Is IN SPLENDID CONDITION.

Comptroller Mink and President Clark
Talk of the Union Pacific.
Oliver w. Mink. comptroller of the I'm
ion Pacific, who WIS in Omaha last
week, talking to a Bee representative of
the earnings of the road said: "All things
considered the year now closing will COM
pare very favorably with the best year in
our history. We have done a remarkable
business IN Nebraska and Kansas, Oregon
and Washington not showing up 30 well as
in previous years. Our southern connec-
sions are suffering considerably on account
of the failure of the wheat crop in Texas.
but taken altogether 1892 promises to be
one of our best years. In 1889 / think We
did the Target business since she road was
built. Everything seemed to work toRether
for our good. Since that time we have felt
the shortage of crops in Nebraska and
Kansas, the unsettled condition of affairs
III Oregon and Washington, and the short
age OF the wheat c op in Texas. When one
section of the country is prosperous by
some st RnRe freak of nature another sec
ton may be starving, and the rail Dad feels
these changes TO greater degree than any
othes corporations; for it depends upon tile
people for patronage. AS to the road itself
IT Is IN excellent condition. MIR. Clark hay-
ing just teturned from an extended tour of
the system.

AN ADVANCE IN RATES.
Lines Running Out Of Chicago Put
Up the Tariff on Passenger
Business.
The Transcontinental Lines Have
Agreed to Put Up Fares
to Old Rates.
Adams Express Company to Succeed the
American on tho R~url1ngt0n-
Union Pacific.

A few days ago passenger rates were nd
vanced as follows: Chicago TO Kansas CITY
from 80 to $12. 80; Chicago to st. Joseph
$40 TO $12. so; Chicago to LeRvsnwotth, SIT
90 $12.5 so; Chicago to 81. Louis. Sc to $3.50
St. Louis to Kansas City. SIS 10 $3.50; St
Louis to Leavenworth, $3.50 to IS; -
Louis to Atchison. $6 to $500; st. Louis to
st. Joseph, SC to SIS. 30. These advanced
rates are the same as those in effect before
the row which ended in the Alton becoming
\ non-msmbe. Of the Western Passenger
association. The advance means an add
tional income of about $1,000 900 annually
TO interested lines. Eastern lines have been
notified to use the advanced rates as oasing
rates, but will be unable to do so legally
until about Nov. 10. Until that date. there
fore, scalpers will reap q harvest on through
tickets, as eastern rates via Chicago Will be
based on the old rates. Advices have also
been received that managing officials OF tho
trans-continental lines had patched up a
truce on California rates and that all rates
will be advanced to tariff. An iron clad
agreement, it is said, has been signed by
all lines to in no way deviste from agreed
rates.
The Western Passenger association at a
recent meeting reafirmed the agreement to
put into effect the advanced rates between
Chicago and Southwestern Missouri river
points quoted above. Nothing WAS done
with the proposition to adopt 6.0OO-mils
interchangeable tickets. The committee
having charge of the matter was Unable to
agree upon a reform and the committee
vas discharged. Further consideration of
the subject was deferred until the next
meeting of the association. 1t appears to
be the general impression that no plan has
been presented which will insure to each
railroad its absolute division of the money
received for the sale of the tickets. For
this reason, If for no other, there does not
seem to be much likelihood of the western
roads agreeing to adopt the proposed form
of ticket.

Tho Adams Company VIII Occupy the
Line After Jan. i.
President c. E. Perkins. Of the Burling-
ton, says that the report that the Adams
Express compsny Ia to occupy the lines OF
the Burlington on and after Jan. l next ia
correct. says the Globe Democrat. Mr.
Perkins states that the object of the change
10 TO have the lines of the Burlington occu-
pied by an express COMPANY without rival
or conflicting interests. This il accom-
rlished BY substituting, the Adams
4 Co.'s Express, both of which occupy the
lines of competing railroads. Mr.. Perkins
thinks the change will be made without
trouble or friction of any kind, and that
most of those now in the employ
of the American company and OF
Wells Fargo & Co.'s Express will remain on
the road in the service of ths Adams COM
pany. -

M. Perkins. lit will make no difference
whatever. The service will be no less eff
cient than IL has been heretofore, the Adams
company being thoroughly organized and
as competent to attend to the express traffic
of the Burlington lines az any other oraani-
cation could be-"
Mr.. Perkins states that IL had become a
question with the company whether to run
its own express or to arrange with some
agency whose interests would be entirely
devoted to the development of business on
Burlington lines, and it has been found
that the objsetsdesired can be accomplished
through the medium and with the cooper
alton of the Adams, which is one of the
oldest express companies of the United
After Jan. l next it will operate an express
business oyer the entire 1000 miles of road
operated by the Burlington route. Hereto
fore the American Express company has
controlled the express business of the Bur-
lington ines east of the Missouri. while
Wells. Fargo Il Co. awe controlled the bus
mess west of the river.
This arrangement will. after Jan. l, shut
the American Express company out of all
Colorado and Wyoming business. and leave
the company without any entrance into
Burlington. AS q matter of fact the
American will. after the lat of January,
have but four or five Offices in the field
which it now occupies almost exclusively.
Offices will lie maintained at Chicago, Men
dota. Osceola, Des Moines and Council
Bluffs, n probably one or two more.

"A Pennsyivania Engine Runs at the Rate
of seyenty-six Miles an Hour.
For the purpose of discovering what atyle
of machine would be best adapted for haul
ing fast trains to the Worlds fair next
year four locomotives of the Pennsylvania
recently made a mile on the Jersey Mea-
COWS, where engines were gathered from
different parts of the system between Phlla-
dell hia and Pittsburg. Each engine drew
two cars. They started from the terminal
station at Jersey city. The Baldwin COM
pound" and the johnny Bull an English
engine, had demonstrated their utility an
drawers of heavy tfains, but did not show
up as we'll on speed for a mile, as theq
covered the distance IN s~ixty-thres and
sl1ty-fve seconds respectively. The Schen-
eotady engine did the mile in just fifty
thres seconds, which is equalt to seventy-two
miies an hour. This was considered good
time, but the Pennsylvania's own, No. "a
made III her own shops, did better, doing
the mile In to.ty-ssyeu seconds.
