PLAOSIBLE DENIED
General Manager Holdrege Punctures E port
of Burlington1 ! Ogden Extension.
SOME INTERESTING DEDUCTIONS POSSIBLE
.Vntnrnl Trrmlnns of I.lnc Under Con-
truotlon AVent of Alliance U
ORilcn nml Tlinn Make
Transcontinental Line ,
The statement that the Burlington Is fig
uring on'an entrance to Ogdcn , the gateway
of the west , has made possible ground for
speculation regarding the future Intentions
of this road. 'A report comes from Ocden
that General Superintendent Calvort and
Chief Engineer Ensign were there last week
and the purpose of their visit Is as-
blgncd as being to look over the ground for
an entrance Into that city In order to secure
coast connections with the Central Pacific
oecUon of the Southern Pacific , which termi
nates nt Ogden. The rcoort Is denied by
officials of the Burlington , but color Is
added to it just at this time because of the
reported combine of the Union Pacific with
other connecting roads for the purpose of
making a complete transcontinental line ,
and if this plan Is broueht about the Bur
lington by btilldlnc to Ogden and making
connections with coast lines there would bo
nblo to make arrangements for a trans
continental sistcm , placlnc It on the same
level with the combination undoubtedly to
bo formed by the Union Pacific , Illinois
Contra ) , Chicago & Alton , Baltimore &
Ohio and the present western connections of
the Union Pacific.
And then , too , the Burllncton Is rapidly
progressing on the work of constructing a
line from Alliance , Nob. , to Hartvlllo , Wyo. ,
and the question arises as to what special
advantage there will be In this extension
unless It Is run on through to Ogden. It
Is said that the line could bo built from
Hartvlllo to Ogden most advantageously ,
and this Is believed by many to be the sub
sequent outcome of the Burlington's present
maneuvers.
In contradiction to this plausible theory ,
however , Is the statement of General Man
ager Holdrcgo of the Burlington , who said
yesterday regarding this reported move : "We.
have no plans for an extension to Ogden and
the story that such a movement Is on foot
Is manufactured out of whole cloth. The
only building that wo are doing at this
time is the extension of our line from Al-
llnnco to Hartvlllo , and there Is no inten
tion to go beyond that point. General
Superintendent Calvcrt Is now either at
his office or out on the road and Is not at
Ogden , as has been reported. "
OUEfiON SHORT MiNO IIXTENSION.
Ilrnncli to Hun from Idaho Fall *
Through lUch Farming Territory.
"Tho richest agricultural section In the
wast Is the claim wo make for the Snake
rlvor valley In Idaho , " said T. A. Harris ,
Immigration agent for the Union Pacific and
the Oregon Short Line at Idaho Falls , Idaho ,
who has just arrived at Union Pacific head
quarters from the west. "This region Is
situated In the northeastern part of the
state and farming Is carried on extensively
and successfully because of the possibility
to Irrigate to advantage from the waters of
the Snake river. There Is always on
abundance of water , year In and year out ,
and with these conditions existing it is
not strange that I should lay such great
stress on the Snake river valley as an agri
cultural region.
"This territory Is rapidly 'being settled
up and for the purpose of providing facili
ties for moving the big crops this fall the
Short Line has just begun the extension of
a line from Idaho Falls to St. Anthony ,
Idaho , n distance of forty miles , which will
be completed la time to handle the big
freight traffic expected this fall. Grading
has been going on for the last ten days.
There is a big gang of laborers at work and
several miles of the grade have already
been completed. It Is the Intention to ex
tend this line on through from St. .Anthony
to the Yellowstone National park , which is
a distance of ninety miles from Idaho Falls.
When completed this branch will run
through an agricultural district along its
cntiro route , which Is unsurpassed nny-
whoro. "
Mr. Harris saya that the land In the
Snake river valley is In great demand and
what yet remains vacant is having ready
eale. Ho Is now on his way to Iowa and
next week will accompany a party of fifteen
or twenty back to Idaho , who are going out
to purohaeo farms.
PERMANENT SHOTS AT 1'OCATEl.LO.
Oregon Short 1,1 lie "Will Itcplacc Old
Slmpn with New IliillcIIiiKH.
The Oregon Short Line , it is announced
from an authoritative source , has decided to
begin the erection of permanent locomotive
and repair shops nt Pocatello , Idaho , and
the -work upon the now buildings will begin
bdforo 'lino close of the present year. The
location of these shops nt this point with
a view to permanency has been decided upon
booaiiso Pocatello Is itho most central point
on the entire Short Line system , and is the
place where the Salt Lakc-Butto and
Orangor-Huntington lines cross each other.
The main shops on the road have been lo
cated at Pocatello tor some time , but , singu
larly , only ono permanent structure has as
yet been built. It having ibeon erected some
two or three years ago of brick , with Iron
roof and other late Improvements. All the
other buildings are of frame and decidedly
lacking dn stability. It Is said that the
high rate of Insurance paid out annually
upon these buildings reaches such a figure
that the difference ) In Insurance on new
buildings of a substantial character will
more > than offset the outlay necessary for
their erection In the course of ten years.
H Is elated In this connection that the
Bhort Line ehops of Shoshone , Idaho , built
many years ago by Charles Francis Adams ,
when he was connected with the Union Pa
cific , and long since abandoned , will bo torn
down and the material brick and stone
used In tholr construction moved to Pocatello
tollo for use In the now buildings there.
Thousands of dollars uro being paid each
year on these vacant shops at Shoshone and
by using the material at Pocatello this item
of expense will bo saved.

