Manager Bubcock Talks About the Need of n Frelght Burean, The recent uction of the Omaha Board of Trade in refusing to lend assistance in estab- lishing and maintaining the Omaha Freight bureau was a disappointment to those inter- ested in the plan in South Omaha, and the general opinion prevails thatthe largo indus- tries in the Magic City have been very shab- bily treated. A freight bureau 18 8 necessary adjunct to the suc- cessful building up of industries and enterprises, which must be fairly treated by the railways and against which there must be no discrimination 1u favor of other loculi- ties, Kansas City bas a freight bureau, a strong and bealthy organization, that suc- cessfully combats all attempts to establish rates injurious to the success of any indust in that eity, and the suceess of the live stock cnterprise there is in a great measure duc to the aggressiveness of the freight bureau and the detertuined stand taken against any pro- posed establishment of rates the least dis- crimmative, (General Manager Babeock of the Union stock yards, in speaking of the proposad froight bureuu and 1ts benefits, sui The action of the Board of Trade in refusing to assist in the establishment of the bureau was a great disappolitment and not what I expected. Of courso it was not an expression of the business men who are members of tbe board, and had they been present the result would bave been entirely different, 1 am confident, however, that we will be able to ostablish a bureau within a short time without the assistance of the Board of Trade and will make a successful and strong organization. ‘“I'he welfare of Omaba and South Omaha dem| the organization of the commerciul iuterests, and that is the only cffeciive man- ner in which to secure protéction to our in- dustries and business enterprises.

At the present time we have a proposition for better rates before a railway company, and while they have wnot refused our request, they aro simply holding it in abeyance for a few days longer, and I am satisfied that the Kansas City fellows aro responsible forit. The po- sition we are in makes 1t imperative thut we have an organization to take up the fight for better freight rates and doaway with the discrimination against our stock industry. “I regret that there are some of the Omaha business men who do not seem to realizo the necessity of organization, and back up their refuenl to join with us by the statement that they are not dissatisfied with the tolls they pay the railways.

Tho events leading to 'he proclamation are described in the ofticial memorandum and are as follows: At an interview held at the Department of State Monday, August 1, the secretary of stute informed Mr. Herbort, iu charge of the British logation, that in view of the pessuge of the act of congress relating to tno Canadian canal tolls the president would regard it his duty to 1ssue, without delay, a proclamation based upon that act imposing toils upon products pass- ing through the Sauit Ste. Marie canal de- stined for Canadian ports unless an assur- ance could be received from the Canadian government within a few days that the dis- eriminations now enforced on the Canadian canals ageinst Ame n ports and hues of transportation would be prowmptly aiscon- tinued. Mr. Herbert snswered that a few day delay would be necessary in order to reas- semblo the Canadian cabiust, the majority of whom are now absent from the capital, and he nquired of the secretary what timeé would be considered reasonablé for this pur- ose. B ‘T'he secretary replied that he thought the cabinet might be conveniently called te: gother and taken action within u week or ten days and that nothing would be done in toe maiter by the president within that time, Mr. Herbert said he would communicate immediately with tho govornor generai by telegraph and urge prompt action. On the o of August Mr, Herbert telegraphed Mr, oster from Newport, R. L, that Lord Stau- ley had telegrapbed Lim that it would bo impossible to arrive at a decision until Mon- day at the earliest, owing 10 the absence of all the ministers from Ottawa. ‘'he next aay Mr. Herberttelegraphed Mr, Foster as foillows have received assur- ance of further cousiderations, May 1 con- sequently venture to hope that no steps may be taken in the meantime!" Seciretary Foster replied by telegraph the same time as follows: “Gratifiea at your telogram. You mav count upon reasonable time, such as indicuted 1 our interview.” It Was & One-Sided Arrang t (Clonsul General Day, at Ottaws, wrote to Assistant Secretary Wharton under date of August 15 as follows: *I bave the honor to contirm my lelegram of today as follows: Ministers determined to abolish rebate on canal tolls at the end of the season.

