RUMOR FLOATING ABOUT SOMETIME General IHanaaer of Inlon Tarlfla Vratirri the Opinio that the Report Is WHhoat Authorities. st.. report from Kansas City tells of ft lie proposed line to be built from the Burlington lines In Nebraska to Join with the Denver. Enid & Oulf In Oklahoma. This line IK said to be to connect the north lines of the Harrlman system with the southern lines and still the report says that it is to connect 'with the Burlington lines. . When General Manager Mohler of the Union raclflc was asked concerning the line he sold: "I read of that proposed line In the Chicago papers Tuesday evening and, while I know that some such line has been projected for sometime, I personally think there le nothing In it. If I was asked to express an opinion concerning It I would ay there Is nothing in ." Ta Offset Another War. To prevent a repetition of the slaughter ing of grain rates which was experienced last year, the traffic ofBclrvls of the western, eastern and gulf roads are meeting In Chi cago this week. Last year the grain was moved without much profit to anyone, and as thla year's crop is sure to be a bumper, the railroad traffic managers are striving to get together to ee If they cannot make a little money for the railroads on the business. Last year the Missouri Paclfia made a through rate from Omaha to for eign ports, so there was nothing to show what division was made of the rate and what per cent the railroad company re ceived. The grain came In so fast that the road could not handle It and at one time the Burlington was asked to handle 8X) cars between Omaha and Kansas City to help out of the difficulty, It Was thought the share of the Missouri Pacific was about It or 11 cents. The rate la now 18 cents to the gulf, and the managers will strive to maintain that rate. Railway Notes and Personals. A tourist car Is run each Saturday night ffom Omaha to Clear Lake over the Chi cago Great Western. James W. Alexander, former president of the Equitable, will pasa through Omaha on the morning of August 24 ivi a private car with a party 6f ten, en route to the west over the Unlun Pacific, Motor ear No. 1 of the Union Pacific will be put into regular service August 26 between Kearney and Callaway, nlxly flve miles. The car is being repaired at the shops at Grand Island and will be given a good trial a regular aervice. Tho Chicago Great Western will run a special excursion next Saturday from Omaha to Clear Lake for 13 for the round trip. The . train will leave at 7:40 In the morning and the tickets will be good re turning until the following Monday. J. W. Thurtle, traveling passenger agent Of the Union Pacific with heiidiiuarters at Des Moines, Is in the city after a roundup of the Iowa Grand Army ft the Republic business for the Milwaukee and Union. Pa cific. The special Milwaukee train will cross Iowa September 1 and will consist of twelve sleepers, two chair cars and a bag gage car. The train will . go direct to Cheyenne and permit the tourist to partake In the Frontier day festivities at that place and then will run on to Denver. The South Dakota delegation will Join at Omaha, and the Iowa section Is going out two days ahead of the regular business to avoid the crush of travel. Next Monday will be Burlington night at the Den and emissaries of the Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben and of the Burlington road arc out on the line working up the big excursion of the season. Special Are will be provided at the Den and the boys from the South Platte country will be shown a warm time.

The tickets are good returning any time the next day. PAYING MATERIAL IS SCARCE i Shortage Has Not Yet, hat Threatens Delay Work by the City. Shortage of materials, especially crushed tone, threatens to delay paving and side walk work in Omaha. Band and brick are the other thing necessary to construct ing that are hard to get owing to the im mense amount of building In the city. The Barber Asphalt company, which will not be hampered so much by the shortage of stone, .because it uses mostly slag from tne smelter in itsi paving bases, will start, work on numerous 'Omaha contracts Fri day. Expert paving gangs and apparatus are on the way from Marshalltown and other parts of Iowa and If arrangements go well operations will push off on Twenty sixth street between Capitol avenue and Chicago street." Laborers for paving work can be had with littut difnculty in Omaha, but ex perts are scarce. John Grant had to send to the eastern states to get a man to oper ate hi steam roller and some of the other oontraotfrs are scouring the country for men wha understand concrete and paving work. ., Grandma Motfa Advice to Travelers.
