lS NOT THE WIZARD'S WAY. Uzion Pacific Magoates in Boston on the Alleged Gould Interview. NEITHER RHYME NOR REASON IN 1T, A lis is How it Looks to Oliver Ames— sident Adams Thinks ven Gould Couldn't Control the Union Pacific Basily. The story, as printed in & New York news- paper, that Jay Gould had secured control of the Union Pacifie railrond, and would oust Charles Francis Adams from the presidency didnot seem to create the excitement that might have been expected in Boston, says the Globe of that city. What was the matter! The alleged interview with New York was circumstantial, to bear evidence of probability. the truth, it fell rather flat, The opinion of Oliver Ames is about as im- portant as anybody's in this matter, and he said: “My opinion of this matter issimply this “I don't believe that Mr. Gould ever said the words attributed to him. Tdon't think that's Mr. Gould's way of doing things, any- how. And then I don't belicve that the Northwestern combination will _ever be broket by the present management, for the management has confidence, 1 believe, in the officials that do the executive work of the roud. ‘As to the story the Union Pacific, but I don’ Mr. Gould in and seemed But, to tell that Mr. Gould controls I can’t say anything, of t know that he owns a in the rond, Mr. Gould is & powerful man and one that usually accomplishes about everything that he starts out to do, butl ean'v see any vhyme or reason in this story.” President Adams does not think that Mr. Gould is reported correctly, or, if reported corrcetly, 5 not himself correct. Mr, Adams is reported to have said: “his §s the revival of the old story that was put in circulation some five or six years ago. 41 don’t know anything about it. The directors may be able to tell you, but T do not believe that any request has been made by anybody for Mr. Gould and his friends to as- sume the management of the road, neither do T believe that Mr. Gould has said so. g get, control of the Union Pacific stock would be a task of enormous proportions even for G ld. About one-third of the entire £60,000,000 of stock is held in New England, one-third in New York and the remaining third abroad. “iMr. Gould until very recently has not held a share of the stock.” What he may have done of late [ donot kuow, of - course. The Union Pacifi> has had no negotiatic kind with the Missouri Pacific or any oth we are maintaining rates andare at peace with everybody. - The so-called boy cott against us, as ‘Thave aid before, no trouble and we are handling our business ina conservative manner. 1f Gould talked as he is reported to have done, itis with some special object in view, but | do not_believe he made the assertions ¢ redited to him.’ “Now, 1 want to say that, despite all this talk, there is a pretty well defined impression on the street that Gould controls the Union Pacific, and Gould has not yet said that he does not. or one man to say, however important a position that man may occupy with the road, that another man doesw't own _stock in the road is simply absurd. I might own a con- trolling interest in the Union Pacific or any otber corporation, and unless somenody els could produce personal stock to disprove my assertion, there could be uo conclusive denial of my sto “You must remember that tho stock books would not show it it Gould did own stock in the road. 1If Gould were buying stock in the Union Pacific he would placeit, of course, in the names of brokers, perhaps in New York or_in some other city. The fact that Jay Gould’s name does not appear in trans- actions involving the Union Pacific is, my boy, no evidence at ull that Mr. Gould’s money does not appear in such transac- tions. However, there were a good many big peo- ple in the business world of Boston” that, ex- pressed a very different opinion. They all scomed to think that Mr. hadn’t said what was reported. Levi C. Wade, for instance, premised whatever he had to say with the stutement that he wasn't in the Union Pucific, and that he didn’t know anything about the Union Pacific’s business” He didu't think there was any thing n the story, It was a little after 4 o'clock When Fred L. Ames, enveloped in a huge mackintosh and carrying an umbrella, turned the corner of Commonwealth avenue and walked up Dart- mouth