HEW LINEUP FOR
WESTERN ROADS
Union Pacific and Burlington in a
Big Seal for the Througa
Bmineu.
TO USE U. P. WIST OP DENVER
Passenger traffic official! of roada
having through car arrangements
with the Union Pacific on western
business are considerably , exercised
over the tie-up that the Overland
system has made with the Burlington
to handle its cars west from Denver.
Saturday The Bee announced that
effective May SO, the Burlington
w ould haul the cars over ita own rails
to Denver and there they would be
turned over to the Union Pacific to
be hauled to Ogden, there to be taken
on by the 8outhern Pacific.
Now It seems that theM cars ar to
mart from Chicago over the Burlington
and run through Bt. Louis, and from
there on routed stated. Thla. how
' aver, only told hiilf tho story, for accord
ing to ths agreement entered Into by
the Union Pacfrlc and Burlington. May
JO. and dally thereafter, the Burlington
will run a Chicago train through Omaha,
and from here It will go to Denver, wher
It will be consolidated with the Chicago
L louls train and turned over to the
Union raciflo. This will be an abso
lutely new train out of Denver and over
the Union Pacifle will be hauled to
Ogden, where It will be pllt, one part
going on to Ban Francisco, over the
Southern Tactile and hauled by Southern
Pacific engines The other part will be
taken over by the San Pedro and will be
hauled to Loa Angoln. Similar arrange
ments' will apply on the eastbound busi
ness. As It la figured out at thla time, the
Burlington wilt have enough passengers
to fill a train off the two trains Into
Denver. In the event It should not, the
Union rarillc reserves the light to at
tach Ita cara at points enroute.
Thla tie-up la the sensation In railroad
circles, aa it la known that in the part
the Burlington haa used the Denver A
Jtlo Grande exclusively from Denver to
Ogden. and that west of there It haa
had close traffic arrangements with the
Western . laclflc. Thla latest move la
taken by railroad men here to mean that
the Ulll and Qnud systems hava broken,
r partially broken off the friendly re
lations that hava existed since the com
pletion of the Western Pacific.
It Is also taken to mean, tay the rail
road men, that It' lnll-atea a possible
break between the Union Pacific, North
western and the Milwaukee, and that the
traffic arranKeinents y which the first
naim-d road haa been haung the cara
or the two roads last named may end
In tlie nenr future.
Uiion Prllu offlclnhi here are not
talking. tnrl- asserting that the new
move is aolcly for business. Offlctala of
Hif other roads Intresied are not close
enough t.i the Inner circles, so that thay
K-el at liberty to express optnlona aa to
wlmi the new move on the railroad
ib'rkerboard means.
