1t is generally understood that at the June

City road. that President 81. II. Porter will re-
tire and that Marvin Hughitt. now general
manager of the Northwestern. will succeed him.
The present arrangement for an outfit of Off
GERS was made as temporary expedient to let
down the citizens of st. Paul as easily as pos
sible. The business of the road had grown I'M
til it was beyond the control of the old St.
Paul & Sioux City company, particularly after
they were weakened by the death of Horace
Thompson. The heavy stockholders, who
were also mostly officers found good
opportunity to unload and they un-
loaded. Messrs. Porter, Bows ct al. were the
recipients. The former gentleman, as has been
said, only accepted the Office of president tenn
porariiy, at the suggestion of the old owners of
the road, to appease the populace of st. Paul,
who have always taken deep interest in the
welfare of the line and just pride in the con-
troll of it by St. Paul men. Mr.. Porter prefers
to own railroads rather than take an active
part in their management. Whether the June

The Coming citv of the Missouri.

From the Dakota Central's crossing of the
James river to the Missouri at the mouth
of Medicine creek, is about 20 miles
being about 14O miles westerly
from Volga. It is announced
determined to cross the Missouri at or near the
mouth of Medicine creek, over Medicine island,
which is lust below old Fort George, about if
teen miles below Fort Pierre and about thirty
five miles below old Fort Pierre. 1t is presum-
able that the Chicago & Northwestern and Mil
waukee & St. Paul companies will bring their
two lines, now building across eastern Dakota.
together at this point, where the Missouri will
be bridged or tunnelled, whichever the railroad
and government engineers determine to be best,
and whence the two companies will jointly
built and operate one line into the
Black Hills From what is now known of the
river at that point, it is thought it will be
bridged. The two roads will reach the left
bank of the river this season, and connecting
line of stages and freight teams is expected to
take and bring that way the bulk of Black Hills
travel and freight. As the east or left shore OF
the river affords fair site it is possible the
coming city may be located at least temporarily
there, but experienced town site spectators
will venture on the west or right bank, with
the idea of having larger territory from which
to build mp local trade There are some OBJ
structions to overcome however. The eastern
side and the approaches thereto are covered by
the additional reservation" created by Presi-
dent Grant with the idea of preventing COM
petition with his brother Orville in Indian
trading The Wipnebagos have also title to
lands that the roads may need to
cross, and on the west side the Sioux title is
perfect down to the near neighborhood of the
proposed crossing. But the Indian titles can
be peacefully extinguished by purchase and
Grants executive order would be overruled in
walls.
