LAWYERS DID IT.
How the Union Pacific Trouble Over the
Omaha Bridge Happened.

New York. January 2d.--A representa-
tive banker, identified with the Presidents
Association, was interviewed and says:
The people are mistaken in supposing
the Omaha bridge controversy will affect
the Presidents agreement The fact that
disagreement has been discovered and
prompt steps are being taken to remedy it,
shows that there is general disposition TO
maintain harmonious relations among all
lines. in every particular. The fact is that
certain lawyers, in drawing up the Omaha
bridge contract, overreached certain other
lawyers. The lawyers have made mis-
take, rather than the principals. 1t took
the principals, however, in the new man
agsment of The Union Pacific, very short
time to discover its full effects. The new
management has the sympathies of the
outside railroad men as far as the facts are
known.
