TUB OMAHA DAILY BEE : SAT nil DAT , OCTO1VETC 20 , 1808. LOW RATES FOR CLOSING DAY Eailroadi Make a Tempting Offer to Nebraska Patrons. THREE MORE DAYS OF REDUCED TARIFFS It Snlnriliir , Snnilny niul Monilny , t niRlitr 1'er Cent of the Orie-IVny Furc Will Alinly WHIilH the 200-Mile J.lmlt. For Saturday , Sunday and Monday , the last three days of the Transmlsslsslppl Ex position , the lines entering Omaha from the I' north , south and west have made wonderfully - ( ' fully low rates. With a couple of excep tions the rates are the lowest that have been granted to the exposition during its lifetime and will undoubtedly "clean up all the exposition travel remaining along the Nebraska lines. " The rates to bo offered on these three days will amount to 80 per cent of the one way fare for the round trip to Omaha from all points within 200 miles of Omaha , except east of the Mie- ourl river. Up to date the Chi cago-Omaha lines have not announced any reduced rate * for the closing days of the exposition. The matter Is now under con sideration and it Is possible that the Iowa lines may follow the worthy example of the Nebraska roads. While the rates agreed upon by the Ne braska lines are supposed to bo limited to a radius of 200 miles , they are not. The Union Pacific Is going to allow the people of North Platte , 294 miles from Omaha , to enjoy the rates. The Burlington will apply the rates from Holdrege , which Is beyond the 200-mile radius , and if any one from McCook or Ox ford wants to come in to help celebrate the last days of the fair it Is probable they will not be denied the low rates. The tickets on these rates will bo offered for eale on Saturday morning for the first time by these railroads : The Union Pacific , the Burlington , the Elkhorn , the Missouri Pacific , the Hock Island and the Omaha road. They will be sold nil day on Saturday nnd Sunday and for all trains arriving In Omaha on Monday morning , The final re turn limit on all the tickets will bo Tues day night , November 1. All of the passenger officials are confident that the rates will bring In an enormous at tendance. It Is expected that more people will be attracted to Omaha for the closing day than for the opening day. This will be in accord with the policy of the railroads , which offered very few concessions at the start of the big show , but In the latter days have named the lowest rates ever quoted to Omaha. DCIUAli OK TUB 1VHKCIC VICTIMS. One of the Men Killed AVnit to Ilnvc llecn Mnrrleil Monilny. The aftermath of the Union Pacific wreck at Silver Creek , Nob. , on Wednesday , brings to light ono of the saddest stories known In local railroad circles for many a day. Wil liam B. Shannon , the head brnkeman of freight train No. 27 , who died from his in- jtirlee , was to have been married next Mon day to Miss Louise Snyder of Sioux City , la. The wedding was originally set for Tuesday of this week , the day before the wreck oc curred , but an Shannon had just started to work for the Union Pacific , and wanted to got a start with the company , It wan thought best to postpone the ceremony until Monday next. Miss Snyder came down from Sioux City yesterday , and will accompany the re mains of the dead brakeman to his former home at Dcnnlson , 0. , this afternoon. Before coming to Omaha Shannon bad lived In Sioux City , where ho was employed on one of the Northwestern lines. The funeral of Samuel Illndman , the Union Pacific engineer who was killed In tbo wreck , will not take place from his late residence in this city , but from his foimer borne In Grand Island , Neb. The funeral services will be held there on Saturday morning. The remains were taken to his old homo In Grand Island from Silver Creek yesterday. His wife and family went out to Grand Island this afternoon , occupying a special private car on the "Fast Mall" train through the courtesy of General Manager Dickinson. The funeral of William II. Kenan , the Union Pacific fireman who was killed In the same collision , will bo held at St. Fran cis Xavlcr's church , Council Bluffs , on Sat urday morning at 0 o'clock. The remains will be accompanied from his late residence , 1019 North Eleventh street , to thu church and from the church to the CatholK ceme tery by a delegation of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen. KEKIMM ; THIS HAILUOADS nusv. Special Trnlnn Nreeniinry to Ilnndle As the time for exposition excursions grows shorter the Omaha terminal lines continue to bring In increasing crowds of visitors. The Northwestern this afternoon had three special excursions in addition to their regular trains. The first arrived at 1:45 : p. m. and the other two followed within nn hour. They were from Gilbert , Carroll , Boone and other points In Iowa. The Ilock Island had two special trains from the west at 11 a , m. yesterday , nnd both wore well filled. A party of S50 excursionists from points on the Northwest ern In Minnesota , between the stations of Rochester and Tracy , came Into the Web ster street station late Thursday night. It was in charge of Freight and Passenger Agent Van Camp of the Northwestern at Rochester , Minn. , and K. M. Weston , trav eling agent of the Northwestern , from \V1- nona , Minn. The regular trains of the Bur lington and the Union Pacific brought m lluavy crowds from the west yesterday , and the outgoing trains were equally well filled with returning excursionists. The Mis souri Pacific hits an cxcttrslon here of 1,350 people from Atchlion , Kan. , and vicinity , to stay hero until Sunday. WATCIII.Nd SHOUT M.NU IJIiHCTIO.V. Opinion tlint t'nliin I'nrlllc Mnn Will He ChiiKen 1'rcNlilfiit. There Is great Interest manifested In local railroad circles over the annual meeting of the directors of the Oregon Short Line , which will