THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1904. V . I FREIGHT RATES- IN BALANCE ft fu Likely Ut Besnlt from Present Bngtr -' Tariff Condi lions..-. V CHICAGO CONFERENCE NOT CONCLUSIVE l.oeal Railroad Men'" AfprfheiilT that a General Onslnaant Will Crow'oat mt Fallarc la A JnsI lie Srhednles. ;' ' ' ' -' ' One of the fiercest rate wers In recent yesrs la Imminent. The stnse of tprtlon Just now la at Chicago where a meeting la being held with a view of bringing order out of the disturbed conditions. The light aa yet hinges epon the suirar tarW and the rata for cariqed good, 'but If harmony li not restored the flght promises to extend to other line .'of . goods.. While the Ms.1 lory llnea are held responsible for the pres ent demoralized condltldn ef the sugar tar iff, back of It all Is the Grand Trunk Line association, which Is charged with. vio lating the tariff on canned goods. The shading of the tariffs. It Is said, began with the Import traffic and has gradually extended to domestic shipments. The cutting ha been' done secretly and has been going on for some time until now the situation 1 regarded very serious The meeting Mow being held at Chicago Is one of several which have been ar ranged In the last few weeks to under take the almost hopeless task of straight ening mit the muddle. ' 1.00k far. Fart tier Tronble. Local officials are' of the opinion that the end la not yet In sight. -.The fact that the Chicago sessions are so prolonged without reaching an understanding Is taken as conclusive evidence that the crisis has not been reached and there Is no prospect that It will be. - . . . Tha situation with regard to the rate on canned gopds seems tc be as bad If not worse than that for sugar. There Is not even a pretense of maintaining rates on this commodity, so intense is the competi tion. Ona . Instance la noted where the rate of 27 cents has been cut S cents from Chicago, to the Missouri river, and there Is a prospect that the rate will go stlU lower. - "While a great deal of the blame Is thrdwn on the Matlory lines, It is be Meved that the mischief commenced with the Canadian roads. The canned goods shlpmenta " have been unusually heavy owing to' the fact that eastern brokers have waited until the last minute before shipping. . " Through from nasals to Omaha. Eight through' tickets from points in Russia to Omaha were sold by the Rock Island Wednesday and brought out the faot that there is a general exodus from that country to America. The movement has been aggravated by the war In the far east. There is a sentiment in Russia that before the war la over even those males may be conscripted Into service who have already put In is three years of enforced mili tary life necessary In Russia. One of the peculiar features of the con tracts agreed to by the transportation company la that the passenger shall ' re ceive '$20 In . American money before he leaves the ship'. The amount Is sufficient to Insure him entrance Into this country, and saves hlrrt from bumping against the provisions of the Immigration laws. t Four large coupons have to be made out.' One is the' purchaser's receipt for the ticket. Another fprnt fs kept by the rallrorfd com pany, a third form Is sent to the steamship line, and the fourth Is mailed to the pas- scnger. . ' . Aa soon aa the steamship line receives the coupon It notifies the passenger on what day he may say, Ttieftotlce Accompanied by a raJlria'd ticket for the nearest port and gives implicit. Instructions as to which train he must ' take. The passenger must take that trajri and no other. .Representa tives of the steamship company meet him at the station. - He cart sail only on the steamer provided. by the ateamship com pany. - At New York the passenger re ceives the 120 and a railroad ticket. If he Is 'coming to Omaha he may . get here In three days, and It . may take ten days, ac cording to the line he la sent over by the passenger association, which, divides the business. . Passenger Agents' Convention. Several Important questions are to be taken up at the annual convention of the passenger and ticket agents at Old Point Comfort, Va. The coast delegation has al ready started, but It Is unlikely that Omaha will be represented at the meeting. While the work of the convention is not legisla tive, recommendations are made which are taken up fcy representative railroad bodies r and acted on. . .A great many remedies have ' been brought about In this way; A question uppermost lust now Is that of adopting, safety paper, similar to that used by the government, for printing tickets. .The Idea , waa suggested by the American Association of Passenger Agents . soma years ago. Complicated forms of tickets have been Isaued, but each year counter feiters of railroad tickets are becoming more expert in their work and bogus tick ets are becoming more difficult, of detection. The qucstldh of a uniform .ticket to be 'used by all the roads of the country Is also to be brought up and the adoption of suoh a plan la to be urged with, all vigor.' A uniform method in granting stopovers will be recommended. The present trouble lis regarding the question of whether there shall be stopovers on the return portion of the tickets giving ten days,, regardless of the final transit limit of the ticket The abolition of Sunday excursions will be a subject of discussion. Some of the roads 'have acted Individually In the: matter and have decided to run no excursions, except- Sw'f (J ! . XL'S THE TRUE NATURAL LAXATIVE WATER.. ron C0.ISTIP.TI0H. '.

