8 THE O3EAHA DAILY BEE : ICXSTDAY , OCTOBER 1 , 1898. FAIR HAS HELPED THE WEST Railroad Mon Diicant on the Results of the Big Bhow. DIRECT BENEFITS OF THE EXPOSITION Officer * of HIP Hock iNliinil I'rnUc the I.ocnl MntinKiTM mill Toll AVhnt They Think Will He the Future KJtcetH. _ _ | The special train of the Chicago , Itock Inland & Pacific , bearing a number of the directors and executive officers of the com pany , left for Chicago yesterday afternoon at 1 o'clock. Chairman Cable of the Board of Directors , President Purdy , Vice Presi dent Trucsdale , Vice President Parker and the other members of the party were de lighted with their visit at the exposition , which they thoroughly Inspected on Satur day and Sunday , Those who hnd seen It be fore said they were glad to have se n It again before the gates closed , while those who 'had not "been hero earlier In the season eald they were sorry to have postponed the pleasure so long. Before leaving President Purdy said : "This Is my second visit to the exposition and I have enjoyed It even more than the first. It Is truly a magnificent show and the best part about IA Is that It Is going to pay back to the stockholders a larger per centage of the Investment than has any previous exposition. It has been a grand success and has done an Immense amount of good for Omaha and the whole west. The results must bo pleasing to the people of Omaha and reflect credit on those who have had the management In charge. " Vice President Parker was equally en thusiastic about the exposition. He snld : "Tho exposition has liecn a greater success than the most hopeful of us anticipated. It has been a financial success and that Is the standard we guage pretty nearly everything by nowadays. I hope there will be no bad cfff'ts following In ltd wako , UK were ex perienced by Chicago , and I do not bollevo them will "bo. Your people se-jmiM to have jirofUed by Chicago's experience and have avoided the dangers of Immciue Invuiilinenls that could not pay. IhiNlncHN CJciiprallsHood. . "The business prospects throughout the west , as In. Omaha , appear to lie excellent. Good crops and a general period of prosper ity has made business good. Our traffic this fall has been splendid , much greater than for many years , and the outlook for the com ing year seems to be good. We have Just 'been over the lines of our system , except the southern branch to Fort Worth , Tex. , and all along them business appeared to be good. The lines are In good physical condi tion. The trip Is one of regular annual In spection and has no especial significance. We nro not contemplating any extensive Im provements nor have we decided to build any extensions. It Is natural that all the railroads should take advantage of the good condition of business to spend some money for betterments , and I presume we shall do 60. " General Passenger and Ticket Agent Se bastian was still praising the big show when the train pulled out and cordially thanked General Agent Ilutharford for personally es corting him through the Midway on Satur day evening. In speaking of the passenger travel to the exposition , Mr. Sebastian said : "Travel to the exposition has bc-en splendid , much better than wo over anticipated. Our line has done a very heavy business through- 'out the season , particularly during the last . two months , and I believe all the other lines liave done well. Dut viewing the matter from a purely passenger standpoint there Is one other result that must not be forgotten. Such a heavy volume of travel during a few months pretty nearly destroys regular travel for a long time to come. Of course , there Is the commercial travel , which goes right along , but people from the country who have visited the exposition are very qpt not to take another trip for a long tlmo to come. And this condition Is what Is moat dreaded by passenger men. I hope It will not bo the case In the west , but It was the aftermath experienced by the roads after the Centennial and after the World's fair. The Pennsylvania railroad did an enormous business Into Phil adelphia during the Centennial , and It said afterward It did not make a cent. Our busi ness during the exposition has been far heavier than we expected , but It would be wrong to conclude that the Rock Island road will therefore be much richer as a result of this fair. InlcrcHt In Farm Luuil * . "Thero Is one form of result , however , that cannot bo measured In dollars and from this we. In common withall of the western lines , expect to realize considerable benefit. I re fer to the Interest created among visitors , especially. those from the cast , In western farm lands. 