THE RAILWAYS.
Conflict Between the Union Pacific and
Two Other Roads

eonhict Between the Union Pacific and
Two Other Roads
CHICAGO, December 29.h.-The action of
the Union Pacific ia dehGrring the Chi.
cago, Milwaukee and St. Paul from en-
trance into Omaha over the Union Pacific
orldge was surprise TO the ST. Paul off
clals. For some time they have been ad.
Veruslog that, beginning yesterday, they
would run passenger trains through to
Omaha, but the first one under the new
schedule was stopped by the Union Pacific
people at the bridge.
In an interview President Miller, of the
ST. Paul road, said: Last Nav our com
psny entered into an arrangement with tee
Rock Island road, by which we were to
build bridge across the Missouri at
Omaha for our j1int use. As soon as the
Union Pacific people heard of this, and l
refer particularly TO Sidney Dillon, who is
now President and General Dodge, who is
Director, they sought conference with
our building bridge, as they would be
glad 10 let Us use their bridge for certain
consideration.
subsequently contract was drawn ND
By which our road and the Rock Island
were to run trains into the Union depot at
Omaha over the Union Pacific bridge. This
company was to pay $50. 900 year and its
proportion of other joint ex penses. The
contract was approved by President Adams
and the Board of Directors of the Union
Pacific, and there cah be no question as TO
its validity.
$50 far as our freight business is con.
cerned, we have been operating under the
contract since July, but as soon as we gave
notice that we would begin to run passen-
ger trains we were shut out without an ex.
pianahon. The contract is legally binding,
and do not see now the Union Pacific can
set it aside
The Rock Island contract was similar to
that of st. Paul, except that it embraced
the joint use of the tracks from Omaha 10
Lincoln. On the strength of it, the Rock
Island has built fifty-two miles OF road be.
tween Lincoln and Beatrice, connecting
with its main line. The Union Pacific was
thus to obtain southern outlet through
Indian Territory. and become competitor
for traffic to and from the Southwest.
Presidents Miller and Cable had con-
ference to-day. Both declare that they
have not decided on any definite course of
action. They were firmly of the opinion,
however, that they could not be deprived
OF the rights accorded them by the con-
tract, even though there has been change
IN the management of the Union Pacific
The opinion was expressed here to day
that the hand of Jay Gould has been seen
in all of this. He owns the Missouri Pa
cific, and that part of the contract which
gives the Union Pacific into Missouri Pa
cihc territory is not to his taste.
There is feeling in railway circles that
this affair may prove the death blow OF the
Presidents agreement. President Miller
said in an interview that if the contract
cannot be made to stand there is no use
fooilng away time with the traffic agree
ments.

MYSTERIOUS DEATH.
Woman Found Dea,I Under Peculiar
circumstances.


BELFAST, December 29th-A mysterious
and tragic death Is the present sensation of
tie day in this nsighborhood. From &C.
counts of the police, who maintsin silence
upon many important links in the story,
the following appears TO be the facts of the
case: A man named Mcdowell who, ii is
supposed, was born in this city, went to
the south of Africa some years ago, finally
settling down in the diamond mine region
and accumulated a fortune there About
seven weeks ago Mcdowell realized upon
his belongings in South Africa and pre-
pared to return to Ireland. Previous to so
doing, however, he married beautiful girl
belonging to Kimberley, the celebrated iia-
mond mining town. After his marriage Nc.
Dowell sailed with his bride for this country.
After their arrival here they passed some
time in the city, and then seem to have set
tied down at Bangor with the intention of
passing their honeymoon at that place.
Last night the inhabitants of Bangor were
thrown into state of great excitement
when it became known the body of Mrs.
Mcdowell was found by the roadside just
outside of town, with all empty bottle, sup
posed to hsve contained poison, lying be-
side her. So far these are all the facts OBJ
