By Ceble to the Globe.London, Nov. 25.- Arthur .1. Bal-

four's letter to Mr. Armitage concern-ingthe treatment of Mr. O'Brien inTullamore jail exactly discloses theposition of the government with refer-ence to the refractory editor, the pre-cise definition of which is summarizedin the chief secretary's final paragraphhere reproduced: "I understand thatin refusing to wear prison garb Mr.O'Brien conceives himself to be light-ing for a principle. Concerning thepoint he raises and upon which his con-tention is based there need be no differ-ence between us. When a convict whois able to plead for leniency on theground that be his a weak heart anddelicate lung- refuses to wear the dress

--escribed by the prison in which be isincarcerated force will not be appliedto compel him to conform to ihe rules in this respect.'- Mr. Balfour's !etter as a whole is an exceedingly- I

sarcastic attempt to belittle the prevail-ing Irish methods of agitation, and con-firms the determination of the govern-ment to treat all Irish prisoners as com-mon felons, the only exceptions beingthose who may plead "weak hearts anddelicate lungs" and be sustained intheir claims to leniency by the prisonphysicians.

THE SEARCHof the premises occupied by Callan andHarkins is still in progress." and the dis-coveries made stamp the prisoners asmore important in the estimation of thepolice than any men arrested on similarcharges in years. In addition to thenumerous parcels of dynamite found inand about Callan's lodgings a day ortwo ago. a package containing severalpounds of the explosive was found inone of his trunks to-day. and the policeare confident that he lias been success-ful in in hiding still more of the deadlycompound, which they expect to un-earth shortly. At Harkins" residencenothing has "as yet been found, but thesearch is continued with the same ear-nestness and confidence that character-izes the explorations of Callan's lodg-ing- and their environments.

A Queer Political Issue.London. Nov. 25.— The absurd crisis

in the Swedish diet is attracting the at-tention of all Europe.

Thisman at the last election was electedwith twenty-one others as a member ofthe lower house. By a peculiar law, ifoue mem on{the list of twenty-twocandidates is ineligible for election, thewhole twenty -two, who are voted for to-gether as a group, are declared disqual-ified. This one man's fault disqualifiesall his companions who wen- elected bya large majority. Opposed to the freeraders are twenty-two protectionists,-o the free trade city of Stockholm will•crepresented by twenty-two protec-

tionists. But it is said one of the pro-ectionists is disqualified, so thai will

Superintendent Hoy and InspectorsHoward and Kinney left for Minneapo- ilis to-night with Pete Barrett They!at first anticipated being stopped inCouncil Bluffs, but the friends of the |accused murderer, his mother and At- ;torney Sears, the counsel, instead oftrying to hold him in the country, leftfor Minneapolis on the same " trainwith the prisoner. To a Globe cor-respondent the detectives again ex- iplained the fact to-day that they hail a !clear case on Barrett, "No,*' -.aid De- '.tective Howard. "I have not got the :

cash box which belonged to the eardriver, but we found it all rightwhere we were told Pete Barretthid it. and when it comes to a \u25a0-how jdown the box will be produced in Icourt.** Hoy said: "We don't want to jsay anything about the case- because itwould give the defendant's lawyer a ;

chance to formulate a defense. Threedetectives have worked steadily on the \case since last July, and we owe oursuccess to a woman and some family \trouble. "The GI.ORE correspondent had ia talk with Barrett to-day through thecourtesy of the Omaha police. Barrettsaid: "i did not kill Tollefson, ami was !not mixed up in ii. although 1 do notsay 1 don't know anything about it. 1 idon't want to say anything about the jmatter until I see my mother, What-ever she says 1 will do. I's boys had a !hard name, and while we may betough, we are honest and would not kill 'any person. 1 intend to make mymother defend in*', and as she ha-- lotsof money, she will have to fight it to theend.

