Troubles Between Railroad Companies
and shippers at Omaha Over
Through 5{ning.
Shippers Said to be Violating Inter
state Law In Very Ingen.
iOus Manner.
The Fight Promises to Extend to all
the Live Stock Centers of
the Northwest.

OMAHA, Neb., April 16. Trouble
broke out at the stock yards between
the railroads and live stock shippers, the
former claiming that they were being
regularly defrauded out of immense
profit by stock being billed from West
ern points to this place, sold, and re-
shipped on the same billing, thus secur-
ing through rates which should be
purely local business. T. C. Meagley
has been sent here by the Western Joint
Freight association to investigate the
matter and caused the arrest of such
shippers for violating the interstate law.
The railroad officials claim that similar
measures are in vogue at Kansas City,
Salt Lake, Denver. Cheyenne, Sioux City
and st. Paul. Stockmen here assert that
it is merely concerted scheme ON the
part of the roads to divert shipments to
Eastern centers. Eight cars of cattle
from the West, consigned to Parkhurst,
Hopper g. Parker, of Chicago, via the
Burlington and Missouri, are held as q
test case. Stockmen are aroused.

LOOKS LIKE A RACE.

Appearances Indicate That the Great
Northern Is Making for winnipeg.
BRAINERD, Mimi, April 16.--A nys-
terious railroad survey is in progress,
passing this city north and south, that
gives rise to belief that a big race is on to
tap the country to the north, in the
Grand Rapids direction, toward the
boundary region. The party is well
equipped and is pushing along a couple
of miles per day. The line crosses the
Northern Pacific, east of this place, near
Red Cedar siding, and the stakes as set
thus indicate that more than fifty miles
of line had been run. Appearances
would indicate that it is Great North
ern line, and heading for short cut to
Winnipeg, perhaps as forestallment of
the Duluth and Winnipeg. If this is
true, it is 80 palpable an invasion of
Northern Pacific territory that the fur
is sure to fly, and our people would ex-
pect to see the Northern Pacific push
out Immediately for short line north
from this city.

to be absolutely correct and balanced with
vouchers for every expenditure.
