DEEP CUT IN COAST RATES
Union
Pacifio About t Dtclare Lower
Figure! from Chicago,
FIRST SHOT IN A LIVELY SKIRMISH
Thirty-Three Dollars with op-Over
Privllen-es la the Price Talked
Of Kow for the tall-
- fornla Trip.
A new passenger rate from Chicago to
California Is under consideration and very
probably will be adopted by tbe Union
Pacific which Is more than likely to create
lively skirmish among western lines.
The rate Is $33 from Chicago to California
points.
Upon the adjournment of the recent
Transcontinental association meeting at
Colorado Springs the Union Pacific pas
senger officials turned their attention to
an aggressive policy In tbe line of pas
senger transportation and the same atti
tude Is displayed by other transcontinental
lines. It became known In official circles
about that time that a low rate contest
was among the early possibilities, and It
Is said that each road there and then de
termined to be the first to lead In this
particular.
This aggression was stimulated when tbe
threatened collapse of the Immigration bu
reau was thwarted and .the affairs of the
Western Passenger association materially
strengthened by the entrance of the North
ern Pacific and the Great Northern and, as
wis Intimated at the time, strenuous
recs for business was at onre Indicated
It Is officially stated that as far as the
Union Pacific la concerned little doubt sur
rounds the formal announcement of this
rata by that road and that within a very
few days. The proposition Is to make the
schedule a continuation, tn a measure, of
the rates of last March and April, keeping
them In effect until November 1. The
rates will Involve stop-overs tn California
towns and corresponding reductions will
be arranged east of Chicago.
Women Stenographers.
The Issuance of an order by President
L. F. Lore of the Baltimore 4 Ohio pro
hibiting the employment of any more
women stenographers by that company re
rives interest in the question locally,
where it was agitated a year or two ago.
The Union Paclflo is the only headquar
ters In Omaha where female stenographers
are employed and but a limited number
arc at -work there. The Burlington head
quarters employs but one woman In the
building and she Is the "hello girl," so
that It will not need to give the matter
any attention.
"Wc have a few women stenogrsphers
and they are all right as stenographers,"
said a Union Paclflo official, "but when It
comes to a question of hiring male or fe
male stenographers the former are by far
preferable for several reasons. Often It Is
necessary for a man to be at hla office In
the evening. In which event he can readily
have his man stenographer come down, or
Be may DO late and irregular iu uia iiuuia.
When the man can be asked to fill any pos
sible breach. Always the man is better,
naturally, for emergencies than the woman,
and this should be the case. Then the man
can bs used when necessary for a clerk, and
there Is no denying the fact be grasps the
technicalities and routine of the railroad
business better than tbe members of the
fair sex. But there has never been any
order of that kind Issued from this office.
and since the agitation some time ago
acalnst hiring women I know that two
women at least have been employed as ste
nographers, and they are good workers too"
Heavy Wheat Harvest.
The Burlington reports a very heavy
wheat harvest along Its routs. On the
northern division, where the grain Is all
out, some in the stack and some threshed,
the yield ts placed at from twenty-five to
thirty-eight bushels per acre; on the south
ern division It ranges from fifteen to thirty
Ave, on the western division from thirty
five to forty and the Wyoming not less than
twenty bushels to tbe acre, while the
Cheyenne line reports a' yield from thirty
five to forty-five, the heaviest of any. Oats
re reported generally good, but on the
southern division they were so badly beaten
down by the heavy rains as to be unfit for
anything but fodder.
Scrip Bnreaa Opened.
Tha Transmlsslaslppt Exchangs Scrip
bureau, under the management of W. K.
Cundiff, has been formally established In
the Paclflo express building. It Is the pur
pose of this concern to sell tickets, by the
Issuance of scrip, cheaper than has ever
been dons before here. The standard rate
will be m cents a mile except on branch
lines In Colorado.

SHERIFF POWER GETS HOME
Pleasant Trip to Coast Enjoyed
to
tho Utmost by tha
Officer.
Sheriff John Power has returned from his
two weeks' stay. In California, wiiere he
saw everything from the Golden Gats and
the Sutro batha to the sunset of Robert
Fttzslmmons, the mutilation of James Jet
fries' face and tbe somber Interior of the
state penitentiary. Hs rambled about the
ahipyards, too, having secured special
courtesy through his former partner in ths
cooperage business, who now has a contract
for that line of work for the new ships that
ars being built In tbs yarda there. Tbe
sheriff declares that ths prize fight waa no
fake and adds that no one ot ths thousands
who sat at ths ringside seemed to consider
It so or to regret the $20, $15, $10 or $5 that
had been Invested In a aeat. There wasn't
a hiss, he says, and only exclamations at
the wonderful showing Fltzslmmons made.
Sheriff Power brought back with him Leo
F. Jordan, aged 22. who was married to
Florence Smith, aged 18, In the county jail
