OBLIGATIONS THAT ARE ABOUT DUE Had Company OBflned Itself to Original rar pones Entire Rail way Sltnatlon Woald Be Clearer. Just at present the Union Pacific rail road, with its great reconstruct! t, E. H. Harrlman, stand in the center of the stage with the limelight shining directly on them. In the east and west they are receiving general attention and many of the eastern papers are devoting great space to the dis cussion of the finances of the Overland, with special reference to the policy of re trenchment so recently Instituted; In fart put Into effect only since the Nebraska legislature got so "perniciously" busy with laws which affected Its Interests. As con servative a paper as the New York Even ing Post says on Its financial page that the Union Pacific must raise between $T5,000.o"0 and $100,000,000 by fall to meet obligations and Intimates that this may be one reason for the abandonment of such Improve-1 ments as the Omaha general headquarters, without specifying that projected struc ture. The Post takes the view that had the Union Pacific confined Itself to the pur poses for which it was originally Intended the entire railway situation would be much clearer than It la. View of the Past. The Tost has this to say: Union Pacific sold down to 137 last Mon day, at which price it yielded Vi per cent, on persistent rumors that the company was about to Issue short term notes. As $220,yo,0iX) short term notes have been sold bv the re lronds since January 1. the Issu ing of such securities has been the rule rather than the exception. But the I'nlon Pacific was the one road thought to be ex empt from the necessity of adopting such an expedient. Tt was only four months ago that the annual statement was published revealing financial strength heretofore nn- ?aralleled by any other railway company, lecent disclosures, however, showed that since the close of the year debts had been contracted. Then came the piecing to gether of evidence that resulted In this week's rumors. For the year ended June 80 last, the Union Pacific earned 15 per cent for Its common slock and reported current asfts. Including $,"fi,0no.00rt cash, of $123,077,000. agnlnst only $34,710,000 floating indebted ness. It was pointed out In the annual statement Issued late In November that $5)1,000,000 would be required during i:W7 for construction of new lines snd for new equipment, but the sum was generally con sidered trifling In view of the cash on hand, $100,000,000 unissued preferred stock and on plodired securities amounting to porno $1S ono.ooo. That was before It was known that flW.Wl.OOO had been spent for Illinois Cen tral, Baltimore & Ohio. New York Central, Atchison and other stocks, and before It became Impracticable to sell bonds. The purchase of those stocks compelled the I'nlon Pacific to use Its cash and besides Five the Pennsylvania notes for J4S.M6.nnn. The notes mature early In the fall, and the management must also provide for the JfA- OnO.OOO construction and equipment outliy. According to the Southern Pacific's last an nual renort, that company must raise this year $17,0io,ooo for equipment and enough to cover expenditures on account of the 1,600 miles of road under construction. All told the Union Pacific needs between $75.(00,000 and $100,000,000, while the Southern Pacific could probably get along with be tween $30,000,000 and $30,000,000 new money. There is no question as to the ability of the Union Pacific-Southern Pacific man agement to raise! all of the funds required. Hut, whether or not the money can be raised on terms more advantageous than those ofTered to Pennsylvania, Lake Shorn, Atlantic Coast Line and other roads with flrst-clsss credit remains to be seen. Eliminating all questions of profits by In siders and the loss of $2l,000,0oo shown by Union Pacific at one time, on the stocks purchased last fall. It grows more and more difficult to understand why that company's credit was used to acquire at top prices minority shares of New York Central.' Northwestern, liammore Ohio and North ern Pacific. If the I'nlon Pacific railroad had confined Itself to the pu! poses for which It was originally Incorporated the entre railway situation today would be clearer. Announcements of the Theaters.

WATTLES BUYS RANCH HOME Gets Beautiful Piece of Landscape, Says E. M. Moraraan, In Southern California. E. M. Morsman, secretary and treasurer of the Nebraska Telephone company, who with Mrs. Morsman has been spending the winter In California, returned Monday, with Mrs. Morsman. They spent the winter at San Vlego and Coronado. "We had quite a colony of Omaha people in southern California at one time," acid Mr. Morsman. "Mr. and Mrs. Wattles, Mr. and Mrs. Bldwell and General and Mrs. Manderson were all there. All seemed to be having a most enjoyable time In that delightful climate."

