PLENTY OF CARS TO
HANDLE THE GRAIN
Railroads Able to Haul Wheat
as Fast as Farmers Bring
1t in.
MIX THE NEW WITH OLD

The situation on grain shipment
has temporarily eased up, according
to officials of the railroads carrying
Nebraska wheat to market. According
to John A. Munroe. vice president of
the Union Pacific, this may be due
in part to the bullish sentiments of
many of the farmers who are holding
their grain in hope of a continuing
rise in price. when you see a
farmer that is a bull on the grain
market no other bull can compare
with him." said Mr.. Munroe. 1--WE
are bringing in lots OF grain for the
Omaha elevators and they are in bet
ter shape than ever before to handle
the grain quickly, unloading the cars
and allowing us to return them tor
another cargo"
According to General Manager
Frank Walters of the Northwestern,
his road loaded 235 cars of grain in
Nebraska Wednesday, and has cars
enough to supply demand at present.
Some cars are being brought down
from Dakota fields, owing to the de-
creased yield in the northern states
where the crop has been seriously
injured by black rust and heat dam
age. Much of the Nebraska wheat is
being bought for the export market,
and Mr.. Walters estimates that half is
going to the Atlantic ports for ship
ment to Europe.
Mix With New Wheat.
Kansas wheat is moving in heavy
volume, but many shipments are be-
ing held on the chance Of a rise in
price. E. P. Hennessey, commercial
agent of the Rock Island, says that
his road is again able to supply cars
where they are needed. He also says
that many of the elevator men are
making a very good thing out Of the
old wheat stored in their elevators.
The crop last year was not of first
grade quality, and by mixing it with
the exceptionally heavy high grade
crop which Nebraska raised this
year they are able to raise the grade
of the mixture and get good profit
on what they have held.

Gold for Persons
Who Suggest Best
New Industry Ideas

One hundred and fifty dollars in
gold will be given by the Commercial
club in exchange for new ideas to
assist the @Omaha Industrial Plan"
A What and Why contest is
started today with the object of get
ting everybody in Omaha and sur
rounding territory to suggest what
types of factories will most readily
succeed in Omaha and why they will
be successful.
There is a first prize of $50 in gold.
There is an Omaha Bee prize of SIS,
an Omaha World Herald prize of SIS
and an Omaha News prize of SIS.
There are ten third prizes of $3.50
each.
Answers need not be long-less
than 800 words is preferable. The
suggestion need not necessarily refer
to type of industry that is totally
lacking in Omaha. Contestants may,
if they choose, explain why another
industry of kind already represented
here is apt to meet with conspicuous
success. Others may argue in favor
of some kind Of plant that would be
the first of its kind to locate here.
The officials in charge of the work
know Of scores of types of industry
that would succeed here. On the
other hand they know that from thou
sands of suggestions from Omaha
people they will get scores of new
ideas the survey has failed to develop.
Contestants are asked to send their
answers on one or more sheets OF
paper and to enclose a separate slip
bearing name and address. The con-
test begins at once. 1t will close Sep.

one night next to very well known

The protracted hot weather this

means of getting cool, pure milk for
them. But the contributors to The

these children are being brought

COURT RULING PREVENTS
FRAUDULENT MINERAL ENTRY

Reversing the decision of the su-
preme court of the District of Colum-
bia, the district court of appeals
holds that the department of the in
terror has jurisdiction to investigate
mining locations and TO determine
their validity prior to application for
patent.
In the case of Ralph II. Cameron
VS.. the government, the secretary of
the interior appealed from a previous
decree of the supreme court restrain
ing him from investigating the char
acter of land covered bV six unpat-.
ented mining c1auns in what is now
the Grand Canon National Monu-
ment, which claims it is alleged were
being held by Cameron and his as
sociates for the purpose of conduct
ing general tourist business and in
other respects contrary to the mining
laws.
The decision, 1t is said, not only
establishes the authority of the de-
partment of the interior to pass upon
the validity of claims in advance of
application fer patent, but makes the
secretary of the department of the
interior the sole judge of the classifi-
cation of the lands.

the upper workings a survey will be
made to assist In starting the drifting

The skip which was used TO un-

as the timbers in the shaft wouli not
