DISSOLUTION NOT IMMINENT
So Dsclare Railroad Officials Begarding
Wsstera Passenger Association.
ORGANIZATION MEETS NEXT TUESDAY
rirnrr Men la Omaha Insist that

C.Vj of Heasnas. '
Humor of the dissolution of the Western
Passenger association were heralded In
railroad circles yesterday. The reports
which come from Chicago, the association's
headquarters, state that the organization
li to be disbanded Monday.
While It Is admitted by local trafflo men
that some minor differences may exist be
tween some of the roads comprising this
association, It is not believed that the as
sociation Is to be disbanded and several
officials have positively stated that If a
dissolution Is contemplated It will not be
made Monday, for the association has a
meeting billed for the day following. A
number of local railroad representatives
will attend that meeting.
At this meeting the affairs of the asso
ciation will be gone over thoroughly and
efforts made to settle all differences, of
whatever nature, and place the association
on the most harmonious basis. It Is urged
that no serious problem, such as would
warrant the statement that the association
Is threatened with dissolution, confronts
Its members.
Talk of Disbanding;.
Since the Rock Island withdrew from the
Western Passenger association there has
'been more or less talk of Us disbanding,
kut traffic men In Omaha declare that such
talk is Idle. If for no other reason, said
tine official, the association would be held
together In order to preserve Intact the
several bureaus dependent upon It, such
a the clergy, the excursion and the mile
age bureaus.
' Like the Intermileage association, It la
maintained that the Western Passenger
association Is a permanent thing and can
not be done away with. For Instance, it
la pointed out that In making special rates
.where the lines of several roads are to be
traversed the association fills an Indispens
able office. This Is one function, It Is
urged, which only the association, aa the
central body, can profitably perform.
To abandon it, therefore, and return to
the old, complicated system, officials ear
would be utter folly. It Is very much un
like the Immigration bureau, whose disso
lution could be brought about and possibly
will be without seriously impairing the in
terests which .it was organized to take
care of.
tirovrn to Bis; Proportions.
In addition it Is argued that the Western
Passenger association has grown to exten
sive proportions, having a large plant with
2M) or 300 clerks at headquarters and a thor
ough system of operation, and it would be a
movement of far-reaching and disastrous ef
fects to abolish it. At least half a dozen
trnfflo men In Omaha were Interviewed
Thursday concerning the report, all of them
men whose roads are In the association, and
each made the same answer, that there was
no possibility of the dissolution of the asso
ciation, though some in closest touch with
the situation admitted that minor differ
ences possibly existed which would be
taken up at the meeting in Chicago Tues
day. What the nature of these differences
"were they declined to say.
rhedale (or New Acquisition.
The Burlington has arranged its schedule
to go into effect on Its new acquisition, the
Kansas City A Omaha. The tables will
show service between Alma and Sutton,
which is on the main line, and plans have
been so arranged that direct connections
will be made with east and westbound main
line trains.
The line is divided Into four sections for
purposes of convenience. From Alma to
Sutton will be the first division and its
trains will connect with those going both
ways between Denver, Chicago and Omaha.
! Another branch will extend from Sutton
to Btromsburg, another from Stroiusbtirg
'to York and FaJrbury via Falrmount. The
fourth will be from Btromsburg to York
and Chester via Falrmount.
The purpose of the company is to form
' a line through that part of the state from
north to south and to do this, of course, it
will be necessary to Incorporate the old
'line in some places. The Burlington's
I schedules will undergo considerable
I changes in that part of the atate traversed
' by this line, but it will be the purpose of
;be road to make no alterations in Its
J main line tables.
Derailing?' Rloeklna; System.
The Northwestern railroad is experiment
ing with a new derailing blocking system
with which It is designed to equip the en
tire road. The block la supposed to pre
vent tralna from entering open switches
I and colliding with cars standing on the
sidings, a character of wrecks that is very
common.
Division Superintendent Strickland, Road
, master Walsh and other Northwestern men
gave the new devise a thorough test in the
north yards yesterday and they are emi
nently satisfied that they have struck upon
i the right system. Genera! Manager Scott
of the road at St. Paul has ordered ten of
'the blocks Installed at different placea for
preliminary uses.
The block under consideration was in
vented by an Omsha man, C. M. Mitchell,
$315 Douglas street, and a conductor on
.the Union Pacific. The block is made of
pressed or cast steel, seven-eighths of an
Inch thick, five Inches wide and thlrty-slx
Inches long, curved from ttle point which
rests on the rail and the outer edge of
'the ties about eight inches from the rail.
, The re is a one and one-fourth inch flange on
the lnalde of the block, which will lead the
trucks away from the main line. It is
secured at the outside end by a Journal

