Gossip and Matters of Interest
in Railroad Circles.

Chicago. Jan. 25.=A. B. Stickney,
president of the Great Western rail-
road, dropped bomb into the camp of
the western railroads yesterday. The
other roads running TO and beyond the
Missouri river wanted to know why
the Great Western was contemplating
a cut in the dry goods rates to Mis-
souri, river points and which the Chi
cagO merchants claim viii enable the
merchants of Kansas City and other
points in the west to undersen them,
and President Stckney answered them
much to their CONSERVATION. He told
them that the Burlington had been
cutting rates secretly for three years.
paying rebates to the Missouri river
jObbers through their agent. George L.
Ihomas, who posed as a freight broker
In New York. Mr.. Stickney says that
his road is merely proposing to an
nounce tariff which will be approxi-
lnately the same as that given secretly
by the Burlington and other roads.
Ihe Burlington has been pointing
the finger of suspicion against the
Great Western for many years, but no
proof was presented President Stick
ney has been grubbing after facts, and
it is evident now that he has them and
that they incriminate the Burlington.
OF course George L. Thomas has been
indicted by the federal grand jury for
paying rebates, and the Burlington
road and George H. Crosby, its freight
traffic manager, have been indicted
for the same thing. But among rail-
road men it is not believed that the
government officials have as mucn
proof against the Burlington as Presi-
dent Stiekney has, and it is suggested
that it would be a good thing if he
would join J. c. Stubs Tattlers' club
and lay his information before the in
terstate commerce commission.
The Great Western has not entered
into a contract yet with the Missouri
river dry goods jobbers to bring their
freight in car load lots from Chicago
at reduced rates. but it is understood
that the contract is about to be made.
Chicago and St. Louis dry goods mer-
chants are protesting vigorously, and
the other Missouri river lines are pro-
testing. and so Mr.. Stickney is coming
to Chicago to talk the matter over be-
fore he announces his new rates.
The other roads do not know what
to do. OF course, they can lay the
blame upon the Burlington, but they
viii have to meet the rates just the
same. They think maybe it would be
better if they can get Mr. Stickney to
reduce the rates to 40 or so cents a
hundred on ali dry goods in car loads
or less, but not to put in a commodity
rate, which without doubt would
spread both east and west of the river,
and before long would cover an ex-
tremely large territory.

TANK CAR WRECKED ENGINE.
Thirty thousand Gallons of Oil Runs
Over River.

Tulsa, I. T, Jan. 25.-With brake
man making frantic efforts to stop it,
and approaching an incoming freight
al a speed of thirty miles an hour, q
tank car on the Frisco railroad dashed
down a steep grade in the local yards
yesterday afternoon and coIlided with
the freight engine. demolishing both the
car and the engine. and injuring the
brakeman Thirty thousand gallons of
refined oil were spilled and ran to the
Arkansas river where it quickly spread
over the surface.
The car was being switched in front
of the local passenger station, and was
given a shove towards the Arkansas
river bridge. A brakeman was on the
car. and after letting it run to a point
where the brake was necessary he
started to apply it. The apparatus re
fused to work Snd the car gained such
rapid headway that 1t soon Travelled at
about thirty miles an hour. Suddenly.
around a sharp curve the freight train
appeared. The brakeman tried to signal
them to stop but the engineer did not
see him. In jumping from the car the
brakeman sprained his ankle.