TAX COLLECTIONS FALL OFF

The following table , prepared T > y City
Treasurer Edwards , gives a comparison of
the tax collections of the current year and
the corresponding portion of last year. It
will be seen that the collections for April
and May , the first two months after the
tax list Is received by the treasurer , this
year wore noticeably greater than last year ,
iut that collections tell off during
the next" two months. Collections
wore slightly better In 1898 than In 1899 , as
ho per cent collected In 1898 la shown bc-
ow In round numbers , the exact figure being
iO.8 per cent. The falling off this year la
attributed to the fact that last year a man
vas employed to work nights on the state
ments of those who tendered checks in pay
ment of their taxes , tout whose payments
could not be receipted for on account of the
rush of work In the office. This was not
done this year because the council did
not allow the money for such work until
some time after the rush began. The city
treasurer estimates that the saving to the
city , had extra clerical help been provided
or , would have been upward of $200 , besides
ho advantage of serving the taxpayers
promptly with the settlement of their ac
counts. ' *

Che mean man with the dollar what she

each other , Indulged In some profane lan
guage , and the man with the dollar smote
Its rightful owner on the head with a chair.

peded for exits. No shots were fired , as a
burly bouncer ran down the Isle and hurled
both contestants for the dollar out Into the
street. West fell Into the clutches of the
police and was arrested. There was a deep
cut In his head which was dressed at the
station.