street tohis house at 306, The Globe reporter who accosted the many-times mill- fonaire received a pleasant salutation, Mrs, Ames wasn't loath to express his opin- fon of the story about Jay Gould and the Union Pacific. “The fact is,” he said, thing about the matteruntil I read the account in the afternoon Globe.” “And then what did you think abont it?” “Ob,” he veplied, laughingly, I didn't think much about it.” *“Then it isn’t true that you ever had any conversation with Mr. Gould about any con- templated changes in the control of the road " ““Why, no; of course not. I never spoke with MF. Gonld concerning such a thing. As a matter of factI haven't seen Mr. Gould to hold any conversation with him for-let me see—well, six months at least.” “Do you think that Mr.Gould was correctly quoted, or that he ever made the statements etributed to him ¢ *No, I do not," SAUL why 2 *“Well, Mr. Gonld fsn’t the kind of a man o make any brash or rash statements of any }mvl'u, That isn't his disposition, as I kuow t. ‘““l?ocs Mr. Gould own stock in the road av I “Not to my inowledge." ““Would it appear on the books if Mr. Gould had any shares in the road f “Not necessarily, by any means.” “Then it would be quite possivle for Mr. Gould to own stock i the Union Pacific, and you and the rest of the world know nothing at all about it " ‘ertainly. It would be possible, even probable, quiteso. The mauner in'which stocks are purchased and controfled in these days would make it very easy indeed for Mr. Gould or anybody else fo own shares in the Union Pacific without the knowledge of my- self or any other director. The purchase of such things could all be done in New York and with absolute secrec ““And you wouldn't be' likely to know any- thing about it if Mr. Gould owned lots of stock in the Union Pacifier Mr, Ames smiled very broadly, “No, I don'tthink I would: "Mr. Gould, my der by, doesn’t always let his right hand laiow what his left hand does.” S1And about the story that thore is dissatis- faction among the stockholders of the road, and that you yourself don't feel altogether satisfied with the management " **Nothing about it so far as I um concerned, 1 certainly have mever expressed, for I cor- tainly have never felt any dissatis faction “Finally, I don’t believe that Mr. Gould ever spoke as he is reported to have spoken in that New York iuterview. He is too care- ful a man for that. And the trouble is, too, that everything is ascribed to Gould. 1f any rumor is afloat, why it is Jay Gould this and Jay Gould that, while perhaps that gentle- man hasn't even heard the rumor. “If this talk that Is going around has any effect, 1 suppose it will stiffen the stock. don't'suppose it will act any other way, It will be & good thing for the bulls,” Director . F. Atkins of the Union Pacific didul think the interview with Gould was i fide, and he did think that Charles o Alams is all right, and so expressed himself. uld “I didnot know any- T Accldent to Prince Frederick Leopold By, Noy Special Cablogram to Tne Ber|—Prince Frederick Leopold of Prussia was thrown from his carriage while driving from Gliencke castle to Pottsdam today.

The Organization Starts Out New Plan—Some Big Realty Deals That Have Been Consummated, on a Even the real estate men, and they are al- ways sanguine, havo been surprised at the remarkable activity that has marked the con- dition of the realty market during the past week, Inquiries for property of all kinds have been pouring inand the brokers have been kept on the push in an affort to provide a list of bargains to suit all comers. Prop- erty that was begging for purchasers during the anti-clection months has suddenly be- come very desivable and holders are not ¢ 80 anxious to sell as they were. A large number of deals that were in pros- pect before the election are being closed up and business in overy lino of the trade has been very brisk and promises to attain a still greater activity. ““We have sold more property in the past week than we did in six months before elec- tion,” said Mr. G. W. Ames yesterday, and nearly every dealer in the city has the same report to make, If ho has not made the sales he is getting ready to make them and his prospects are brighter than they have been at any other time forthe past two years.

