A Railroad Fight Brewing-.-So-
cial Life.

The Omaha road will run the first train
out of the union station at 6 :05 a. m. Mon
day, and, with the Duluth, will continue
to use the station under the terms of the
contract. The Milwaukee road, under
advices from headquarters, refuses to
come in under present arrangements.
1t asks free and unObStructed use of all
the transfer cOmpany's tracks in the
city, which would be for il practical
surrender of the charter. The transfer
company offers the Milwaukee road
free use of its tracks to run in and
out of the station, and the use of the
Duluth track, turn-table and water
tank for passenger engines. Feeling
among the citizens and business men is
very strong against the Milwaukee
road, and unless it shall alter its de-
there will be one of the incest
little railroad fights in this city
which has been seen for a num-
Der of months. All the roads are
under agreement to use the depot upon
the same footing, paying 500 per month
rental and One-third of the operating
expenses. There is no bar to their
coming in, and their action in refusing
to comply with their agreement meets
with the strongest condemnation.
