irregular, and the temper OF speculation
continued bullish. There is neither con
firmation nor denial to the reports con-
corning the stock dividend to shareholders
of the Chicago and Northwestern Railway
Company. On this subject the Post says:
Undoubtedly many million dollars have
been diverted in years past from dividend
fund to construction expenses aud the stock
dividend would rest on. not unreasonable
claim that the stockholders are entitled to
some representation for money so diverted.
Some branches of road, now moderately
profitable, were improbable for several
years after their acquisition, and money
was diverted from the treasury of the COM
pany merely to operate them. The CAPT
talization of this money would simply be
the capitalization of business losses. As
to the wisdom of increasing the capitalize
ton, the tenor of conservative opinion is
that it would be well to wait until at least
the company could carry the present rate

The Mullen Tunnel.

Work has beeu prosecuted for over
year on the great Mullen railroad
tunnel through the Bitter Root noun
tains, by the Northern Pacific Compa-
ny, on its line across the extreme nor
thern part of this Territory, and 1t is
estimated that another year will see
its completion. The most complete
drilling machinery manufactured is
used in the construction of the tunnel,
which will be nearly 1000 feet in
length. Of this enterprise the Helena
Herald says: From a gentleman
who came in from Mullen tunnel yes
terday evening we learn that the
blasts to be fired off last night in the
face of the big bore would throw out
rock enough to complete the tunnel a
distance Of one thousand feet from the
eastern portal. Soon, in the four diff.
ferent places in which work will be
prosecuted progress of between 81
and 100 feet weekly will be made
There now remains about $500 feet O
