THE OMAHA DAILY BEE ATURDAY NOVEMBER S LEASE OF THE BURLINGTON Railway Comypany £efi to Foin Possess'on of Railrond. ONE YEAR ‘SP.O“’ OF A THOUSAND re of New Corporation Are ed to Meet Monday Yo rectors, | CHICAGO, Nov. 20.—The lease of the | Burliogton system to the Chicago, Bur- | lington & Quincy Rallway company for a term of 099 years was consummated at Burlington today, when papers in the case were filed there President Harris signed the lease, both for the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rall- | rond company and for the Chicago, Bur- | lington & Quincy Rallway company, as he is president of both corporations. A meet- ing of the latter company was held re- cently and the entire official staff of the | Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Rallroad | company was made the official staft of the | Chicago, Burlington & Quincy Railway com- pany. As a result the officers of the rail- road company, when they signed the lense, simply leased to themselves, as officers of the rallway company, all the lines of the Burlington system The $100,000.000 lowa corporation was founded for the purpose of making a new bond issue to take the place of the va- rious bonds now outstanding against the | various portions of the system and which | will begin to fall due in 190y, BURLINGTON, la., Nov. 20,—(Special Tel- egram.)—The situation in Burlington, so far as the new Burlington Raflway com- | pany In concerned, I8 in a state of statu quo. The sthtément that a lease of the old lines by the new company has been fled fo Burlington is positively denfed by an official who ought to know. However, things are getting ripe for closing up the perplexing details of the new organization Ab adjourned meeting of the stockholders of the new company will be held fn Bur- lington Monday, at which time in all prob abllity the present board will be Mcreased from five to ecleven and the permanent board of directors chosen. The election of officers will follow a few days later. George B. Harrls, president of the old company, will be elected president of the new, and in all probability the other offi- cers will be about the same as in the old company. The old compary will not dis- solve, but will continue to have an ex- istence, there being many financlal and legal interests which arise under its man- agement of the Burlington road which must be loosed after. It is not belleved there will be any material change in the present conduct of the Burlington system. The fact that it is now spendiug over $2,000,000 in improving its lowa lines shows the affairs of the company will continue as heretofore. DIRECTOR SCHIFF RESIGNS His Retirement from Gr B t Northern rd Belleved to Inaugurate a Series. NEW YORK. Nov. The Evening Post printed the following todsy: ‘Jacob H. Bebift has resigned as a director of the Great Northern railway. This is the first of the resignations of directors holding Aeats ‘in“two or more of the northwestern raflway directorates to be announced, and it 18 believed it in to be followed by atild others. It was reported in Wall street toe day that Mr. Schiff had resigned as & director of the Northern Securities com- pany, but this Is not true. The report prob- ably arose from his retirement from the Great Northern rallway board, which was not_ generally known in Wall street to- day. ‘The Evening Post also said today that it was belleved to be only a matter of time and of convenfence when the resignations of E. H. Harriman and J. J. Hill from the Northern Pacific board would be announcel. INVOLVES ~ VAST MILLIONS Plan to Create New Division of Bal- timere & Ohio I Out- lined. BALTIMORE, Nov. 20.—It was announced today that under the financial plan to create a new division of the Baltimore & Oblo railroad there will be available sev- ! million dollars for improvements on the properties to be taken in, These com- prise the lines extending from the great Iakes to the coalfields of Pennsylvania and West Virginia, embracing fourteen distinct properties. There will be issued $20,000,000 of additional common stock and from $35,- 000,000 to $40,000,000 of bonds, secured by deposit of .the securities to be exchang and which are mow treasury assets of the Baltimore & Ohlo.

