REPORT TO THAT EFFECT

There is a well defined rumor current
In railroad circles to the effect that the
Rock Island is soon to abolish it's pas
senger station here and use that of the
Frisco. The change is said to be the re-
suit of the visit by Rock Island officials
paid Wichita about one month ago. The
most of the time spent here by the OFF,
cials was in an inspection of both the
Rock Island and Frisco stations.
When seen yesterday prominent
Frisco official said, in regard to the ru-
NOR: II think it hardly probable that
such a change is contemplated. OF
course 1 know no more about the matter
than you do, except what 1 have heard.
/ have my opinion of the fact that the
Frisco station, while adequate to the
needs of that company, would be entirely
too small for the Use of BOTH
Rumor has it that the change will be
effective by July 1. Another thing that
sustains the report of such consolida-
ton is that the Rock Island and Frisco
have had connecting tracks built at both
the north and south entrances to the city.

BACK FROM ST. LOUIS.
e. e. BIeckley Talks About the
Worlds Fair


E. E Beckley, travelling passenger
agent for the Missouri Pacific of this city
returned yesterday from ten days visit
| in st. Louis, where he attended meet
ing of thirty or forty agents from that
road. The meeting was held for the pur-
pose of discussing some very important
questions concerning the passenger busi-
ness. The Missouri Pacific agents are
also attending the dedications of the vari-
Gus state buildings. Col. Bleckley said
that this time they attended the dedica-
ton of the Texas building.
He said that he had the best and most
enjoyable time he ever had in his life.
The Chicago fair was very small thing
in comparison with the st. Louis show,
according to his opinion, and he should
be able to say, as he saw both of them.
He told of the many beautiful buildings
with their inimitable architectural finish.
These must be wonders of art and genius
for Col Bleckley could not find words to
paint their beauty, and everybody knows
what a vocabulary a travelling passenger
agent has. But he did not get to see half
of what he wished to see. He was there
about week and, in his estimation, one
can only see the beginning of the fair in
that time.
"All of the exhibits are not yet in
place." explained Col. Bleckley. but they
are ready to be put in and everything will
be in its proper position by June % There
is more now than one can possibly see in
four weeks time and as there are great
many exhibits yet to be installed there
is no way of concluding just how long
it will require to go through the whole
thing
Col. Bleckley took especial care not to
forget to describe many of the fine build
ings. and the Pike he depicted with all
the grandeur of a poet. For one solid
mile there is nothing bat Pike. All kinds
of shows. but nothing except perfectly
clean and moral exhibitions. There are
sights there to see that are equal to a
trip around the world. To scenes Of pleas
ure and fun there is no end.
When Col. Bleckley was asked when he
considered the best time to so. he said
that he would advise the public TO go
while the thing is yet fresh and the
weather is not sultry and hot He said
that people are now wearing light over
coats in st. Louis. He also said that In
June the fair would be in the height of
its glory and everything could be seen at
its best. The weatner will not be so very
hot and the exhibitions will be new.
There will not be one single thing unfin
ished by June 10, and every exhibit will
be in position.
To talk with Col. Bleckley about the
trip is almost as good as If one had been
there But the thought OF the fair and
all OF the wonderful things 10 be seen
there makes one almosa heartsick. for
there are very few people who do not
want 10 attend. and there are still fewer
who Will not take the opportunity and so.
