FAIR FIELD AND NO FAVOR
Omaha Jobbers Demand that Southern Dif
ferential * Shall Be Abolished ,
HOW LOCAL PACKERS ARE HANDICAPPED
Second HOK KllllttK I'olnl In tlie
United Htntcn Made Sccomlury
to St. .loKcjih " " ( I
Sioux. City.
Omaha Jobbers arc uniting In a vigorous
effort to secure the abolition , of the differen
tial on packing house products that has for
yeara been a powerful handicap on the local
packing IntcreBta. Personal loiters have
recently been sent to the railroad officials
by about seventy-five Jobbers and prominent
business men , nnd In these the argument In
favor of a modification of the present rate
Byrtem nro urged with considerable vigor.
What success will follow the movement Is not
yet apparent. Some of the railroad inter
ests that ere Involved are known to bo In
favor of making aomo concession if It can
bo arranged without bringing on too serious
complications south of Kansas City , and
there is a general feeling that If the mat
ter Is vigorously pushed the long desired
action can bo eocurod.
Under the present system Omaha is placed
at a serious disadvantage as compared with
Sioux City on the north and St. Joe and Kan
sas City on the south. The rate on , pack
ing house products from Sioux City to Min
neapolis nnd St. Paul la 15 cents. From
Omaha , only 100 miles further south , It is
23H ccnta. From St. Joe and Kansas City ,
where the haul Is 130 and 200 miles longer
respectively , the rate is only 24 cents. The
result is that Omaha has to pay 8 % cents for
a haul of 100 miles from Omaha to Sioux
City , while St. Joe and Kansas City pay only
% cent for the longer haul from these points
to Omaha ,
IilmltH Southern Slilnmcntn.
In the southern business a similar situa
tion Is presented. There there Is a differ
ential of C cents against Omaha as com
pared with St. Joe and Kansas City in ship
ments of hog products to southern points.
At the eamo tlmo the Illinois Central takes
the stuff from Sioux City to all points
reached 'by ' Its line at exactly the eamo rate
that Omaha -packers - have to pay. It Is this
latter condition that the present movement
is designed to amend. Incidentally the agi
tation calls attention to the unfair discrimi
nation against Omaha In its northern ship
ments and opens the way towards a sub
sequent demand for a readjustment in that
direction.
As a matter of course a change Is vigor
ously opposed by the interests that now
profit at the expense of Omaha. The fact
that since March 1 the Gate City has risen
to 'bo ' the second point in the United
States in point of hog-killing capacity in
spite of the handicap that It carries sets
thorn to thinking what it would become if
the differentials -were removed. It is as
sorted that one of the principal reasons why
this unreasonable discrimination has been so
difficult to remove consists In the fear of
rival pointa that , once given a fair field
and no favor , Omaha would in a few month
become the greatest packing point west of
Chicago.
WAITING FOIL IlKOHGAXIZATIOJf.
\Vlnconnlii Central to Join AMiioclntlon
When Hcci'lvrrxliln EnilN ,
J. Francis , general passenger agent of the
Burlington , has returned from Chicago ,
where ho went to attend the meeting of the
representatives of the -western roads held
for the purpose of raising the rates on Pa
cific coast passenger business from the Mis
souri river , to the regular tariff , $40. Mr.
Francis was much pleased that on agree
ment was reached -whereby the desired end
was satisfactorily brought about.
Speaking of the question of admission
Into the Western Passenger association of
the Wisconsin Central , Chicago Great West
ern and Minneapolis & St. Louis roads , Mr.
Francis said : "Thismatter was not dis
cussed by the association at Its meeting
Tuesday. It Is not likely that these roads
will enter the association for some time
yet , because the Wisconsin Central Is not
yet entirely out of the hands of the re
ceivers. When the reorganization Is com
pleted it is practically assured that the
Wisconsin Central will Join the association. '
It is also stated that the Great Western
and the Minneapolis & St. Louis lines wll
Join when the Wisconsin Central does ,
However , as long us the reorganization pro
ceedings inako it Impossible for the latter
road to Join , It is improbable that the other
two -will como in , consequently the present
unsatisfactory and unstable rates existing
on ( passenger business between Chicago and
St. Paul and the north-west will likely con
tinue for some little tlmo yet , much to the
dissatisfaction of the lines competing for
this business which 'belongs ' to the associa
tion , and are , for that reason , unable to
meet the slightly reduced rates In effect oo
the outsldo lines.