THE KNIGHTS OF LABOR.Mr. Powderiy Delivers a Lecture

in Aid ofthe Striking "Miners.Philadelphia, Nov. •*.*>.—"The Past,

Present and Future of the Knights of iLabor,"' formed the subject cf what jwas termed a lecture by General Master |Workman L. V. Powderiy this evening

in Industrial hall in aid of the miners ion a strike in the anthracite coal region.The body of the hall was comfortably-tilled with knights and their friends,among whom were many women. Mr.Powderiy spoke without" notes, and byno means confined himself to his sub- iject. After denouncing monopoly as jsomething that, if allowed ' to jhave its way, would make this 'laud a living hell, ami themost accursed under heaven, the :speaker glanced at the early history ofthe knights, whose organization he" de- jclared was "the strongest in point of!numbers, intelligence and manhood ofany that ever blessed any country."After saying considerable about immi- ]gration and the necessity for restricting jit to those able to understand the priv- I(leges of the country, Mr. Powderiy \turned to the troubles in this jstate ami said. "A breaker is !burned and the telegraph conveys the Inews that the miners have burned it. 1say that is a barefaced lie. The miners ;

know better than to burn down abreaker which gives them their work.No miner ever burned a breaker in theentile length and breadth of Pennsyl-sylvania.*" Mr. Powderiy then said thatthe government should take the coalfields for its own use. so that in case ofwar it should not be compelled to relyon corporations for the coal for its ves-sels to carry on warfare against theenemy. He advocated the governmentcontrolling and owning the telegraph,and then branched off on the politicalparty of the Knights of Labor, closingwith the remark that the Knights ofLabor were not going to pieces.— am :

SENTENCE PRONOUNCED.

Holong:, the Scandinavian Mur-derer, Must Suffer Death.

Special to the Globe.Fergus Falls, Minn., Nov. 23.— The

I sentence which every one has expectedhas been finally passed upon Nels OlsonHolong, the murderer of I.illieField. Itwas the first business transacted aftercourt opened this afternoon. Therewen' but a few present in the courtroom at the time. Judge Baxter not an-nouncing when the sentence would bemade, as he did not desire any scene orunnecessary excitement. Holong's i

brother ami sister, however, came inand insisted on staying, in spite of theadvice of the officers. The sister sue- |

: ceeded in restraining her feelings until ;[ the sentence bad been passed and the; prisoner taken from the room. The jbrother, however, began taking on atonce, anil as soon as Wis was removedhe was taken out by the officers, as herefused to go or tocease his disturbance. iSols did •not appear -any different thanhe has during "the trial. When thejudge was about to begin he was com- 'manded to stand up, which he did. but jas usual inclined his head on his elbowon the clerk's desk ami gazed at the •

floor. When the judge asked him if hehad tilingto say why the sentence!should not be passed upon him he lookedinquisitively at Attorney Rawson, but i

said nothing. Mr. Kawson, in his be- !half, stated that he did not know that !anything else could be said or done, asthey bad exhausted every source. Thejudge then began his

ADDRESS TO THE Tills*>M-T!.

During the entire proceedings there :was no trace of emotion on his face, iEither he did not realize his awful fate jor he did not care. The judge ordered !him removed to the jailami he was at Ionce taken back, the sheriff instructing jthe jailer not to allow any one to see Ihim. The following is Judge Baxter'saddress and sentence: '•The juryhaving found you guiltyof the chargeupon which you were tried, it remainsfor the court to pronounce the judgment Ifixed by law for the high crime of which !you have been convicted. Your counsel Iclaim that the court has the discretion- jary power to sentence of death. Ishould be glad to agree with them in !this case, but am unable to do so. The !exceptional circumstances which would ijustify the court in inflicting anon you !the lowest penalty that of imprison-ment for life—do not exist 111 this case. jThere is no discretionary power vested Iin the court in eases of this kind. To ijustifythe sentence of imprisonmentfor life, the com t must first certify ofrecord its opinion that by reason of ex-ceptional circumstances, the case is notone in which thepenalty ofdeath shouldbe imposed. But the records in thiscase will be searched in vain for anyevidence whatever of such exceptionalcircumstances, or any circumstances towhich 1 can certify of record as a justi-fication for any sentence other than thatof death. Ifthe statutes had providedthat in such eases the court might in itsdiscretion send the defendant to impris-onment instead of inflicting theextremepenalty, then upon a verdict of guiltythecourt could, of course, without givingany reason for its action, properly pro-nounce either

