FAST TRAINS NOW A FAD.

All railroads leading in and out Of
Omaha are being attacked with fast
train spasms and the first month Of 1899
will go down in the history of western
lines as one in which more records
We're broken and more fast schedules
introduced than for many years. The
Burlington and Northwestern flyers
came in ahead of time again this morn
ing, having made their third race across
the 50O-miie stretch from Chicago 10
Omaha without a hitch. The North
western arrived at SIP, three minutes
ahead of the schedule, and the Burling-
ton reached the transfer at 1850, five
minutes before its schedule called for
the arrival of the train. Neither COM
pany had n special incidents of the
trip to report and all employees in the
operating departments of the two roads
lots as if a mile for every forty seconds
consumed is an everyday affair.
But the event that is calculated to
complicate matters in western railroad
circles more than ven the race aginst
time between the Northwestern and
the Burlington lines is the published
plan of the Rock Island to bring a new
train into Omaha carrying passengers
rs well as the eastern fast mail nearly
two hours ahead OF present passenger
schedules between Omaha and Chicago.
Sunday night the Rock Island will
start its train from Chicago at 1855
o'clock, putting it into Omaha at s the
next morning. This train will make
connection en- route at Englewood with
the Lake Shore and get it's share of the
fast mail, as we'll as bringing a passen-
ger equipment along. The train will
be the Chicago-Omaha flyer.
Other trains out Of Chicago for the
Missouri river points leave at 6 and
6. 3 0 giving the Rock Island a clear
lead of one hour and twenty-five min
utes over present schedules Of trains
carrying passengers.
For a long time, by common consent,
the Chicago-Omaha lines have con-
sumed fourteen and fifteen hours be-
tween Chicago and Omaha. No posi-
tive agreement on this time was ever
in existence, but each company regard
ed a reduction in that time in the ma
ture of a cut in rates and abstained
from a change of schedule that would
require faster time. The Rock Islands
break in this direction is liable to force
other competing lines to reduce the
| time OF their fastest passenger trains,
or perhaps put a passenger equipment
on the present mail flyers.
The representatives Of one Chicago
Omaha line said that his company
would probably reduce the time of the
( regular Omaha evening train to meet
the time of the proposed Rock Island

UNITED STATES A M

Hong Kong, Jan. 5.-Leading repre-
s~erlJatives of the Philippine junta in
Hong Kong, in the course Of an inter
view with the correspondent Of the AS
ISOLATED Press today, declared that the
serious crisis in the Philippines is due
to what they designate as overt, unfair
treatment Of the Filippinos by the
United States"
The Fflippinos, according to the
junta representatives, n determined
to prevent the landing OF the Ameri-
cans at Iloilo, and may, as a last resort
destroy the city for strategical reasons
The junta insists that a rupture Of
the friendly relations now existing be-
tween the "Filippino national govern
ment' and the American executive II
imminent. and that hostilities art
probable, unless what is characterized
as the Unreasonable, unfair and over.
bearing policy of the Americans" Ii
modified. They say tho Philippines
would deeply regret such a rupture
but would accept Vt a. inevitable"
In concluding the interview th<
spokesman Of the junta representative
said:

Island |" very enthusiastic over the de-
parture of his company and asserts
that in future the Rock Island will be
an active factor in the fast mail service
between the east and west, as well as
continuing in the bunch of leaders for
fast passenger service. 1t is no secret
that other Chicago-Omaha lines cam
make this time with ease and a general
reduction of the time OF the passenger
trains of those lines is likely to follow
the Rock Islands change.

trains at the depots on Main street the
crowds scattered, some making for Broad
way and other streets along the line of
march, while others lined up the side
walks along Main street Broadway from
Seventh street to the Methodist church was
almost packed solid with people and the
mounted police and marshals had consid-
cradle difficulty in clearing a way for the
parade.
The parade formed on South Main street
and was at least one and a half miles
long, with forty bands in the line filling
the air with martial music from one end
of the long column to the other On the
reviewing stand at Broadway and Fourth
street were Governor Shaw, Mayor Victor
Jennings, Mayor f. e. Moores of Omaha,
Major T. S. Clarkson, Colonel Stanton,
Major Howard of the South Dakota volun-
teers, Jules Lumbard, Judge Reed l.. T.
Genung, Lafe Young, ID. G. Bloomer, Mrs.
Creighton, Mrs. Byers and a number of
other notables. The Flfty-frst regiment,
headed by the regimental band, brought
up the rear of the column, Colonel Loper
and staff officers being mounted. AS the
boys wheeled into line at the Rock Island
depot the cheering commenced and the
ovation they received on the line OF march
until Baylss park was reached was one that
they or those that witnessed 1t will never
forget. AS they passed the reviewing
stand the cheering was simply tremendous
and the boys marched with a swinging
step that showed they were not only pleased
at the welcome given them, but were proud
OF the grand demonstration. Colonel Loper
and the other officers repeatedly dotfed their
caps in response to the cheering of the
crowds. Many a soldier during the line OF
march broke ranks to shake hands or greet
some acquaintance or relative that he spied
among the crowd. Many of the relatives of
the boys not willing to lose sight of them
for even a moment marched along the side
with them. The column broke ranks on
reaching Bayliss park, where short exer-
cises were held.
Welcomed by Governor shaw.
A large, bow-shaped speakers stand had
been erected in the park, inside of which
a space was roped off from the crowd for
the regiment. Into this they were led by
the veterans drum and fife corps of Omaha
Abe Lincoln post of Council Bluffs acting
as escort. BY the time the parade was over
the crowd covered the large square and
stretched clear across the surrounding
streets.
John N. Baldwin of Council Bluffs an
nounced that Congressman w. p Hepburn,
who was to have been the president OF the
day, had failed to arrive and that he would
act in his place.
