of his company, went to Du-
luth yesterday : the trip being

As the st. Paul & Omaha train from Chica-
go was coming through the East st. Paul
yard yesterday morning, gravel train which

command the means for taking possession of
the road and building the proposed connection
with st. Paul; but it will take some time for
the receiver to close out his trust and transfer
the property; and there are as yet no indications
of beginning construction of the st. Paul line
this season, as has been falsely reported.
