Austin, MankatO & St. Cloud II. II. News.
The latest information we have in re-
gard to our new railroad is from the Pres
ident of the Railway Improvement Co. of
North America This is his reply to the
recent notice of the Executive Committee
of the Austin, Mankato & St. Cloud K. X.
Co. that the bonuses were voted and
everything ready for work: II beg leave
to advise YOU that as soon as the new
beard is organized we will commence
work at once" The new board referred
to means the new board of directors
elected at the recent annual meeting of
the new company at Mankato. The
names of these have not been made pub
lie, but we are assured by those claiming
to know that the character of the men is a
guarantee of the completion of the road.
This bit Of news was given to the public
two weeks ago, but as there is considera-
BILE inquiry for railroad news, we give it
as the latest and only reliable information
at hand Also, the following extracts
from exchanges:
The city council met on Wednesday
evening last and passed resolutions au-
thorizing the issue of the $40, OOOin bonds
to the St. Cloud, Mankato & Austin K. K.
Co. The mayor went to St. Paul on
Friday, but, owing to verbal alterations
tons brought here by Mr.. Officer, Mr..
Jpham, president Of the 1st National
bank of St. Paul, declined to receive the
bonds. The council on Monday evening
manifested disposition to adhere to its
position, and correspondence regarding
the matter is now in progress between
the city attorney and Gordon E. Cole,
attorney for the company.-St. Cloud
Times. Wuy %.
Manannah and Union Grove towns
carried their bonus propositions, on Sat
urday last, and are now enabled to hold
out TO the construction company 9,OOO
bait as an allurcment up that way. There
is not the least doubt but that such cheese
is very acceptable to railroad mice, and
there is no knowing but what they may
succeed in getting the road up that way.
The propositions were carried by good
maiorities in. each town. The vote as
reported to us was as follows: Manannah,
so majority for, and Union Grove 19
majority for.-Litchfeld Ne1osLedger.
The surveyors for the st. Cloud Il Man
kate road are working near Berlin now.
We understand that some of the Berlinite.
who have fought and bled for the road
are sore troubled lest it should be laid
south of their town as the present survey
is being made.-WasecG Herald.
Gossip has been current on our streets
for O week or two that the St. Cloud,
bIankato & Austin road would not be
built this season. From a reliable source
we are authorized to state that there is NO
foundation whatever in fact for any such
statement. The people along the line
have fulfilled their part in the contract,
the construction company has signified
date, and the entire line will no doubt be
put in operation before cold weather OF
the present year.-Mankato Free Press,
