THE WORLD OF UNCERTAINITY. In It Live the Officers and Privates of the Rajlroads. A circular has reached Omaha announcing the appointment of Charles A. Parker as general freight agent of the Missouri Pacific with headquarters at St. Louis. The cireu- lar also announces that all assistant general freight and commercial agents will report direct to the general freight agent inswead of the freight traflle manager, as at present, The appointment of Mr. Parker was not altogother unexpected for the reason that he 18 a warm friend of both Mr, Clark and Mr. Teeds, the vice-president and trafiie manager respectively. The new appointee retires from the position of general freight agent of the :.\nbu ‘e and assumes his new position to- ay. 1t is currently reported that Traffic Manager Leeds has the reorganization of the trafic department of the system in view and that important changes will be made, J. O. Phillippi, assistant genoral freight and passenger agent at this point, left for Kansas City last night, and while he denies having any change in view, it is hought he will receive a promotion. He Gave Awav Socrets, *'No, John N. Abbott will not be reinstated a8 chairman of the Western States Passen- ger association. The facts are,” said a passenger agent this morning, “‘that Abvott is a good passenger man, but like many others, he has had an enlarge- ment of the head. His rulings have been, in certain instances, averse to the ronds mixed up in the controversy.when they should have been on the other side. Then, 100, when he w summoned 1 appear be- fore the inter-state comme comiuission he was transformed into a bulletin board, as it were. Instead of allowing the members of the commission to study out the intri problems, he freely told about all he knew.

The fight may lead to disso- lution, but this would be preferabte to Abbott to a majority of the lines,” Promote O1d Men, It reported yesterday morning that an eruption had occurred in the ranks of the yard switchmen of the Union Pacific at this place owing to employment having been given non- union men. Upon inquiry it was learned that the trouble among the switchmen was not s0 much over the employment of non-union men, as it was over the rights of the employes in the matter of promotion. While old men have been promoted, this policy has not bec v rigidly followa and the switchmen have concluded that they should, induty to themselves, insist on pref- erence being given the oldest employes, A conference was held Saturday, and the con- clusion reached was as above. ‘T'he laid their case before the officials and received assurances that when an old employe was capable of filling any vacancy that might arise he would be favored. The employment of non-union switchmen is a question as yet unsettled, but mo trouble 18 anticipated.” The non-union employes in the yard numbor but five. A special committee of the Switchmen's Aid association waited on Superintendent Resseguic this mormmg in view of briuging about a settlement of a case n whicii a member of their association asked slight damages for injuries received. The matter was taken under consideration, Another matter was laid before Superin- tendent Resseguie by the committee of switchmen. At present there arve several men employed in the yards as switchmen who at one time belonged to the Brother- nood of Railway Switchmen, but have been railroaded out of the order for the reason that they failed to pay their ducs. A special committeo waited on the superintendent yesterday and requested that the men in question be discharged. also charged that the men referred to were i intoxicants. The ofticials will look into the matter. The Alron's Threatened Cut. Will the Alton make the threatened redue- tion in live stock rates from Kansas City to Chicago! That is what has caused consider- able anxiety in the ranks of the local freight agents since the road announced that it would reduce the rate on live stock from 2 cents to 18 cents per hundred. This an- nouncement was made some time ago, but as yet the od rate is adhered to, and the ofii- cials here think the trouble may be averted. ‘They admit, however,that, sucha move might, bo made without any further warning, and for this reason o sharp lookout is being kept. *If the Alton remaius obstinate,”” said a local freight representative, ‘‘the lowa lines will have to make a corresponding reduction from Omaha to Chicago, as the competition is open and direct,” Green Succeeds Rapeljkoe. A cireular has reached Omaha from Salt Lake City, bearing date of September 12, announcing thoappoiutmentof W, I. Green to the position of suncrintendent of the Iduho division of the Union Pacific vico John Rapeljke resigned, taking effect at once. An accompauying circular_ also announces the appointment of L.
