Jteoemtly, whew Vice President Hereon and Superintendent JTBernardl were In the elty. they held a meeting with the otty ooonotl and went over the Itodge street oroufog situation. To the council they presented two propositions. One was t build a viaduct over the traoks en the Una ef Dodge street, and the other waa to elevate, so that there would be an overhead crossing. The last ntmed plan contemplated the elevation of the tracks from about Dovenport, south to Jones trees. At the meeting the officials of the Mis souri Faoiflo expressed a willingness for nlther course, leaving the council to designate which was more desirable.

MARKET WEEK THIS YEAR BIG SUCCESS More Merchant, Attend Thin Ever Before and All Booit the Omaha Stunt COME FROM HALF DOZEN STATES Omaha jobbers say there are more merchants from adjoining states in Omaha buying their stocks of goods this present merchants' week than ever be fore. The wholesale houses are well sprinkled with men from Wyoming, Mon tana. Kansas, Dakota and Iowa. Kan sas I especially well represented. One of the Kansas fellows, Mr. McDonald of the Boyle Furniture company of Belolt, Kan., says all Kansas Is looking for a great crop and a good year's business this year. He says the snow on the en tire wheat belt is looked upon as espe cially favorable. J. M. Bay of Hurley, S. D., says condi tions In his territory are good and that Dakota la optimistic The promise of the wheat crop for llt. he says. Is especially bright, with the heavy snows to protect It well Into the spring, and this mskes business prospects good in a wheat country. John Burly of Round Up. Wyo., ts one of those who catne a good way to do his shopping this year. He represents the Grey Bull Trading company. He looks for a good year In Wyoming and tlu ter ritory north Into Montana. r Beet of All Market Weeks. C H. Pickens of the Paxton-Qallaxher Wholesale Grocery company says! "Tak ing the weather and snow blockade Into consideration, this has been the best end moat enthusiastic market week Omaha has ever bad. We have had more people In here every day than we ever had dur ing a merchants' market week. The week has been a success in every way." Roy Byrne of the Byrne-Hammer com pany says: "It has been an unqualified success in every way. The Immense suooess insures the permanence of the merchant market as an Institution. Al ready the committee Is planning on new features for the merchants market week ln the fall, and the visitors from distant points are all expressing their In tention of coming again for the fall week when the date la definitely set. The pur chases have been very substantial and. In fact, somewhat larger than the whole sales had actually anticipated." Visitors Are Satisfied. Jo Kelly of M. E. Smith Co. says: "Everything haa worked out according to the best expectations. The attendance has been larger than ever before, and If the heavy snow and partial blockade had not occurred Just as it did, the crowds would have been larger than we could well have taken care of. General satis faction Is expressed by the merohanta from out In the state and adjoining states at the character of the entertain ment afforded during the week. The ultimate result of these merchsnts' mar ket weeks Is to be to cement all the wholesale and lobbing houses together into united effort toward these features, alnce we have largely eliminated the trade excursions. Trade excursions are well, and we get out and see the fellows, but It Is better to get them here. It cre ates a better impression In their minds to have them see whst we have in Omaha, rather than merely to go out and tell them about It. This merchants crowd this week Is a good buying crowd." Don Lee of Becbe A Runyan company says: -"This Is the' banner market week. The Jobbers are all well pleased. There are a great many buyers here from Wyoming, Montana, the Dakctas, Kani sa and Iowa, Thoy are all feeing good and the business is brisk."
