific to take possession of the
branch by October 1 , as previously expected
cind announced. But whether the control of
the Julcsburg Is secured by October 1 or
not the officials of the Union Pacific nro
confident that the event will occur very
soon. If not by October 1 , then within the
sixty days following.
The branch Is badly needed In order to
r Improve the service to and from Denver.
, The Union Pacific owns the short strip from
Denver to La Salic , Colo. , but the Union
Pacific , Denver & Gulf owns the line
from La Sallo to Julcsburg , a
distance of 152 miles. At Julcs
burg the branch connects with the main line
of the Union Pacific. Under the Gulf mau-
ngemcnt the Julcsburg branch has been al
lowed to run down. The track Is poor and
the roadbed worse. When a train passes
( rom tbo Sherman graveled roadbed of the
Union Pacific to the Julosburg branch It
scorns Ilka going on to a corduroy road. To
nako the needed physical Improvements on
the Julesburg branch and to better the
freight and passenger train Bcrvlco between
Omaha and Denver , Union Pacific control
of the Julcsburg branch ia essential , and
that ovout now appears to bo close at hand. j
Thcro Is good reason for believing that
the full control and absorption of the Oregon
Short Line will bo secured by the Union
Pacific soon after the reorganized company
takes possession of the Julesburg branch.

WEST SUPERIOR , WIs. , Sept. 20. It Is
now said that the acquirement of tha Foss-
I ton branch is tha beginning of J. J. Hill's
plan to tnko the crooks out of the several
of his lines of railroad , where a straighten
ing will give him nn advantage over com
petitors and that evidence of this Is given
In preparations for the construction of a
cut-off to Uie Twin Cities.
The starting point for the proposed cut-off
is Morn , Minn. , at the point the Great
Northern line curves to the westward , mak
ing quite a circuit to reach Anoka. By
bulldlne bi olmost n bco line from Mora to
Bomo point near Anoka , passing through
Kanabec , Isantl and Anoka counties , the
distance by this line between the two points
nould bo nbout sixty miles , whereas tha
present route from Mora to Anoka Is over
ninety miles lu length. The effect this
would have on the through service from the
Twin Cities to Superior is rpadlly realized ,
the main object being , of course , to gain
moro of a monopoly on the business , espe
cially passenger and mall.

PEARSE AND THE HOLIDAY

"Pleaso say for me , " said Superintendent
Pearse , "that I am not opposed to the Idea
of having Friday a holiday In the Omaha
schools or elsewhere. I have no preference
In the matter , and should bo asllllng to
have a holiday Frluay as upon any other
day. The Omaha schools will not be dis
missed upon Friday , but this decision has
been made In deference to the wishes of
some of the outside school pcopfc. One su
perintendent of schools from out In the
state came to Omaha lastt week to learn
whether the Omaha schools would ho dis
missed Friday. Ho said It they were not
their people would observe School Children's
day by dismissing school and attending the
exposition. On the other hand , If the
Omaha children wcro ro bo dismissed on
that day they would fill the grounds and
absorb the attention to the practical ex
clusion of outside school children , and In
that case the schools of Chelr city would not
bo dismissed , but would take a later day.
Expressions of the same sort from others
led to a consultation with the officers of the
board nnd wlt'li the state superintendent of
instruction. After this consultation it was
determined that the Omaha schools would
not bo dismissed on Friday , but upon a later
day , thus giving the youns people from out
of town the freedom of the grounds and an
opportunity to receive the consideration and
attention which t'hcy might not get if the
10,000 Omaha children were there on Fri
day. "

Chief of Police Whlto headed a posse of
detectives Wednesday who arrested twenty-
five women , the majority of them colored ,
and nearly that number of men. With but
few exceptions the prisoners have long police
records.
The nrrcsts caused consternation In "the
district , " and many who ha\e waxed fat
and grown wealthy from the robbery of the
visitors to their haunts , are preparing to
lea\o the city. To set era ! who had cn-
Joycd immunity from the police for years ,
their arrest was a big surprise. They had
been so accustomed to look upon the blue-
coated guardians of the city as their friends
and protectors that the shook of the arrest
almost caused their hearts to stop boating.
When thrown Into a cell with their com
moner brethren they became \ery Indignant
nnd Immediately wanted to send for their
Influential friends. They were told that they
had 'to ' tnko their chances with the rest ,
After spending the night In the cells at
the old station the whole number of sus-
pcots wore bundled into patrol wagons and
taken to thu new city Jail. They filled five
spacious cells. Charges of vagrancy nud
suspicious character will bo palced against
the majority of them this afternoon.
The first colored male prisoner to enter
ono of the new cells was Irrepressible "Bos

the female prisoners.

