Mr.. T. ]. Potter, General Manager Of
the Burlington road, positively denies the
reports current at present that his com
pany was about to extend its lines to st.
Paul. He states that the company has no
use for line of its own TO st. Paul, and
that the Burlington, Cedar Rapids and
Northern road is a good carrier for the
Burlington's business from St. Louis to
st. Paul. Event the Rock Island de-
clared war on the Burlington road it
would not affect business over the Bur
lington road it would not affect business
over the Burlington, Cedar Rapids and
Northern road, because the Rock Island
and Burlington roads each own one third
of the Cedar Rapids line, the remaining
one third being owned by New York
parties who are friendly to the Burlington
Besides the present contract by which
the st. Louis trains of the Burlington
road run over the Cedar Rapids, line does
not expire for eight years.