The Reor ized Exchange. A radical change was madein the plan of work of the real estate exchange at a busi- ness meeting held Thursday aftevnoon, and the pros| are now that tho organization will make its irfluence felt in the general up- building of the city in the season of commer- cial and industrial prosperity that is confi- dently believed to be at hand, The exchange worked one year at a marked disadvantage. The members were for the most part enthusiastic, but it was found that enthusiasm was not suflicient to carry out tho valuable projects planned by the exchange. Money was needed first, and a greater need was found of the co-operation and encourage- ment of the business men of the city in the plans of the ex ange, At the meeting on Thursday arrangements were made to provide for both of these wants of the exchange, The annual dues were fixed at £0, which will give the exchange a fund of £,000 from this source alone. It was further decided to enlarge the field of mem- bership to include business men of the city and thus increase the interest in the institu- tion, A plan for this _eatension of the or- ganization's field of operations is under con- deration by the executive committee and will be reported at an early meeting. The evchange also decided to employ a secretary whose entire time shall be devoted to the work of the exchange. It is proposed to pay him a liberal satary and to require him to devote his entire energies to the further- ance of the interests of the exchange and of the city generally. It isalso proposed, and the matter is in great favor with the mem- bers of the exchange to secure permanent rooms where exhibits from the various manu- factories and jobbing houses of the city could be placed, thercby showing something of the daily busy life of Omaha. The exchange alsodecided to hold but three meotings each week, and Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday were selected as’ the session days. Armour & Cudahy Dissolve. The dissolution of the partnership existing between Phil D, Armour and Michael Cud- aby 1 the great packing firm of Armour & Co,, Chicago, and the Armour-Cudahy Pack- ing Co. of Omaha, was the big event of the past week, aneveut in which Omaha is deeply interested. The agreement makes over all Artmour’s interests in Omaha to Mr. Cudahy, and while it also victually absolutely severs all Cudahy’s counection with the Chicago firm ot Armour & Co., he will nevertheless remain in Chicago for some time to come and continue to look after Mr. Armour's business in the stock yards, The exchange means more than the mere burtering of millions of dollars’ worth of Chicago business property for equivalent millions in Omaha, "1t may be said to remove entively from Chicago and transfer to Omaha the vast commerciol influence that a man in Michael Cudahy’s position naturally holds. The separation was indirectly the” outcome of Michael Cudahy's determination to retire from the more active outside work of th firm, which he has been engaged at for the last quarter of a century, Cudahy, as every- body knows, was the practical packer of the firm, When Phil D. Armour first picked him up in Milwaukee, some twenty-five years ago, Michael Cudally was a practical packer and butcher, He knew the points of a steer, he knew how to kill, dress, cure and pack profitably. He also knew where and how to buy; in fine he was an expert i his busine: Armour put up the money and with it his in- nate accumen as a shrewd business man, He took up the commercial end of the work, Cud- ahy went down into the stock yards, hustled among butchers, stockmen and packers, han- dled the actual mechanism of the busines with the apt dexterity of @ man who kne every iota” of the trade; and thus the pair working in unison—each in the place best fitted to himself —built up the biggest pack- ing house in the world, The Omaha house has grown marvelously, and is still growing in amanner that demands a big increase in the facilities for handling business offered. The improvements will be made aa soon us possibl The local house will continue under its present managers, Tmprovement Notes, One of the biggest improvements in the bnilding line announced as one of the results of the defeat of prohibition is due the enter- prise of My.

All the connections except the Burlington today gave notice that they would acgept the advauced proportions de- mandea by the Union Pacific. These notices were based on a decision of Acting Chairman Osgood of the Western Freight association that competitors of the Northwestern could, to protect their own interests, make the same terms as the Northwestern has. Acting Chairman Osgood held that, until the associa- tion should declare its juterpretation of that provision of the agreement which ompowers the chairman to sanction for the use of one Jino rates that have been established by an- other line without authority from the associa- tion, each case arisiug thercunder must be de- cided on its merits without prejudice to ac- tion in_other cases, Consequently the un- authorized divisions which had becn accepted by one line having in- this case been specific- ally named, he felt it competent for him, uniler the circumstances, to hold that the pro- vision of the agreement, on which his action with respect to rates was based by implica- tion, enabled him to sanction the same basis of dlvisions that had been accepted by the Northwestern, but that the sanction 80 ex tended did not'serve to authorize the divisions in the sense that they thercby received the approval of tho ussociation, tlement of divisions was strictly an ter, Zastbound Traffic.