be held In New York City this afternoon. As ten out of the fifteen direct ors who were recently chosen by the stock holders nt Salt Lalio City nro Union Pacific representatives there are many who believe the Union Pacific will force the election of Its own president at this meeting. Two names are most frequently heard In connection with the presidency of the Oregon gen Short Line. These nro IMward Dickin son , general manager of the Union Pacific , and H. G. Hurt , president of the Union Pa cific. Should the latter be chosen he would undoubtedly fill both offices. Should Mr. Dickinson bo made president of the Short Line , and accept it , it Is believed bo would remove from here to Salt Lake City and act I 1 as president and general manager of the Short Line. It is not thought that Samuel Curr , now president of the Oregon Short Line , will be re-elected. Thu results of the annual meeting of the Union Pacific directors In New York City on Thursday were just what were anticipated. K. II. Harriman was again chosen chairman of the exccutlvo committee. H. G. Hurt was re-elected president , nnd all of the other officers of the board were continued In their respective offices. ( iincUol on the Pintle Illver. Omaha passenger men pleasantly remem ber John E. Gunckel , who represents the Lake Shore road at Toledo , O. Ho visited Omaha in July when the fishermen of two continents assembled here and ho was to pleased with what ho saw that ho went back and worked up the party that came out hero last month fiom his home town. Like all Gaul , Gunckel's work In Toledo Is divided Into three parts. Ho writes copy for the reporters when they run bhort , rus tles passenger business nnd tells fish stor ies. The latter Is his long suit. Ono of the greatest he ever told was when ho wrote the following for the Toledo Bee and the Omaha Bee after n trip across the plains of Nebraska on the Union Pacific. This is what be eays : While riding along the waterless Platte. 1 asked Captain A. G. Shearman , the general agent of the Union Pacific , where the cow- boyn nnd farmers procured their fish. Mr. Shearman said : "Tho bottom of thu Plutto looks as dry as a temperance meetlne. but It Is deceiving. The riverbed it nulcksand. eight feet In depth , a stranco. active mass of moving earth and water , although you can't nee It move perfectly dry nnd hot on top. I stopped off at Ocallala last summer and saw the cowbovs fish. The Platte con tains but one species of fish , a gulf catfish , which crows to the enormous weieht of 250 or more pounds and has greater strength than an ordinary Nebraska mule. Its power lies In Its success in shovlne Itself through the quicksand. The boys dig a hole ten feet square , eight feet deep In the bed of the Platte. The catfish , through some Instinct , finds this hole and remains for a time. The cowbovs fish this hole. It must be done within a few hours after It is made quicksand boon shuts it up. Thev use young prnlrlo dogs as bait. The summer afternoon In mind they caught four cat fish weighing 180 pounds each. "Hero is the strange part. While the boys usually catch five or six catfish out of each hole , when evenlne came thov had but four , so tliev baited their hook and tied the line to a cornstalk. A mule crazing nearbv came along during the ntcht. and whllo eat ing the cornstalk somehow his lees became entancled In the fish line. Ono of these blc catfish bltlnc at the bait started In the quicksand and with such strength that he pulled In the mule. The boys were com pelled to again dig out the hole. Thev found the mule and the catfish , the latter weigh ing 241 pounds. Of course the mule was dead. It Is said mules avoid tbo river bed of Platte. " Men In the City. There are a host of passenger men In the city. Some of them have como to see the exposition in Its closing days and others are hero to sco If they can set a share of the travel of the Midway folks and other exposition Inhabitants when they leave the city next week. There Is a big scramble for the Midway business and rumors of all kinds of reduced rates are rife. Oc the other hand , one of the joint agents representing the Western Passenger association has taken a list of the Midway people , and promises to report any line that shaves the rate for them. Among the visiting passenger men are : General Western Passenger Agent Jerome and Traveling Passenger Agents Vanderpool and Merrill of the New York Central , Trav eling Passenger Agents Branch of the Erie , Selnworth of the Michigan Central , Foley of the Pennsylvania , McNutt of the "Katy , " Cundey of the Denver & nio Grande , Hard- man of the Wabash , Giles of the West Shore and Duxbury of the Baltimore & Ohio.

Ea&tbouml , with the close of ticket sales November 3 reduced one-way rates in effect from Missouri river points to St. Louin , Chicago and intermediate points will be withdrawn. , Throughout the exposition the travel on the trolley line between Omaha and Council Dluffs has been heavy. This has been espe cially true during the last month. A great number of strangers come to the corner of Fourteenth and Douglas streets every morn ing to take the car for the Ufufls. As there la n double track there many of them stand and let several cars coming from the Bluffs go by , thinking they will como back on the other track , but the cars continue around the loop. It has been suggested that the conductors of the Bluffs cars could save lots of Inconvenience to visitors if they would call out the cars and their destinations at this busy corner.

A letter of Inquiry has been sent to the ou- perlntendent in charge of the construction asking how soon euch rooms can be made ready and requesting that all due haste bo made In pushing the work on tbo now buildIng - Ing In this direction.
