FAST MAILS ARE NUMEROUS
Two Roads Will Run Two Eacb Way Daily
for a Time at Least ,
PLAN NOT LIKELY TO BE PERMANENT

About the Duplication.
The latest development In the fast mall
fight between the Burlington and the North
western systems Is that both roads will soon
place in service fast mall trains leaving
Chicago at about 10 o'clock at night and
arriving here at about 8 o'clock the next
morning , and that they will also continue
their fast mall trains , leaving Chicago at
3 a. m. and arriving here enrly the same
afternoon. This will bring the bulk of east
ern mall Into Omaha In the morning and
will deliver thoChIcago , papers here In the
afternoon.
This was the news given out yesterday
rooming after W. A. Gardner of Chicago , as-
elstant general superintendent of the North
western system , had held a lengthy
conference with General Manager
Dickinson and General Passenger
Agent Lomax of the Union Pacific.
In explanation of the prospective running
of two fast mall trains a day on each road
from Chicago to Omaha , It Is said that the
changes will bo made to conform with the
changes contemplated In the fast mall serv
ice from Now York to Chicago over the New
York Central and Lake Shore railroads. The
now fast mall train from New York , which
eoon will be put on by these two roads , ar
riving In Chicago at about 8:30 : p. ra. , will
not , as at first announced , displace Hie one
arriving In Chicago from New York at raid-
night. It Is said the newspaper mall from
New York to Chicago has grown so enor
mous of late that the Lake Shore train Is
now too heavy to haul In one section , al
though Its epecd Is much less than that of
the Burlington fast mall between Chicago
nnd Omaha. It Is understood that Instead
of dividing this Lake Shore train Into
two sections , another fast mall train
will bo added between New York and
Chicago , the first ono arriving In Chicago at
about 8:30 : p. m. , and the other one reaching
there at midnight , as at present.
Permanency of the Plim In Donlit.
Although It la admitted that the first
Lake Shore train will bring Into Chicago
most all the Ural-class mall that is to com ?
west , It is proposed to run a fast mall train
from Chicago to Omaha as the western con
nection of each of the tuo Lake Shore
trains. This will result In a fast mall train
out of Chicago for Omaha at nbout 10 p.
m. and another at 3 a. m. This Is the
scheme , at least , that la going to be tried
for awhile. Considerable doubt , however ,
la expressed aa to whether congress will
sanction the appropriation of money to run
such fast mail trains so close together from
Chicago to Omaha when one now carries
the bulk of the mall in a very satisfactory
manner. How long two fast mall trains
will chase each other over txJth the North
western and the Burlington lines from Chicago
cage to Omaha Is a mere matter of conjec
ture , but railroad men generally do not
look for such an expensive arrangement of
ecrvlce to bo made permanent.
With the arrival of the overland mall for
the Pacific coast and for the Islands and
countries further west in two sections ,
Instead of one , the great quantity of mall
now taken westward from here by the Union
Pacific in the afternoon will be cut In half.
The mall that leaves Chicago at 10 or 10:30 :
o'clock at night , arriving here at 8 a. ra. ,
will go west on the "Overland Limited"
train of the Union Pacific at 8:50 : a. m. The
rest of the overland mall which leaves
Chicago on the "Chicago newspaper train"
bt 3 a. m. , arriving here nt 2:55 : p. m. , will
go west on the fast mall train of the Union
Pacific , leaving here at 4:35 : p. m. Instead
of changing the mall from the afternoon to
the morning Lain of the Union Pacific , as
previously reported , the new time card will
have the effect of giving each of the big
western trains of the Union Pacific a share
of the mail to carry.
Exact Time Not Yet Fixed.
It was said by Assistant Superintendent
Gardner of the Northwestern that the exact
time for the new fast mall trains has not
been fixed and will not be until the Now
York Central and the Lake Shore operating
departments announce their new time. It
is known the Northwestern will en
deavor to make such a allowing with
Its new fast mall trains that It will wrest
from the Burlington the through mall con
tract from Chicago to Omaha. To do this It
must make a better showing , quicker serv
ice , for seven consecutive days. The prize
amounts to nearly three-quarters of a mil
lion a year , and Is esteemed to be worth
going after at least. The Northwestern now
handles all the Brack Hills mall , which It
transfers to the Elkhorn road at Missouri
Valley , but It wants the overland mall. The
Burlington oinclals pay thnt they feel quite
confident that the "Q" engines can continue
to pull the fast mall across Iirinols and
Iowa faster than those of competing lines.
They olio Intimate that the first day the
Northwestern cuts down Its running time
from Chicago to Omaha the next day the
Burlington will make a cut that the North
western , or any other line , will have con
siderable difficulty In equalling. Both roads
re In the fight for the big purse to a fin
ish , and western railroad men are looking
for some speedy runs on both roads during
the coming month.
More Hock Inland Change * .
There will be more changes In the pnssen-
gen department of the Rock Island road on
December 1 , 1898 , than have been at any
one time for fifteen years past. In addition
to those previously announced the follow
ing minor changes win become effective on
that date : J. D. Slpo will become agent at