"They have the double "phone system and I don't know but what one system was as bad aa the other, only I know It waa hard to telephone anywhere. "Mr. Wattles bought a beautiful tract of land In California about six miles from the j city. I suppose he will have It for a win- j ter home some day, and It Is a splendid i spot. About ten acres are cultivated and j eighty acres adjoins It on the rear and runs hack toward the hills, being especially susceptible to landscaping when Mr. Wat tles gets ready to have It done. "The rains were said to have been heavier than usual and after one of the heavy rains the newspapers would print of the damage with large headlines and the peo ple would flock out to see what devasta tion had been wrought. . "It Is hard work to get out of California at this time of the year because all the travel Is coming this way." SOIL CONDITIONS ARE GOOD Darllnaton Crop Beport Shows that PreelpltatloM Has Benefited Vegetation In Nebraska. The soil of Kansas and Nebraska Is In good condition, according to the soil and crop report of the Burlington railroad for the week ending April 30. West of Fort Morgan It Is dry. There was enough pre cipitation In Nebraska to materially benefit the ground. Winter wheat did not make much pro gress during the last week because of the extremely cold weather. The condition of the crop continues to be more satisfactory and nothing haa developed to affect the re ault since the last report. It Is feared the cold nights may have re sulted In aome permanent Injury to oata, although It is not probable. Other spring grain Is doing well. Plowlnf fir corn has progressed very well and nowhere has tho ground been so dry as to prevent plowing, nor has It been too wet to till. Weather conditions have also been favorable for preparing the ground for corn where plow ing is not done, that Is where It Is listed or planted by some other means without plowing. About the average crop of potatoes has been planted. Stock la doing well every where within the district of Nebraska. A small acreage of sugar beets has been planted already. . The Impression seems to prevail that peaches, plums and pears are entirely done for, but that there Is some hope for apples. The soil of Wyoming Is reported to be a little dry. according to the soil and crop report of the Burlington for the Wyoming district; that Is, It Is dry on the surface, with plenty of moisture beneath. Rain Is needed for the wheat crop on the Alliance division. The outlook for a large crop on the Sterling division Is good. Oats have not been growing very fast because of the cool weather. The fruit crop has been almost wholly destroyed on the Sterling division and considerably dam aged on the Alliance division. The early garden truck also Is damaged because of frosts on the Alliance division. Conditions are very favorable for all grasses on the Sterling division, although the stock la not In the best of condition because of the scarcity of winter feed. Alfalfa Is growing nicely. Sheep shearing has commenced at some points on the Sheridan division and Indications are there will be a large wool crop. Mangum & Co.. LETTER Si-iCIALISTS.

SHAW CLIOUE GETS SCARED est Crow Trying to Oust Citj Eneineer Doubts Outeoma of the fcLema, LAWYERS ThY.r.G FOR DIFFERENT TACK Advise Conncll to Conjnre lp New Method, aa Old One Does Not Warrant Cilovvln Results. While the mandamus suit Involving the city engineersuip has been aubmltted In court and taken under advisement by tho Judge, considerable speculation Is going on in the city hall as to the situation and what the subsquent moves will be. The point submitted to the court Involves the ;rlma facie claim to tha office, turning on whether the council had a right to declare a vacancy and elect a new engineer to fill Jt In the way In which It did. According to Inside Information, the at torneys who appear for Shaw and for the city council In their effort to oust Androw Roeewater do not have much confidence in tho case they have made. At any rate, they have advised the council to prepare to take a different tack in anticipation of an adverse decision in court. It Is said that all three of these lawyers agree that while the authority of the councll'a action In electing Shaw may be questioned, the char ter can be read to give the mayor and coun cil the right to provide by ordinance for the filling of vacanclea by refusal of the mayor'a appointee to qualify. It la said that such an ordinance already has been drawn and was to have been Introduced at the last meeting of the council, but was withheld for fear It might effect. the man damus case then pending. This ordinance will define vacanclea In appointive offices and assume to the council the right to fill the same under prescribed conditions. Mayor Dahlman, who has taken the side of City Engineer Rose water all the way through, would be expected to veto the ordinance, buf the democratic ctuncllmen who are fighting the mayor claim to have enough votea to put It through over hla veto. This, at any rate, la the program blocked out by the lawyers retained by no one knows who, to get rid of the present city engineer and they say tho attempt will undoubtedly be made to carry It out. BOB BAXTER IN OLD HOME Child of the I'nlon Purine la Given Oration by Friends Who Love Him. "Just stopped off to snake hands with old friends and view "old scenes," said R. W. Baxter, superintendent of the Buffalo the largest division of the Lehigh Valley rall- rad, Tuesday morning. "I am on my way west to visit the old country so dear to me," added Mr Baxter. "I like the east and my present situation, but I cannot forget or forsake the old west, where I came unto my own aa a man." Mr. Baxter, "Bob," aa ha haa been fa miliarly known to bo many In Omaha and the weat for ao many years, left the Union Pacific In the latter part of 1903, about the time of the departure of hla old-time friend, Ed Dickinson, general manager of the Overland.
