The mechanical department of the UnionPacific Is receiving a great deal of consid-

eration¬

from President Burl'* administrat-ion.

¬

. Some changes In personnel and Indi-cation

¬

of changes in the policy of this de-

partment¬

have already been announced andmore arc expected within a abort time.

One matter under consideration Is thebuilding of new shop' , to be cijulppcd withmodern machinery , to replace the old shopsand antiquated machinery that tor thlrtyI-

HO-

year * have been In UBC In this city.Some time go President Durt said to aBee reporter : "There are a great manythings we need and 1 hope wo will havethem an In time. Wo need a now depotand wo need new shops here. It will takeeomo time to get thorn , but I think wo shallbavo them aome day. "

There la no doubt about the poor condi-tion

¬

of the Omaha shops and their ma-

chinery¬

at the present date and surpriselias been expressed by railroad men gen-erally

¬

that locomotives that are not ex-

celled¬

and rarefy equaled in the UnitedStates can bo turned out from these shops.The ability to make such fine products withsuch poor tools Is taken aa the highestpraleo for the men who do the work.

The old machine shop was constructedIn 1SC7 and will Boon celebrate It* thirty-second birthday. The building shows Itsago and a considerable part of the machin-ery

¬

is as much out of date a* the struc-ture

¬

containing It. The big machine shopreplaced one that wo destroyed by fire In1870. It cannot be considered a modernbuilding In any sense of the word. Theblacksmith shop was built twenty years ago ,

but it Is still In good condition and willBorvo lt > purpose for a number of years to-

come. .

Car Shop * Vcrr Back Number * .

The car* shops were built In 1880. Whenbuilt they were mere sheds intended forhousing the care. They were not modernbuildings when constructed eighteen years

go and a* the demands for larger and bet-ter

¬

facilities have Increaved the car shopshave not been Improved. The bolter shopwas built just five yean ago and is aboutthe best building among the Omaha shopsof the Union Pacific road. It was wellbuilt. Is well equipped and will not haveto be replaced for a number of years. Thegreatest needs at the Omaha shops today ,

therefore , may be summarized as follows :

Modern brick and stone buildings for carchops and machine shops and modern me-

cnaulcal-

and electrical machinery for all of-

tuo shop * .

It is known that there is a prospect thatmien improvements will come to the Omahabranch of the mechanical department at-

an early date. The matter has been underconsideration by President Burt for sometime. The necessary action on the part ofthe director* to authorize the expenditureof a large amount of money for rehabilitatingthe Omaha shops may be confidently lookedfor during the coming year.

The new master mechanic of the Nebraskadivision of the Union Pacific , Mr. W. H-

.Bnrnum.

, arrived here from North Platte.-Neb.

.

. , on Monday morning and assumedcharge of the local shops. His appoint-ment

¬

became tffectlvo on Saturday , but hewas prevented from arriving here onthatday by Hints * Mr. Barnum la alreadyacquainted with a number of the shopmenand trainmen here , having been stationedat North Platte for over ten years. He baanot yet announced any changes bore. JamesH. Manning , whom he succeeded , left forCheyenne , Wyo. , on Sunday morning. Therehe will Uke charge of the Cheyenne shopswith the title of master mechanic of theWyrtnlng division-

.Bmr.

At Cheyenne.The report that the Cheyenne shops , which

ire superior buildings and better equippedthan the present shops at Omaha , will beworked to a greater capacity la confirmedby reports of remarkable activity In thatlittle town. The following Is an extractfrom a recent Issue of the Cheyenne Sun-Leader :

Mostor Mechanic Davis Is still Ignorantaa to where he is to eater upon his "other-duties. ." Master Mechanic Manning takescharge of the Cheyenne shops tomorrow. Heenter * upon the monagment of the shopswith 425 men. As we have ofttntlmeselated before , this number will bo steadilyIncreased to at least 800. At the presenttime more car repairing Is being done inthe shops than for years past. With thepresent large force the shop Is behind In-

work. . Tht Cheyenne shops are to be tbiprincipal on a on the system , with the ex-ception

¬

of the Omaha shops. PresidentBurt promised this several months ago.Business men who received the informationfirst and have been keeping cm eye on theshops have been quietly buying rial estateand one prominent and conservative busi-ness

¬

man has declared his intention of In-

vesting¬

J60.000 in such a manner at once.-Aa

Special in-

UmbrellasSome months ago one of the largest umbrella factories in

the country made a special offer of 500 handsome umbrellasat much less than their real value. We didn't want themjust then , but we had Christmas and you in our minds andwo took them. They ought to makoTsort of a mild sensa-tion

¬

this week. We place them on sale this morning for82.90 each and wo honestly think they are worth every centof a five-dollar bill. They come in 26 and 28-inch sizes , 'have-hollowribbed paragon frames , steel rods , they are coveredwith heavy Taffeta silk and the handles are marvels of beautyin material and design. Some are horn handles with silverfiligree interfacings. Some are mother-of-pearl with platinizedGerman silver , warranted not to tarnish. Some are fineorange wood and cinnamon handles with silver ornamenta-tion

¬

and rounded caps , and some are Malacca handles withsolid silver initial plates. One of these umbrellas will makea beautiful and valuable Christmas gift for a gentleman andwe think we are doing something extraordinary in offeringthem for the price 2.90 each. It's a case ot lirst pick , bestpick. There are only 500 , all told.
