Denver Gateway of the Union Pacific
Thrown Open to 1t for Freight
and Passenger Traffic.

Chicago, Sept. 9.-The Denver Gate
way Of the Union Pacific, which has
remained closed since 1896. has been
thrown open to the Rock Island road
for freight and passenger traffic, and to
the Burlington for freight traffic. This
radical change in the policy of the UNI
ion Pacific caused great surprise today
when it became generally known. A
new agreement regarding traffic was
entered into early in August, but has
been kept secret until today. The
greatest advantage to the Rock Island
will come in traffic destined for North
Pacific coast points, which hitherto
has been turned owe to the Union Pa
ciic 1t the river. Under the new ar
rangements the Rock Island will en-
joy a long haul on all this business,