THE SENTENCE OF DEATHor Imprisonment for life; but under ourpresent statute no such discretionarypower exists. You have had a fair trialand have been skillfully defended byable counsel. All that could be done tosave you from the fate that now awaitsyou has been dune, but an intelligentand impartial jury have found youguilty of the dime of murder in thefirst degree, and they were fully justi-fied by the evidence in doing so." Theycould not, under the circumstances.have done otherwise, and the penaltyfixed by law as punishment for thecrime of which they have found youguilty must follow. You should not de- 'ceive yourself with the vain hope thatany earthly power will interfere to staythe hand of the law or prevent the car-rying out of the sentence about to bepassed upon you. but you should lookforpardon and forgiveness only to Him \that is the source of all power. It isconsidered and adjudged and the judg-ment of this court is that you, NelsOlson Holong. as punishment for thecrime of murder in the first degree ofwhich you have been convicted he jtaken from here to the common jail of 'Otter Tail county and there confinedfor the period of ninety days, and that ,thereafter, at" a time to lie fixed bythe governor of the state of Minnesota,you be taken from thence to the place 'ofexecution and there hanged by the Ineck until you are dead."; The last hanging which occurred in 'this state was at Duluth some three j

ears ago and the first case under the !restoration of capital punishment.Sheriff Brandenburg, of this county,was present and witnessed the execu-tion. He did not think then that hewould be the next one to perform the jdisagreeable duty. The execution will •probably occur about Friday, the 24th <day of February. The law says that iit shall not he less than thirtydays after <conviction, nor more than six months. 1There is place in our jaiL, and a yard 1

will be \u25a0- constructed outside, in -whichthe scaffold willbe erected.

THE ARBNSDOJRF TKIAL.A Witness on Hand Who Claims

Leavitt Killed Haddock.Special to the Globe.

Sioux" City, 10., Nov. 25. 1n theArensdorf trial to-day the time has beenlargely taken up in proving the badcharacter and general unreliability ofthe Josephsons who testified Tuesdaythat they saw Arensdorf shoot Haddock.A number ofwitnesses were introducedfrom Yankton, where Josephson and hiswife lived previous to coming to SiouxCity. All told the same sto.iy as to thecharacter of the state's witnesses, bothmorally ami otherwise. James Junkand James Scollard said they could notremember having seen John Robinsonin Junk's saloon just previous to themurder, although they admitted tbat bemight have been there. Robinson'stestimony on Monday went far towardsestablishing the fact that Arensdorfwent with the crews from Junk's to theplace of the killing, and spoils the forceof his alibi evidence. Mrs. Satler, whoworked at the Lone Star res-taurant at the time of thekilling, swore that the Josephsons de-livered milk there at i'»::iO p. m. that day,and not at 10 o'clock as they testify.The defense has a new witness in theperson of a Mrs. Patterson. Her evi-dence will be equally sensational as thatof the Josephsons. Mrs. Patterson is awoman of middle age and earns herliving doing washing and other workfrom place to place. Her testimony willbe to the effect that "on the evening ofthe "killing she had been doing somework at Mrs. Friable s

"* house on WestThird street. She was returning home,and when near the scene of the"killing,she saw a man whom she recognized asLeavitt walk out from a crowd and shootHaddock. He then ran away, but in sodoing he ran against her. as she stoodabout thirty feet from the little black-smith shop, and dropped his pistol.'' ltwas about at that place that the revolverwas found, with one empty chamber.Mrs. Patterson was deterred from testi-fying through fear.

foreign contracts are filled. He esti-j mates the loss at 1250,000. upon which

there is insurance in the amount of$195,000 almost exclusively in Easterncompanies. There is a slavage of about

; $10,000, which is due entirely to thewater supply furnished by the pumps ofthe International distillery. If it hadnot been tor the fact that the distilleryis closed by the prohibitory law the firewould, no doubt, have been squelchedin its incipicncy and the heavy lossavoided.

Progress of the Sanguinary Feudin Hardin County.

Ei.izaiiethtown, 111.. Nov. 25.—TheHardin County vendetta, which threat-ened to depopulate two counties afew months ago, has broken out again.and two more desperate manhuntershave been rushed hence without havingail opportunity to remove their boots.The cemetery record shows a total ofthirteen killed. five of whom have takentheir departure this year. The story ofthe tragedy that provoked the feud iswell known throughout Southern Illi-nois. Ten years ago, Logan Belt, a des-perate character, shot and killed DocOldham id a dame in the Oldham home-stead. Both men were among the mostprominent in the country, and the ex-citement reached a high pitch. Thecommunity took sides, and when WashCovert, a witness for the prosecution,was laid low with a charge of buckshotthe trouble began. Luke Hornbrink,who was connected with the Oldhamfaction, was assassinated on his door-step. Ed Belt was soon after shot fromambush and killed. Logan Belt wassent to the penitentiary for the killingof Doc Oldham, and Bill Fraley wentup for the shooting of Covert. Duringthe trial a ku-klux organization, ofwhich Belt was captain, and which con-tained some of the best men in thecounty, was exposed. This band wascalled "Sons of Liberty,'* and its osten-sible object was to "regulate*' citizens.While Belt and Fraley were in the pen-itentiary a couple of men were killed oneach side.