CAPITOL AVENUE PAVEMENT
City Notified that a Petition for Ita Eenewal
is Being Circulated ,
ROTTEN WOODEN BLOCKS TO BE REMOVED
Property Owners Tire of the nycuore
mill Decide to Auk the City Coun
cil to Tnkc Step * to Hnic
Aiphnlt I'ut Dunn.
Capitol avenue from Seventeenth to Twen
tieth street Is to bo repaved and put In
Rightly nnd passable condition. Sufficient
pressure seems finally to have been brought
to bear upon the property owners adjoining
to Indure them to ask for the Improvement
of thn street , for the city officials are In
formed that n petition Is being circulated
which will request that the street be re-
paved , and It is further said that the ma
jority of the feet frontage on the street \\lll
be represented upon it In the very near fu
ture.
ture.Tho
The effort to secure the consent of the
property owners to rcpave has been a long
one. Capitol avenue was originally paved
with cedar blocks , which have become BO
rotten that the street Is In an abominable
condition. The result was that not only
did the avenue become Impassable , but It
became ono of the most unsightly streets of
the city. It should be one of the most at
tractive , for nt Its head stands the.
High school building and through Its center
: or a couple of blocks run a couple of pretty
boulevard parks. If It were properly paved
the sweeping avenue with Its parks nnd
with the High school and the grounds as
a background would furnish ono of the moat
attractive pictures of the city and one that
would ho seen by almost every visitor to
the city.
When other efforts failed , the park board
this spring took steps to induce the prop
erty owners to repave. It ordered that the
parks on the avenue should not be trimmed ,
but should bo allowed to grow wild with
tangled grass nnd weeds until the street
was repaved. Superintendent of Parks
Adams failed to understand the order and
cut the grass and planted some flowers In
the little parks. Tor this action he was
reprimanded by the board and was ordered
to remove the flowers nnd pay no
attention to the parks , but on
the promise of the residents along
the streets that a petition for repaying
would be presented to the city council this
jcar , the Improvements were allowed to re
main , but nothing additional has been done.
The wooden blocks are to bo torn up and
an asphalt pavement will bo laid. As a pre
liminary to this work an ordinance was In
troduced at the last council meeting asking
that the avcnuo between Seventeenth and
Eighteenth street bo narrowed. The entire
street between Sixteenth and Twentieth
streets Is seventy-two fee4.-wlde , the widest
thoroughfare In the city. Under the ordl-
rance Introduced the block between the two
streets mentioned Is to be narrowed to fifty
feet , although the remainder will remain
seventy-two feet in width. The property
owners have asked for this In order to es
cape paying.for the paving of the additional
width. The claim that the extreme width
Is not required because there Is no park In
the block and the street Is not traveled
much. Some of the city councllmeu are
opposed to putting this Jog In the street
because th'oy think It will spoil its appear-
an'e.
riiiliiiitfor
The city has been given notice that Wil
liam 0. Rood and wife will put In a claim
for damages alleged to have been sustained
on account of the bad condition of the pav
ing Hi Fifteenth and Douglas streets. Rood
Is an expressman. On September 3 ho and
his wife wore driving along Fifteenth street
and came to the crossing on the north sldo
of Douglas. At this point a wooden brldg
ing has been put over a sewer drain. The
wood was rotted nnd the horse broke
through. The anlmaf was killed and Rood
nnd his wife were thrown to the pavement
nnd received Injuries that aio alleged to
bo serious.
A notice of a claim for damages resultIng -
Ing from a bad sidewalk has also been put
in. The injured person Is a. little girl ,

Omaha poltco arc asked to look tip the
matter of a shipment of sheep from Corona.
Cole , to the South Omaha yards. C. V.
Newlln. the man who shipped the sheep
lere. and Otto Broun , their owner , have
both disappeared , nnd It Is believed that
3rown has been murdered.
About September 1 Cox , Jones & Cox ,
commission men , received a letter from G.
P. Newlln advising them of a shipment of
2,000 head of sheep. About the 10th of the
mont'h the sheep reached hero and were
sold , fetching $3,900. Newllnft ho came
with the sheep , wanted the money In cash.
He acted somewhat suspiciously , nud the
commission men refused to give him the
lump sum. Ho was advanced $50 , and the
rest of the money was sent to io Commer
cial National bank nt Denver , with Instruc
tions to pay It to Newlln If ho could Identify
ilniself as the proper person to receive IB.
Newlln left South Omaha Immediately after
the transaction , and has not since been
heard from. From the bank in Denver the
ocal firm learns that some $2,300 of the
money has been drawn ouO.
Outside of his apparent anxiety to have
the whole sum paid him In cash there was
nothing particularly suspicious about New-
lln's conduct whllo here.

on a smill stand near the window. The
next moment a largo arm was thrust
through the window nnd Its hand grasped
the Jewels and was then withdrawn. Mrs.
Bray saw the act In a mirror across the
room and began screaming. Several guests
