The Omaha & Council Bluffs railway and bridge company passes,about which there has been so much talk, are very handsome bits of pastebonrd. They were engraved by Chase & Bddy of Omaha, the designers of the annual pass of the Union Pacific, said to be the most striking over issued by any rail- way company. The latter pass is steel plate, the words **Union Pacific Sys- tem” running across the top, beneath which appears in raised red latters the name of the division over which the pass is issued. In the corner is embossed in blue, red and gold the “trade mark” of the great road, the American shield. The bridge motor passes ave also stoel plate, printed in green, with a vignette. *'1800,” em- bossed in vermiilion at the side. The same house Yurnishes the annual pa: for a number of other corporations, in- cluding the Omaha Street railway com- pany, the St. Joseph & Graud Island railroad and the Pacific Hotel company.

Fifty-seven Hundred New Ojl Wells Sunk Liast Year. While there was little speculation in crude oil last year all other branches had a veritable hoom, says tho New York Herald, In western Pennsylvania, western Virginia and eastern Ohio the search for new terr tory and vhe sinking of new test wells progressed vigorously, and of theso tests, or ‘‘wildeat,” welis and other wells there were drilled 5,700, resulting in an increase of 16,000 to 17,000 bar- rels in production. As against 1888 the total number of wells completed siows un increase of 4,000, but the re- sults in the way of discovering new pro- lific territory were surprising small, so that it 1s doubtful if, after all the work done in thé fields, there is any more paying territory in sight now than at this date last year,und if the produc- tion is to be materially increased the producers must redouble their efforts. So plain is this, that even the Stand- ard company has gone into the field as an active buyer of territory and oil production in the states above named. The competition has been so keen chat oil lands have advanced 25 per cent in the Pennsylvania districts. Last year the total output of wells in eastern Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsyl- venia and western New York was 22,059,000, which was a considerabie in- crease over the previous year. The daily average for January, 1889, was about 51,000, and for December 65,500, The shipments trom the oil regions were 20,835,000 barrels. 5 These figures are the largest in the history of the trade. The refiners were fully employed during most of tne year, and the’experts of refined illuminating oil, lubricating, and crude oil, ete., reached the enormous total of 671,236, 000 gallons, an increase over 1888 of 101,549,000 gallons. In crude equiva- lent the increase was 38 ,000 barrels, In Europe, to which the great bulk of the export was made, there was no in- crease of stock of consequence, but in eastern Asiatic ports there was undoubt- edly a considerable increase in the vis- ible supply, as the exports thence were very heavy. BrokerGeorge H. Lincoln, who does the greater part of the busi- ness in case oil, says that no exact fig- ures of the increase in the stocks in the far east are obtainable, but it has been large. Some of the exportersin the e trade estimated the increase at all the way from 850,000 to 750,000, Producers and refiners are feeling jubilant over the immensel increase in consumption, 1t 1886 the total nomo and foreign consumption of the product of Pennsylvania and nearby portions of qther states was 73,800 barrels daily% in 1887, 77,700 barrels; in 1888, 75,000} but in 1889 it bounded up to 84,000 to 85,000 barrels daily, In order to supply. the demand it was necessary to draw on the stock of erude to the extent of 7,750,000 barrels, leaving on hand Jannary 1, 1850, but 9,800,000 barrels, or sbout g month’s supply, The inferior oil of Western Ohio and Northern Indiana has n%v. yet found its way into consumption largely, but it has nevertheless been exteusively of- fered to cousumers and has made some inroads on the market for Pennsylvania oil in the home trade, Opn the other hand Russian competition in Western Europe seems to be dying out, whether from the inability of the Russians tu furnish a good article or on account of an agreement with refiners here it is difficult to say as yet, but it is believed that such an agreement has been made, During the four months ending October 81 last there were exported to Western Luropean ports but 880,00 barrels of Russian oil, In the same months there were exported from Batcum 1,209,000 cases Lo ports in Lastern Aslae Letting down ‘the prices on flour, butter, lard, sugar, buckwheat flour, starch, crackers, hams, jelly, none such mince meat, Soda erackers o, pearl oyster crac Aunt Jemima's pancake flour pint bottle mixedmickles 10c. pint bot- tle chow chow 40, enions, pint bottle, very good prunes Californin . eured prunes 10, Sult_ Lake hes 100, raisin cured apr . 17ie. blackberries 7dc, raspbers zood flour 98¢ per sack.