which Is solid with the block and passes
through a bridge Iron, or ehair, fastened
to two ties. On the rail there is a stub
guard one and a half Inches high to raise
the wheel aa it enters the block and to
prevent any jar aa the wheel passes over it.
This block, when not in position to de
rail. Is swung out from the rail. As the
rail Is not broken, expansion or contrac
tion, dirt or snow does not affect the oper
ation of the device In any way.
The block is worked by conneetlon with
the shaft, which Is a gaspipe 110 feet long,
by a bell crank on the switch guard, thus
obviating the necessity of any extra guards.
And It may also be stated that no extra ties
are needed.
If the Northwestern adopts this system it
will put In one block to every mile of its
track.

ARMOUR IN OMAHA COMPANY
Rumor that Packers' Field is Being Bednood
to Harrow Limits.
ACTIVITY APPARENT IN PACKING STOCKS
Hammond Shares Change Handa oa
Chicago Stork Exehanae and Re
port Raya Armoar Com
pany Is Parrhaser.
It is reported In packing circles that Ar
mour has bought into the Omaha Packing
company, thus dividing the property of the
Fowler Bros, (limited) with Swift and
Company. It was intended last May that
the Omaha Packing company be taken in by
a syndicate headed by Ira M. Cobe, which
proposed $2,000,000 preferred stock and $1.
000,000 common. For the Anglo-American
property Swift and Company paid about $3,
000,000. Since It was organized the Omaha Pack
ing company has made money and has been
much sought after by the packers. It has
an establishment here, and at Chicago It
has a fine plant outside of the stock yards,
thus being able to get Its hogs direct and
not having to pay toll to the stock yards
company.
It Is thought to be the intention of the
big packing companies to get possession of
the smaller companies that can be bought
and narrow the field down as small as pos
sible. This would make a general consoli
dation much easier than under present cir
cumstances. At present Swift and Company
control Llbby, McNeil ft Llbby, the old
Chicago Packing company, the St. Joseph
stock yards and the Sioux City stock yards.
Armour and Swift are building at Pert
Worth, Tex., and they and Nelson Morris
control the East St. Louis stock yards.
The Hammonds and Cudahys control sev
eral plants. It Is believed that a general
consolidation will follow.
Considerable activity is apparent in pack
ing stocks among the buyers. During the
laat week several thousand shares of Ham
mond stock have been traded in Chicago,
and it was rumored that the buying was be
ing done in the Interest of Jhe Armours.
E. T. Robblns, manager of the Omaha
Packing company, stated that he had sold
some of his stock in the company, but
would not say to whom he had sold it.
Atauieueflts.
At the Boyd.
"Who Was to Blame?" is the conundrum
propounded by the Ferris Stock company
for Its Thursday night change of bill- at
the Boyd. The unfolding of the bill leaves
the audience somewhat In doubt aa to the
exact Identity of the culprit, responsibility
seeming to be divided among several who
blundered In the beginning from motives of
mistaken goodness or because they lacked
the courage to face the music after press
ing the button. But the cause of the suf
fering heroine is so ably presented by Miss
Grace Hayward that her auditors were in
clined to exculpate her on the ground of
mitigating circumstances and the fact that
the statute of limitations had run against
the affair anyway. Robert Blaylock gave
the thankless part of the villain, who seeks
to turn his knowleige of the original event
to his own service eighteen years after It
had occurred and threatening to expose the
penitent heroine unless she aide him in
his little scheme to marry an heiress, such
excellent interpretation as to win several
volumes of well merited hisses. His vil
lains are decidedly villainous. Others of
the company are still doing the con
scientious work that , has made them so
popular. They are nightly receiving the
encouragement of crowded bosses.
WOMAN REFUSES TO ELOPE
Has Man Who Wanted Her to Go
Away with Him
Locked I'p.
Frank Robinson, a driver for an lee com
pany, was fined $50 and costs in police
court yesterday for disorderly conduct.
Robinson got in trouble because he loved a
woman who didn't love him. During the
night Robinson went to the residence of
Mrs. Nellie Moyer, 1441 South Fourteenth
street, and Insisted on her leaving her hus
band and flying away with him. This Mrs.
Moyer refused to do snd ordered Robinson
to leave the premises. Robinson then be
came enraged, threatened to kill Mra.

he waa locked up.
