The Railroad war.

For the past few days large number
of stock trains have passed through Rock
Island for the east, and equally heavy
shipments of lumber have passed through
for tho west, all over the O.. r. |. 4 p.
Railroad. Heretofore large proportion
of the stock shipments for the east have
been carried over the G., b. & O., but the
recent trouble between this road and the
Union Pacific has been the means of di-
verting the trade to the c., R. |. & P.
company. How long this war will con-
tinue will depend greatly on the manage
ment in the east where the great pool lines
centre. The Davenport Democrat says:
THE U. P. has ceased to deliver live stock
to the O., B. & Q. at Council Bluffs
won't take for that road at any price and
the great stock trains noted above are the
consequence, During the thirty-six hours
ending at 6 o'clock this morning between
1900 and 1900 head of cattle have came
in on the c., r. l. & Pail received from
the U. P. Sunday and Monday.
The origin of the war is found in the
action of the c., B. & @, which, they say,
has been secretly at work getting the cat
tie dealers in Nebraska to drive their cat
tie to the B. 4 NJ station at Kearney
junction, or to any other station on the B
& NJ. or its branches. Offering rates which
paid the drivers to do the driving for hun
dreds of miles west of the junction. Tht
c., B. & Q. runs the B. & NJ. lines, so yot
see the c., B. %. obtained these shipments
carried them to Chicago, aud didn't hav'
to divide with the pool. The same thiDl
with lumber, which was filled in Chicag'
over the c., B. & Q. and B. & NJ. fo
Fort Kearney and other points at rate
far less than the pool lines" and th
Union Pacific were carrying for. AL thi
while the c., B, & @ folks, it is charged
were trying to get the other pool lines t
raise their rates from $50 to $50 per ca
for cattle from Council Bluffs to Chicago
and of course the more the pool line
charged the greater would be the patron
age over the B. & NJ. and c., B. Il Q.
was very sharp practice If the thing wa
done as alleged by the U. P. folks, and tn
10. B. & O. could afford to ''cut, as the
didn't have to divide on that business wit
| the other two roads.
Now, all the pool lines. the Omaha pa
pers say, are carrying lumber fromChicag
to points on the U. Z. as far as Fo.
| Kearney at twenty-five cents per 10
pounds, the U. 2. standing the cut, bu
, will take no lumber from the G. B. l. {
folks at that rate. And SO they advertis
to carry cattle from Kearney to the Mis-
souri, river at $500 per car, which woul
make it $500 to Chicago. And wheat
