ing from the decision of Judge Kelly in
the West side Omaha spur track matter,
but from opinions given 1t is scarcely
possible that his request will be complied
with
While attacking the right of the
Omaha to abut the baths with its tracks,
DR.. Ohage's scheme is really to force,
for the city, a higher award for ground
taken than the condemnation commits
sion saw At to give. The doctor is lib
eral in his denunciation of what he calls
a "niggardly" sum, and says he will
make every possible effort to secure an
appeal.
While DR.. Ohage and a few individuals
see what they call an Insignificant sum
Of money for the city, there is q growing
opinion among the officials in general
that the city Jared as good as could be
expected. ..-.-lr.
City Engineer Claussen estimates the
territory absorbed for the use of the road
in area about a quarter of a block, and
thinks $500 fair amount, considering
that the property is on the West side
and Of little value. He does not agree,
however, with the proposition to give
parties having property on ground be-
longing to the city larger amount for
damage to their leasehold than the city
obtains for the section taken.
OHAGE MAKES A, STATEMENT.
The legal department is still engaged
in examining the report of the commits
sion on awards and explains its inability
to give decisive answer as to how, In
it's opinion, the city Jared until the ex-
animation is completed
While some few technicalities may be
objected to, sufficient inference IS given
to show that if an appeal IS taken 1t will
not be on the accommodation of the le-
gal department. They are satisfied that
the city was fairly well treated.
I'VE have had a taste of Omaha meth
DDS before" Indignantly remarked DR.
Ohage yesterday, when asked what his
course would be, land the city will get
another taste If l am not mistaken
Their promises are easily broken. To be
concise, St. Paul only gets a money
award of about 5000 and how far will
that go IN the construction OF a street
from the Wabasha street bridge to the
baths. The city has no money with
which to do the work, and the result WI
be that the road will get out OF rip
rapping, as arranged for in Judge Kelly's
decision. I am going to ask the alder
men to pass that appeal decision, and
have several other schemes which I vii
not make public for a while. When thai
track was proposed I made predictions

SHORT ON CARS.
Rock Island Officials Pressed to
Handle Their Traffic.

Rock Island traffic officials are al their
wits ends to find cars enough TO take
care OF all the Oklahoma traffic forced
upon them. The shortage pertains TO
passenger and freight cars The food Of
passengers into the territory has IN no
wise abated since the distribution Of the
government lands took place.
Oklahoma has had a tremendous wheat
crop this year. 1t IS being shipped out
Of the territory as fast as it can be
loaded into the cars This IS the fourth
consecutive year In which a big wheat
crop has been harvested and consequent
ly the people have plenty OF ready
money. There IS also going to be heavy
cotton crop. Last year cotton netted the
growers $50 per acre. 1t promises to do
as much this year and any crop that can
be made reproduce 80 much revenue must
make the growers ricn in very few
years. Under such circumstances It is
not surprising that so many people are
going TO Oklohoma.
The Rock Island and Santa Fe have the
whole territory to themselves. The Santa
Fe has adopted plans for building go
miles Of additional tracks in the terri
field laying out routes for these extern
sions. It is expected that the operation
Of these extensions Will be profitable
from the very moment OF their opening.
The increase In population of the terri
tory must create a corresponding In
crease In the volume of traffic into It and
out of it that will be Of imm9nse ad
vantage to both these roads.

STATE BOARD OF HEALTH ISSUES
STRINGENT REGULATIONS.

