FULL FARE FOR TROOPS,
Railroads Refuse To Make Conces.
slons To the Government.

OMAHA, Jan. 29.--The Union Pa
CHIC and Northwestern railroads have
refused to make any special rates to
the government for the shipment of
soldiers en- route to the Phil ppines to
and from San Francisco. Yesterd ay
blds were opened in Omaha for the
transportation of 5000 men, 500
horses and a large amount of equip
ment from Fort Robinson and Russell
to San Francisco.
Only the Union Pacific and North
western submitted bids, and both we're
for regular and full fares. Railroad
officials say the government will Sc
cure no more cheap fares.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29%.-Although
the Union Pacific and Northwestern
railroads have refused to make a spe.
cial rate for troops bound for San
Francisco, the quartermaster gen.
erals department will not delay the
sailing OF 600 men for the Philippines.
The government enjoys a military
rate OF $3.50 from Omaha to San
Francisco, as against the commercial
rate of $40. BY reason of the fact
that the Santa Fee, which is q land
grant road, is enabled, through its
connecting lines out of Omaha, to
make the rate S27. so, the other roads
are permitted to carry troops for the
same fare.
The interstate commerce commission
has held, however, that the new rail.
road rate law has not modified the
original interstate commerce act to
the extent that it prevents the car.
riage, storage or handling of property
free. or at reduced rates, for the gov.
eminent.
While admitting that The law, in
terms, was limited to property, the
opinion also was expressed that re-
duced rates may be allowed for trans
portation of persons, ION the broad
ground that the allowance of specia.
and lower rates to the government is
benefit to the entire people and, there
fore, not a discrimina tion."
1t was stated at the war department
that the refusal of the railroa ads tt
make a special rate would, not neces
state a request to congress for addi
tional funds.

SUCCESSFUL SUGAR SEASON.
Product Of Billings Factory Valued
At a Million Dollars.

BILLINGS, Jan. 29.-After a most
successful run of about two months,
the beet sugar factory of this city
closed its operative season last night.
During this time approximately TO-
100000 pounds Of GRADUATED sugar
has been manufactured, which repre-.
sents in Montana, a retail value OF
about 81, 900, 600. In round numbers,
10000 tons of beets were ground and
in the process of manufacture, $4,000
IONS of coal, 600 tons of coke and j..
600 tons of lime rock were consumed.
During the operating season, more
than 500 workmen we're employed and
with the exception Of the Office force
and about fifty mech anics, the force
has been discharged for the season,
but the field force will be kept busy
until April, the seeding time, in ar
ranging necessary details. AS the
growers will cultivate about twice the
number of acres during the coming
season, a much larger force of Ia.
borers will be employed, and under
the new schedule, these persons will
receive about ten per cent. greater
wages this year than over those OF
last.
The sugar company has taken up the
stock feeding industry, and is using
beet pulp almost exclusively for the
purpose of fattening the sheep and
cattle for market. Several thousand
head of sheep and cattle are now in
the feeding yards of the company and
are doing exceptionally we'll on the
residue of the beet. During the au-
tumn many ions of this pulp was sold
to the stockmen near this city at a
cost of 40 cents per ton. Recently a
prominent stockman from Colorado
was in the city endeavoring to pur'
chase ten or fifteen thousand tons of
the feed to be shipped to Colorado.
While it usually takes three years to
fully develop a sugar beet territory 50
as to furnish the factory with a sufi'
cient supply of beets, it is evident that
a capacity crop will result if the COM
ing seasons plans are carried out.
1t is believed that fully 100 900 tons
of beets will be ground by the big fac
tory next season, and the immense
payroll incident t. both the raising o.
the crop and the conversion of then
into the granulated product, will nat
urally be productive of much good tc
the city and vicinity.