1 believe a mimber of settlers will bo attracted to the west as a direct re- eult from the exposition. Our men In charge of the Hock Island exhibit In the Agriculture building , and. by the way , I think that Is the very finest exhibit of Its kind on the grounds , told mo this morning that they had every reason to expect that a number of people ple who had many Inquiries about lands whllo hero would settle along our line In Nebraska , Kanpns , Indian Territory and Ok lahoma , If this be true , the railroad and the country through which It runs are both benefited and there In obtained a result com pensating for the slump In passenger traffic that Is to be expected after the close of the exposition. "Tho exposition should have a very ben eficial effect on Omaha. It Is today one of the best known cities In the world. Any change In Us business from what It was before the exposition was projected must bo an Improvement. Omaha bos profited by the experience of Chicago and will not have a lot of useless hotels and big lodging houses to remain Idle after the fair closes. The men who bavo built the exposition de serve the greatest credit for the faithful way In which they have worked , particularly Mr. Rosewater , who has done so much for It In every way. Whether they receive credit for It or not the railroads have done a crcat deal for the exposition. Their subscriptions were liberal and the rates granted were much better than were given to Chicago for the World's Fair. This may not bo the pop ular opinion , but the record of the rates made for each occasion proves the truth of the assertion. The rates that moved the travel to this exposition were lower In actual price and were granted over a more extended territory than during the World's Fair. " St. Pntil Vlxltorn. George II , Mcllae , assistant general pas senger agent of the Omaha road , Is In the city from St. Paul In charge of a numerous party of exposition visitors , woo are guests of the railroad company. While In the Streets of All Nations on Saturday evening Mr. McKao fell from a camel when that ani mal took Its peculiar drop to the ground. A heavyweight doctor fell on the genial pas senger man and slightly Injured him. Save for this mishap the visit to the exposition proved most enjoyable. Among those In the party were : Paymaster It , Dodd , Superintendent of Telegraphs II. C. Hope and General Agent P. 3. McCabe , all of the o'maha road ; P. P. Nuzum of tha St. Paul Dispatch , D. N. Delltnger , Dr. .A. II. Goodrich , W. II. Crary , Dr. B. S. Wodd , Dr. J. W. Ucttlngcr and Dr. Verlge. IIiiHtle for Mlilttny I'ntrniuiKC. The contest for the travel of the conces sionaires and other Midway denizens con tinues , and as the time for their departure from Omaha grows nearer the rates quoted them become lower. There has never been a movement , not even army business , for which so many eastern lines have sent representa tives to Omaha. There may be a pool of the business , each line taking Its proportionate tionate share , In order to save the rates going down from nil. Ilullroml Noi-M. W. S. Thorn of St. Paul , assistant general passenger agent of the See line , Is In the city. Assistant General Passenger Agent Thomas 13. Swann of the Denver & Ilio Grande Is In town. President Perkins of the Burlington sys tem Is hero In his prlvite car to take n last view of the exposition. U. D. Caldwell , chairman of the Western Passenger association , left his Sunday cshosl class In Chicago to spend yesterday at the exposition. General Passenger Agent Frank I. Whit ney of the Great Northern railroad , accom panied by his family. Is at the exposition. Ills private car Is stationed just outstdo the grounds. Hallway supply men who have been won dering why the Nickel Plate has never or dered the new engines which were talked of some tlmo ngo will find the explanation In the last published proceedings of the West ern Railway club , In which Mr. John Mac kenzie Is quoted as saying : "Three years ago , I think , In my annual report I recommended - mended buying tweuty-five freight and ten passenger engines , because I thought we needed them. Tlmo went on and those en gines have not materialized and the man agement said to me only a few days ago that , notwithstanding the fact that I had re peated the request , we would not get any this year ; that we had more engines than wo bad business for , notwithstanding the fact that the business had been Increasing with us all the time. What has brought about such n condition ? The fact that we have succeeded In getting more out of the engines wo hnd. We used to think It was entirely satisfactory to get 2,500 miles a month out of an engine ; now we are not satisfied unless we get from 4,000 to 6,000 miles a month.

LAST HONOR TO GEORGE SELF McmlxT of the Mnrlne CiiriH ( Jiten 11 Mlllnr > - I''inieriil by Illn Ciiin- rniloH of the War. George Self , the United States marine who died of fever at St. Joseph's hospital Friday night , was accorded a soldier's funeral yes terday morning nt 10 o'clopk. The funeral was held from the undertaking rooms ot Ileafcy & Heafey. No ceremonies were held at the undertaker's , the comrades of the de ceased meeting there for the formation ot the cortege to the cemetery of'tho'Holy Scpulcher.

