INVADE up. HEADQUARTERS
Throngs of Visitors Received by Of
ficials in New Building.
RECEPTION LASTS ALL DAY
Little Work Was Done. Everyone
Having Been Kept Busy En-
tertRininE the Many
Guests.

Regardless of the fact that the mer-
curry followed the tube to a point con-
siderably below zero and the brisk north
west wind blew the snow into drifts along
the streets, several thousand people Wis
tied the new Union Pacific headquarters
yesterday. The affair was in the nature of
a reception. but was entirely informal.
Practically complete in every detail,
the 1,250O00 office building. twelve
stories high, at Fifteenth and Dodge
streets, was thrown open to the public at
10 o'clock and from that hour until clos
ing time in the afternoon the crowds
surged through the corridors, the public
and the private rooms. There was no
place that the keep out" sign was Wis
ible and the people OF Omaha were just
as much at home in the private office of
President Mohler as in the space outside
of the rail of the public ticket office.
All day long the visitors trouped
through the offices and departments.
From Cellar to Garret.
They secured information concerning
the sending of wireless telephone and

feeding of the furnaces and then went
up into the offices of the treasurer,
where thousands of dollars were being
paid 10 the employees, the occasion being
the regular monthly pay day for the
l,OOO or more persons who work in the
building.
Everybody connected with the Union
Pacific Railroad company, from Presi-
dent Mohler down TO the humblest en-
ploye, came in for congratulations. There
was a profuslon of flowers everywhere,
huge bouquets of roses and other cut
flowers reposlng on the desks, having
been sent in by friends.
Although there was a semblanee Of
routine work during the morning hours,
the work that was performed did not
amount to much, as visitors did not hes
itate to bolt into an office, no matter II
an official was debating a private or
personal communication to higher Of
flcial, or a friend.
Everybody Lends n Hand.
No one in particular did the honors.
The heads of the various departments
were all in thier rooms to receive. AS the
crowds came these heads showed the
visitors through their respective depart
ments and passed them on, the clerks
helping to answer the many questions
and explain the intricacies Of scientific
railroading.
The elevator men, for the first time
we're clad in their spilS and span dark
blue new suits and caps of the same
color, ornamented with gold buttons and
gold braid. In the corridors there was
an army of janitors and assistants, each
man clad in a spotless uniform Of white.
| while these men were not at work dur
ing the day they gave practical lllustra-
tions Of how to chase dirt.

An unexpected condition has arisen
in the matter of lowering the force
main of the Marion Water company
across the new channel of the Little
Scioto river. For the past four weeks
force of men has been at work

cd of procedure has seemingly been
successful until within the last few
days when the workmen struck quick
sand and the work was stopped.
II Is necessary To lower the pipeline
twelve feet It has now been drop
ped nine and one-half feet and the
quicksand has temporarily stopped
progress. During the last three weeks
the big dredge has been held up
waiting until the stretching" was
complete so II could proceed with the
deepening of the river at this point
Engineer Ault refused to be response
bile for conditions and the result was
that meeting of the county COM
missloners and the dredging people
was held .....,.....
II was finally decided to let the
dredge pass on down the river making
the necessary repairs, and Timothy
Foohey indemnifies the county against
loss because of the vac;Sing up of
thu river while the work is in pro-
gress. Mr.. Foohey will see that the
water pipe goes down to grade and
furnishes bond of $4,000 to get II
