In discussing tho pnssengor situation, Vice President Warner says: "Passenger traffic ha Increased In a direct ratio with tho ad vancing prosperity of the country: the vol umo of trnvel has also continued on account of activity In military matters and tho year, as a whole, has been a most favorable one for passenger trufllc, It being, however, un fortunate that full benefit of the Increased travel could not have been enjoyed at normal rates, revenue having been depleted by com pllclitlons In various directions. Omnliii Kxiioxltlou Travel. "In 1898, on account of tho Tranamlssls slppi Exposition at Omaha, tho local passen ger business amounted to 103,558 passengers carried, revenue amounting to $130,487.25; while In 1899 only 13,70," passengers wore car ried to tho Omaha exposition, tho revenue received boing $10,909.99, a decrease In local paBsengerB of 89,852 and In revenue of $119, 577.26.

Dosplto this decreaso the Missouri I'aclflc in 1899 carried 4,230.046 passengers, an Increase over 1898 of 351,237. Discussing tho freight situation Vice Prcsl dent Warner mentions tho celebrated con troversy over packing house products to tho southeast waged between Omaha and Kansas City roads last year as follows: "Freight traffic operations for 1899 show 775,137 tons carried In oxcess of last year. Packing houso product shipments decreased 36,067 tons on tho Missouri Pacific and 11,040 tons on tho lion Mountain, largeU' duo tn excessively low rates quoted by competing lines on ex port provisions, rendering Its transportation of doubtful advantage. Disturbed rate con ditions temporarily forced tho schedule on this commodity to such abnormally unre muneratlvo figures thnt It was considered prudont to withdraw for a; time from tbo market." Now equipment was purchased during the year at a cost of $1,6S5,152.20, as follows: 2,000 box cars, ten locomotives, ono plow car, ono passenger coach, ono official car.