Swsunpee. with Wheat. An effort Is being made by the northwest em roads to move 40,000,000 bushels of wheat eastwsrd, but nearly all the lines are in undated with grain. Cars are being hur ried west aa fast as they can be secured, but the supply la not equal to the demand. The movement was unexpected by the Union Pacific, although It was understood that the crop In Oregon would be larger than usual. The Oregon Railway A Nav igation road is said to be swamped. The situation Is worse than two years ago, when the congestion occurred over the Im mense shipment of live stock and sheep. Railway otes nnd Personals. . O. W. Holdrege, general manager of the Burlington, has gone to St. Louis, accom panied by his family. J. E. Kelby. assistant general solicitor of the Uurllngton, has returned from Wash ington, D. C, and New York. The office of assistant second vice presi dent of the Illinois Central has ten abol ished with the resignation of A. W. Sulli van. W. 1 Smith has been appointed as sistant to Second Vice President J. T. Harahan. A railroad man said yesterday that the present rate of 13 to Minneapolis Is not without precedent. Years ago a rate war was started, which resulted in a $5 fare to California common polnta and return. The distance to Minneapolis Is about 360 miles. The California trip meant a ride of over 1,800 miles. ' HE'S OFF THE POLICE FORCE Former Member of Chicago's "Finest" Charged with Vagrancy In Omaha. "How the mighty have fallen," said a police court official when William Corrigan, arrested on the charge of vagrancy, was arraigned before Police Judge Berks. "What. do you do for a living?" asked the police magistrate of the prisoner, who stood at the .bar like a tower of strength and physical manhood. 'Well, Judge, I'll tell' you- I. was on the Chicago police force and was mentioned for meritorious services, but but I got off the force some way," replied Corrigan, his voice faltering toward the lost. Corrigan showed a pair of calloused hands as evidence of recent work not on the po lice force, but In the wide, wide world so the judge discharged him. TWO S1QANTIO .CLOTHISQ STOCKS. J.

LEE AND DRDMMY IN A CLASH Oity Prosecutor and Detsotirs Ests Hot Words in Court. PETTY LARCENY CASE STARTS THE ROW Dnnnr Aeeases Lee f Trying Dlseomsnod Witnesses 'ana the Argnntent Reaches n Di -clden'Iy W arm Stage. The trial of a prisoner charged with petit larceny, who appeared In police court with the stolen goods on his back, caused quite a little commotion and a sharp tilt between the city prosecutor snd ona of the detectives before Judge Berka yesterday morning. Daniel J. Smith was arraigned on complaint of Dr. R. F. Pries ot U21 Charles street who charged the prisoner with having stolen wearing apparel and a valuable ring. Detective Drummy fancied that Prosecutor Lee Intended to postpone the case and thus discommode the wit nesses, and out of this grew the fuss. Week before last Dr. Pries advertised for a man to cut gross snd do other odd jobs around the place. Smith applied and was given work. He worked all day a week ago Saturday and returned on the following Monday. Mrs. Pries being In Chicago and the doctor having to attend to his business. Smith was given more or less liberty about the place, painting floors and doing other Inside work. The stranger told Dr. Pries a hard luck story ot his deportation from Cripple Creek during the labor troubles there and the doctor says he gave the man two old suits to give him a start Hal th Ooeds On. When Smith left Dr. Pries says he missed among other things a ring of the value ot 115. He suspected Smith and his arrest was accomplished Tuesday evening by the de tectives. Dr. Pries called at the police station to Identify and queetlon his recent employe, who denied any knowledge of the ring and at first of any other articles claimed to have been stolen by the doctor. "Where did you get that collar?" asked Dr. Pries. "I got that in Cripple Creek," responded the miner. "But It has my nam written In Ink; It is mine," rejoined the man of medicine. The prisoner hung his head in silence. Then Dr. Pries examined the man's un derwear and showed that his name was also on those garments, and even to the socks Smith waa wearing the apparel of his benefactor. But yet he stoutly denied steal ing the ring. Lee and Drammj In Tilt. Smith's arraignment before Police Judge Berka precipitated a tilt between City Prosecutor Lee and Detective Drummy. Pries had Just sworn to the complaint against Smith before the police magistrate when Detective Drummy asked the city prosecutor If the case could not be dis posed of then, as two detectives and the doctor were being detained from other du ties and as the man had the stolen goods on his person the detective suggested the strength of the case. "Well, don't butt in; we will get around to It after awhile," responded the city prosecutor. Noticing the temper wlth'whlch the wordt were spoken Dr. Pries left the court room and started up the street At this Prose cutor Lee asked If the doctor had gone. Detective Drummy Said he had. "Well, 1 11 Just dismiss the case," said Prosecutor Lee. "And then I will re-arrest Smith as fast as you dismiss the case," responded De tective Drummy. ... "And ' then I'll have you before th board," said Lee. "Well, that will be all right, but I'll re arrest thatNman just as often as you dis miss the case, as he haa the stolen goods right on him," replied Drummy. In the meanwhile Detective Maloney went after Pries and Induced him to return to court and prosecute the case. Smith was then arraigned and promptly sentenced to thirty days.
