UP AGAINST THE MIGHTY BEEF TRUST
Statement of Mercllen Grup ne
frlgrerator Owners Have oa
Those Who Mast Patronise
Their Servlee.
Trie name of J. W. Mldgle'y ef Chicago
Is one to conjure with among the owners
of private car lines. Mr. Mldgley for some
time has been conducting what Is termed
a car mileage bureau, and it has been his
business to. Inquire tnto the methods of
operating these lines by what is commonly
termed the "beef trust" Mr. Mldgley Is
Bald to be In the employ of E. II. Harriman,
J. J. Hill and J. P. Morgan, rnd his duties
are to show these gentlemen various ways
In which expenses of oonductng their rail
roads may be reduced.
It has long been known among railroad
men that ths private ear line is one of the
greatest "grafts" known to the railroad
worul fur transferring the funds of ths
roads to the pockets of the beef trust. A
number of these lines are in existence and
the Income from them is enormous. The
owners of these private lines get what is
termed mileage from the owners of the
cars for the use of the equipment. This
mileage amounts to three-quarters of a
cent per mile on freezers or flrst-class beef
cars. A number of the western roads pay
as high a rate as 1 cent per mile on
freezers; that Is. thexe rates are paid for
each mile the car runs both ways over the
lines of the various companies and Is paid
by the Individual company over whoee line
the car travels. For Instance, If a car is
loaded from Omaha to New Tork with beef
the railroad companies over which it
travels pay three-quarters of a cent per
wile for every mile it runs to New Tork
and the same rats on the return trip.
Owing to the fact that the car must be
returned to the shipper in Omaha without
delay It Is rarely loaded upon the return
trip and therefore the company realises no

freight charges, consequently the roads
over which It Is returned are in the posi
tion of paying mileage back on an empty
car which It Is in addition a bill of expense
to haul.
Could Save Return Mtleaar.
Now, It Is figured that If the railroads
owned their own refrigerator equipment
this return mileage would be saved to
them and in addition to that the loaded
mileage could be cut down to a great ex
tent. In fact, the mileage rate which is
paid by one road to another is not nearly
so high as that paid to owners of beef trust
cars. It 'has been said that the railroads
do not desire a change In the plan of
handling and paying for private equipment,
for the reason that it Is a very .safe way
In which to make rebates of freight to
heavy shippers and at the same time make
these rebates appear lawful. But It la
understood that under the surface the lead
ing railroad men of the east are quietly
gathering data with which to confront ths
private car line owners in the near future,
this data to be used as an argument why
the rates now paid should be lowered.
The net Income of one or the great Chi
cago packers from his refrigerator line Is
on an average of about $26 per car per
month. This would make the net income
from each car per year $300. Of .course the
monthly Income varies according, to the
number of miles traveled by the car, but It
ranges from aa low as $17 to" as high as
$45, and the average monthly for the whole
number of cars, about 1,000. would be
about $2. These cars when new cost this
owner from $725 to $1,126, according to the
state of the material market when the
cars were contracted for. He has been
adding to his equipment year by year, con
sequently the variation In the cost per
car. Figuring the average cost at $1,000.
which Is quite high. It will be seen that yils
private line Is paying about SO per cent on
tho investment.
These figures will apply as well to all
private lines In the country Including thoseJ
which are operated from South Omaha.
These facts are known to the owners of
railroads, hence their Interest In tho matter.
Monopoly oa Pratt Cars.
The above figures are easy, however,
when compared to those of the earnings
of ths transcontinental fruit lines. Two
packers. Bwlft and Armour, own practi
cally all the fruit refrigerators In this
country. All of the fruit hauled from Cali
fornia to the east Is loaded In these cars
and ths ears are operated under contracts
with the western railroads.
For the use of one of these cars In haul
Ir.g a load of fruit from California to Chi
cago the owner of the car reorlvea from the
railroads over which It passes 1 cent per
mile in most cases, but never, less than
three-fourths of a cent. This rate is paid
both ways by the railroads and amounts
for the round trip from California to Chi
cago to about $50 per car. 'In addition to
this the shipper of the fruit pays what la
known as the refrigeration charge, which
amounts to $90 per car from California to
Chicago, and $115 per car If the shipment
goes east ef Chicago, This refrigeration
charge la for I ring and caring for shipment
of fruity while en lis long Journey to the
east. Trie fruit shlppurs have .been trying
for years to get these private oar line own
ers to reduce the refrigeration eharge, but
they have steadily refused to make any
reduction, saying the charge was as low
as they could handle the business.
In Icing transcontinental shipments for
other packers, which shipments oonsist of
beef and other meats going from Chicago
to the Paclfta coast. Armour and Bwlft
charge competitors In tho packing; bualnnas
$L5 per oar for the service, which to $75
VdM thaa the fruit shipper pays for the
same servlco.
tt It M s, Wk 4a li fruit
shippers build a car line of their own?"
