first work, after ascertaining the con-

Upon receiving a damaged shipment at

people for the Democratic nomination

Doolittle is native of Cottonwood

UNLOAD ON OUTSIDE TRACKS
Nebraska Commission Gives Union Pa
cific Double Track Order.

Lincoln, Neb., July 16.-The recent
action of the state railway commas
sion in ordering Union Pacific trains
on its double track lines in this state
to unload and load passengers on the
outside of the tracks has caused con-
siderable comment among patrons Of
that road. The order was issued fol-
lowing hearing on complaint of Lex
ington citizens, who asked that they
be permitted to get on and off trains
between the two tracks.
The commission in making its de-
cision asserted that the rule promul-
gated by them in the matter is the
one followed by practically all of the
double track lines of the country, the
only two excepted being the North
western and the Lake Shore routes on
the Union Pacific the eaStbound trains
are operated on the south track of the
double line. while .Jestbound trains
are operated on the north track. The
opposite condition prevails upon the
two roads whose rules permit paSsen-
gers to unload differently. The opera
ton of trains on the Union Pacific is
similar to the general country road
rule of vehicles, which permits them
to pass each other by turning to the
right, while the Northwestern and
Lake Shore method of operation is the
reverse.

POSITIVE OF MERGER PLAN.
Recent Appraisement Forecasts c. &
S.-BurIington Combination.

Denver, Col, July 16.-The direc-
tors of the Chicago, Burlington &
Quincy railroad have ordered an ap-
praisement of the physical value of
the system, including every item from
ties, spikes and bolts to cars, locomo-
tives and terminal properties. That
work, according to a report in circu-
lation following the visit of the Bur-
lington officials to this city yesterday,
is preliminary to a big increase n
capital stock and the absorption of the
Colorado & Southern system.
The plan to merge the Colorado &
Southern and Burlington into one big
system extending from Chicago to
Denver and from Montana to the Gulf
of Mexico, is said to have been quietly
started soon after the Burlington &C
quired the Colorado road.
The Hill road purchased from Ed
win Hawley and associates, in Deem
Der. 1908, a majority of the stock of
the Colorado & Southern, for which it
paid $16,000,000.
Since then it is understood that
bankers representing the Burlington
have quietly gathered in all the Colo
RADIO & Southern stock offered on the
market, and now control approximate
" go per cent.
The plan which has been outlined
provides that the capital stock of the
Burlington will be increased to an
amount sufficient to cover the pres
ent issue of the Colorado & Southern
and that the latter roads bonds will
be absorbed by a general bond issue of
the Burlington.