At a special meeting of the state board
of health held Friday evening, 1t was
decided that neither school teachers nor
conclusion Of the summer holidays I'M
less they can produce certificate show
ing that they have been successfully vac
cnated since the year 1886, or. in lieu
of this, they must produce a certificate
from some reputable physician showing
that they are immune to vaccination.
School boards in all parts of the state and
officers OF boards of health have been
notified to this effect and the state board
is determined that the rule shall be rigid
ly enforced. This order, which was made
in vew of the fact that smallpox Is tech
nically epidemic throughout the state,
is expected to create some confusion In
Ihe city schools, as it can scarcely be
expected that the parents of all the chill
dren who will attend will remember to
comply with the regulation before they
send their children to school
The prevalence of smallpox in the va
rious lumber camps in the northern art
Of the state has not been overlooked,
and an order has been issued imposing
the same conditions upon all lumbarmen,
mining superintendent, railway super
intendents and employers of labor gener-
ally.
The production of a certificate of sue
cessful vaccination is to be made an es-
sential condition to the men returning to
work in camps, mines and railroad
grades.

HUNDREDS OF CHICAGO TICKETS
IN HANDS OF LOCAL
sCALPERS
WIS. CENT. GOES A-sLEUTH1NG
Burlington, Milwaukee and North
Western lines Up Against Prop
Osition on which They
Stand to Lose.

The travelling public of st. Paul will be
interested in the news that they can
travel from st. Paul to Chicago over the
best lines for 81. OF course these 81
ticket cannot be purchased from the
ticket officers of the lines in question
but every broker in this city IS handling
them. There are 500 OF these tickets in the
hands of local scalpers, who sell them
for 81 each. The lines the tickets are
good over are the Chicago, Milwaukee
q St Paul, the Chicago, St. Paul, Mime
apolis s. Omaha and the Burlington
The news that this vast bulk of tickets
is in the hands OF the brokers, and that
the tickets are being sold at such a
rtdiculously low figure has just leaked
out through the efforts of the Wisconsin
Central road. The tickets were sold in
Chicago according TO a special agree
ment. The round-trip rate from Chicago
TO st. Paul was fixed at 80 per cent Of
the one-way. rate, or S1O.25. This Is 81 Is
less than the regular one-way rate. The
tickets were placed on sale June to 10
July l to 10, Aug. ! TO 10. and are to be
sold Sept. to ~, all tickets being good
until Oct. 81. Naturally, scores Of people
bought these round trip tickets, as they
could come to st. Paul on them for less
than the regular one-way rate, and could
then dispense of them to scalpers The
scdlpers became loaded with the tickets
and are now reaping a rich harvest.
Recently the Wisconsin Central line got
wind of the wholesale dealing in Chicago
tickets by the brokers, and made a COM
plant to the Western Passenger asso-
citation. The road demanded that the as
ISOLATION send men to ST Paul and test
the market. 1t was also demanded that
the test be not made in the regular way
by buying two or three tickets, but by
purchasing a lot Of them. This was done.
and as a result nearly 100 tickets were
corraled by the special agents and now
there is much merriment among the pas
senger and ticket officials OF the Wiscon-
sin Central, Minneapolis & St Louis and
Great Western lines over the clever raid
1t Is one Of the rules of the associa-
ton that every ticket picked up IN this
way must be redeemed by the road over
which 1t reads at full tariff value. Con
sequently the Burlington, Milwaukee and

down about 1000 for the tickets picked
up in st. Paul The roads will paw out

surplus men seem to have already gone
out to the harvest fields, and there is
even dearth of labor for purely local
purposes.
An employment agent who has been
handling harvest labor for many years
says that the small supply of men this
year has been due largely to the alarmist
reports sent out while the heated spell
was at it's height all over the Northwest.
1t was then heralded far and wide that
the crops would be total failures or near
ly so, and believing the string fiends' -
version of the situation, thousands of
men fastened to secure employment of
some other kind. Now they are placed
and do not care to go out into the grain
fields for a few weeks.
Another feature of the situation in
sections where the crop has been cut is
that there IS a scarcity of threshing out
hts. Owners of machines, recognizing
this, are said to be asking higher prices.
In some sections engineers are being Of
fered SIS per day, but are holding out for
from Sc to So.
Arrangements have been made by the
Great Northern, Northern Pacific ana
500 to take out at least 1000 harvesters
a day this week, but the outlook is that
it Will be impossible to secure more than
eco per day, at the most.
