Lane cut-off starts at what la commonly

after . a few curves gets straightened out
and runs In a direct line to the west until
It nearly meets the old line Just north
of Millard, where It again swerves to the
north and meets the main line at the sta
tion of Lane. The addition of the new
line will greatly facilitate the handling of
business In and out of Omaha, especially
because traffic on the old line was so
heavy between Omaha and South Omaha.
The Missouri Paclfio uses the Union Pa
cific tracks on the trains It runs out of the
Union station and all the eastern connec

vast territory and at times of heavy
rains, have been covered with water across
their entire width to a depth of from one
to five feet. The valley of Hell creek Is
sharp and steep, and while considerably
narrower than the other two, it drains a
large area and Is subject to sudden and
very high floods. To permit this water to
pass through the fills freely ample pro
vision has been made In tho way of large
concrete openings.
Ns Grade Crossings.
One of the more notable features in con
nection with the new line Is the absence of
all grade crossings, either with railways
or highways, excepting one near the west
end. Four railroads, the Missouri Pacific
(twice), the Illinois Central and the North
western are crossed.
All of these crossings are made over
head, on steel viaducts, one of the Missouri
Pacific crossings being Included In the via
duct over the Little Papllllon creek. The
other crossing of that railroad and the
Lcrosslng of the Omaha Bridge and Terminal
railway, are made on a single structure con
sisting of a double track 106-foot pony
truss-span, with two double track eight
foot plate girder-spans at the east end.
The Chicago & Northwestern railroad Is
crossed on a 135-foot through rlveted-truss
span, with a sixty-foot deck plate-girder
span at each end. Most of the remaining
bridges and culverts are of concrete, the
larger structures being reinforced. Cast
Iron pipe was used for small waterway
openings. All streets and highways, ex
cept one, cross the cut-off overhead, or
are carried underneath. Where sufficient
headroom was available, undergradu high
way crossings are carried in twenty-foot
concrete arches. Otherwise, flat-top rein
forced concrete structures, providing a clear
width of eighteen feet, and a clear height
of 'fourteen feet for the roadway were
built.
' On the new road are six highway
under crossings, six highway over cross
ings and one highway grade crossing.
Glaat Concrete Arches.
Two of the highways aro carried under
the embankment with twenty-toot concrete
arches, having twenty feet clearance both
horlsontslly and vertically, Ihe lengths of
the barrels of these arches being respec
tively II feetand 148 feet. One highway
under crossing Inside the city limits la
made with a thirty-foot reinforced con
crete arch, having a clear height of twenty-two
feet, a clear width of thirty feet
and total length of barrel of fifty-six feet.
The other highway under crossings are
made with a rectangular concrete culvert,
the deck slab having fifteen-Inch I-beams
and corrugated bars embedded In the con
crete, making a solid floor over which the
ballastod roadbed will be carried. The
clear width of these openings Is eighteen
feet and the clear height Is fourteen feet.
The overhead highway crossings. Including
three within the city limits, are made by
steel viaducts with concrete substructures.
Waterways were quite a problem, but
these are handled by caatlron pipe cul
verts for the smaller drainages and con
crete arches for the larger ones except
two. The Big Paplo creek la crosstd with
a steel" vladuct'of "three eighty-foot deck
girder spans, with two forty-foot span
steel towers oh concrete pedestals and
pile piers at the short ends; the extreme
height from the base of tho rail to the
ground Is sixty-five feet. A drainage at
Luna Is crossed by two single track, thirty-loot
deck plate girder spans laid side
by side on concrete abutments.
Longest Caatlron Calvert.
The longest of the castlron pipe culverts
Is 132 feet long, laid with thlrty-slx-lnch
pipe. The rest average approximately se-enty-two
feet and vary from twenty-four
to forty-eight inches In diameter. Nine
concrete arch culverts for minor drainages,
the largest being a twenty-foot arch with
a barrel 148 feet long. Of these
nine culverts two are notable because
of their length. One of these arches, six
feet in clear width and eight feet in clear
height has a total length of barrel of 183
feet. The othf r ten feet and eleven feet
high has a total length of barrel of ISO
feet. The smallest arch culvert Is six 'et
wide and forty-nine feet In length of bar

Extra Work .from Fills.
Py reason of the Instability of the allu
vial soil along the Big and Little Papll
llon creeks, an Immense amount of extra
work was necessary tn making these fills.
On the Little Papllllon the tracks are
nnlety-slx feet above the original ground
surface and the Big Papllllon Is crosncd
with a fill of sixty-five feet. For both of
these big fills temporary timber trestlts,
built to carry standard gauge equipment,
were built. Tho material for the fill was
dumped directly from the cars on the trts
tie to place on both sides of the trestle
and the embankments were built In suc
cessive layers extending across the
valley.