"It Is my opinion that the exposition did
more to advertise Nebraska than could have
been done In flvo years In any other way , "
writes Immigration Agent King of the Bur-
Ington to a B. & M. ofllclali The Immtgra-
lon man expresses' the hope that there will
jo another exposition held here In 1699 ,
as in his opinion still better results In the
way of immigration into thla state can
thereby be secured.
The advertising department of the Bur-
Ington here IB following up the exposition
by sending out an Immense amount of lit
erature booming Nebraska. Over 12,000
icople left their names and addre&pes with
.ho attaches of the Burlington exhibit at the
exposition and to each one of these 12,000
s being sent a scries of Nebraska ad
vertisements. The work has kept quite a
orce of clerks under General Advertising
Agent Campbell busy at local headquarters
ever slnco the exposition closed. Most of the
icoplo who .have . reft their names for Ne-
irarka literature reside In otatcs east of
vilssourl , though qulto a number live In
Missouri , Kansas , Oklahoma and Texas.
About 2,000 names are of persons living In
owa. Illinois is almost as numerously rep
resented. Indiana and Ohio are on the scroll
with about EDO names each. The eastern
states , especially New York , Massachusetts
and Pennsylvania , have contributed a num-
> cr of names.
The railroad ofOclaTs say It Is all a guess
how many of the 12,000 people may be In
duced to move into this commonwealth and
settle hero , hut a determined effort will be
made to Interest every one of them In Nc-
jraska's rich resources and its attractions
or settfers. To each person who has regis
tered Is being sent an Illustrated pamphlet
on Nebraska , written especially for this
mrpose by ex-Governor Furnas ; a book
.hat gives more detailed Information about
the state's agricultural , horticultural , live
stock and beet sugar Industries and a copy
of the last Issue of the Corn Belt ,
To secure further literature for this pur
pose the Burlington road has offered $100
north of cash prizes for the best written
articles on Nebraska , the copy to be sent
o General Passenger Agent Francis of the
B. & M. by February 1 , 1899. The first
irlzo Is for $25 , the second for $15 , the ,
bird for $10 and ten prizes of $5 each. To
all who compete for the prizes will be
given a six months' subscription to the Corn
Belt.

