8 THE OMANMA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1895 BROKERS DOING FINE WORK Practicing a Trick on the Coast that May Lead to 8erions Trouble, REAP A H\RVEST BY SCALPING TICKETS Unless Chalrman Caldwell Throws Himself Into the Wreach and Calls a Halt, Railrond Men Predict a War on Passenger Rates, Press telegrams have indicated that the Santa Fe cut the rate from Los Angeles to eastern points on account of the manipu lation of tickets by scalpers, but nothing has been eaid of the same trouble which exists In San Francisco, and which fs liable to Involve the whole western rallroad world in an internecine war, unless Chairman Cald- well comes to the relief of lines sceking pro- tection. It now appears that brokers in the Pacific coast metropolis ars selling tickets to Chi- cago and cutting Chicago rates by ma- nipulating tickets via Kansas City to Omaha and Sioux City, and this is done in a very shrewd manner. The passenger, on arrival at Kansas City, sells the unused portion of his ticket, and presents an order on a broker for a ticket to Chicago, the unused coupon from Kansas City to Omaha, or Sioux City, being as good as old wheat to the broker By this very clever sleight-of-hand perform- anco the passenger saves $5. But the hocus pocus does not end with Chicago, for the tickets affect points cast as well. Theso tickets are openly on sale in San Francisco by the Southern Pacific, notwith- standing the protestations of lines vitally in- terested in California busin And by thel reading the passenger going to Chicago buys to the Missouri river, with the hope of se- curing a cheap ticket to his destination, or if golng to New York, buys to Chicago, the scalp enabling him to get east cheaper than the regular tarift rates call for. The trouble seems to be in kecping on sale tickets of this kind via the long routes, and some of the lines bave asked Chairman Caldwell to rulo that these tickets should be taken off sale because of their demoralizing Influence. Otherwise the direct lines will have to protect themselves by paying a com- mission of $6 to Chicago and points east to even up. A representative of the Burlington stated that his company was ready to BO out of this business Just as soon as the Unlon Pacific showed a disposition to play fair. He understood that the Missourl Pacific was somewhat differ- ently situated because of having a Pucblo con nection, and might route bus a Kan- sas City and Sioux City consistently. On the other hand, Union Pacific officials afirm that they will only be too glad to have this matter settled, for instead of serving revenue it means constant disturb- ance of existing rates, By reascn of the passenger Is this manipulation enabled to get to Chicago for $5, whereas the local rate Is $12.50, and leaving California by reason of _tho circuitous route, has the benefit of nearly $9 to reach his destination. Chunce for a Row. Unless material changes occur in the situ- ation the meeting of the Western Trunk Line committee, called for today in Chicago, prom- fses to be a monkey and parrot time. Chairman Caldwell's barrel of oil has not been persuasive enough to bring the Missourl, Kansas & Texas into line, and the Missouri ‘Pacific is on the fence as to joining the -agreement. With this condition obtaining and the disposition to fight on the part of ‘the Rio Grande Western and Santa Fe, the outlook is decidedly squally, and unless the chairman supplies himself with another bar- rel of the liguid which he is said to carry . @bout with him, it will not be surprising to see the Western Trunk Line committee knocked Into a cocked hat. Hullway, J. 8. Bartle, assistant general freight agent’ ~wwof the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy lines in Missouri, is in town. On_March- 1 the Chicago city passenger and ticket office of the Chicago, Milwaukee. & St. Paul railway will be removed to the .new Marquette building, 95 Adams street. = Icicles. .

IN THE DISTRICT COURT. Another Packing House Strike Assanlt Case Trinl-Other Matters, The jury in the case of Charles Neff, who is charged with assault with intent to kill John Peterson, empaneled yesterday in Judge Scott's eourt, Peterson was an employe of Swift's pack- house dur the coopers’ gtrike last faill On September he was at the Seventeenth street station, awaiting the departure of the Unjon Pacific workingmen's train, when Neft and_several others, who claimed to be strikers, beat him, according to his state- ment, with pleces of gas pipe. His skull was trectured and tor a long time all hope of his recovery given up. Charles Neft was arrested as the leader of the gang and charged with assault with intent to kill. The defense will rely entirely upon prov ing an alibi. They will npt to prove T, who lives with his family at South was at breakfast twenty minutes bes ussault on Peterson took place, and that it would have been impossible for him to be in Omaha at that time, Peterscn was called to the stand shortly be- foro noon and gave his version of the as- sault, which is substantially as heretofore published in The Be was 1t Did Not Con The jury in the of John Morrisy against Mrs. M. J. Mann brought in a verdict for the plaintiff for $132.25 and costs in Judge Keysor's court yesterday. The case was an appeal from the justice's court. John Morrisy d'd plombing - work at the instance of the defendant m_the old Blkhorn Vailey hcuse amounting to $206.74, of which Birdle” could cnly be Induced to pay $50 and was sued for the balance. In her answer the defendant plea that she was, at the time this work was done, a weman of the town, and that Morrisy knew it. Therefore, when he did the work he was aiding and abetting crima n the city of Omaha and was not entitled to any payment whatever. Judge Keysor would not permit this defense to go before the jury, for if the work was done properly Mcrrisy had honestly earned his money and he could see no reason why a person of bad character should not pay his debts as well as good citizens, case set up the Result of the Gead The city of Omaha, defendant in a suit commenced by George W. Smith and others, has filed a demurrer. The suit grows out of ordinance No. 136, passed in 1800, to change the grade of Douglas, between Sixteenth and Twentieth streets. The damages which would result to the property fronting on the part of the street to be graded were estimated, and a special tax was levied on all property which would be benefited by the change of grade, The complaining property owners refused to pay the special tax and petitioned for an order restraining the city from selling the property for the purpose of collecting it. The demurrer filed states that the com- plaint involves questions which are not com- mon to all of the defendants, and that con- trary questions are involved His Own Faalt, The Burlington railroad has filed an answer in a $5,000 damage suit Instituted by Michael Dempsey. In November, 1893, Dempssy worked for the railroad company as a stone mason and while working on’a riprap wall, constructed for the support of a bridgs near Fontanville, Ta., a mass of stone end earth caved In on him, Injuring h's leg near the knee joint. The railroad in answer claims that the accldent was owing entirely to Dempsey's own_negligence and that he was mot perma- nently disabled by it. Wants the Insurance. Bliza A.

The Board of Fire and Police Commis- sioners has decided to put the colored fire company into service at once, and it will be assigned for duty by Chief Redell to- day. The members will go on duty the next day, o that the terms of service may date from March 1. Until the chief issues his crders it is not known where the new com- pany will be lccated, but it is said that it will be placed at one of the down town engine houses. It is well known that the policy of the chief is to put the best captains at the outside houses, and as the new company will be compos:d of amateurs, it is naturally ex- pected that it will be located where it will have a chance to learn its business. Chief Redell argues-that when there is a firs in the down town district, the chiefs are on hand 2e soon as the rest of the de- partment, and the fighting is done under their immediate supervision. There are, how- ever, a great many fine residences, manu- facturing plants, ete., on the outskirts which the chiefs cannot reach until the fire is well under way. In these cases the captains have to handle the fire at the start, and as the first ten minutes are always the most Impor- tant period, it is essential that the captains at these pointe should have sufficient abjlity and experience to work to advantage until their superlor officer arrives. e Captain Sweeney, U..8. ‘A, San Diego, Cal., says: “Shiloh's Catarrh.

Ever since the trains on the electric lines on Dodge, Farnam and Harney streets have run along Tenth street to the Union depot, people have had difficulty in distinguishing them, especially at night.
