Tariff Sheet Showing OId-Time Rates
on Union Pacific.
The oldest known freight tariff sheet of
the Union Pacific has just been found In
the loft of the company's depot at Grand
Island. 1t beare the date of June 1, 1870.
Assistant General Freight Agent Lane has
had 1t brought into this city, framed and
placed on exhibition in his office. Com
pared with the tariff sheet of today, it Is a
curious looking instrument, and quotes some
wonderful, as well as fearful, rates. 1t rs
attested to by c. G.. Hammond, gener.I
superintendent; William Martin, general
freight agent, and II. Brownson, assistant
general freight agent.
The rates printed on the tariff sheet show
that 1t cost $525 to ship a carload of cattle
from Ogden to Omaha at that time, now the
rate is $132.15 From Cheyenne here the
rate was then 1925, now it is SOS. From
North Platte the rate thea was $3.50, now
1t is $43. From Grand Island the rate was
sS5. so, now it is $50. From Columbus the
rate was then $50, now it is $25. The lumber
rates were then about three times the pres.
ent rates. Live stock rates were then identi.
cal with rates on cook stoves. These rates
parted company a long time ago. Then the
company's employees were warned against
loading more than tea tons on a car; nova,
days thirty tons is considered a fair load.
Among the special instructions at that time
issued to agents were the following:
!, Stoves in carloads, loaded and unloaded, at
car rates for live stock"
"Pine, cottonwood and Eastwood will be
classed as soft lumber"
Cars must not in any instance be loaded
with over ten Q0) tons, except in the ship
ment OF -four, when one hundred Q00) bar.
rels may be loaded In one car"