Two weeks after ('apt.Logan Belt's death his brother, Jim Beltwas shot and killed on the same spot,Cave-in-Bock. These assassinations pro-duced great consternation, and thefriends ofthe Belt faction, among whom ,wasKarl Sherwood and others, received 'orders to emigrate, ami they moved intoan adjoining county. Then Judge Hess, •of the circuit court, who presided atBelts trial, was threatened with death i

if lie did not leave. He armed himself 1and is -till here. Last Tuesday night a Jdance was given at a farm house hearBattery Bock. Among Ihose who at- !tended was Joe Blair, a Belt partisan, 'andSoe Hugleton, a relative of Old- 'ham's. Bill Fraley. who removed Coy- 'ert,' was also among the spectators. 'About 2 o'clock in the morning the fes- 'tivities were terminated by the report •of a pistol and Hugleton staggered back l

against the wall, while Blair"advanced 'on him with the weapon. Before the 'aggressor could fire again Hugletonsprang upon him like a tiger, and dur-ing the struggle that ensued the lights 5were extinguished, a half dozen moreshots were fired and the dancers rushed "

panic-stricken out of the house. Ten 1minutes after the firstpistol shot all 'was quiet again and a half dozen young 'Imen returned. They lighted lanterns 'and found two corpses twined together 'on the floor. Hugleton had been shot 'twice through the body, but ' had sue- (

"Mike" McDonald, the only in-dividual who would be prone to head anymovement to secure the liberation of hisformer private secretary, is more busilyat work trying to secure the release ofbis own brother, "Ed" McDonald, tromthe Cook county jail, and has been veryindustriously employed in this directionfor some months past. The statutes,moreover, demand that the groundsupon which the pardon of anyconvict within the state peniten-tiary is sought at the hands of the gov-ernor with the names of the petitionersfully set forth be published severalmonths before any such applicationmay be made or could be entertained bythe governor. Nothing of this kind hasbeen done, nor from surrounding cir-cumstances is there any likelihood ofsuch a petition being published withsignatures commending it to favorableaction on the part of the governor. Thestatement that "a large delegation willmake the attack on Gov. Oglesby thisweek" is declared to be not only agroundless and silly fabrication, but to-tally opposed to the only legal methodof procedure open to any of Maekin'sacquaintances who were sanguineenough to believe that the governormight be induced to shorten the termof his imprisonment. State AttorneyGrinnell's significant reference to Mike"McDonald's close alliance with the con-victed county thieves and the expressedbelief that his culpability was as great,if not greater, in open court during thetrial would rather invalidate thanstrengthen any petition to the governorbearing his signature fora commutationof Joseph Maekin's sentence. More-over,

SINCE HIS CONVICTIONCol. 11. S. Tuthill, who was thenUnited States district attorney, andthrough whose prosecution Maekin wasbrought to punishment, has been ele-vated to the Cook county judiciarybench with State's Attorney Grinnell.Neither of these judges, from their newand more exalted positions, would belikely to recommend executive leniency jin so notorious a case as that of the bal- jlot-box exploiter, and "other men prom- |inent in the councils of the Democratic |party" congratulate themselves upon jthe fact that the disclosures as to the |breaking into the vaults in County Clerk IM- W. Ryan's oflice. did not extend at jthe time any further than they did. |When the vault was opened the envel-ope containing the legitimate ballots was !taken- out, the fraudulent ones substi- ituted by Maekin and his confederates )either inside or outside of the county |clerk's oflice and the vault doors closed jagain by parties who must certainly jhave known the combination of the <

vault door. County Clerk Ryan himself Ias well as his Chief Clerks Biehl, ('lea-son and Dwyer did not altogether es- jcape suspicion. So many hearts would jache that the "prominent Democrats"" jare as surprised as they are satisfiedthat the conspirators who penetrated to !the very vaults of the county clerk'soflice and effected the political rape ofits contents got off so easily, and thatone whose silence could be bought waschosen to do vicarious punishment forthe whole. It is true that M. C. McDon-ald, the once notorious gambler and po- \litical boss of Chicago, is still .Maekin's !friend and patron, and it is equally true jthat no one whose name would be likelyto have weight with the governor and jrepresenting the better element cf the jDemocratic party, would care to asso-ciate their signature with .McDonald's!in an application to the governor forMaekin's pardon.