The Woodward Stdck company opened the week at the Crclghton theater yesterday by presenting Charles Dickinson's well known Lbrce-act comedy called "Incog. " This play held the boards at'the ' Crelghton a week early this spring and met with such success that Mr. Woodward decided to put It on again. It Is an old ( play , but one that will make a crowd roar with laughter , no matter how often they may have seen It before. It Is In good hands In these of the Woodward company and was especially well presented last evening. Frank K. Llndon , as General Rufus Stanhope , seemed to bo the bright particular star and his portrayal of the part was well nigh perfect. Frederick Montague , as his son Tom , who caused all of the fun and trouble- was , as usual , good. Walter Greene , Wilson Rnosund Will Davis handled their parts well , while Miss Gertrude Berkeley , as Mrs. Winters , seemed to cap tivate the large audience , and Miss Dertha Crelghton and Miss Emma Dunn also pleased them. Last evening's entertainment was In terspersed with one of the best specialty acts seen hero In some time. It was on the program as Olivette , the "Man In Black , " and ho gave a marvelous exhibition of Jug gling and balancing , winding up with some very clever shadowgraph work. He comes direct from Kostcr & Blal's , New York , and Is a show In himself. The Woodward com pany will remain In this city only two weeks more , after which It will go to Minneapolis to fill a ten weeks' engagement , and Omaha people will do well to avail themselves of the opportunity to see them for the last tlmo this year during the next two weeks. The advent of "Yon Yonson , " the simple , honest , good-hearted Swede , blundering bin way Into the heart of the American people wherever ho coes1 a character by no means unfamiliar to ihe Omaha public , was wel comed Into the city by a packed house at the Boyd last evening. Pit , balcony and gallery were crowded. Under the direction of Thall and Kennedy a number of attractive" features have been Incorporated In this orig inal farcical production of Gus Hcegc , such as the lumbermen's quartet In the second act , and the pleasing dancing and yodellng of Miss Jerome In the last act. Ben Hen- drlcks makes the typical Yon Yonson. The double part of Vanderbllt Bolts , the north western town real estate boomer , and AVcn- dell Phillips Simpson , the colored foot man of the Jennings mansion , car ried by Arthur Earl , makes him amusing , but both characters are Intentionally exaggerated , and the same may be said of the role of Mrs. Laflln , the proprietress of the Junction hotel , sustained by Miss Annie Mack Berleln. However , there Is enough of the humorous In the whole piece In Its satires upon modern convention alities to keep the .audience . laughing. Jllss Georgia Bryton proved herself to be a winsome - some Impersonator of the boyish character of Rely , and H. Armstrong was quite enter taining In his English make-up of Gerald Harcourt. The more serious parts of Amos Jennings , Holloway and Grace Jennings were very well borne by Edward J. Mack , George Wollcr and Beatrice Norman respectively. The humor and gentle pathos of "Yon Yon- sou" has made him a favorite everywhere , and the up-to-dato parodies of the lumber men's quartet do not fall to earn several encores. Sutton Vane's "Humanity" follows Wednesday. The Trocadero last night opened the win ter season with one of the strongest bills 'which It has yet presented and did so to the largest audience which has ever favored the house. The program Is a varied oat , em bracing several acts of unusual excellence , though only one can be really classed as sensational and that Is the-aerial act of the Del Sabos , the finale of which Is one which raises people out of their chairs. Arthur Dunn of "Slnbad" fame , and Mattle Nichols , In a comedy sketch , "The Actress and the Bell Boy , " present an amusing potporrl of music and extravaganza. Pearl Hlght , In figure and manner glvos a very good Imitation of the famous Anna Held , but while she Is decidedly clever she could never set the heads to wagging like 'the ' original. 'Mllllan ' and Shields are a mirth provoking pair. While their act Is cot orig inal by any means It has the merit of being well done. The Howard trio , of which the Juvenile Is by far the most clever , give a pleasant sketch with song and dance. Leroy and Morris are a good team on the hori zontal bar and Zlslta In feats of magic , while presenting nothing startling or novel does his tricks with the grace of a Hermann. McCabe and Emmcttwith a comedy ac robatic act complete the 'bill. ' LOCAL BREVITIES Louis Johnson , a bartender employed In n saloon at the corner of Farnam and Eleventh streets , fell last evening while crossing Harney street near Farnam and broke the knco cap of his left leg. Ho was removed to the police station and placed In charge of the city physician. Later ho was taken to Clarkson hospital. H. 0. Dunn , a guest of the Hlllsldo hotel , Eighteenth and Dodge streets , was robbed of a valuable overcoat last evening. Before entering the dining room at supper time ho hung the garment on the hall rack and when ho came out It was mlMlng. Dunn then re ported his loss to the police. John Thompson , who was severely burned about the hands and body during a fire nt his home. Fortieth and Farnam streets Sat urday night , was taken to the Clarkson Memorial hospital last night for attend ance , bis condition having become serious. Two Little PlrcM. A small blaze was discovered Saturday night about 11 o'clock In the one-story brick house occupied by John B , Johnson and family at 312C Farnam street. An alarm was sent In and the engine of station No. 18 put out the fire before any damage was done. The blaze \vasf caused by gasoline from a steve catching fire. Mr. Johnson's hands were badly burned whllo attempting to extinguish the flames. Yesterday afternoon a billboard at the corner of Thirteenth. and Howard streets was burned , having caught fire from a pile of leaves beneath It Ignited by a cigar stump dropped by some one passing.