(kief af Police Koehler Straek tr a
tone la the First Outbreak of
Dar at Lakevlew Barns
Ortgla of Troable.
CLEVELAND, May 16. Rioting and vio
lence, although not serious, marked the
early hours of the strike of the conductors
and motormen on the lines of trie Municipal
Traction company here today.
The strike order was given at I o'clock
this morning following a stormy all-night
meeting of the car men. The order went
Into effect at 6 o'clock. From the begin
ning there was trouble In getting cars
out.
One of the first dlstrubances of any con
sequence took place at the Lakevlew car
barns, where Chief of Police Koehler was
struck by a stone hurled at the police by
strike sympathizers.
An effort to move the cars from the
Lakevlew barns was opposed by the strik
ers. The men on the cars refused to
leave and a crowd quickiy gathered. The
police, headed by the chief were rushed to
the barns. In an effort to drive the crowd
back, stones and clubs were used. The
police also used their maces In an effort
to control the mob. Many were slightly
injured.
Violence Over FJntlre City.
Cars are being stopped In all sections of
the city by the strikers and their friends.
A Payne avenue car was derailed by a
rail thrown across the tracks. The crew
on a St. Clair avenue car was dragged
from the car and assaulted. The motor
man's scalp was laid open. On East Nine
tieth street a mob of fifty men tore upvthe
tracks and traffic was stopped.
During the early hours stones were freely
hurled at many cars and windows were
broken In numerous instances. The non
union men also were hooted and Jeered.
In many Instances riding upon the cars
by regular patrons was fraught with
danger. For the most part people walked
to their places of business this morning.
During the first hour or two after the
Inauguration of the strike there was little
or no trouble. The strikers appealed to
the nonunion men, who refused to leave
the cars. Some of them did desert after
first deciding not to strike. Many old em
ployes remained with the company, how
ever. These were the older men In point
of age. Practically all of the young men
went out.
Outsiders Incite Men.
It was not until the majority of the citl
sens arose and attempted to go to their
work that any semblance of rioting oc
curred. This was after 7 o'clock. The
strike sympathisers gathered around the
car barns and hooted and yelled with the
strikers at the men at work. The union
men were roused, In some instances, to use
force to stop the operation of cars. For
the most part, however. It Is said, the
violence was Instigated and carried out by
outsiders.
The 300 motormen and conductors form
erly with the Forest City Railway com
pany, the original 3-cent fare car line and
later merged with the old Cleveland Elec
tric Railway company, now being oper
ated by the Municipal Traction company,
remained at work. While many cars are
running, yet they form only a small per
centage of the usual quota. Some lirjes
are tied up entirely. The others are run
ning cars Irregularly, averaging possibly
two or three an hour.
Dupont Claims Disloyalty.
President Dupont of the Municipal com
pany gave out the following statement to
day: "We have been ready from the bearlnnina-
of the trouble to arbitrate all differences
oeiween tne employes and the company.
The offer of arbitration came from the
union ana we accepted it. We Intended to
curry it out in good faith.
f rom the time the Mun c pal Traction
company took charge there was a spirit of
uiaiuyuiiy ana msuooruination on tne part
of some of the old employes. Such dls-
cnarges as were made were made tor
cause.
The Municipal not only raised the waa-ea
Of the men 1 cent an hour when It took
over the system, but it gave them -free
uniforms, i'lils made the maximum pay In
Cleveland 25 cents an hour. There are
only three or four street railway systems
m America tnat pay as high as this.
In Lakewood, a big suburb, the trolley
wires of the Municipal Traction company
were cut this morning. Officials of the
company claimed that the police of the
suburb made no attempt to prevent de
struction of Its property and called upon
County Sheriff McUooray for protection.
A number of deputies were at once sent to
Lakewood.
While numerous disturbances and In
cipient riots have occurred throughout tho
city, there has been, thus far, no disposi
tion on the part of the local authorities to
call on the -militia for assistance. It" la
stated, however, ' that Cleveland military
organisations have been asked to be pre
pared in, the event that they are needed.
Orlarln of tho Troable.
The strike had its origin In the Institu
tion of t-cent fares, a subject of politi
cal contention In Cleveland during seven
last years. Following the municipal elec
tion last November, when the principal
issue was the question of municipal con
trol of traction companies and an ultimate
rate of t cents within the city
limits, a consolidation of the street car
lines came about.
At that moment it developed that the
Cleveland Electric Railway company, the
major traction corporation, had signed a
contract with the Amalgamated Associa
tion of Street and Flectrlu employes,
whereby It was agreed, than In the event
of a "continuation" of their franchise or
Its equivalent, the conductors and motor
men would receive a specified Increase
of t cents an hour, snd an adjustment of
other minor alleged grievances.
The merged properties having been leased
to the Municipal Traction company, the
traction Infant" took the position that the
contract was not binding upon them. The
new company, did, however, offer an In
crease of 1 cent an hour In the pay of the
men, to take effect, April upon which
day f cent fares was put Into operation.
The new company also ordered that all
employes should pay car fare when riding
upon the company's cars, while not at
work. The company also proposed to sup
ply the men with uniforms, free of charge.
Company's Offer I'nsatlsfartory.
The propostlon of the new company, In
lieu of the previous arrangement with the
old company, was not satisfactory to the
employes. Talk of a strike followed. Presi
dent Dupont of the traction company,
would arbitrate only the legal effect of
the old contract, and Insisted that all or
none of the points be thus submitted to a
peaceful settlement. Both sides strove for
strategic positions.
About SOw motormen and conductors form
erly employed by the Forest City company,
the original S-cent fare line, did not jola
In the strike. There were also quite a
large number of the men employed on other
lines who did not quit work. The latter
were largely made up of men who have
been broken In since the strike was first
threatened ten days ago.