AN ACCOMPLISHED GOAT. He Can Never Get Iinough Tobacco or Beer., *Yes, sir, he is uncommoniy fond of the weed is Billy,” said a brawny blacksmith yesterday, standing in front of the anvil whereon lay a glow- ing horseshoe ready for the hammer, says the New York Times. The “Billy” |~«:}crrcfl to was u middle-aged goat of rather disreputable appearunce, who stood by looking wistfully at any by- stander who happened to be indulging in the luxury of chewing tobacco. Billy’s habitation is Pearl street, be- tween Whitehall and State streets, and very few people in the neighborhood would dream that such an interesting and accomplished individual could exist in 5o thickly settled a place. But any body who stops in frontof the little blacksmith’s shop is pretty sure to see Billy sooner or later. Billy has several peculiaries, in which he goes far ahead of others in his species. In the first place, his appear- ance is decidedly striking. He 1s very large, with immense curling horns. His beard is yellowish an scraggly, and there is about him a general air of blase indifference—n dissipated look that possibly comes from the highly- artificial 1ife he leadsand the stimulants to which he is addicted. The latter characteristic—that of imitating his human associatesiin the use of tobacco and beer—is a particularly interesting part of Billy’s make-up. lnstead of de- voting his time to the plebian but use- ful tomato can or: rich and unwhole- some theater billg, Billy consumes large quantities of tobaeco—plug, fine-cut, or granulated. It is the custom for patrons of 1illy’s master ito present the goat with a handful of chewing tobacco whenever they call, and he has got so now that he acts wery much like an un- tipped waiter if anybody neglects him. His manner of ehiewing the tobacco is very peculiar, Heswallows it eagerly, 1iké so much grass, and really does not seem to get much of the good of it. A favorite way for him to indulge this nicgtine habit is by *‘hitting the pipe,” 80 fi: speak. <The older and richer the pipe the better Billy likes it. Te gets somebody to hold the pive for him and then greedily runs his long tongue down into the bowl and scoops up all the nicotine he can find. His passion for the stuff is so intense that he will poke his nose intoany one’s pocketafter the pipe has been put away. Billy also drinks beer with great usto and has never been kuown to have enough, His phisique does not seem, however, to have been injured by his excesses, He is, on the contrary, probably the healthiest and biggest goat south of the Harlem river and, moreover, hus an extrordinarily peace- able and ineffensive disposition, HAYDEN BROS, Special Lowering of Prices Goods, 50 pieces fancy mixed suiting worth 20c; sale price, 15c.

Kimball Seems to Think But Little About it. After a hasty perusal of Attorney General Leese's complaint filed in Washington aganst the Union Pacific and protesting against its obtaining further government aid. Thomas L. Kimball of that road expressed himself regarding the matter, as follows: “It is not diMicult,” observed Mr. Kimball, “to distinguish Mr, Leese’s ear marks in the construction and complexion of the -docu- ment. Being a rehash of the old story, I can’t see wheremn his effort is going to have much weight or cut any figure, “One of his charges accuses us of building the Orewon railway and navigation line and securing by purchase the Oregon Short Line, in order to divert trafiic away from the Union Pacific main linee Any person acquainted with the facts must smile at the absurdity, as well as utter falsity of such a statement. The great bulk of our traffic last year came from those roads. They are the most valuable feeders the main line of the Union Pacific has. Furthermore, the peopie of the west encourage us in the build- ing of branches, appreciate the fact that we have been abie to thus occupy territory naturally tributary to the Union Pacific and build up its business. ““Ihat policy is certainly a great benefit to Omaha and Nebraska. We ought to do more building in Nebraska, but the great tendency to legislate railroad extension out of the state has had the effect of preventing castern capitalists from comiug here to invest their money."” “Of course, the company will make reply to Mr. Leese's complaints{” Y 40, T presume 80, bnt that rests entirely with Mr. Adams. It is not for me to say what course will be persued,” General Attorney Thurston has gone to Boston, prosumably for the purpose of con- sulting'somebody on the question. AMUSEMENTS.
