RAILWAY GOSSIP.
Omaha Brokers Allowed To Manipulate
Transcontinental Rates.

OMAHA, Feb ia report, generally
believed in railroad circles, states that
the Union Pacific is permitting brokers 20
manipulate round-trip tickets to the
Pacific coast. A telegram received from
Chicago this morning stated that the
Omaha brokers were greatly disturbing
the trans:ontinental rate by selling
round trip tickets to San Francisco for 50
and single-trip tickets for $50 on the re-
bate plan, reading over the Union Pacific.
The lines doing business west bound
from Omaha Immediately commenced au
investigation, but met with little salts
faction.
At the headquarters of the Union
Pacific it WAS claimed that everything
was straight aud above board, and that if
the brokers were cutting the rate they
were doing it simply as Il flyer, as the
books of the company showed that no
ticket had been sold tor less than tariff
rates.
Mr.. Lomax left for Chicago tonight to
take hand in the rate controversy. The
breach Is growing wider every day, and a
rate war OF formidable proportions is un-
doubtedly brewing.
Mr.. Lomax will endeavor to bring
order out of chaos, bnt he is not at all
saDguine of success la the meantime
the brokers' are doing the business.
President X. X. Cable of the Rock Is
land arrived in Omaha today, and ac-
knowledged that the trip over the system
was for the purpose of ascertaiuing
where moro economy could be practiced.
Said he:
I'VE have cut down our forces consider
ably, due to stringent times; hnt the cut
is not enough to suit Us. We have reduced
our forces on the road aud in the shops,
but something more must be done to meet
decreasing earnings. OF course we want
to be fair; at the same time conditions
are snch as TO warrant still further cur
failing of expenses. The -oad is in very
fair shape. and we are able TO handle all
the business that comes our way but
am sorry TO say tha, there is iittls business.
| think rates are pretty generally main
tanned, but we need a greater movement
OF freight than We are now e njoying to
meet obligations"

turb the finaucial and general business affairs of the people.
 The secretary presents a plan which would relieve the government from sJme of it's burden, secure q safe and elastic national and state bank currency and re- suit ultimately in the permanent retire. ment of the United States legal tender notes of both classes.
 The features Of this plan include the re- peal of ali laws authorizing deposit Of United States bonds as security for circula- tion, permission tJ national banks under certain requirements to issue notes to an amount not exceeding 75 per centum of tn ir paid capital, requiring each national banking association to redeem its own notes at it's own offices; providing safety fund for tho immediate redemption of cir culating notes oi Jailed banks; repeal Of laws imposing restrictions on reduction and increase of national bank circulation and of laws requiring banks to keep n re- serve on account of deposits; exemp;ing from taxation, under certain provisions, circu ating notes Issued by banking corpo- ra ions, which transact no other than a banking business, together with other measures which the secretary explains.
 He gives at length his reason for the re- peal, as his plan proposes, of all the pro- visions of existing laws which require na- tional banks to hold a fixed reserve against deposits.
 Every prudently managed bank, if left free 10 conduct it's deposit and discount business in the manner most advantageous 10 Its owu interests and the interests Of its patrons, will undoubtedly keep on hand a reasonable reserve to mect tot only all the ordinary demands upon 1t, but to provide for such emergencies as are liable to occur in the community where it is located, but it ought uot to be prohibited by law from using such reserve for the only purpose # was designed to accomplish.
