A reporter for the BEE was yesterday permitted to in- gpect the plans of the new structure, as it will look when completed. As has al- ready been mentioned in the Beg, an- other story with a Mansard roof is to be added to the building, thus making it a five-story structure with a high basement. The specifications for the lust sto pearly compieted, and work will be com- menced at onc It is the will be completed inside of ninety daj The story will extend not only over the' old building, but g the which ] erected on the north, and will be finished in a most ornate manner. On this floo ac on the others, many of the brick pa titions will be torn down, o as to mi the rooms larger, more airy and mo comfortable. the north part of this floor (the fifth) will be the lunch rooms 40x80), and on the south side the rooms eight auditor and his assistants, ngementof the oilices in the re structure will then be as fol uldition eral manager and land jdepartment. Third—Auditor, local and car account Auditor, passenger depart ment, auditor agents’ accounts and chie engineer, Fifth—Freight auditor and lunch room. There will be an_clevator in the build- ing, the entrance to wihich will be in the north addition, while further south on the Ninth street side will be another trance. e entrance on the Fari street side will remain as oty There will be two stairway north and one in the south end of the building. Corridors will run the length of the different floors, connecting with the elevator shaft. Altogether the new structure will be a model of architectural beauty and convenience, and_will be probably the i ilding in Omaha. JATION, T “There is nothing parti ilarly new in ion of west-hound passenger rates,” said G T t Agent Steb- bins yesterday- Our rates, which were fixed some three weeks ago, have Dot been changed, but are adhered to by all the roads, including the Santa Fe.” *‘When the men meet and enter into a formal agr a8 to the rates to be maintuined v “That I can’t say; probably assoonas the Pacific Mail subsidy matter is ad- justed.

All the rate: pvised and “‘broug that is to su nt is neve: istant point, the sit the freight " have boen carefully into line; any on than to a as has been the case frequently under the old tariff. One important change which which has been made is that Council Blufts and Omaha R!Iirpel‘fl are placeod n Hmpetitive oints in Nebraska are concerned. For nstance, it has always cost more to ship oods from Council Blufls to Lincoln han from Omaha to the same point. Un- der the new tariff, the rates will be the same. ‘To points on the Union Pacific where there are no competing lines, the rates from Council Blufly will remain substantially as heretofore.
