HANDLING THE CHICAGO MAIL
General Mandenon Gives His Views on
Competition Between Eoadt ,
DON'T EXPECT A DIVISION OF BUSINESS
T vn Flint Trnln * 1'or Tiny Mkcly to

Unckwnnl.
General Charles F. Manderaon , general at
torney for the Burlington , has returned
from the cast after on absence of two
months , most of which tlmo was spent In
Washington looking after railroad busi
ness. The most Important matter to re-
cclvo his attention nt the national capital
vnt the fast mall service , In which he
sought to convince the postmaster general
there should be no change In the arrange
ment for hauling the mnll between Chicago
cage and Omnha. Ho submitted a reply to
the contention of a competing road nnd
an argument upportlnR his position. He
oxprcsGcd the greatest confidence that the
Poatofflco department will make no ttiange
In this service.
"Tho gOTornmcnt , " ho laid , "Is In the
same position as a heavy shipper , who se
cures good service nt reasonable compensa
tion In consideration of throwing all his
business to one line So long as n road
carrying Uu > fast mnll compiles with all
the requlrcmonta of the PostolHco depart-
: nont and gives a service which equals , If It
does not surpass that of any other road , the
chancei are In favor of Its being continued
aa the means tor transporting the mall to
tbo west
neoelptB for Service.
"Up to the first of the present year the
lilghe t amount our road received In one
year for carrjlng this mnll was $480,000.
To obtain this sum we operated a mall
train from Chicago to Omaha nnd return
at a fast rate of speed , making 1,000 miles
n day , or 365,000 miles a > ear. At that
figure therowas probably n small amount
of profit to the company. But shortly be
fore the now year the government asked for
an Improved service. It said arrangements
had been made for shortening the tlmo be
tween Now York City nnd Chicago , and be
tween Omaha and the Pacific coast , and It
wanted UH to shorten the time between
Chicago nnd Omaha.
"Wo asked -what It w anted done , and were
told that the train which we were then
operating should remain as It was , but that
another train ought to ho put on leaving
Chicago at night , ' and making the run to
Omaha In about ten hours. The old train
was fast , but this ono was to be phe
nomenally fast. Wo compiled with the
order , and Instead of covering 365,000 miles
a year , ns wo did previous to 1898 , vie now
cover 730,000 miles n year , nnd the rate
remains the samo. With this service the
company actually loses money , but the busi
ness will bo carried for the advertising It
gives the road.
"Tho quadrlennlal weighing of the mall
will begin within a few iwceks. Upon the
result of that a now apportionment of money
will be mada to the roads carrying the mall.
Tlio rate per ton , $21.37' , Is fixed by law ,
nnd cannot bo changed , and the extra In-
corno to the road , If there shall be one. will
depend entirely upon the Increase In the
quantity of mall handled. Two mall trains
n day will probably be continued , as the
government never takes a backward step.
O ] > p * c Any DlilmloM.
'Xow one of the roads Into Omaha has
gone before the Postolllce department and
naked that the mall bo divided. If It has Its
request granted the other roads will step
in and demand a ebaro of the business on
the eamo grounds. There are four roads
reaching this city from Chicago now , and
1 > eforo long there will be two more. A di
vision of the mall will not allow any rord
enough ot It to warrant the special sen Ice
which the government demands , and where
would your fast mall he ? The mall must
t > 3 transported over ono line , and eo long as
we meet the requirements of the Poatofilco
department and give satisfaction in all
branches of our service wo have reason to
boltovo there will bo no change In the pres
ent nrrnngomentH "
While In Washington Mr. ( Manderson at
tending a meeting of the Interstate Com
merce commission -with the president of the
western roads. This meeting was to devise
Bomo means to prevent rebates and cutting
of rates. Roads which Indulge In these
practices riolato the Interstate com
merce law , end the commission
vantwl the roads to report ouch
violations that the commission might punish
the transKresdor. This the roads refused to
do. They eald It would place them In the
position of Informers , which was not de
sired , On the other hand the roads do-
inanded that the commission undertake this
work. All of the larger roads , Mr. Man-
dcrson said , were -willing to enter any kind
of an agreement to maintain rates , but the
smaller ones , with Insufficient equipment ,
or abbreviated mileage , were disturbers.
The latter were the ones which ought to be
watched. But nothing was agreed upon at
this meeting , and Mr. Manderson said there
\\ould \ be another meeting for the name pur
pose next Thursday.

