New Trafic Bureau of Commerci Club Faces Diffioulties. BLE |MARKETS SEEK ADVANTAGES Citles, Courts, Interstate Shippers 4 Experts Weave Tangled Web in Wentern Rates. Ratlway Commeree Commissio Omaha, Kansas City, St. Joseph and Sioux City want the Mississippi river | rubbed pff the map as a basing point for freight rates. Denver brought a terstate Commerce commission and the decision which, followed rubbed the Mis- ‘ymurl river off the map as a basing po'nt for freight rates. Now Denver wants the Missouri river to ; where It is and rates to break on the river, but also wants & line drawn from Pike's Peak to Denver and the rites to break on this line. When Salt Lake City heard what other cities wanted, the Utah shippers filed & petition asking that the rates from Omah and Kansas City be cut from $2.06 to § or equal to 59 per cent of the rate from Missouri river to Sacramento. The ‘Missourl river case” is in the supreme court; the Denver case eliminating the Missourl river has reached a point where the shippers of Colorado don't want to take thelr own medicine, no action has been taken as to making Denver or its Pike's Peak air line a basing point; the petition of the Utah shippers, with a full history of Utah and the Mprmon chureh, 1s before the lnterstate Commerce commis- slon. e Lefore the In- Something for New Bureaw. This is the kind of &.jumble which the traffic ,ouredu of the Omaha Commercial | club faces upon Its organization, which was completed when the approval pf the execu- | tive committee of the Commercial club was secured Tuesday. The active manager whom the traffic bureau will secure will in all probability be E. J. MoVann, present secretary of the Omaha Grain exchange. The Interstaje Commerce commission seems 1o be having as Il success satistying rival commerctal centers as the rallways always had, according to Omaha shippers | who look over the field with the hope that the new traffic bureau will be enabled to | straighten things out. Though Denver has been in the market for years for lower freight rates, the pres- ent complications had thelr beginning ap- parently when a Kansas City dry goods firm, Burnham-Hanna-Munger, with one of thelr traffic experts, started in to get a | rate from New York City to Kang City only 5 cents higher than the rate to St Paul and Minneapolls. In other words, the ansas Cityans wanted the rates to the Missourl river only about § cents higher than the rates to the Mis ippl river from New York City and eastern points. M ius Shippers Jump In. Omaha, St. Joseph and other Missouri river cities joined Kanmsas City. John L. Webster was the attorney for the Omaha wholesalers and worked with able attorneys from Kansas Cit; The complainants argued that the basing line at the Mississipp! river should be dis- regarded or abolished, but one of the com- plainants’ expert witnes: stitled that he dia not think similar action should be taken with relation to the basing line on the Missouri river crossings. The Interstate Commeree Commission held that while they were not Impressed witih the view that the em of making rates on certain basing lines whould be abolished, that it must not be assumed that a basing line for rates may be tablished ang made an impassable barrier tor through rates. Accordingly the commission ordered a ro- duction of the rates from New York to Missour! river points of § cents per hun- dred pounds on first class freight and it 1s & through rate, disregarding the Missis- sippl river. Denver got wise to through rate from this and secured a Chicago, disregarding | the Missour! river, of $1.80 against $2.05, | Then something happened. The Colorado | Manufacturers' assoclation got to thinking | about the situation and sent this telegram to Chalrman Knapp of the Interstate Com- merce Commission: “The principle lald Guwn In the Burnham- Hanna-Munger case (Missouri river cyse) and the Denver case, 1s destructive to now recognized jobbing centers And Denver asked that the 31.80 rate he not put in to replace the $2.06 rate May 1, s ordered by the commission. The railroads have given notice that they will fight the Denver case regardless of how the courts hold in the Missourl river case, since made It known that the L 88 organizations of that city want the rates to “break’ at the Missour! river, but they also want Denver made a basing point for territory west, which would make {1t possible for Denver to ship to Colorado points and the territory west at the same vate as Omaha and Kansas City, which Denver cannot do at present. What the shippers of Omaha will do is 4 matter of confecture. There Is nothing | | to do in the Missourl river case apparently ‘h‘ll wait f the decision of the supreme | court. Denver is doing all that it is possi- ble to do to keep the rate secured from €olng Into effect, and Salt Lake City fis in the ring stirring things up as much | as possible with an eye to becoming an- | other basing point.

Complaints from strangers visiting Omaha that the city does not have signs telling the name and number of stree have reached the Commercial club to such & number that the club has referred the matter to a munieipal affairs commit- tee to find out why the city council will not maintain such signs. Besides complaining that no signs are maintained several people from out In the state claim the average citizen of Omaha does not know the streets, particularly in the downtown district, and strangers have 4 hard time locating numbers because in- quiries generally bring an unsatisfactory answer. More than a years ago the Real Estate exchange took up the matter and received the commendation of the entire community, some from out over the state. The ex- change secured some sample street signs and had them erected at the corner of Six- teenth and Farnam streets and then forgot about the proposition altogether. The Commercial club’'s committee which banished fruit stands, urged cleaner streets, £ot a crossing policeman at Sixteenth and Farnam streets and other prominent cor- ners to handle traffic and secured several other reform moves from the council, will stay by the sign proposition until they | are successful In getting the street nlmeli posted in plaln sight “Dug” McGuire Has Lovely Tale Bick on Two Beers, Falls Against | Ostrich Plumes, Which Fall, and He is Acoused. “I got sick from drinking a couple of beers, judge,”’ explained “Dug’ McGuire in police court Wednesday while belng tried on the charge of having stolen some ostrich pilumes. “Ap I staggered to the door to leave the store, I knocked my hand agalnst a box of feathers and they fell on the floor.