THE RAILWAY WORLDThe Threat of the Milwaukee

& St. Paul to Cut South-western Rates,

Is Considered to be a Bluff oa Very Foolish Char-

acter.

A Struggle at Deadwood Between Lines Anxious to

Enter the City. .

New Lines Projected in Dakota General Railway

Intelligence.

A few weeks ago. when the MinnesotaA Northwestern and the Burlington iNorthern withdrew from the trainmanagers* meeting because the Milwaukee & St. Paul would not withdraw tinmilling in transit business, the Milwaukee & St. Paul threatened, by way oretaliation, to cut the rates betw*eeiCouncil Bluffs ane Chicago. It waithought that this threat was madisimply to compel the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy to bring an Influence t(bear to compel the Burlington & Northcrn to come into the arrangement foithe rates in the Northwest establisheiby the Milwaukee ft St. Paul and tinroads acting with the latter. Thithreat has not served its purposeas the Chicago, Burlington ft Quincjhas done nothing in regard to the matter. and so far as can be judged does noipropose to do anything. The Milwaukee has now given the required noticeto cut the rates as it threatened to do.and next Tuesday is the time for themeeting to be held to consider the mat-ter. A well-known railroad man remarked yesterday: "This proceedingon the part of the Milwaukee ft St. Paulroad looks like a very foolish bluff. Ncman that understands the railroad situation can for a moment think that thelatter road can have any serious though!of putting in effect such a foolish andabsurd threat. The situation is verymuch changed from what it was a fewyears ago, when this same Milwaukee ftSt. Paul road.„-.; . used THIS CT.rn

with good effect against the Chicago.Burlington A- Quincy to bring it intoline, it cannot use it that way now.

I Ifit should attempt to do so tne Mil-waukee ft St. Paul would suffer in thesame way. though not perhaps to quitethe same extent, as would the Burling-ton ft Quincy. It must be borne inmind in considering this matter thatnow this club of the Milwaukee ftSt. Paul company has been turned intoa two-edged sword and cuts both ways,

i for the reason that now the latter roadhas opened its new line to Kansas City,and just as soon as it cuts- the rates be-tween Council Bluffs and Chicagothe cut will extend all the way down theriver, taking in Kansas City and ail.The fact is, that just as soon as thisthreatened cut is made, the bottom hasgone out of all the rates all through thatsection. Then what becomes '•.of theMilwaukee ft St. Paul, and how muchdoes she gain by her cut*? It looks tome just as though the latter road hasoverdone the threatening business, andas though that club that used to be soeffective has come to be powerless. Iam curious to see how this road willwriggle out of the hole it has got into.When the roads meet next Tuesday andthe Burlington ft Quincy refuses to doanything, what will the Milwaukee ftSt. Paul do. That's the question."

A Struggle at Deadwood.Special to the Glooe.

Deadwood, Nov. 25.— local warbetween the railroad schemes continuesto the dissatisfaction of the public.The enterprise called the Deadwood ftBlack Hills road was finally refused theright of way through the city at theregular monthly session of the council.The significance of this action can bebest understood by outsiders when it isexplained that so' narrow is a part ofthe city between the flanking cliffs thatthere is not room for the passage ofmore than one railroad track withoutclosing the street there and bisectingthe city as to traffic. Three surveyshave been run through thiscanyon and the stakes standthere side by side, and the roadthat gets the right of way through thispass will practically control the en-trance to the city. The Elkhorn com-pany made a survey early in the season,and a delegation ol ourcitizens tenderedthe company bonuses and the right ofway through. Now a new corporationasks to take the right of way. A thirdenterprise asks to take the same rightof way foritself. A third line will askthe same in the nature of a monopoly.This struggle excites a good deal of in-terest of the people here, when it isnecessary for us all to do our best, andmay and probably will degenerate intoa war of factions. Altogether the situa-tion is one upon which our people lookwith the most anxious interest.

IXTKT4STATK.

Yesterday's Proceedings Beforethe Commission.

