I lrp.i..fa f. fit T I 6 I i f ' I nCNE FARE AND A THIRD IS PROBABLE Imr Preeaatlea Wilt Be Take Prevent Retarm Eaia af Tickets rallies; lata the Rands at Semi were. te General Passenger Agnt John Francis of the B. ie it. ha returned from a two eek visit to Chicago, where ha haa been familiarising himself with alt the phases of the Elkln law and with the proposed rate to the Eu Louis fair. Speaking of tho latter, he said: "No positive step has been taken by the roads ta regard, to the rates that will ob tain during the fair, bat things have so shaped themselves In the last month as to make It a certainty that reduced rates will be given. "First, the Injunction against scalpers handling the return ends of tickets sold In connection with tho exposition has been made permanent. During tho Chicago fair tho scalpers, through their manipula tion and handling of these stubs, made havoc with tho regular passenger business. Passenger tariffs were demoralised br these return portions. To make It doubly sure that nothing of this sort would obtain dar ing the St. Louis fair a bill has been passed by the Missouri legislature which practically denies the ticket scalpers the light to do business In the state.' and the city council Is now contemplating similar action in tho matter. "Tho giving of rates for the Chicago fair I was an experiment. Nothing of so great cop had aver been taken np by the rati roads before and soma mistakes were an doubtedly made. But it was an experiment. and now we all know what we are doing. Probably a rata of a fare and a third, with reasonable return limits, will be given dor Ing the time of the lt. Louis fair. Then there will be better rates given from time to time for special days and during portions of tho fair. Of course, I do not know any thing deficit about It. but that is my opin ion and Is about right. Ths roads Interested mostly In tho St. Louis fair rates are meeting In 8t. Louis today to discuss the rate proposition and what they decide will probably hold good dcuisg the fair unless the different roaJs get to fighting for the business. The current Issue of the Railway Age. published under data of March 20, Is ths I annual engineering number.

By this move the Reck Island, or the Greater Rock Island ae It probably will be called, will become the dominant railroad in the south west. South from Kansas City the states of Mis souri. Oklahoma. Indian Territory. Arkaa sas and Texas will be gridironed with the track ef the near system. The Roek Island will have 14,000 miles of Its own track and X.&00 mile of track be longing to the Mexican Central under Its complete control, making a total of almost 11.000 mile In the system. It will run trains over Its own tracks from Chicago to Omaha and Denver, to Bt. Louis. Memphis, Hot 8prings. Ark.. Kansas City, El Paao, Galveston and Mexico City, The Rock Island also bought a half Interest In ths Houston Texas Central, which glvee It a line from central Texas to Oaiveston and oaa to Nsw Orleans. Two line will be given the company Into Mexico and to Mex ico City as soon a the line from Brady to Spefford. Tex., now bulMlng by the 'Frisco, I completed. It Is probable that President William B. Leeds of the Rock Island will be succeeded by President Yoakum of the 'Frisco upon the consummation ef the deal. During the entire time that the deal haa been working eat President Toakum has held the upper hand, and It was through him that the Rock Island was forced to buy o"t the 'Frisco entire, giving 40 per cent of Rock Island preferred sad 0 per cent of Rock Islsnd common la addition to $30 a shars for all of the 127,000,000 ef common stock of the 'Frisco.