The reason la given by a South Omaha
man that It would require all the car
shops which are equipped for building re
frigerators two or three years to turn out
a sufficient number of cars In addition to
their other business, to handle the fruit
business from the coast.
"If a fruit grower should make the mis
take of placing an order for a number of
refrigerators he would be refused the use
of the private line cars and after he suc
ceeded In getting his equipment he would
still be short icing facilities' along the linen
of railroad and through their great influ
ence with the western roads the packers
would see to it that his cars wero de
layed In transit, and that no icing stations
were' established,"' says the gentleman.
The western railroads are not anxious to
enter Into a fight against the private line
owner because they are getting. their reg
ular rate of freight out of tho shipments
and If Swift and Armour pulled off their
equipment the roads would be without any
thing to haul the fruit In and consequently
would be out their freight for a couple
of years while they were getting equip
ment built to handle It."
Two years ago the Atchison gavo It out
that contracts with the private car lines
would not be renewed by that rood, but
when the matter was' laid before the
Atchison officials In the proper manner by
the representatives of the private lines,
the management soon retracted the state
ment and the contract was again renewed
by the Atchison with the contingent priv
ilege of a renewal for two years longer
when the contract ran out, provided the
private car lines wished such renewal.
Inoonie from These Cars.
The Income from these private car lines
may be estimated in a rough way when it
is stated that Armour owns at present
about 18,000 cars and Bwlft about 6,000. Tho
Cudkhy Packing- company In South Omaha
has about 1,000. It requires about thirty
days for one of these cars to make ths
round trip from California to Chicago.
This year it Is estimated there will be
30,000 cars of oranges shipped from Cali
fornia to the east, all of which will go In
Bwlft and Armour cars, with possibly a
few exceptions. This Is of oranges alone
and does not Include several thousand cars
of other fruits which probably will bring
the total up to over 60,000 cars. Every
orange or plum eaten in the east pays
tribute to these two packers.
But It Is said that this great "graft" of
modern business Is about to enter upon a
decline. It has been called to the atten
tion of Moesrs. Harriman, Hill and Mor
gan, by their faithful lieutenant, Mr.
Mldgley, and it la believed they have de
cided they need the money and will de
vise ways and means to get it, or a por

AFTER AMERICAN ' DENTISTS
Proseeatrd In Germany for lain a the
-Word "Doctor" on Their
Doer Flatea. -
(Copyright. 1904. by Press Publishing Co.)
UKKLIN. Feb. 27. tNew Tork World
Cablegram Special Telegram. ) The
highest court of appeal In the German
empire has bean busy with the case
of three American dentist. resident
In Dresden, who wero indicted for using
the title "Dr. Dent Burg." or "Dr. Chlr.
Dent" after their names on tho door pi ale.
The German dentists In Dresden contended
that the appearanoe of the title "Dr.". con
veyed a falao impression. Dr. Hendrlck
and his two American colleagues
provod they got their degree from
school of American dental surgery, but
the court bold that the Americans were not
entitled to use the title "Doctor" and their
use of It would be deceptive and that if
they Borslat la unlac U limy, must be
BunUlinrt.
In these days of "war and rumors of
war" the feeding of armies Is a matter of
more or less Interest. In none of the
armies of the civilized nations has the
question of subsistence reached a higher
degree of perfection than in the United
States.
A well fed soldier is an Invincible one.
A full stomach, and ths certainty that It
will be kept full under nearly every emerg
ency, contributes to his bravery, disci
pline and health.
An article recently appeared In The Bee
describing the rationing of armies, but It
did not give tho original source of supplies
nor the method by which these supplies
were furnished the armies In field or gar
rlson. The question Is one susceptible of
great elaboration, especially In view of
the modern methods of feeding armies. It
will be observed from the dally, press that
army food supplies are being constantly
shipped from the shores of the United
States to nearly every civilized army of
the globe. This is especially true of the
Russo-Japanese war. These foreign food
supplies are furnished by private. contract
from the great packing and other food
stuff houses of the United States, and the
process is not materially different from
the plans by which these supplies are furn
ished the United States army.
Bought in Open Market.
All subsistence supplies for the use of the
United States army are booght In the often
market through a system of competitive
bidding by the purchasing or chief commis
saries of subsistence and of the several
military departments. All stores must be
delivered at the subsistence warehouses,
though proposals for flour delivered free
on board cars at place of manufacture will
be considered. Preference always Is given
to articles of domestic production.
Such, In brief,' is the method adopted by
the general government In providing food
for Its army In time of peace, nor Is the
method esssentlally different in times of
war. It Is the aim of the general govern
ment to keep from- one to three months'
subsistence supplies on hand at the sub
sistence warehouses and hence the con
tracts for supplies must be made quar
terly. The posts of the different depart
ments are supplied upon requisition from
the subsistence warehouses, and In a great
department like the Department of the
Missouri, with its eleven big military poets,
there is an army of 10.000 men to feed, and
all of the supplies, with a few exceptions,
are first. assembled here In Omaha.