Washington*, Nov. 25.— F. Mitch-ell, general freight agent of the West-ern division of the Newport News ftMississippi Valley Bailroad company,was the first witness examined to-daybefore the interstate commission in con-nection with the Standard Oil cases. Inrespect to the fact of a difference inrate as between oil transported in tanksand that carried in barrels, and to thereasons justifying such difference, histestimony was substantially like that ofthe other freight men who precededhim. He declared that his company in-variably charged for transporting oil intank cars at so much per car, irrespect-ive of its capacity. Thereupon a seriesof logs were produced, showing that hehad negotiated with complainant, mak-ing a rate on a capacity of 20,000pounds per car, and a rate on the ex-cess. Witness" only explanation wasthat the amanuensis must have

IXTKKPOJ.ATED MATTERinto the dictated correspondence ineach case. Other letters not in har-mony with the law were also presented.John C. Gault, general manager of theCincinnati, New Orleans ft Texas Pa-cific railroad, was sworn andliis evidence was similar to thatgiven by the general freightagent of * the same :company. Somequestions were asked withrespect totherelations between witness" road and theLouisville ft Nashville, and itwas developed, rather under protest,that there had been a disagreement inpolicy some time back, owing to the de-termination of witness' company to\u25a0jive a strict interpretation to the inter-state commerce law; while he was cog-nizant of a determination on the part ofthe management of the other road prac-tically to injure the long and the shorthaul feature of the law on the theory thatthe "circumstances and conditions werealways such as to justify the rates.

NEVER RECEIVED REBATE.- O. C. Murray, freight traffic manager ofthe St. Louis, Iron Mountain & South-ern road, submitted papers called for bysubpoena and was examined upon thegeneral principles governing shipmentsand movements upon oil. W. J. Brutid-red, of Oil City, general agent- of the Green line, the oil trans-portation line of the Pennsylvaniarailroad, testified that shipping to thesea-board, the Pennsylvania compan*makes no difference in charges whetheiin tanks or barrels. A barrel of oil iareckoned at 400 pounds, including thea barrel, while in a tank 315 pounds is

fc charged for at barrel rates. It wasc also shown that box cars having oilL: in barrels went back loaded with

coke, while the tank cars were hauledback empty. The examination of wit-

'" ness was not concluded to-day. Thef Mobile & Ohio Railroad company, in an-l swer to the complaint of Mr. Bice,s has put in a plea that thec company has changed the rates- of which complaint was mad-> Counsel for Mr. Rice have agreed that- there is no complaint against the com-r p iny's new rates, and that the only re--1 maining ground of complaint is that3 less is charged from St. Louis and Cairoi to Mobile than to intermediate points., Upon this point the road claims,/ under the rulings of the eommis-- j sion, that water competition jus-t I tifies the lesser long haul rates.- counsel for the eases named in the three» j Standard Oil cases, which are to be tried, hereafter in a separate batch, having; moved that Mr. Bice, the complainant,- be required to give a bill of particulars- J specifying dates, etc.. the chairman has* | made a ruling as follows: "Ifthe com-I j plainant relies upon specific instances of> I discrimination he should file a state-- ! ment in the nature of a bill of partieu-> lars, but ifwhat he expects to show ist only a general course of conduct, tho1 effect of which is to work a discrimina-

sel say it is the general course of con-duct they rely upon.

' Xew Dakota Roads.. Special to the Globe.•' ! Fa it*-;o, Nov. 25.—As the eye of the! Fargoite looks over the situation, v.i iii the added avidity of local option.it rests :

' hopefully upon the promise of several[ new railroads the coming year. These,' if they materialize, will open up several

flourishing districts to the traffic of the1 metropolis. There seems to be no doubtthat the Minnesota & Dakota will buildfrom Fargo northwest' to Sherhrookeand New Bock ford. The stirvcvors

• were twenty-miles west of the latterplace when they '. went intowinter quarters. This will .. re-duce the railroad distance fromNew Rockford to Fargo from 163 to 137milcs,and give access to some of the bestwheat country. President Hill has this Iweek started out a surveying party, asreported, to extend the branch runningthirty miles north of Fargo on the eastside of the Red. This is, it is under- .stood, to run west into the great wheat

• fields of Traill, and beyond. Andthen there is a fair prospect that thoBlack Hills road will be started on itsway. There are other schemes floatingabout that may materialize if the signsare r ght. '.'\u25a0;-..'•'
