LIKE THE OLD PATHFINDERS President Burt and Other Officials to Take Leng Wagen Trip, INSPECTING ROUTE FOR A NEW LINE cific Authorities Admit that of the Old-Fashioned Kind is Under Cone templation, A trip by wagon over the route of the new line from Salt sake City to Los Angeles is suid to be under contemplation by Presi- dent Horace G. Burt and Chiet Englneer I Berry of the Unlon Pacific and Vice President Bageroft and Resident Engineer Ashton of the Oregon Short Line of Salt Lake City. The line s belng built by the Harriman syndicate, which now dominates the Union Pacific and the Oregon Short Line, and these men are supposed to be the managers of the affairs of the syndicate in the weet 1t was admitted by Union Pacific officials yosterday that the trip has been under cousideration, but it was denied that it had been definitely decided upon. Accord- ing to the information at hand, the party is Jeave Salt Lako City Wednesday or Thursday of this week. It fs sald that orders were fssued in Salt Lake City Thurs- day for the outfit which is to carry the party over the right of way—two teams hitched to big wagons Vice President Bancroft has been quoted as sayipg that it is the intention of the Short Line to push through to the Pacific const, though there appears to be some doubt as whether San Diego or Los Angeles will be the termival. It is under- #100d here that the contemplated trip of President Burt is to determine the direc- tion the road shall take. The plan is that data shall be secured under the personal direction of the officials and the line pushed rapldly along in accord with their decision The track, leaving out the work of the last week, reaches Uvada, where the line crosses from Utah into Nevada. The grade, which is in dispute, is completed to Clover Valley Junction, 40.2 miles beyond Uvada. The grade remains to be thrown up from ‘lover Valley Junction to the crossing of the Southern Pacific tracks, between Beau- mont and Banning, a distance of 403.6 miles. o shed. work s already y calls for Henviest in ¥ viest part of the done.

It was the opinion of those who had any knowledge of the subject that the change cannot but help the eity. A8 it s now, the Hlinols Central does little for Omaba but run its trains in and unload them. The offices of the Omaha division bave been in Councl Bluffs in the new depot which was opened there last year. The round house and the yards are on the east side of the river. The pas- senger tralns cross on the Terminal bridge, unload at the union station and then back over to the Council Biuffs yards. An cut- KOIng passenger train is made up on the lowa side, backed over to the depot and then carries its load away. Consequently the men live in Towa. Under the change which goes Into effect today the Omaha division is to be length- ened #o that instead of extending from this city to Fort Dodge it will reach as far a3 Waterloo. Superintendent Clark will re- move his headquarters from Council Bluffs to Fort Dodge and it is said this will mean the removal of several clerks and at- taches of the chief dispatcher’s office from Council Blufts. Up to this time the traln crews have been compelled to care for the trains until they are in the yards. It is saild now that with the lengthening of the run, which for passenger conductors is to be from Water- 100 to Omaha, there is a prospect of the crews being religved of their tralns when they arrive at the Omaha depot. For a long time they have been asking thet hostlers be provided for this duty. 1f this proves true it is expected that the four passenger crews of three men each will find it more convenient to live in Oma a choice which most of the wmen have long expressed, As for the engine men and the frelght men little is known. One Illinols Central man talked with said that the orders had not been issued to them for any changes and that they were dependent largely on the press dispatches for information. SHIPPERS DISCUSS FREIGHTS, Conalder Western's Proposed Ch in ficat Shippers of Omaba will meet this after- noon fn the rooms of the Commercial club (o consider the proposed changes in classi- ficatfons of freight in the territory of the Western assoclation which are scheduled to be considered at the meeting of the bureau at Monterey, Cal. in May. These classification meetings are semi- ual, the freight agents of the roads Aling 1n the territory west of Chicago . Louis assembling to consider the questions submitted to them by shippers or conceived in their own mind. The chair- man of the commitiee prepares a docket of the changes, which is submitted to all o. the railroads and commercial bodies c:n- cerned for thelr consideration previous to the meeting, and they are permitted to go before the representatives of the roads to present arguments for or agalnst the changes. At the present meellng 500 changes are docketed, some of them materially aftect- ing Omaha and Missourl river common polnts. The shippers and jobbers of St. Louls are urging upon the raliroads a policy of bringing the rates on carload and less than carload lots closer together, and permitting the mixing of shipments in the same car. As a rule the western ship- per and jobber Is opposed to the change, and efforts will be made to have the pres- ent classifications in this regard waly- talned generally, and in some cases & change toward increasing the differential in favor of carload lots will be urged. At the meeting Monday ecach of the changes docketed will be comsidered and its effect upon the trade of Omuba dis- cussed. If the changes proposed are con- sidered of enough importance a committee will be selected to visit Monterey and present the clalms of the Omaha shippers. I | Hall county. 0. A, Abbott Paya His Hespects nntor Millard and Expresses His Views. 0. A. Abbott of Grand Island dropped into Omaha Sunday morning to pay his r spects to Senator Millard and incidentally take @ hand in the fight in progress In his home city over the proposed change in location of the postoffice building. Mr. Ab- bott was enthusiastic over conditions in “We are in the corn belt thi year by a big majority,” said he, “Nev before hove we had as much moisture in the ground. The snow and rain has placed us where we can stand all sorts of drouth this summer and an ordinary hot wind will have less than its usual terror for There isn't much of a rush to the pie- counter yet around Grand Island. The com- mission of our present postmaster will not expire for some time, and until then thero will be nothing in a federal way to give out We have an unwritten law now that t must be rotation in office, so expect the; will be a new face behind the screen some time before the present administration goes out of power “I want to say something about Senator Dietrich. 1 have known him intimately in A business way for many years. It is said he is impuleive, but you will find that his impulses are all in the right direction When a question Is before him for decision he may decide 1t impulsively, but nine times out of ten he will reach the conclusion which would be arrived at by the average man of high motives after much considera- tion. He is a safe and conservative man with all of his impulsiveness and I miss my guess I he is not accounted one of the best senators ever sent from the state before bis term of office is ended." B.

Heart disease was the cause death In lterary and educational circles the name of Musick is familiar throughout the United States, and in Missourl, where he lived for many years prior to his removal to Omaha, he was a prominent factor in republican politics.

Colonel John Roy Musick was the son of Ephraim J. and Mary Musick and was born in St. Louls county, Missourl, Feb- ruary 8, 1849, He received the degree of bachelor of science from the Northern Mis souri Normal school in 1574 and at once began to read law, being admitted to the bar in that state three years later. He gave up the practice of law In 1582 that he might devote lis entire time to his literary work It was about that period that his influ- ence began (o be felt most strongly in republican politics in Missouri and every presidential election he was repeatedly called into the fleld for campaign speeches. About that time, also, Colonel Musick was appointed United States district commis- sioner for the district in which he lived. Upon the election of Willlam McKinley to the presidency for the first term the post of consul to Siam was tendered Colonel Musick, but he refused, preferring to give his attention to his chosen work. Visit All Parts of World. Of late years Colonel Musick traveled extensively and gave his impressions and the facts he gleaned from his contact with men {n all parts of the world to the read- ing public in many forms. He studied his- tory from the standpoint of the story- teller and then retold the tales in a charm- ing way, but never sacrificng the facts for the sake of the story. His most ambitious work is the “Colum- bian Hist al Novels,” twelve volumes now veing on the market and giving the history of the United States in twelve stories.