George Stryker, Gus Hame, Dan O'Keefe and M. H, Redficld have been mentioned for the place, O'Keefe and Stryker have veen figuring on the job for some time. Hamel was a promising candidate until he collided ~with a motor car a fow weeks ago and received se- vere injuries that kept him frora look- ing after his fences, Redfield is the latest aspirant in the field and has taken a favor. ite's place in the race, I. S, Hascall has lately moved to the Second ward and wants to get back into the council. If hegets shelved in the republican caucus he will try arace on theindependent ticket. The S ond ward democrats have about decided to pin their hopes to Peter Blsasser. at Ford's election to the legislature has given some of the Third wurd statemen the opportunity for which they have solong waited. The Third ward candidates lave not stood much of a chance at the election of councilmen at large and as Ford has had a monopoly on the position of ward council- man for years the other statesmen of the Third have had rather arocky time of it. Fheir oppc s arrived noiw, howeve and they will make the most of it. EQ Rothery and Dick Burdish will contest for the democratic nomination and both are sanguine, True to the traditions and customs of the Third ward democ s faction in the momination fight w iigiously knifed by the other faction on elec: tion day. The republicans of the Thivd will probably support Kid Briggs for Ford's shoes, Major Wheeler wants to succeed himself in the Fourth, a desire thata very lirge num- ber of good republicans will endeavor to see is not gratified. The major will have a con- teston his hands. The prominent aspirants for the republican nomination are D. J. O'Donatioe, Richard Smith and R D, Duneau. The democrats have about decided 1o unite on Thomas Tuttle, who is willing if not anxious to make the raceagainst Wheeler orany one whom the republicans may select. Ed O'Connor’s heart would be broken if he fuilml to get a chance torun again u thy Fifth ward. Ed is proud of his oficial posi- tion and wants in the worst way to retain it. Tim Counelly, who, like O'Connor, is also iu the saloon business, wants the democratic nomination and will work forit. Tom Dailey is also mentioned as a possible candidaté Charley Whitney, the coal man, could get the nomination if he wantedit, but ashe isunder some political obligation to 0'Connor he will not make @ fight against that gentlemau Still if there Is a prospeet, of O°Counor being beaten in the primaries Whitney way make the v Only two republicans are after the houors of representing the Fifth ward in the council, They are J. M. Counsman and R 0. Backus. The Wheeier forces of the coun- cil are grooning Backus for the fight. He has done faithful service in the ranks of the Twenty eight cluband a seat in the council is his promised reward W. G. Shriver is tived of his officfal job ond will not be in the fight. The big Sixth has a host of apolicants who want to succeed him. Dorsey, Houck, W. L. Irish, W. T P. Wood, John T, Dillon, are after’ the re- publican nomination and there is no advan- tage noticeable yetin favor of any onc of them. The democrats will probably unite upon Ed Paulsen, son of the late Senator Paulsen, although William Seevins’ name is also mentioned, Clarence L. Chaffee, president of the coun- cil, will nuve s merry fight on his hauds in his efforts to secure @ renomination in the Seventh, His man Inshep, the sergeant-at- arms of the coun working day and night and Chaffee himself is making every effort to get his fences in repair. M. L. Roeder will make a strong fignt against bim. The demo- erats are considering the names of E. E Howell and W. J. Kennedy? Albert Sander fovfeited his chances of further representing the Bighth ward in the council by moving into the Sixth, where he made his~ race for theoffice of county con- missioner. Aaron Hoel, Leavitt Burnham, J. L. Black and Simon Kuhn ave after the re- publican endorsement as Sander’s successor, A. H. Wolffe, the saloonkeeper is certain of thie democratic nomination. E. P. Davis is painfully anxious to be re turned from the Ninth ward. There isa strong opposition to lim among the anti- combine republicans, who will pit John L. Carr, the attorney, against him in the caucus contest, The democrats of the Ninth haven't found anyone yet who s desirous of malking alosing fight, and the republican nomince will probably have a walkaway. U Dillon Considers the Report Absurd, Newark, N. J, John Dillon, M. P., was asked tonight if he thought it true that Parnell had resigned the leadership of the Ivish party. He suid that as the author of the report was the Dublin Bxpress, the organ of the landlords and all the opponents of the Irish parlinmentary party, he con- sidered the report absurd.