Rear End Collision on the licit Line
Hill Ofcnr * Dnrliiir a FOR.
The Kansas City and SU Louis express
on the Missouri Pacific road , which is due
o arrive in Omaha at 6 a. m. , waa wrecked
on the main line of the Union Pacific at a
point just south of W street. South Omaha ,
yesterday. A heavy fog overspread the
lottoms and made It difficult to see any dls *
ance ahead at that hour. The passenger
rain ran into the tall end of a freight train
and piled four freight cars up In a heap.
3oth the freight and passenger trains were
> ound north , but the puBsenger train trav
eled so much faster than the freight that It
overtcok the latter on a grade. The freight
rain was what,1s called a "Qllmore special"
and consisted of eighteen freight cars pulled
> y Union Pacific switch engine No. 1173.
The train was too heavy for the en
gine , and consequently ' the run was
made on slow time. _ No one was
njurcd , although the engineer and fire
man of the passenger engine were > badly
shaken up. Not one of th't cars left the
track , but one bos car Is piled on top of a
car of wheat , while- coal car was smashed
nto kindling wood. The platform on the
mall car was broken , but no other damage
was done to the car. Another engine was
scut for and the train , with the exception of
the mall car , was hauled to Omaha. No
progress had bc-en made toward clearing
away the wreck up to noon , for the reason
that the wrecking crew Is at present at
Osceola. Traffic on the line was not delayed
o any extent , as incoming and 'outbound
rains used the east track between South
Omaha and Gllraore.

General Manager Webster of the Omaha

busy man yesterday. Arrangements are
being made to take advantage of the city's
permission to run a line down Fourteenth
street just as soon as It can be done. The
present season is unfavorable for track
building , but General Manager Webster eays
advantage will be taken of every open day
this winter until the work Is complete. He
Is of the opinion that the extension could be
bulft in sixty days , if open weather pre
vailed , but at this period of the year It 1s
difficult to tell how long a time may be
needed to do the work.

POULTRY ANjMJAME CHEAP
Local Market Glutted , Demand Light
and Price * on the Dovrn Grade
All Around.
Judging from the receipts of poultry the
country must be Just recovering from the
effectsof the blizzard , for while there was
< ome shortage at Thanksgiving ttmo there
a now an over supply. On Tuesday trains
began coming In loaded with game of all
kinds , as well as with poultry , and slnco
hat time there has been no abatement. One
commission man remarked that he did not
suppose there were so many chickens in
: hls part of the country and that there arc
enough on hand at the present time to last
For several days If not another pound were
received , but unfortunately Indications are
favorable for continued heavy receipts. Not
only is the supply large , but the demand
seems to be correspondingly light , aa most
people had their fill of game and poultry
at Thanksgiving and are now apparently
taking a rest so as to be in trim again by
Christmas. Dealers say the price at which
stock is offered seems to make but little
difference In the amount consumed , so the
disposition of the present supply is quite a
problem. It Is a difficult matter to give very
accurate quotations when the market is In
Its present condition , but the following
wholesale prices on live poultry are as near
correct as can bo obtained : Hens , 4 %
cents ; roosters , 3 % cents ; spring chickens ,
5 to 6H cents ; geese , 6 % to 6 cents ; ducks ,
5 to 6V4 cents , and turkeys , 8 cents. Dressed
stock is quoted as follows : Hens , 5 to 5 %
cents ; spring chickens , 6 % to 7 cents ; ducks ,
7 to 7 % cents ; geese , 7 to 8 cents , and tur
keys , 8 to 10 cents. This , It will be seen , is
a drop of 1 to 2 cents per pound all around.
Game has suffered fully as much with the
exception of ducks and prairie chickens ,
which remain at the same price. Quail
cannot bo quoted over $1 to $1.25 , and rab
bits will hardly sell for enough to pay for
their freight. Jacka are slow sale at $1 to
$1.25 and cottontails , 40 to 60 cents.

it than standing up < o a bar with a crowd of
"good fellcws , " where each one thinks it
necessary to pay for a "round" before quit
ting. The effect is bad consequences
worse. Insist upon your husband keeping
the gold medal kind at home. It's the kind
. he wants and a little of It will do you good
as well.

size , full finished ulsters. Made from heavy black
frieze , double breasted , of course , and lined with
heavy plaid cassimere in the body , and iron cloth
sleeve linings. They will stand wear andtear. They
are made for rough knockabout purposes , made to
keep out the cold and wet and made to last the
roughest boy a whole season through , and with just
ordinary usage they ought to last longer than that.

sizes only to fit boys 10 to 15 years.
