AAt the Railroad meeting held last
Saturday, Wells Spicer and John Cul-

ITO Chicago, and confer with the Chicago
& Northwestern Railway men. The
following letter from Mr.. Spicer shows
sthe success they met with:
FREMONT HOUSE. Chicago. April 2lst, 1868.
r. ditor.-As I promised you an
early account Of our labors here, 1 will
NOW comply. To begin, will be brief
and to the point. We can accomplish
nothing more than to obtain some in-
formation Of how to proceed in the
future We feel disappointed. but not
disheartened, The facts are these:
The Chicago Northwestern Railway
intend to relay about 100 miles of their
present track, replacing the light raj! by
a heavier one. OF these light rails taken
rup, they will select out the best, all such
as are Of value to relay, and use them
fol. ther own purposes, 70: switches, etc.
Tie remainder they say, will not he
worth the laying, these they will get
re-rolled In Chicago, at an expense of
$40 per ton. They could not, at this
time, dispose of any of them unless for
cash. The company have this year
spent IN Iowa in operating their roads
$500, 900 more than their gross receipts ;
they are highly indignant because of GER
tain acts Of legislation last winter, and
withal at the present do not feel inclined
to further invest in Iowa. The entire
Board of Directors will be out in June
toexanine the Road, then will be tn,
time to strike for it. Again get til,
bonds and securities of the company ii
readiness for the market, go with then
to the large Iron Manufactor, buy tn
iron, trade for It, Keep agitating, keel
doing, it will soon prove successful
This Is the advice we get from them. -
1t Is an unospicious time with them Jus
now In few months it may be diff
ferent; the iron manufactures of Penn
may at once cheerfully sell us the littl,
iron we need OIL our securities; the c. N
w. can't spare 1t just now. We ar,
planning now for the future: learning
how the successful ones have done, anc
by doing as they have done we can hop,
to succeed. They (the successful ones
never got discouraged, but kept on try
Ang and finally succeeded. We shall
now go to some of the other companies
:and see some other railroad men, and

present. We will urge our claims upon