A WELSH, TRACKS BUT NO CONNECTION Burlingten and Northwestern Both Have Useiess Rails Down. WAITING NOW ON o Pa nanc THE CITY COUNCIL e of (he Right-of-Way Ordi- Wil See a Renewal Effort (o Control Blghth The Burlington took advantage of the Thanksgiving quiet which prevailed by put Uug a large kang of trackmen at work i the disputed territory. They commenced at an early morning hour to lay a track between Eighth and Ninth streets in (he alley south of Harney street and dfd not ceaso until it was completed to the North- western track on the west side of Eighth street, Previouély the Burlirgton had secured permission from the council to lay a track in this alley from Eighth to Tenth streets and the work had been done from the east line of Ninth street to the east lne of Tenth street. A cut of from four to elght feet was then made between Ninth and Eighth, but the work of tracklaying was bung up by a resolution of the council directing that all work In the disputed ter ritory be stopped until a satisfactory set- tlement could be effected The Burlington now has an alley track two blocks long which Is worthiess until a connection can be made with {ts track on Fighth street. This cannot be done Gntil a crossing is made over the Northwestern's track, Likewise the Northwestern's Eighth straet track south of Farnam Is of no use until & crossing over the Burlington's alley tracks can be made. Northwestern officials oy they will make no move until the council passes the necessary ordinance. Yesterday all was qulet in the disputed territory. The Burlington had taken the usual precaution to derail a car where the Northwestern desires to crose, but the watchmen of the rival roads swapped to bacco and storfes with the usual friendli- ness. The “armed forces,” about which so much has been printed, were noticeably ab- sent. More Australian Wail. A second large consigoment/bt Australian- British mail, consisting of 418 sacke. passed through Omaba Thursday enroute east The Union Pacific took it to Council Blufts and made the transfer to the Burlington at 845 p. m. The Burlington carried the mail to Chicago and transferred It to the Lake Shore, which, in turn, will deliver it to the New York Central. The mail left San Francisco Monday and followed the usual transcontinental fast mail route, which has proven to bs fAiva davs faster he- tween Sidney and London than the old Suez canal route. The consignment i due in New York Saturday in time to catch the steamer for Queenstown The firat consignment of one carload passeft Through Omaha on September o and was the only lot of British government mall eyer diverted from the Suez canal route. Two weeks ago another consign- ment, consiating of but a dozen pouches, passed through and made record time to London. It the present shipment does as well it is consldered by raflroad offcials tbat the American route will be officfally designated for carrying the Australlan- British mall. Schedule. The time tal showing the winter schedules of the Union Pacific and fts pro- prietary lines, the Oregon Short Line, the Oregon Rallroad & Navigation company and the Southern Pacific, has just been {ssued by the passenger department. In many ways it is very different from those here- tofore issued. It gives the time schedules of all four roads in both main and branch lines and has numerous new maps showing all the different routes embraced by the system. The cover is done in a bright red and ‘a deep blue which makes the folder conspicuous wherever placed. Talking Fast Trains. A meeting of the Chicago-St. Paul and Chicago-Omaha passenger officials will be held at Chicago next Monday to again take up the matter of fast time between these The weak roads have decided to make an excess fare proposition to apply between Chicago and the Twin Cities, which will be met by a proposal to consider ex- cens fares in conmnection with the train service between Chicago and Omaha and be- tween Chicago and Kansas City. In other words, the strong roads will not favor charging excess fares between Chicago and the Twin Clties unless the grinciple Is plied to the other gateways in which they are {nterested. They take the position that the residents of St. Paul and Minneapolia bave an equal right with the residents of Omaha and Kansas City to fast service and luxurious equipment. Pending a final set- tlement of the question the Northwestern and the Milwaukee are keeping up their fast service between Chicago and the Twin Cities, while the Northwestern and the Rock Island are doing likewise between Chicago and Omaha. Pass Agreement Adopted. The Chicago pass agreement for 1902, with some slight modifications, was adopted at & recent meeting of the presidents of the olorado lines, at which all were rep- resented. The intent of the agreement fs to prohibit as far as possible the issuance of free transportation, which is understood to include not only annual and time passes, but trip passes, trip tickets, mileage and all forms of free or reduced transportation to influence routing busine: The Colorado lines have signified thelr intention of ad- bering to the agreement in the strictest measure. No Increase in Mileage. Members of the interchangeable mileage bureau of the western roads met In Chicago recently and made another effart to make an Increase In the mileage to be teaveled from 2,000 to 3,000 miles before & Tebate s allowed. The result was about the same as at previous meetings. A