MISSOURI RIVER BARGE LINE
Project Launched by Kansas City, Which
Asks Omaha to Help
OBJECT IS CHEAPER FREIGHT RATES
with Constant Opposition OF ChicaEO
Missouri River cities Have
DiRcuIty in Getting
Fair Treatment.

Omaha and Kansas City may get to-
gether and establish a line Of barges on
the Missouri river for the purpose OF
reducing rates on freight shipments TO
and from Missouri river points
The matter will be put before the Omaha
Commercial club and the Grain exchange
by f. p. Kirkendsll, who was approached
on the subject in Kansas City Wednesday
by a committee Of the Kansas City Cham
Der of Commerce. This body is consider
ing seriously the launching of the project.
and has sent a man east to find out the
cost of building bsrges. Its members
believe that with the cooperation OF
Omaha a transportation system could be
put in operation on the Missouri which
would completely demoralize existing rail
rates and compel a reduction.
Chicago always has been against us on
the matter of freight rates, and always
will be-" said Mr. Kirkendall. That city
fights against every rate proposition that
will beneht the Missouri river cities. II
is hard to get any reductions from the
railroads with Chicago working against
US, but with water transportation in our
favor, the railroads would be compelled
to do something. We can send our corn
and wheat down the Missouri and the
Mississippi and we can bring back our
same route at a much less rate than we
are now paying the railroads.
McVann Doubts the Success.
Secretary McVann of the Omaha Grain
exchange says grain could be shipped from
Omaha to New Orleans by water much
cheaper than it now goes, and that dry
goods and merchandise could be brought
| in from New York by way of New Orleans
n a 70 oh
| from New York to the Missouri river by
| rail. Mr.. McVann doubts the feasibility
| of the plan, citing the failure of a similar
| project several years ago. The first
venture came to grief by the sinking OF
the steamboats, which Kansas City placed
on the river. This same danger would
have to be encountered again until pilots
came to- know the river.
THE greatest advantage of a barge line y
says the Kansas City Star, would be
safety from either fire or snags If fire got
beyond control on one barge 1t could be
separated from the other four, towed by
the same boat and only one-ffth of the
cargo would be lost II a snag should &c
through one of the barges it could be
buoyed up by the boat and other barges
until the damage was either repaired or the
cargo transferred to one OF the other
barges AS the loaded barges would draw
the most water, It would always be one
OF the $500 crafts that would be snagged
or grounded, and the towboat would
always be free to render assistance to
disabled barge"
II is estimated that ive barges of Do
tons each and a towboat would cost the
same amount as one steamboat of 800 toni
capacity.

EARTHQUAKE AT AUDITORIUM
Great Moving Picture show of the
San Francisco Disaster Begins
Next Monday Night.

Beginning on next Monday night, and
running four nights the great moving pic
ture show of the San Francisco disaster
will hold the stage at the Auditorium.
These moving pictures were taken by Miles
Bros. of San Francisco, the same arm who
produced the superb moving pictures of the
Britt-Nelson prize fight. Miles Bros have
a worldwide reputation for taking the best
moving pictures obtainable, and 1t is safe
to say that their pictures Of the San Fran
cisco disaster are by far the best obtained.
This series Of moving pictures will take
the spectator on a trip up Market street
as 1t appeared before the earthquake and
Are. 1t will show the buildings falling. the
flames eating their way from block to
block, the fremen struggling with the de-
vouring elements and dynamitng the
buildings and the stricken people hurry
ing hither and thither in wild confusion.
1t will also show the people camping in
the park and the distribution OF food and
clothing and, strange as II may seem in
the face of such appalling disaster, II will
show some very comical and amusing
sights particularly among the jewellers in
Golden Gate park. where millionaires and
laborers were associated together on a
common level. II must be said to the ever
lasting credit of the people of San Fran
cisco that they withstood this appalling
calamity with a courage and cheerfulness
almost superhuman, and while thousands
were rendered homeless and obliged to sleep
and eat in the open air in Golden Gate
park. there were many incidents OF cheer
fulness and even humor, which helped to
tighten the gloom and inspire the people
with new hope.
These great moving pictures have been
shown In Shubert's theater. Brooklyn, and
| the I<law & Erlanger theaters OF New
York and Boston. where they drew large
houses. They are beyond question the
finest pictures taken of the San Francisco
disaster.
These pictures will be put on by Mr..
Edward Vinton, an expert moving picture
man OF many years experience. Matinees
win begin at o'clock and the evening
performance at $50 o'clock.

light.
The men were able without great diff
Guilty to keep the schooner clear of water,
but losing his bearings in the thick snow,
Capt. Alley brought his vessel too near
the light, and at about o'clock in the
evening she was carried onto the lodges.
A great hole was torn in the hull and the
crew could make no headway against the
water.
The thick weather gave no chance of
signaling the Stony Beach station for
assistance, but the men made known their
position to the keeper of the Boston light.
The keeper of the light, with the small
crew of men on the island, entered
their boat and quickly reached the fast
sinking vessel, and Capt. Alley and his
crew Of five were taken to the lighthouse.
They were landed in Boston by tug the
next day.
The vessel will be total loss. She was
built at East Haven, Conn.,, in 1873, and
measured 43 tons net. She hailed from
New Haven, Conn. The cargo of clay was
consigned to Winslow & Co., OF Portland
