Foremost in Imports nee is ths new train
from Omaha to Denver, leaving Omaha at
11:60 p. m. and making a new train for
the people of the South Piatt country, so
that visitor from this section to Omaha
may attend the theater and return the
same night. Heretofore these people have
been forced to leave Omaha at 4:10 In the
afternoon or stay all night, as the train
which left Omaha at midnight only ran
west as far a Lincoln and then continued
to the northwest over the Billings line.
Another train for which the people living
at Lincoln and Intermediate points have
been clamoring Is the new evening train be
tween Omaha and Lincoln. This train Is
No. 23, the skldoo train, and leaves Omaha
at 7:2S p. m. This will be a great accom
modation to those desiring to spend the
afternoon and dinner hour In Omaha.
Burlington train No. 1 will hereafter leave
Chicago at 4:80 p. m. and leave Lincoln at
7:36 a. m., or ft bout three hours later than
t present and msks a desirable morning
train weat from Lincoln.
A near Denver-Chicago train will leave
Denver at 1:30 a. m. and strive at Chicago
at 4:30 tha next afternoon. As this train
would pass through Omaha about 3 a. m.
It will be run over the Plattsmouth cut-off.
The Denver-Omaha train No. ft will bring
In the western travel to Omaha and will
arlve In Oman at 7 a. m.
Train No. 18 from Grand Island ts
changed to No. 38 and wilt be a morning
train arriving at Omaha at noon.
Train No. 92 will be an additional dally
train from Omaha for Plattsmouth at
noon. Trains Nos. S and 3ft are extended to
Seneca, Instead of to Broken Bow.
The new train service, following: so
closely on the formation of the Omaha
division of the Burlington gives most con
venient train service to and from Omaha,
with all parts of the state reached by the
Burlington.

crease of $6.156 166, or 22. per cent over
last year. Estimating on this basis tha
whole year's net should give In round num
ber about 342.000.000.
Not only the Union Pacific, but other
Harrlman property is making simitar
gain.
For the same period the Southern Pa
cific reports gross earnings of 380.144.7o8.
which I a decrease of 38,046.768, or about 7
per cent, while Union for that period re
port gross as 352,968,128, or an Increase of
$218,796, or. about, 0.1 per cent over the
gross reported during the corresponding
period of last year. , .
In spit of tha four months In the past
winter, when railroad gross In tne aggre
gate waa bad, the aggregate net earnings
of the railroads of this country have aver
aged more than for the corresponding per
iod of last year, and in this respect the
Union and tha Southern Pacific stand up
above all ether.
The Southern Paclflo gives net for eight
months as 330.063.183, or an Increase of 34.
378.304, or 17 per pent over last year. If
net can continue 'at the rate of Increase
ever last year, which It has averaged up
to the present time, tha total net for this
year should be about 344,000,000.

BUSINESS GROWING ALL THE TIME
Coaeltloas la the West Steadily Im
prove, Says Park.
"Business to the west la showing a steady
Improvement," said W. L. Park, general
superintendent of the Union Pacific. "Both
freight and paasenger business Is looking
better, the Beatele expoaitlon undoubtedly
being a magnet now helping and will help
the paasenger business,
"When the panic came nearly two yea. a
ago the Union Paclflo waa hauling train
load after tralnload of .-nachlnarv to be
used In the development of the almost un
touched gigantic resource or the west and
that traffic stopped tmd it hts rout s'ow
In picking up. A change Is coming and
eastern money Is again finding Its way out
west and the train are again hauling
machinery to be used in mines and ether
Urge undertakings. This means a better
business all along the line."