CASE IN EOOITY AND LOVE

WIDOW PREFERS LAW SUIT TO MATRIMONY
Clnlinniit of Her Fnrin OfTrrn < o SrtUc

on
It Out.
An Interesting , If rather homely , llttlo romance -
manco and a point of law that Is at least
unusual arc Involved In a suit that has just
been filed In the district court to Bottle the
title to ICO acres of land and a bunch of cat
tle , located near the west border of McPher-
Ken county , In this state. The property Is
claimed by a widow under the provisions of
the will fcft by her husband and also by her
husband's brother by virtue of a contract
made years before and previous to the time
when any Idea of matrimony entered into the
business plans of the brothers. The fact that
the living brother , who Is now one of the
contestants In the case , was at one time an
aspirant for the hand of the woman who was
won by his brother and would oven now like
to settle all dlmcultlcs by marrying the
widow , lends the element of romance to the
case , but the widow can't see It that way
and Insists on fighting It out In the courts.
Go the petition has been filed and , unless the
woman exercises her prerogative of changing
her .mind , the family muss will bo perpetu
ated to the benefit of the lawyers.
Hans and I'oter Johnson , the brothers
whoso savings arc now In litigation , wore
born In Sweden and came to this country to
gether about twenty years ago. They moved
west In the early 'SO'a and were among the
Immigrants who , during the next few years ,
took up a largo portion of the land In the
western part of Nebraska that had previ
ously been occupied as grazing land In com
mon by the cattlemen of that territory.
Most of the settlers -who moved Into this sec
tion at that time found farming unprofitable
and abandoned their lands , but the Johnson
brothers stuck to their quarter sections and
by combining agriculture and stock raising
succeeded In becoming fairly well to do.
It chanced that the quarter section that
was pre-empted by Peter Johnson lay just
east of the line between iMePherson and
Deuel counties , while his brother's property
was on the Deuel county side. So they
built their house on the line and went to
work with the acrecment that they should
work the two farms tocether , and that
whenever one brother died all his property
should go to the other. They Irrigated
enough land to raise what grain they needed
for tholr own use and to feed their cattle ,
and left the bulk of the half section as
grazing ground for their herd of cattle ,
which Increased year by year until it be
came a profitable source of revenue.
Here ( lie Womnn Enter * .
Their plans micht have moved on to the
end without discord had It not been for a
new and unforeseen element that came Into
their life.As the country developed school
houses sprang up hero and there , and to
one of them came a buxom younc farmer's
daughter from Illinois who had not come
west for her health and whGiSe eye was not
closed to the advantages of being the mis
tress of a good farm and an Indulgent hus
band as compared with these which attach
to the vocation of a country schoolma'am.
It was not long before both Hans and Peter
arrived at the conclusion that their solitary
existence did not Include some of the most
delightful pleasures of life , and each de
cided that the school teacher was just the
one to supply what was lacking. But the
schoolma'am preferred Peter , and then the
trouble began , Hans refused to bo pacified ,
and when I'oter brought his brldo homo he
packed his personal belongings and came to
Omaha , after Inducing his brother to put In
writing the agreement under which they had
worked the farms.
This was the last that was seen of Hans
until after Peter died nearly a year ago ,
and then he appeared to claim the 1GO acres
In McPherson county as his own. The
widow had fortified herself by a will duly
signed and attested before the county judge
and stood pat on her rights. Hans finally
offered to compromise by taking the widow
with the farm and cattle , but she was still
of the same mind as when she refused him
years before and spunklly declared that she
would lese every steer on the place before
she would marry Into the Johnson family a
second time. Hans had recorded his con
tract -with his brother In Douglas county
when ho first came to Omaha , and ho has
consequently brought suit In this district to
compel Its enforcement. In his petition ho
tells the whole story of the difficulty , not
oven omitting his offer of Compromlao with
the widow , and sots up the contention that
the marriage of his brother could not have
the effect of annulling a contract that was
entered Into previous to that time.

WHY LUMBER IS GOING UP

Construction In HcMponnllile ,
Contractors who have jobs on hand on
which the figures were made early In the
season are somewhat dismayed by the radi
cal advances that are quoted In the prices
of all grades of lumber. During the last
thirty days the advance has amounted to
from 10 to 15 per cent and lumber Is now
so high that the market has a bearish effect
on building operations on which contracts
have not been closed.
Local lumber men say that the marked
Increase In price Is duo to the unusual de
mand for lumber for railroad work and for
building elevators and warehouses that are
now going up all over the west. One line
that runs Into Omaha reports that over forty
big grain elevators are In course of con
struction along Its right of < way and re
ports from other lines show a very similar
condition. It js becoming known that the
1899 crop Is going to be a whale and vast
quantities of lumber are being used In order
to get ready to handle It. For the same rea
son the railroads are having an unusual
number of freight cars constructed , and
these keep the mills busy supplying the
lumber that Is required. Warehouse con
struction In the largo cities Is also said to
bo a factor In cleaning out the big lumber
yards , and It Is stated that few of the big
lumber mills In the south have as much
stuff in their yards at this time as may bo
found In one of the Omaha yards. The re
sult Is that lumber of all grades Is hard to
get and the market Is steadily rising.