under way looking to arbitration of trie
differences between the employes and the
company, the company has systematically
laid off all the old union men, re
duced them to the extra list, sup
planted them with Forest City men and
has given every Indication that It was the
purpose of the Municipal Traction company
to force the union men out of the service
and use arbltrarlon only as a cloak for
deluy.
, Union's glda of Case.
Vice President Behner of the union, In
commenting on the strike situation today,
said:
I am pleased with the outlook. All the
men are loyal to the union and we expect
them to stick by the union until we win.
T litre' Is no doubt that we will win In the
end.
1 believe the public Is on our side and
realize that our men have been treated un
fairly by the traction company.
We have stationed pickets at every car
ham. These men will try to persuade any
one who shall attempt to run cars out of
the barn to quit work. They will do this
by persuasion, by peaceful methods and
not by violence.

Chief of Police Kohler today. "Any out

WIFE RESTORER LOST MIND
California Physician Forarets liu
Ideality and Wanders Aboat
far Months.
Suffering from a peculiar malady which
he Is unable to explan. Dr. Frank P.
King, 60 years old, a well known retired
physician of Los Angeles, stepped from
the doorwsy of his apartments on the
morning of February 28 Into a new world
of people he did not know. His past swept
from him, he forgot his home, his wife,
and h!s children. He was found by his
wife last week. He was sitting In Central
park, rot 100 yards from his apartments.
Vnkempt, haggard, and sick, he gazed
at the woman who ran up to him and
seized his hands. She gripped him hard!
and shook him. He struggled to his feet,
and with a tired shake of his head he ac
companied his wife to their apartments in
the Olengary hotel.
King Is regaining his reason, and, accord
ing to physicians In attendance, he soon will
be entirely recovered.
According to King's statement, he spent
a good part of the time during his absence
from home In a hospital In Ban Bernardino.
He did not remember even his name. He
wum icii 1110 jJiiyoiuaija iiuuiiiiff aouui
himself.
Only the fsce of his wife and her earnest
entreaties brought him back from the con
dition Into which he had lapsed.
When Dr. King left his apartments in
February he had less than 60 cents In his
pockets. Reports were received from San
Diego that he had visited In that city. Then
came the report that he had stopped In
Riverside. How he managed to travel
about the country without money he can
not explain.
King was recognised in Central park yes
terday morning by a friend, who was not
positive of the Identification, however, be
cause of his changed appearance. This
friend sent for Mrs. King, and she saw at
once that the man was her husband. He
gazed at her vacantly and shook his head.
But ashe looked the light of recognition
came Into his face, and ho arose and fol
lowed his wife out of the park and back
home. Los Angeles Times. .
