About the 1st of May next new nation
al bank will be instituted at ST. Paul, with
capital of 100000. Mr.. F. w. Ander-
son, of f. w. Anderson & Co., bankers,
Springfield, Mass, is now in st. Paul en-
gagged in the preliminary work of the or
ganization. Prominent st. Paul capital
lists will be connected with the enterprise,
but large amount of stock will come
from the East. 1t is probable there is still
opportunity for local capital to find place
in the new bank. Mr.. Anderson is resid-
ing at the Metropolitan hotel.
The committee on streets held meeting
last evening and disposed of the following
matters: In the matter of the grade of
Minnehaha street, between Seventh and
Westminster street, the committee will re-
port to the council in favor of referring
the matter to the engineer for grade; in
favor of refundlng the following sums for
an erroneous assessment for sewer on st.
Peter street: John Sommers, $50; E. F.
Cramer, $1,000; estate of G.. Becht,
S3O5O; William Golcher, S11; st.

change of grade on Rice street, between

The collection of portraits of ex-govern-
ors of Minnesota, in the rooms of the
chief executive in the new capitol, received
a valuable addition yesterday, in a very
fine oil painting, by Gutherz, of Hon. G..
K. Davis. TIE portrait is in a very heavy
gilt frame, about SKA feet, and represents
Gov. Davis in the act of speaking, clasping
in his right hand copy of the laws of
Minnesota for the years 1874-5-the years
of his lncumbency of the gubernatorial
office-the book resting upon the desk in
front of him. The portrait is an excellent
one, and represents Gov. Davis in posi-
ton in which he is best known to the gen
eral public.

ally for police headquarters. The council
referred the subject to special commit

Robert, Starkey and Smith.All of the mem
bers of the committee except Smith held
a meeting last evening and after
talking the matter over concluded to re-
port against the proposition. Each mem

IN Important Decision.
Especial Telegram to the Globe. [

Dies MONIES, Ia, Feb. 16.-The board of
railroad commissioners filed their decision
in the case of the citizsns of Northwood
against the Central Iowa Railroad COM
pany, which has been befors them for
some time. The opinion is lengthy, but the
following are the important points: The
people of Northwood, in Worth county
voted subscriptions and gave private dona-
tions to the Central Railroad company of
Iowa to get the road to that point. Sub
ssquently the Burlington, Cedar Rapids &
Northern built its road to Manly junction,
q point on the Central road eleven miles
from Northwood, and by arrangement ran
over the Central track to Northwood. Sub
ssQueAtly the Central passed into the hands
Of receiver who gave a
lease of the line to the Burlington, Cedar
Rapids & Northern. The Central was sold
under mortgage to the present company,
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1883-02-17

who made lease to the Burlington, Cedar
Rapids & Northern, and abandoned all
trains north of Manly junction. The citi-
zens of Northwood claim this is viola
ton of the charter, and the present COM
pany is legally bound to operate that por-
tion of the road with the rest in cOntinu-
GUS line and ask the board to inquire into
the grievance. The board holds that the
Central is legally bound to operate the
whole line as constructed, and in accord
ance with the original charter of the con-
struction company; that the purchaser
took the road subject to the burdens and
responsibilities imposed by the charter on
the construction company; that those con-
ditions are limitations on the private
property of the corporations of which the
purchases have notice. But the board
reach the same conclusion from another
point of view. They hold that the pur-
chasing company is legally bound to
operate that portion of its line between
Manly and Northwood, in connection with
and as part of its line under the pro-
visions of its own charter, which declares
the object of the corporation to be to &C.
quire, construct, equip, maintain and
operate railroad from the north to the
south of the state of Iowa, embracing the
railroad property, real and personal, of
the Central railroad of Iowa. They also
hold that the lease is beyond the scope of
their corporate power and void, as any con-
tract or lease that precludes them from
the discharge of their charter duties, is
void as against public policy. The com
missioners, therefore, recommend that the
Central Iowa Railway company operate
that portion of it's road.

New YORK, Feb. 16.-For the past few
days there have been several meetings in
this city of officers of the Northern Pacific
Railroad company and the Oregon Rail
way and Navigation company on one side,
and the Union Pacific Railway company
on the other, with view of arranging
through rates and dividing territory and
harmonizing interests in the various
commercial territories jointly reached
by the two systems. The final meeting
yesterday resulted in a satisfactory ar
rangement to both companies, covering a
tsrm of years, the chief points of which
are substantially as follows: First, upon
the completion of the Northern Pacific
railroad to Little Blackfoot, Montana ter
ritory, a point about forty eight miles
west of Helena, where it in
tersects the Utah Northern, and which
point be reached some time in July. The
Northern Pacific railroad will lay third
rail between Helena and Little Blackfoot.
The Utah Northern Will also lay their rail
between Little Blackfoot and Butte City,
fifty one miles, thus giving each line a
three rail connection with the most impor-
tant cities of Montana. The distance
from Chicago to Helena via. Northern
Pacific railroad will be 1868 miles;
by the Union Pacific 1857 miles
The distance from Chicago to Butte
by the Northern Pacific will be 1913 miles
by the Union Pacific 1858 miles, and the
Oregon short line will be extended to Snake
river where it will be met by the Oregon
Railway and Navigation company aud
where the business of the Pacific coast
could be interchanged. Third,
upon the junction of the
Oregon short line with the Ore
gon Railway and Navigation company at
Snake river, freight between the Pacific
coast and Salt Lake will be interchanged
by the new route. Fourth, freight
between Colorado and the Pacific
COAST will also be interchanged by the new
route ifththe rates between Eastern points
and Portland, Oregon, will be the same as
between the same Eastern points and San
Francisco. Sixth, rates for freight between
Pacific coast and points in Montana will
be the same as rates from st. Paul.
Representatives of the Northern Pacific
railroad say the opening of that road into
Montana will make large reduction in
the rates of freight and fare to all impor-
tant points in that territory.

crack of the party whip as loud as he
heard it tonight. If the senate was going
to be driven in this sort of way, any of the
senators were galley slaves-that they had
to be told after three or four weeks of con-
sideration and after receiving in
almost every instance the
acquiescence of the senators
from Ohio, because senators had kilograms
from persons who he thought would vote
for him for president, if he would stand by
them now, and who would bring their
wealth to aid him in his political ambi-
tions. Let it be done. If the senator
could denounce the senate, and say that
Kellyand his men were wiser than the senate
and he would vote against the bill unless
amended in conformity with the house bill
and claim his reward hereafter, let the
senate SO amend it.

over. On motion of Mr.. Bayard the house
