At a meeting of the park commissioner

received from MIR. Snyder in which he
agreed to donate to the city six acres owned
by him adjoining the tract offered by Dr.
Miller, Lyman Richardson and others for

serve the right of a road across his tract.
After the regular business of the meeting
the matter of granting the right of way
across the corner Of Hanscom park to The
Omaha street railway company was taken
up and discussed at length. Judge Lake
held that the commissioners had no right to
grant the desired right Of way, as that power
rested entirely with the council.

224 North Sixteenth street was entertained.
Somebody got it into his head that William

Darst came to the front on call and explained
the situation to the probable satisfaction Of
the board.
After hearing the protests the board went
into executive session, which occupied about
half an hour. The result was as follows:
The application of August Schultz, 1913

Word was received by the board that the
war department at Washington had frowned
upon the protests made by the officers and
other soldiers at Fort Omaha against having
saloons there, the department saying that
the army folks Mt the Fort exceeded their

THE NEWCASTLE MINES.
What Effect They Will Have on
Omaha's Goa Supply.

What Effect They Will Have on
Omaha's Coal Supply.
The coal dealers Of Omaha are not very
juDilant. The amount and extent Of cold
weather thus far fails to satisfy the full bent
of their pleasure. The demands upon them
for fuel, while comparatively large, fell
short of expectations; consequently no occa-
sion has yet arise to justify an advance in
prices. The cold snap last week caused "a
slight increase of activity for two or three
days, and dealers were kept busy filling Or
ders. but no such thing as q run against the
supply constantly on hand can be hoped for
this winter, nor ever again, for that matter.
Within thirty days Omaha will be mad
secure against the possibilities of another
coal famine except IN the event Of some eX-
tremely unavoidable circumstance. How
ever, an enormous quantity IS required to
keep all the big engines. furnaces and fami-
lies now concentrated here gong.
The average price at present is about 80
per ton, and 1t has not varied from that fig
ure within a year.
AS soon as the Newcastle mines Tin Wyom-
ing to be worked, which will be
may be reduced slightly. Predictions are
made that the Newcastle company will de-
liver coal in Omaha at $3.50 and may be So
per ton. The Union Pacific charges 81 for
its Rock Springs coal. This price never
varies. The compauy's officials say that
they can not ship it in for any less. though if
the Burlington, which is to handle all the
Newcastle output, makes a 50 rate they will
have to meet It.
All reports say that the Newcastle coal is
equal in every respect to that mined at Rock
Springs, aud there Is enough in sight to
supply the entire state Of Nebraska for ten
years. For consumption in Omaha the
Union Pacific is supplying five carloads q
day. q
But this is "a very small portion of the
amount used, as much more comes from
southwestern Missouri and Kansas, con-
siderable from Colorado, some from Iowa,
lots OF hard coal from Pennsylvania, and
Illinois is not left out.
1t has been intimated that the Burlington
company, or rather men officially connected
with the Burlington road, owned the New
castle mines, but investigation proves that
such is not the case. Fitzpatrick Brothers &
Collins, the railroad contractors OF Beatrice,
are the sole owners, except j. b. Weston,
who discovered the mines and holds u small
interest. They have been putting up q lot
OF expensive machinery aud expect to be
ready for operations on a large scale within
the next four weeks. The Burlington ia
interested to this extent, that 1t will have q
monopoly on transportation TO market of all
coal taken out at that point. Before extend.
ing their line into the region where this
vast crop OF fuel lies the officials made a
th0rough investigation and satisfied them
selves that there were nc risks TO run.

The February report of the Government
Agricultural Department. as 1t has been wont
to do of late. estimates the stocks of wheat in
farmers hands to be greater than they really
are. The effect has been to depress the export.
trade which had commenced to come into
better shape for our surplus. Operators as
rule in our country do not rely on the depart
ment reports. In Europe, the Government
bulletins are considered the safest guides in
such matters, and operators there and those
under their Instructions On our side of the At
lantic, are Influenced accordingly. 1t did ap.
pear before the Government report was issued
that the way was gradually opening for better
prices for wheat in the future, but the ag-
gregates Of surplus appearing to be SO much
larger than the commercial estimate previous
ly made, the interest In a measure may be said
to have relapsed.
For six or eight weeks the quotations for
good wheat In our market have been without
out all surplus.
As frequently noted, our oats and clover
seed crops suffered from the wet season In
proportion to the great damage that injured
the wheat of 1889, from which cause so much
oft is sold at figures below quotations. Our
dealers have supplied themselves with good
stocks of oats for seeding purposes and clover
seed from the West, and the sales are fairly
active for these spring growing seeds.
