BUCHANAN'S OPINION OF THE FINDING ©an't Get Men Enough to Push the Work on the New Hridge—Plans of the Wells-targo People—Notes and Personuls, The caso of the Burlington against tho Elkborn, which has occupiod attentiion since October 15, was decided at the monthly meeting of the Transmissouri P’assenger association, Secretary Mcladden readiug the opinion w! h finds against the lilkhorn on every count | The Elkhorn secured the transportation of troons from Fort Robiuson to the dedicatory service of tho Columbian exposition at a rate Of §21.4 per passenger. Tais rato tho Bur lington, which was 1ot a competitor, claimed was & cut, and 1n auo time Mr. John Fraucis, genoral pissenger and ticket acent of tne Burlingion, filed specific charge st Mr. Buchanan’s roud, alleging that the rato was in 1ly made and that 1t was against the agreement of the Transmissouri association. Mr. Buchanan replied to the charges of the Burlington, joining 1ssue with the some- IOR A8t st hreE el Endbbiae oo We have theretore decided to sell all our goods hereafter the evidence at the Millard hotel on Novem ber 0, and took the matier under adviscment Yesterdny Sccrotars MeFadden handed down the decision which sustaiued tho Bur- lington's position on every poit.. Mr. McFadoen states’ that tho rato of one fare from Crawlord to the river was never agreed upon formally, and that the discussion of making the rate At tho meeting of the Western Passen- ger association accomplished nothing as b final action wes taken, It was upon the idea that n rate of one fare for the troops to the river should be mado that induc d Mr, Bucbanan 1o fizure the rate, Upon the question of the subsidized Si City & Pacitio and tho shrinka of $1.27 in that case Mr. McFadden heid was iliegal and should mot provail, He conteuded that rates must be figured upon @ cash basis, not upon a chin ieal land grant, which was simply a figment of the tinagiaation. And tho waiver of damages on the Bur- lng on's part aione saved tho Eikborn from being mulcted 1 damage to the tune of some §3,000, Mr. Buchauan, when asked as to what courso o would take now that tho decision was against ‘ The enormous quantity of goods sold by us during the past two months, has convinced us of the *“*wonderful power of price.” at one half our former marg expecting the increase in sales will more than offset the decre se in profits, We are daily receiving a complete new stock and all new goods placed on our floors will be marked at the lowest possible percentage of prolits, This policy of seling everything at a small profit with price as the leading feature, and —— maintaining a good quality of goods, will make our store more than ever before the most pro- fitable place to buy furniture.
