REPORT THAT COMES TO OMAHA Arrangement Mutually Agreeable to Ralirond and = Government Is Made and Omaha is Conwes awently Gratitied. The Mérger of Harriman railroads will not be dissslved, o Omaha men close to Unlon Padiffe authorities have been given 1o undérstapdl An arratigement mutually satisfactory to the goyefnment and the railrond interests has besn deéided that will allow the Union and Sotithetn Paeifle roads to remain as one ling, under one management. This is the information that has come to Omaha from sources of authority, it is sald. Omaha business men in many cases have expressed the bellef all along and the hope with the bellef that this or some such settlement would come of this clamor for a separation. of these roads. They realize there is a selfish motive back of thelr de- sire to Nave Omaha remain as the eastern terminus of the united roads, the greatest transcontinental line, The return from the east of Nelson .| . Loomis general solicitor of the Union Pa-{ cific, is Jooked forward to with much eagerness. Mr. Loomis has been east on this mission for & month. Spens Comes from Rate Session. C. E. Spens of Omaha, general freight agent of the Burlington route, has re- turned from Denver, where he was a cen- tral figure in 'a four days' hearing before the Interstate Commerce commission. Small coal operators in the Walsenburg coal fields, south of Pueblo Colo., peti- tioned the Interstate Commerce commis- slon to reduce the rate on coal to Ne- braska and Kansas points. The coal dealers seek a rate of $3.25 to inland points in the two states and a rate of $3.40 to the Missour! river in lieu of the present rate of $376. Mr. Spens was on the stand considerable of the time during the hearing In Denver, presenting the rallroad side of the ques- tion. It will be some time before a de- vision is reached. Burlington raliroad officlals are prepar- ing a report of frelght business transacted through the Omaha offices during the last five years, which, it is sald, will show a wonderful growth in the freight traffic over the preceding five years. It is estimated that the freight business has inereased in Omaha 120 per cent during the last five years, according to a rail- road man. The amount of business over the Burlington lines in Omaha is greater than that of any other eity on the rall- road. F. A.

This is iustrated by the appearance before Judge Gearge A. Day in dlstrict court of John Ealdwin, the son of the late John N. Bald- win, who was general solicltor of the Union Pacifle. Years and years ago in Towa, Caleh Baldwin, father of John N. Baldwin, and grandfather of John Baldwin, was a jus- tico of the supreme court.

OMAHA PLANTATION IS THRIVING Andrew Farrar, Now in Charge, Set- ting Out Trees for What Will Be the Largest Fig Orchard in the World. Robert Houghton, tne contractor, has re- turned from Califérnia with his family after a stay of eleven months. They are again established in thelr home at 2002 North Thirtieth, “Work is very quiet in San Francisco, Oakland and Los Angeles at this time," #ald Mr. Houghton. ““There are three men for every bricklayer's job offered just now. There Is not much cement block buflding being done as 1 expected to see, but yet that materlal is being used in a growing ratlo. - “Oakland struck me as being the great gainer by the disaster from which San Francisco sutfered. It has experienced a most remarkable growth in population, and San Franelsco will fiever get back thou- | sands who moved td the other side of the tay at that time.

Many who live In Oakland work and transact business in_San Francisco, of course. Speaking of the plantation near Butte City which he went out to manage for the Omaha people interested with him in_the enterprise, Mr. Houghton said 1,000 acres of the 1,000 in the tract have already been £010 In smail tracts of five, ten, fiftecn and twenty acres. “Andy” Farrar, form- | erly superintendent of the Douglas county | poor farm, 1s now in charge of the planta- tlos which is being set out to figs. | “Even with only one-third of the area {planted when 1 quit the place,” sald Mr. | Houghton, ““we have the largest fig orchard {in the world.

Farrar is proving a flne man for the place, and when I left California he was busy setting several thousand new fig trees. “The climate agreed with me and I like the country, but Mrs. Houghton was greatly pleased when she found we cowid get possession of our home and come back. She declded to start next day after learn- Ing we could get the house, and bluntly told me I could stay in Calfornla if [ wanted to. I decided to sharpen my pencil, ccme home and go to figuring on contracts again.” SRy i Sudden Freeze Woe for Flynn Street Boss Turns Out Flushing Ma- chines—Then the Thaw Ceases “Woe is me,” sgng Street Commissioner Fiynn, as he abandoned the flushing of the street Intersection at Sixteenth and Farnam. “Here I am, stalled by a sudder treezing wave just as 1 get nicely started cleaning away the loose dirt. Before day- light I got the flushing gang out, hoping the soft atmosphere would hold long enough to enable us to flush all the prinei- pal downtown Intersections at least. And behold, just as we get going good, along comes Jack Frost. Now we'll have to haul cinders and throw them over the flushed places." “This thing of bringing two north poles into the country in one year is something no one can stand up against. I'm opposed to any more hunting expeditions for cold things to Import. We got along all right while we left the north pole where it be- longed, and I'm ready to chip In to také it back." {REAGAN ORGANIZING IN DUBLIfi President of Douglas County Demoes Fame Abroad. Word comes from John E.

Besides, 1 do not propose that Colonel Fanning shall pose as the only Dahlman missionary abroad In the world. Let him do what he pleases in the land of Pharaoh, I have a club here every member of which can say ‘Omaha’ and ‘Dahiman’ in English, and next fall we'll have some of them on the stump in Nebraska, Every man Is an orator and some of them can warm the atmosphere at a rate that will make Nick reacaewski take a seat a considerable distance back.
