NEW LINE FOR UNION DEPOT

AVII1 Sieoilll- He Concluded
Time and IllNtnnvc Will
lie Sliorteued.
Close observation on the part of certain
well informed local railroad officials leads
to the belle that the deal between tho
Mlscourl Pacific and the Union Pacific Is
practically closed, whereby the former road
will use the Union station for Its through
passenger trains in und out of Omaha. A
rumor to this effect has been abroad slnco
the opening of tho new Union station and,
while no authentic Information has been
given out, no denial of tho report has over
been mado by tho officials between whom
the negotiations uro in progress. Recently,
however, a prominent offlclnl Interested In
tho pending proposition mado tho unquali
fied statement that It was only a matter of
a short tlmo until nil tho Oainha railroads
would bo using tho Union Pacific station for I
their through passenger trains, with tho ex
ception ot tho Burlington,
Several years ago tho 'Missouri Pacific
used tho depot which was at that time
dignified by tho title, "union station." Its
passenger trains used tuo union racinc
tracks between Omaha ond Pnpllllon. La'cr
tho belt line, extending from South Omaha
und skirting Omahn on tho west and north,
was constructed. Slnco that tlmo tho Web
ster street depot has been used by the Mis
souri Pacific. The advantages which would
bo afforded tho Missouri Pacific by the uso
of tho Union station havo been carefully
weighed by tho officials nnd It seems prob
nhlo now thnt tho negotiations will bo con
cluded nt nn curly date. Missouri Pacific
officials are said to hold tho opinion that
whatever additional expense may be Incurred
In tho use of tho Union station would bo
more than offset by tho ndded passenger
traffic to tho southeast from tho northern
and western lines terminating here. It
would ho within tho rango of possibilities
that tho MiEEOUli Pacific and either the
Omaha or Illinois Central would onter Into
a through sleeper arrangement, making
through connections from St. Paul and Min
neapolis to Kansas City and St. Louis.
Tho saving In tlmo Ih aUo a matter of es
pecial moment. If n. contract is entorcd Intn
by tho Union Pacific nnd tho Missouri Pacific
for use of tho depot It would nlso Include
trackage privileges hotween South Omaha
and Omaha. For Its through trains the Mis
souri Pacific would abandon Its belt line,
which U six nud one-half miles long, mak
ing tho running tlmo between SjuiIi Omaha
nnd Omaha twenty-woven minutes, and use
tho Union Paclflo tracks, a saving In dis
tance of four and ono-hnlf miles and u les
sening ot sixteen minutes In running time.
The plan under consideration contemplates
the ubo of tho Union station for tho through
tinln between Omaha and St. Louis, which
at prcsnt arrives hero nt 12:55 p. m. and
leaves ot 2:30 p. m., nnd the through train
between Omaha and Kansas City, arriving
here at 5:50 a. m. and leaving at !:.Q p. m.
The local passenger tinln operating between
Omaha nnd Auburn, which arrives bore at
9:15 and departs at 5.05 p. m., will continue
to use the Webster street depot.

COMMISSION
I'lHI I I.AII.
Letter to 'lie Uct A acuta Continue to
lie Tonle of Iiiiranl.
The circular relative to tho abolishment
of tho payment of commissions by tho rnll
road companies and suggenting a remedy for
the ticket agents, which has made its np
penrnncn in Omnha and Is creating extra
ordinary Interest, is ns follows:
"Dear Sir: The combination of capital
represented by the various railway com
panies, and the uniform acuou nt all tho
larger system), have forced their weaker
competitors into tho movement of abolish
ing all commission payments. It Is tho old
question, but under a stronger pull than
heretofore and unless successfully com
hatted by you tho loss ot commissions will
bo followed up with a formation of a new i
combination by which you will virtually
havo to face a loss of position, Tho remedy
lies In your own hands. Routo your busi
ness to all directions via tho strongest line.
"In tho east tho New York Central and
through connections (nlso Pennsylvania
lino).
"In tho wont tho Union Pacific ami
through connections, tho Chicago & North
wcstnrn nnd through connections, also the
Santa Fe system (whore they aro tho strong
lino).
"If tho ticket agents uso their combined
efforts wisely and energetically they will
provo themselves ti stronger power than
all tho grcnt railway combinations over an
ticipated. Follow tho abovo suggestions to
tho luttor until you recclvo n positive prom
Iso from Homo line that they will pay, nnd
then glvo them nil your btielncBs. A tip to
tho wIbo Is enough. Know your power and
ueo It."
Tho meaning of this circular Is obvioun
even to tho uninitiated. Tbo ticket agents
by routing all business over tho strong linen
would practically compel tho weaker lines
to offer somo Inducements In order to get u
share of tho traffic, Tho publication of tho
anonymous circular is presumed to havo
been prompted In tho main by tho brokers,
who havo suffered great loss of revenue
slnco tho now ordor of things becamo eltec
tlve. It Is not believed that the circular
will bo followod by any perceptlblo change
