RAIL AND RIVER,
Il Capitalists Offer.


The following letter was received by
Gov. Hubbard from New York capitalist
yesterday, offering the most advantageous
terms for developing the resources of
Minnesota, by the opening of new railway
routes, and accompanied with the request
that it be given to the press of the state
for publication:
New YORK, 149 Broadway, June 81, 1885.
Gov. l.. F. Hubbard-Dear Sir: respect
fully call your attention to matter hav-
ing reference to the material welfare of
your state.
You will agree with me, that the build
ing of long lines of railroads through your
state, would be of great benefit to your
people.
Very often the people are confident the
bonds could be placed, b1t they know that
bankers will not advance money to build
railroads, and therefore they do not organ
ize, not knowing where to go for funds.
L will therefore inform you that 1 am
prepared to carry on the building of sew
| eral long lines of railroad at a time. and
do not want any money till sections OF
twenty-five or fifty miles are built and
equipped.
| would desire companies to place theil
bonds, to be cashed when sections of TWEEN
ty-fve or fifty miles are completed
If you would give this letter to the pres;
for publication, no doubt it would resul
in the building up of your state. Your;
truly, ALBERT L. RICE.

E.V Smalley, who has devoted good
deal of time to Mr.. Wizards affairs and

way company, and who is now eng tged
in writing b story Of the road, tells the
story of the famous "blind poop as fol-
lows:
Mr.. Willard exercised every precau-
ton TO conceal himself as buyer, using
exclusively his private means and cred
it, In this way he very quietly took
out of the market large lines OF the de-
sired stocks during the month
of December, 1880 and January 1881.
Having thus obtained the
virtual control of the market,
es regarded three stocks he was buy ing,
lie felt sure that complete success was
only question of further investment.
Early in February, 1881, he decided &c
call on his friends for funds Tor further
purchases-in such a manner, however,
MS would not yet disclose the real object
he sought to accomplish. Having abso
lutte Saith in the soundness of.his pro-
icct, and feeling justified in taking large
| r, sponsihiities, as the assumption OF
such was in the direct interest of all
concerned, and was the only sure means
| of accomplishing his purpose, he de-
| cided to make the strongest appeal any
| man could make to the confidence OF
others in him by asking his friends and
| followers to place their money in
| his hands without telling them
| the use of which he intended to put it.
| Accordingly he issued private circular
| to about fifty persons, informing them
| ~ hon .s,a ri a N
| fund of S., 600 0U0, to which he himself
| would contribute large part, in order
| to enable him to lay the foundation OF a
| certain enterprise, the exact nature OF

effect of the announcement was marvel
| Gus. The very mystery OF 1t appeared
| to be an irresistible attraction. The re-
| suit was that one-third of the persons
| appealed to signed the full amount asked
| for before the subscription list could
| reach the other two-thirds. Then an
eager rush of applications for the right
