Tt soams altogether probabla that the mag nificent library and wonderful collection of 3 coins recently bequeathed to the city of Omaha by the late Byron Reed will within the next eighteen months be resting ina splendid, new library buildi on the grounds bequeathod by Mr. Reed at the cor ner of Harnoy and Nincteenth streets, in accordance with the provisions of the will of the generous donor, The lot bequeathed by the late Mr. Reed 8 881 x4 8-10 feet ana the provisions of the bequest state that within one year from the aate of tho instrument tho city shall have begun to erect & four-story, fireproof build- {ng to cover the ent tot. This buiding must be begun by June 1, 150 The Public Librar, some time ago that such a building as that L described in the will should have wore ground, and three of the gentlemen, Mr. A. J. Poppleton, Mr. Wiliiam Wallace and M. Lewis iteed, purchased for the city an addi- tional lot, fifty feet wide, making the grounds 93 8-10x):1814 feet and leaving room for an area about the building, ‘I'his additional lot was purchased for$15,000 and the threo gentle- men avove mentioned will carry it until such time as the city shall vote bonds to pay for it and to erect the library building. The Li brary association has requested tho city council to take prompt action with regard to this matter in the following ury tion: Tt Is believed by the hoard that $150,000 will aply and substantinlly comply with ms of the will, and ulso purchase said fitty foot lot, and the bourd unhesitatingly rocommend that at the next November clec- association declded tlon a proposition be submitted to the voters of th ity for the issue of #150..00 of bonds, the proceeds thercof Lo b devoted to the pu poso nentioned. [0t dovised Is of an estimated v \u.i of Lo The about $10,000, and tho collection bequeatl; 0 the city 18 valued by experts at £0,000. The board respectfully urge the necessiry mction on the part of the city council without delay. so that there may 1o 1o possible fuil- ure {n the submission at the next election of the propesition for the lssie bonds sufli- 5 olent to purchase tho additional ground and snsure the erection of the building in com- liance with the terms of the hequest. The board 18 advised that tho power to Issue bonds Is undoubted. and that as yet there is 1o limitation upon this power that witl inter- fere with the fssuc of the amount stated. With prompt and energetic action and a hoarty co-oporation in all the departments of the city government, your bourd believes that the bonds can be voted. Issued and sold, and the work of construction proceeded with so Tapidly that tho iibrary bulldfig can bo come vloted for occupancy before the close of 1892, In speaking of the matter vesterday Mr. Poppleron said he did not think there would be much opposition in .the council to the library bonds, but the full amount might not e secured. 1f the council would give the Library association $100,000, however, he thought the provisions of the will could be complied with and the valuabie gift accepted by the association. Mr. Popploton said: *“The people in gen- eral 4o not understand the great importance of a good public library. I consider our pub- Yo library one of the most important features of our educational system, one of the very best institutions that any city or peopie can encourage and sustain.’” Mr. Lewis S. Reed spoke in asimilar strain, althouwh he thought the city council should not hesitate to provide for the $150,000, for a rerompt and cheerful compliance with the rms of this generous bequest would encour- Bge other wealthy men to remember the city In the distribution of their wealth. —-——— WOES OF A CONDUCTOR.

LAKE ~ BUSINESS FIGURED LARGELY. ther Dissatisfaction with Chaire hroats of man Finle: to Rulings and Ignore the Authority the Association. Ciiteaco, Aug. 10.—Tho east bound ship- ment of freight by rail last week, including everything except live stock, ag ted 47,075 tons, an increase of 3,061 tons as com- pared with the week previous and a decrease of 10,770 tons as compared with the samo period last year. Theso figures do not reflect the actual zain in the enstbound tonnage as a_ wholo, for the freight sent forward by the take during the weck was 108,310 tous. This gain is largoly due to the order sent out by the Trunk lino's executive committee that all eastbound rates must be restored not later than August 17 to tho basis agreed upon atthe beginning of the ye r. o be sure, the order was not promul- ated until last Saturday, but it has been nown for a week that it was com- wg, and shippers are doing as much shipping as possible. It the order is obeyed by the lake and rail lines the ronds east of Chicago will stand a chance of gotting their share of the traftic after August 17, and they are looking forward to that date as'tho turning point in what has thus far been a very full year for them, Tho shipments of flour, grain and pro- visions from Chicago to the scaboard by the roads in the Central T\ ation last week aggregated tons against for the _ preceding week, an o of 1,170 tons and awnitst or the corresponding week Iast year, o docrease of 6,055 tons. The Vanderbiit lines carriod 45 per cent of the traftic, Pennsyl- vania lines 22 per cent, Grand Trunk 19 per cent, and the Baitimore & Ohio 9 por cent. ROCK ISLAND OMJECTS, One of the subjeets to bo considored by the mmissioners of the Western T'raflic asso- ciation attheir meeting this week _involves the question of appeals to bo taken from tho Western Passenger association. Chairinan Piulay ruled that there could be no appeal from the Western Passenger asso- clation to the Western Traflic association in a cuso of notice to meet rates of outside lines, tho roason being that one of the members of the formor was not a member of the latter and that ho would be placed at a croat disad- vantago if they were allowed to appeal. “Thie matter will be argued betore the com- missioners of the Western Passenger asso- ciation and therefore is subjoct to its rules, ‘'hero 13 some speculation as to whether tho dispute will drive the Chicago, St. Paul & KKnnsas City road out of the Western Passen- sociation or force it to join the Western aftic association. HOW THE POOT, WORKS. 1i there is one road that feels it has more reason than another to be dissatisfied with the operatior of the southwostern blind pool it is the Burlington. Ever since the pool was organized that road has been doinga comparatively Lzht business atsouth- western Missouri river points, and yot it has been repeatedly ordered to divert trafic to competing lines, particularly to the Kok Island and to the Wabash, The order came from the advisory board which in accordance with the agreement is ompowered to fix the percentage of traftic of the roads involved, The Burlington, which has been directed to turn over 250 cars of [reight to the Rock Island claims w0 have diverted about one thousand cars to other roads since the agreo- ment went into effect without receiving ono from any of its neizhbors. It complains that the advisory board has either fixed its percentage too low or placed those of some of the other lines too high. FOLLOWING THE ALTON. Since the Atchison has decided to meet the Alton’s rates and arrangements for harvest excursions, the lines via Omaha have covcluded to run an addi- tional excursion, September 15, to all poiuts rouched via Kansas City. This, of course, includes points in Colorado, Utah and Montava. The St. Paul has given notice that 1t will also sell harvest excursion ticke! P tember to Montana points. The Rock Island people, however, are disgusted with the whole business and will invoke tho inter- ference of the Western Trafic assoclation to compol the Atchison, if possible, w0 refrain from putting into effect the one-fare rates to Colorado points.
