' Qrain from Nebraska Is practically all
I tnovlng to ths gulf at preMnt bccauM of
I th difference In freight rates between the
gulf and the Atlantic seaboard. The rate
1 en all roads except the Wabaah to the
' east are 11 cent . to Chicago, Utt cenu
J from Chicago to Baltomore and a charge
I of 1V oents for loading- on the boats, mak
ing a total of 34 cente against a rate of U
cents to the gulf, which rate also Includes
' loading on the boats.
The Wabash has a rate via Baltimore
ltd Hannibal of a cents to New York, but
the local agents claim they are not taking
any grain for Baltimore on this rate or
even . with the differential. The Wabash
had announced this rate would be pub
llshed to the east, but this announcement
waa followed by an announcement that the
rata would be withheld, pending the
meeting In New York last week. In spite
of that announcement the rate was given
to the Interstate Commerce commission
And is now the rate. Mr. Ives explained
the rate only applied via Hannibal.
Wabash Rate Hot Met.
No other road from Omaha has as yet
Announced It will meet the rate which Mr.
Ives put In for the Wabash on export
packing house products to put Omaha on
an equal footing with Kansas City. The
Alton had cut the rate from Kansas City
and the Wabash met the rate and made it
also apply from Omaha. Other roads say,
however, they stand ready to contract busi
ness on the same rate as the Wabash has
put in. They say they can do this and
then publish a tariff which will cover It.
. The packers are taking advantage In the
break In rates and have gone right after
the railroads to have the reduced rales
apply to all the products that they manu
facture and to have the rates also apply
to all Mississippi river crossings as well
as at Ht. Louis. Nothing baa been done
In the matter to date.
' Most of the eastern lines from Omaha
have a route whereby they get a haul, on
grain destined to the gulf. The rato to the
gulf is 18 cents, of which the roads get
I cents to St. IxjuIs or Ctntralla, and 10
cents from there on to the gulf.

BIRL1XGTOM I! THE BIO IIOR
Naw Mac Will Tap Rich Coantry for
Omaha.
, Wyoming is considerably worked up over
tho filing of articlos of Incorporation by the
Big Horn Railroad company over the sig
nature of Georgo W. Holdrege, general
nKn;igi r of the Burlington. This Is taken
oh a ilerinire conclusion on tho part of the
I!v.Jilnt,ioii to build a line from Denver to
'.ue Shoshone reservation to connect with
the Frnnnie-Worland line at a point nesr
hbhone. The amended articles say in
part:
The Big Horn Railroad company, In sd
dltion to the powers pet forth in Its orig
inal certificate of incorporation, shall have
the power to construct, maintain and oper
ate a branrh of its rallrosd beginning at
the Junction of the Big Horn river with
Ing, and running in a southeasterly dlrec- '
tion inrougn me counties or rremont,
Natrons. Sweetwater, Csrbon and Albany
to a point on tho Wyoming-Colorado state
lino between the 106th and 107th meridians
of west longitude. .
.Th fill.. k. - t-l
presence of a large corp of engineers In the
neighborhood of Laramie, which town now
has an Idea, that It will be on the proposed
route. It Is thought the road will run from
Lyons, the terminus of the Burlington's
branch, north out of Denver, through Larl
mle and from . there down the Big Horn
river to connect with the branch now being
built south from Frannln to Worland.
This will give tho Burlington a splendid
tine from the Yellowstone and Big Horn
country to Omaha, putting tho Wind River
country within twenty-four hours of Omaha
and making a second trunk line to the
northwest. The Burlington Is working on
exactly opposite lines from the Union ra
vine. The Burlington has a regular net
work of feeders In. Nebraska, while the
T'nlon Pacific Is practically a big trunk line
with few feeders. The Burlington Is work
ing for more trunk lines, while Harrtman Is
working for more feeders.
Vast Improvements are constantly In
progress all along the line of the Union
Pacific and the track Is kept In the most
perfect condition. At Grand Island alone
over 100 extra men have been at work for
over one year putting the tracks and yards
In the best of condition for handling car.
Japa are being tried out In some places on
the road and these wlU also be employed
In the .beet , sugar fields where labor Is
scarce. The ballast of the Union Pacific
la almost entirely Sherman gravel, the
gumbo which formerly wss burned for bal
last near Rlkhorn having been discarded
some time ago, being too expensive and
not so satisfactory.
The fill near Elkhorn no longer grvs the
road trouble, as piling has been driven,
which gives a firm footing and holds the
fill In good shape.
In accordance with the announced plan
of the Rock Island to improve Its roadbed,
under the direction of the new engineer,
J. B. Berry, construction plans call for the
reballlstlnx with rock during the coming
year of 600 miles and ' the renewal of 300
miles of track with elghty-flve-pound rails.
About 100 miles will be equipped with auto
matic block slgnuls.

OLD FOLKS LEAD AT ALJAR
Seat to Them Com Minora Who Want
to Kmbark oa Sea of '
Matrimony. '
Up to a few days ago the majority 'of
marriage licenses issued since Christmas
were applied for by people well along In
years. The Inst few days the youngsters
have been getting In the game. Out of the
last seven licenses Issued by License Clerk
Morrill four have had to get the written
permission of their parents. Three of these
"Infants" were young men under 21 and
one girl was under 18. One male applicant
had an elder brother .with him. but Mr.
Morrill gently chased him out to get his
father's permission.
"Your brother may be posted on the mat
rimonial state and not afraid to consign
you to It," said Morrill, "but your father
Is the man I must do business with, 'and
your mother, too, may desire to have a
word." .
The, permission always Is forthcoming,
but In the course of a year a large number
of minors show up for licenses who have
neglected the necessary formality.
