OMAHA GETS NEW TARIFFS
City Takes Steps Nearer to Fair Basis with
Chicago on Freight.
TWO ROADS PREPARE REVISED SHEETS
Northwestern and Milwaukee Are
Arranging Schedules Reducing
Rates ON Grain from COun-
try North and West.

Nearer grows the day when Omaha will
Chicago and Minneapolis for the grain
trade of South Dakota and northeastern
Nebraska.
Both the Northwestern and the Milwau-
.kee, the two roads which reach this ter
ritory, are preparing new tariff schedules
reducing the rates on grain from the coun-
try In question TO Omaha. They have In
vited Secretary McVann Of the Omaha
Grain exchange TO assist them in making
the tariff, and have assured him that
everything compatible with reason will be
done for the local grain trade. Mr.. Nc
Vann Is now working with them.
The Invitation came after some show Of
activity on the part OF the exchange At
a recent meeting, the exchange. In view
OF the fact that these two roads had ac-
eomplished nothing tangible in the way OF
reform, after having made promises sew
eral months ago, decided TO ask the roads
some pointed questions about what they
expected to do and when they would do A.
The result OF negotiations showed that
the work on the proposed tariff schedules
had progressed farther than the grain
men thought. Assurance Is given now that
nothing will hinder the establishment OF
the new basis soon.

to southern points by the Frisco road,
which is a part of the Rock Island sys-
TEN. The matter has caused big stir
in local grain circles, as such a rate would
take away a large amount Of business
from, Omaha to Kansas City. The rate is
through rate on grain from points in
Nebraska south OF the Union Pacific, to
Memphis, the cut being entirely absorbed
by the Frisco, which will take the grain
from the other roads at Kansas City. 1t
is to go into effect within a few days.
President wattles of the Grain exchange
says the exchange will make a vigorous
tight against the action of the Frisco.
An injunction could be secured against the
rate. he says. but It is thought the matter
can he settled peaceably.
II the Frisco insists on establishing the
rate Omaha looks to the Illinois Central
for salvation. II reaches Omaha and not
Kansas City, while the Frisco reaches
Kansas City and not Omaha. Last year
the Illinois Central carried several hun
bred cars OF grain south which 1t would
not have hauled and which would have
gone through Kansas City II the proposed
rate OF the Frisco had been in effect. The
Illinois Central Is expected to make a cut
| in the present instance.

In his early Hartford days Mark
Twain took an active interest in base
ball in common with most of his fell
low citizens. While attending an ex-
citing game he lost a gold-headed um-
brella, which he advertised for in the
local papers somewhat after this fash
ion:
"Lost-$1O reward; gold-headed
umbrella was lost by the undersigned
on the grandstand at the baseball
ground on Saturday. 1t was probably
stolen from him while he was en-
gagged in cheering the Hartfords for
their victory over the Providence nine
presumably stolen by red-headed,
freckled-faced boy about II years old.
For the body of the boy and the um-
brella delivered at my house on Farm
ington avenue $40 will be paid. For
the body of the boy or the umbrella
separately $5 for either. For the boy
alive, nothing under any circum-
stances" This advertisement was
signed with his full name and address.
