I'rtssure wa? ' finally brought to btur on the Iowa lines ' and all agreed to abolish the proportional rates on Ion a grain, beginning Apr.l 1. This was one of the hardest blows the Omaha Grain exchange hud ever received. 1 as It cut out practically u 11 Iowa grain fr m ' the Omaha market. It la now cheaper j 10 snip grain rrom tne sindiiir towns in S Iowa direct to Chicago than to ship through ! the Omaha market, as was formerly done. j A very small amount of grain now conies y j to Omahu from western Iowa, as It can be ft I shipped to Kansas City on the proportional ij I rates, but not to points beyond, the same ruling applying to points In the south as tj Chh mo. This concession In favor of grain to Kansas City Is of no practical value, us there Is no market there for the grain. Some oT the grain men are hopeful that some road will again come to the help of the Omaha grain market and make the proportional rates apply on Iowa grain.

This statement is on the authority of Secretary Urlgg of the Omaha Hulldeis' exchango and the opinion of the leading contractors of the city. Work already laid out Is of a nature which shows that Omaha Is becoming a city of permanence. In former years build ings were thrown together, often with only an eye to Immediate use. Now the men with money are putting it Into structures which shall endure during the years to come. First cost i less considered lhan cost per annum in the lifetime of a well con structed building. Prices of material have advanced only very slightly during the last year, this being particularly noticeable In lumber. Shortage exists In the supply of locally manufactured brick. Six firms In Omaha manufacture brick. These are aU working at full blast and still the fact remains that more than two-thirds of the brick put Into Omaha buildings last year came from Kansas. Neither a scarcity nor an oversupply of I labor exists and to crown all these pleas ant conditions in the building world, the dove of peace with a sprig of laurel In Its bill hovers over capital and labor. A die position Is noted on the part of contractors to be liberal In considering of what hire the laborer Is worthy. Wages paid to men In the building trades In Omaha now are as follows: Masons, 6J'4 cents; carpenters, 30 to 46 cents, ae cordlng to ability; Iron setters, 4TS cents; plasterers. K24 cents; lathers, 43 cents; tile setters, SO cents; plumbers and steam fltters, Ci cents; stonecutters and setter SO cents; painters, 46 cents; sheet metal workers, 40 to 50 cents; electricians, 40 cents; laborers and hodcarrlers, 3 to 30 cents. These prices are all for an eight hour day. Much building of suburban residence will be done during the summer, particu larly In the West Farnam and Benson dis tricts. In the district nearer the center ol the city many Hats are to be erected. LADIES OF THE MACCABEES State Convention of the Order Will Convene In Omaha, Neat Week.