LITTLE INTEREST II CITY ELECTION Neither City Ceaaell Ser Boer 4 ef Feeratlea la Able te Celled ta,ra for Tkelr Meet-lacs. An effort Is being made by republicans to Induce P. S. Casey to remain the candidate for tax commissioner. Last night Mr. Ca-y stated to a Bee reporter that he stood by what he said on Sunday. He ad mitted that a large number of hla friends had called upon him to accept the nomina tion tendered. Late last night it waa re ported on ths streets that Casey was wsver Ing a little and It was thought tbst his supporters would finally Induce him to msks the rsce. A friend of Casey said last night thst in the event the nominee would not permit his came to go on the ballot ample time would be given the committee In which to fill the vacancy. Very little Interest seems to be tskea In the coming election and consequently can didates sre not msklng sny effort Just now to secure votes. Republicans ssy that It Casey will accept the nomination he em win hands down, as be Is considered a popular man. As for the rest of the republican ticket there seema to be no diubt about thst, ss the nominees sre all considered first-class business men. Of course all Interest centers on the tax com- mlsaloner and the republicans think thst If Casey ta elected the valuation will be re corded en tfie tax books according to tho law laid down for the government of all tax collectors. o Qaorasa Preseat. When the roll was called at the council meeting last night it was found thst there wss no quorum. An sdjournment for one week wsa taken. It wss expected thst at last night's meeting a number of important grading ordinances would be passed, ss they hsd gone through the necessary committee hands and the second reading. It was also expected thst the msyor would announce his decision on the stock Inspection ordi nance. There will be a meeting a week from last night and it Is possible tbst a special meeting may be called about the middle of the week to consider some mat ters of Importance which will come up within the next day or two. Another Cradle Petition. J A petition has been presented to the city engineer asking for the grading of Nine teenth street from O to P streets. Should this work be done It will necessitate the removal of about 7,000 yards of dirt at a cost of not more then t50 to the property owners who hsve petitioned. The petition la now being Inspected by the city attorney and will be sent to the city council at the next meeting. Flke Waats Data. J. M. Flke of Phoenix. Arts.. Is looking for Information about the municipal owner ship of wster works. He wrttes City Clerk Bnrigley asking for Information on the sub ject. In reply Mr. Shrlgiey stated that South Omaha received its water supply from Omaha and suggested that the au thorities at Phoenix correspond with City Engineer Rosewater of Otuaha. Only Three Preseat. Only three members of -the Board ef Education showed up Isst night and con sequently no business was .transacted, aa no quorum waa present. It was reported that the members had aome sort of a mis understanding about the date. If thla is true It may account for a lack of a quorum. Members of the board In the city said last night after adjournment that there wss little business of Importance on hand, con sequently public interests would not suffer on account of the failure of the board to meet. Aa Inaevatloa at Tarda. Yesterday, shortly after the noon hour, Rev. James Wise, rector of t. Martin's Episcopal cnurcn. Twenty-rourtn ana J streets, held services in the lobby of the new exchange building at the stock yards. Ths services lasted for fifteen minutes and were well attended, ss the galleries and the floor space surrounding the preacher were filled with interested persons. It Is understood that for a week or more Rev. Mr. Wise and his associates In mission work will hold short services at the ex change each day. The services yesterday seemed to be greatly appreciated. Street Car Service. Since the placing of the switch at Thirty-third and Q streets all ears for sev eral hours, both morning and evening, cross the viaduct. All trains from Omaha be tween a. m. and I a. m. run as far aa Thirty-third and Q streets, while regular trains run to the end of the line. In the evening from 4 to 7 o'clock all trains cross the bridge. In this wsy the officials of the street car company hope to prevent con gestion of the car dnrtng the buay hours. Those employed in the packing houses are greatly pleased at the change in the time schedule. Dae Fiscal Aareaey. On April 1 there will be due at the state fiscal agency the sum of $1.6iT.10. This amount will pay Intereat on grading bonda and also take up cotipona on general in debtsdness bonds. On secount of the elow psy on ths part oi property owners in some of the grading districts the city will have to borrow a little money to meet this obli gation, but the loan will be a short time one and the Interest will not amount to much. Ons thing Mayor Koutaky la doing is keeping up the city's credit at the fiscal agency and with bondholders in ths east The obllgstlocs due on April 1 will be ms: promptly by ths city treasurer. Eva May Clark.' Little Eva May Clark, aged t years, who was supposed to have been kidnaped by Harry Crave yeaterday afternoon from her home at Taenty-elghth and I streets, turned up for dinner all right. It appears thst ths girl went after some candy and on boarding a car for home fell asleep, and as Graves, who had been rooming at ths house, went with the girl, the mother feared a kidnaping case and notified the police. When the girl reached the end of the line she was awakened and the street csr authorities returned her to her horns. Craves had not been with her and detec tives who Investigated say that Crave know nothing about tb escapade. Maale City fieaal).

Ister sssured for April 1. the Cspltot ave nue market house will not be ready for occupancy before April 15. according to Building Inspector Carter. The brick work has been finished, but the roof is not en nor the Interior finishing begun. The stalls are yet -to be constructed and while there Is a good-slxed force of men at work. It Is esti mated thst It will tske tbm three weeks to complete the Job. I'ntll thst time the retail merket gsrdeners hsve no legalised place to sell their good. While a whole sale market place is being arranged at Tweirth and Jackson streets. It is to the new Capitol avenue building that the re tailers r expected to go. Msny Inquiries sre being received in the city engineering and Board of Public Work offices as to when the Capitol avenue mar ket house Is to be finished end when the stalls will be auctioned off. Assistant City Engineer Craig says: "It looks ss though there will be a good demand for the stalls. Judging from the number of Inquiries we have received. Not a day goes by but a few market gardeners telephone In and ask how soon they csn obtstn stal'.a In the new mart. They, of course, wsnt to be on the ground early, but I do not think they will lose much business If they csn stsrt April 15. The Interest shown by the mer ket gsrdeners is encoursging snd it appears thst with proper msnsgement the market house should psy for itself within e few years." MUMAUGH AND HIS CITY JOB Sot Fereed Owt by Mayer's Order, kat Reela-aed fer Better Piece. The sfstement In the World-Hersld Sat urday afternoon that S. H. Mumaugh. who committed suicide at the Thurston hotel, hsd been compelled to gtve up a Job In the city engineer's office because Msyor Mcores had ao ordered has caused a good deal of indignation around the cltyhatl. It wae further stated that Mumaugh was supposed to hsve ended his life because he could not obtain employment. An officer of the pub lic worka department said yesterday: The facts concerning Mumaugh are these. He wss employed ss sewer Inspector, and when that class of work cessed he resigned. showing letters thst promised him a good Job in California. The place was with an engineering party surveying for a railroad and was to pay 1100 a month. Mumaugh was conaldered an excellent workman and waa given a first-class letter by City En gineer Rosewater. He was not fnrced out of his place In any way, but resigned of his own accord. Later when the California Job fell through Mayor Moores took It upon himself to Induce Governor Mickey to give Mumaugh a Job as guard t the peniten tiary. Instead of trying to cut him off without work the mayor was trying to help him. The brother of the dead man who knows the circumstances, stands ready, I understand, to sign any kind of a letter exonerating the city officers from the msyor down from the charges made in the World- Herald. These statements were for political capital nothing more or less." ORGANIZED LABOR ' AFFAIRS Candidate for Otseea ef tke Omaha TypesjrapkJeal Calea Are . Getting? Bear.