Volnme t tho Bids.
Ths last proposals for bids for supplies
for the Department of the Missouri for
the ensuing quarter called for 165,000 pounds
of flour, 56,700 pounds of sugar, l&JOO pounds
of coffee and 30,000 pounds of bacon. These,
however, represented but a tithe of the
articles called for, which embraced every
thing In tho grocery and general supplies
lines. AU of these supplies are now In tho
subsistence warehouse here in Omaha, or
shortly will be and already are being drawn
upon by the various posts of the depart
ment as their needs require. The supplies
are shipped from hero by rail to tho posts.
as ail but & ot ths mllUay osta of this J
department are on railway lines, tho ex
ception being Fort Washakie, Wyo., located
near Lander. Tho nearest railway point
to Lander being, thirty-three miles, the
supplies must be freighted from there to
Washakie In wagons
At military posts remote from packing
house centers fresh beef supplies generally
are furnished by looal contractors, though
the contract roust be made with the chief
commissary of the department In .Omaha.
The other posts available to tho packing
house centers are supplied with fresh beef
from the packing houses under their con
tracts, Just as all other supplies aro fur
nished and shipped.
Purchase of Vegetables.
Post commissaries are permitted to buy
fresh vegetables In the open markets ad
jacent the military posts for Issuance to
the troops at their posts and It often occurs
that well cared for post gardens supply all
oC.theae necessities.
Forty years ago ths bulk of the freighting
across the plains was the carrying of com
missary and quartermaster's supplies from
Fort Leavenworth and other points along
the Missouri river to tho forts located
throughout the west. It was a long, tedious
process and the supplies usually reached
their destinations In a deplorable state,
from being saturated with rains or dried
out by the torrid heat ot the summer. But
little fresh beef was furnished the posts,
as game was abundant and hunting parties
were Invariably a part of the commissary
supply department. In the shortage of
buffalo, bear, -elk or deer meat which was
not Infrequent, mule meat was resorted to
with no particular delight, but as a matter
of necessity, when the mule could be
spared.
With the advent of tho railway supplies
were received at the posts more regularly
and those posts remote from the railways
were soon abandoned and new establish
ments were built nearer the railway . lines.
Supplies for tho Philippines.
Nearly all the, supplies for the Depart
ment of the Philippines are shipped from
San Francisco to the grelt subsistence
warehouses at Manila and redistributed to
the army stations from there. Some sup
plies for the Philippines are shipped from
the Atlantic coat states, but the bulk of
them go from the Paclflo coast. Borne ar
ticles that can be bought In the Philippines,
such as rice and fresh fruits aro purchased
there for Issue to the troops.
That portion of the American army lo
cated In Porto Rico Is furnished In a like
manner from the Atlantic coast depots.
there being spacious subsistence ware
houses at Ban Juan, from which the Issue
Is distributed to the smaller posts and de
partments. At most of the military posts are cold
storage appliances to keep the supplies in
a perfect condition, and no food is per
mitted to be Issued to the troops until Its
health fulness Is first determined by com
petent Inspectors In the employ of the
government. The stores are shipped In re
frigerator cars from the subsistence ware
houses to the posts and when transported
across the ocean are stored In refrigerator
appliances.
With the advent of the condensed ration,
and canned meats as part of the ration, the
soldier can now carry ten to twenty days'
food Id his haversack while on the march,
where In the old days three or five days'
food was the limit
In brief, the condition of the American
soldier today, as compared with that of
thirty-five and forty years ago, Is as differ
snt'as day. from night. He is fed better,
clothed better, armed better, Tiid better
and treated better.
WOMAN DENTIST CAPTIVATES
Gael to Ehirope for Pleasure and Is
t'rged to stay for
Business.
(Copyright, 1904, by Press Publishing Co,)
MONTE CARLO, Feb. . (New York
World Cablegrasn Special Telegram.) The
American colony here has been busy the
last week paying court to Dr. Carrie Wolfs
bruck, the pioneer woman dentist of New
Tork. She la a remarkably handsome
young woman and at all dinners and recep
tions attended by American visitors she Is
the center of attraction. Even English so
ciety here has been captivated by the
pretty little dentist's charms and many
leaders have been consulting her profes
sionally and urging- her to turn her atten
tion to the practice of dentistry In London.
There, they say, she would surely win ths
favor of the nobility and speedily make a
fortune. Such a thing as a woman dentist
has never been heard of on the continent
of Europe until the advent of Dr. Wolfs
bruck, but people seem none the less will
ing to welcome her. - She Insists that she
came over for a pleasure trip and wants
to forget her profession until she returns
to New Tork, but she has dozens of colls
every day and could have a luceratlvs
practice among the notable people if she
would consent to abandon her pursuit of
pleasure.
She has made an extensive tour, having
visited Madeira, Algiers, Rome, Nice and
many other cities. She expects to lears