Havo telegrapted to inguire day 1 may ex- poct communication.” Ou the 10th inst. Secretary Foster sent the foliowing telegram to Mr. Herbert “Tue Uuited Staces consul geveral at Ottawa re- ports that the decision of the council was to abolish Lhe rebate st the end of this seasen. This is confirmed by Canadian press reports, 1f Cunadian discriminatious are to continue during this seuson, compliance with the re- cent uet of congress requires the president to establish tolls Lo run coucurrently, Discus- | sion as 10 future actions can then proceed under parity of conditions, 10 this telegragl Mr. Herbert at he could see Secro- the samoe time asked i tary Foster at the State department early the following morning, ind the seorotary telegraphea buck that He could meet him at any time botween 8 and 11 o'clock. In pur- suance of this arrangement, Mr. Heroert. charge of the British legation, called on the secretary of state this morning and informed him that he had not received the official no- tice of the action of the Canadian cabinet on the canal tolls, but he hoped to be avie to coramunicate it early fext week. Tho secretary of state said that the United States consul general at Ottawa bad reported that the decision of tho cabinet was to abo.ish tho rebate on toils at the end of the present season and that this had been con- firmed by the ministerial press of Canada, He then asked Mr. Herbert if this conformed to his information on tne subject. Mr. Herbert answered that he was not as vet authorized to make any official commwunica. tion of the subject, but that he had no doubt the cousul general’s report was correct. Tho secretary of state then said that such a conciusion of the question would not be regarded ns saisfactory and in answer to an inguiry he stated that the president con- sidered it his duty 10 1ssue the proclamation coutemplated by the act of congress, But he gave Mr. Herpertthe assurauce that stould the Canadian goverment give noti of its decision to abolish the discriminations now complained of, the proclamation would he suspendod concurrently with such uboli- tion, D a— WORKED BY THE SCALPERS. Present Demoralization Rates Due to Their Enterprise, Cunicaco, IlL, Aug. 20.—Snould the special ageuts of the interstate commerce commis- sion undertake to investigate the western passenger rato situation with a view to con- victing certain roads iu selling tickets at a lower rate to brokers they would have trouble in doing so. When excursion tickets ware seiling at §12 to Den- ver and return tho scalpers were not slow to see it was thewr oppor tunity, ‘Lhe return passage of these tickets was good until October 11, The brokers bought up whole blocks of these round-tr tickets, paying the full price of $12 each and sent them unused to their agents ut Deaver, The business of the Denver broker was to detach the return portious and to sell them to eastbound passengers at less than tho regular rate. The present one-way rate from Denver to Chicugo is about £25, so that the scalpers could well afford to pay the full price for tho round-trip ticket and sell the return portion at & reduction of the regalar eastbound rate. Iur- thermore, he could afford to lay in a pretty large stock without risk, since tne tickets are good for return passage until October 11, Oue road which was accused by competi- tors of dealing with brokers has just dis- covered that seventy-five of its Kuichts Templar tickets were purchased by one scalper in the manner referred to. Christian Eudeavor tickets were manipulated in the same way aud now the & round-trip ticke 1ssued on account of the Knignts of Pythias cncampment at Kansas City are being ex- tensivelv bought by brokers. All the lead- ing roads are victims of this sort of compoti- tion on the part of the scalpers, and it is probable that au investization will result in the discovery that not a single ralroad com- pany or any of its agents had been guilty of selling tickets to brokers at less than the authorized rates. A Slap at the Altoi General Passenger Agent Townsend of the Missouri P’azific has replied fully to tho charge made by the Chicago & Alton that his company was selling Kuights of Pvthius oxcursion tickets at £ for the rouud-trip be- tween St. Louis ana Kansas City. 1n a telo- gram to Chairman Caldwell of the Western association, Mr. Pownsend says: The action of the Chicago & Alton road in attempting to force a #4 round-trip rate from St. Louis to Kansas City and to place the responsibility on this line is now fully explained by tho fact of the Alton had contracted with ~ the German Vet- eran association of . St. Lous, for special trains leaving Saturday, August 20, at & per capita rate of, # for the round trip, in uddition to which they carry the band of twanty-eight pecple free, practically making a rouna-triprate of about§3. Asevi- dence of this statemént ve have in our pos- session Chicago & Alton’tickets dated Aug- ust 20, reading St. Louis to Kansas City and return and good untii September 15, for which we paid $4. Wo wiil meet the compe- tition offered by the private rate and also use this rate for basing purposes in the salc of round-trip tickets to points west of the Mis- sourl river good until Septemoer 15." Cuairman Caidwell has autborized all the interested roads to take similar action. Flour Rates Advanced. Notice was given today by the Chicago lake line agents, that taking effect Septem- ver 1, lake and rail rates to New York will bo advanced from 15 to 17'; conts per 100 pounds on tiour and grain products and other sixth class freight. This 13 the direct result of the combination between the Northern Steamship company and the Reading system which is 10 take piace September 1. ‘The Boston rate will be advanced to 18}y cents at the same time, A better maintenunce of rates and agree- ments is now predicted as a result of the combination uud considcrable satisfaction is expressed by those lines that had been forced to accept 15 cents on fiour to New York, TROUBLE OF - t DENVER FIRM, sational Attachment Issued Against Brokers Taylor & Ruthvon, Dexver, Colo, Aug. 20.—The Rocky Mountain News publishes ason$ational story I rogard to n 2,000 attachment and tho probable following of other suits against the Taylor & Rathvon investment company, which has dono @ great dealof business throughout the east. The story goes on to toll how Taylor & Rathvon soid u grdat deal of mining stock to people living in Maine, Rhode Island, Counecticut aud Canada, the money trausactions amounting to §350,000. ‘The Nows says that a short time after the sale of the stocks they began to show a weaknoss and wero not on & divi- dend-payiug basis as supposed. The Canaduian and easiern capitalists became apxious at the decline of their stocks and came to Denver to investigate matiers. A couference wus held at the Metropole, at which Mr. Taylor was present. The meeting 13 said to have been quite lively and the dis- cussion animated, It was discoyered tuat a large quantity of the stock had been byvothecated by the Taylor & Kathvon company sud the eastern men proceedad to treak the market.