Union I'liclfla IlNii Nfit of I
Quiiiitltlm of Hi-ill ntur.
As a pointer showing how the tide of Im
migration Is setting in to the west the rec
ord of the books In the Union Pacific land
department Is believed to "be reasonably
reliable. The sales of land along the Kan-
ens dUlslon In 4ho month of iMarch for the
last few years were ns follows ; 1893 , 12,300
acres ; 1S94. 2,008 acres ; 1895 , 2,151 acres ;
1896 , 1,715 acres ; 1897 , 2,730 acres , In 189S
the lands were tied up as they have been in
Nebraska and there were no sales. So far
In March this year , with nearly two weeks
remaining of the month , 15,000 acres have
been Bold , with a promise that by the end
cf the month a now record will have been
established. Another encouraging feature
( if these sales at present la the great num
ber of buyers who pay cash for the land
they want.
Land CotrnnlBMlonor McAllostor la taking
steps to have a record made In the future
showing where the settlers como from. In
n general way this fact la knouu , but no
data has been obtained gl\lng the definite
Information. Mr. MoAlloBter thinks this
knowledge will 'be ' of Interest , although , of
course , It will In no way affect the busluosa
of the department.
The Nebraska lunda which were recently
Bold will not be placed on the market un
til the deeds for the same pass to the new
company , This will probably take place
within thirty days. A large number of ap
plications for portions of these lands have
keen received at the olllce and will bo
awarded when thrf property le put on the
market. This will wake the first month's
tales of Nebraska land run up Into big fig.
ures ,
Jinny Golmr tu 1'nrt Arthur.
From the number of tickets sold and
tlio number who express a determination to
go , there will bo a heavy exodus of Omaha
people to the south today. It is pre
dicted that at least e\enty-flve people will
start from this city , and many men will be
accompanied by their whes. The excur
sionists may leave on either the morning
or afternoon train , and the special train
carrying them from Kansas City tu Port
Arthur will lea\e the former city Wednes
day , nrrhliig at Its debtlnatlon on Thurs
day , This nil ) allow Friday In which to
\lslt the town of Port Arthur , the cole-
brntloa of the opening of the canal not
taking place until Saturday. The return
trip will he made In the fore part ot next
wc k. The dpeclal attractions on this ex
cursion , with the low rate , Is apt to detract
from the traffic for the regular home-
seekers' excursions dun on the western
roado today and Wednesday BO far ns
that traffic originates In this vicinity.
Depnt Cnnnlrnctlnn ,
At the new union depot trenches are
being dug for the pillars to support the shed
which Is to be attached to the south sldo of
the main structure and extend out over
ono track. This shed will be the full length
of the depot and express building , and
beyond some thirty feet Its width will DC
twenty feet , and Its full length C60 feet ,
sufficient to accommodate ah exceptionally
long train There will bo oilier track sheds
of nearly the same length , but the exact
number has not yet bern determined. The
plat for the yards at this point has not
been given out , but It Is believed that at
least four more tracks nro to bo covered.
Short Mil ? I'lnnn.
President Cornish of the Oregon Short
Line , who Is now In the west looking over
the property of the reid to learn Its condi
tion and needi , gives encouragement to the
belief that many Improvements will be made
on the line during the year. Ho has con
sulted with the heads of the various depart
ments relative to these Improvements , part
of which are plans for the St. Anthony line ,
and after securing all tlio Information pos
sible will make his decision as to what ehnll
bo dono.

WATER COMPANY FRANCHISE

F. L. Weaver addressed the members of
the Real Estate exchange at some length
In regard to the water works Injunction
case which Is now pending In the supreme
court on appeal. This Is the suit which
was brought by W. S. Popplctou to restrain
the mayor and council from entering Into
tht agreement which was alleged to be a
practical extension of the franchise of the
nater company. The Injunction was granted
by the district court and the city has now
applied to have the rehearing In the supreme
premo court advanced. Weaver wanted the
Bxohango to take action in opposition to
advancing the case and he was accommo
dated by the adoption of a resolution that
expressed the sentiment of the exchange to
that effect.
President Tukey reported the action that
has been taken by the city In the southwest
boulevard matter and the report was ac
cepted.
B. Hastings reported In behalf of the spe
cial committee on the Port Arthur excursion
that only a few members of the exchange
can make the trip at this tlmo , but that a
number of other Omaha citizens will ac
company the party.

The English Parliament Is considering the
plan of connecting that country with Franco
by railway. Engineers say a roadbed can bo
laid on the bottom of the English channel ,
and by mounting trcstlowork on wheels , so
that It projects above the water , the lallway
can be operated. This seems beyond belief ,
but it la perhaps no moro remarkable than
some of the cures accomplished by Hostel
ler's Stomach Bitters In bad cases of dys
pepsia. Indigestion and constipation. This is
on ago of wonderful achievements.