majority of the roads voted for the proposition, but a few voted against or abstained from voting. This amounts (o a defeat, as the unanimous consent of all roads is necessary before a changs can be made. Merchants and trav- elers are opposed to the change, as mapy of them would be ungble to travel = 3,000 miles within the stipulated time. Te ent Conmtagion. Renewed efforts heinz mads by the Travelers’ Protective association to prevall upon the railroads to separate consumptives from the other passengers. The demand for more rigid hyglenic measures on passenger trains has been urged mildly for years. It 18 generally admitted that strict measures are neceasary, hut the remedy Is not easy, though the Pullman company is now adopt- ing scientific regulations in the south and west.” Bvery car is fumigated at the end of each trip and If a berth is found to have been occupled by a person suffering from a contagious disease the bedding is destroyed. The officials say they can do no more than this The two companies of guards were on Auty again last night. The Burlington guard At the alley next to Farnam street had been increased by several men. In the fort one Llock south, were the three men doing duty for the Northwestern. A man from each party constantly walked his beat and anyone passing down Eighth street was elther requested was shadowed to state his businees or until both guards had been P AFTER THE TURKEY WAS OVER and Jerry Jams and Causes for Men Getting Into Jadl, Other Tom and Jerry, who made thelr debut Thursday, appearing as if by magio upos the bar of almost every saloon in the city, were responsible for several picturesque drunks in poMee court yesterday. Dene nis McCarthy, who was charged with being Arunk and disorderly, had this to say to the Judge I always take my whisky straight honar, but yesterday was Sunday, and “Thanksglving,” corrected his pal, nude- Ing him, “And I ran foul of Tom and Jerry, and you know the rest.” But his honor didn’t know the rest was he acquainted with Tom and and he satd so.

The court seemed surprised. Ile dently thought Tom and Jerry a pair convivial outlaws, Dennis was fined and costs John C. Best also pleaded a too intimate acquaintance with Tom and Jerry and he was required to contribute $1 and costs to the city school fund. Charles Kitchen was charged with being drunk and disorderly and with raising a disturbance in a restaurant on Sixteenth street, near Daveunport. “I went in and called for half a young turkey,’ it stuffed with oyster dressing, and when my order came instead of being turkey it was half a wild goose. They'd tried to palm off a skinny old buzzard of a goose on me. 1 told the waiter I wouldn't pay for it and when he made a pass at me 1 let fly with a cup, and it went through the window." He was fined $5 and costs, which was the most expeusive Thanksgiving dinner he'd ever eaten, but as real turkey was served at the eity jail yesterday, it was perhaps worth the money Frank Dufty and Barton Hiles wére each fined $1 and costs for being drunk and too handy with their rights. They had fought over the possession of the winning number in & turkey raffle Joe Miko had been picked up by an officer while trylng to enhance an already com- modious jag by begging on the street and George Lund had been hauled up out of an areaway, where he had crawled to sleep off a drunk that had taken him three days to acquire.

From letters recelved from difterent parts of the country it scems that Mr. Bell will go info the contest with more votes than any other candidate and will be a few short of a majority on the first ballot. It Is an open secret_that he has the opposition of the officers now at headquarters, who have singled out one of thoir number to succeed the present president, who under the consti- tution is ineligible to succeed himself. Members of the executive committee have made fights Tor delegates in Denver and St. Louls, and from both cities Mr. Bell will bave at least part of the delegations, mc- cording to the promises made by those elested.

Mary Fitsgerald of South Omaha Asks Damages from a § loon Keeper. Mrs, Mary Fitzgerald ot South Omaha h brought action against Charles Winkler, a South Omaha salooukeeper, to recover $5,000 for injuries which her husband, Thomas Fitzgerald, is said to have sustained in the saloon of the defendant. The case is now ou trial in Judge Baker's court. Most of this morning was spent in securing a jury. A score of jurors was excused before the attorneys secured men who were thought to be unprejudiced. In her petition Mrs, Fitzgerald alleges that prior to November 1, 1900, she went to Winkler's saloon many times and warned the proprietor and his employes not to sell bher husband liquor, because he was an habitual drunkard. November 1 of last year Fitzgerald went to Winkler's saloon and Is sald to have bought se much liquor that he lost control of himself. While in ihis kondition he fell and sustained injuries which are sald-to have Incapacitated him for work. Three ribs were broken and his internal injuries are said to be such that the man will mot be: able to support his tamily. Previous (o the time when he became ad- Qicted to 'drink Mrs. Fitzgerald maintains that her husband was a ekilled mechanic capable of earning at least $600 a year. She alleges that the liquor sold by Winkler deprived ber of a livelihood and seeks to recovpr $5,000 from the saloonkeeper and his sureties, T. J.
