erect new tabernacle in place of the one

lumber from the ruined buildings has all
been carefully preserved and will again be

La Crosse Chronicle.
The Viroqua Censor has the followin Z
paragraph:
A corps of engineers arc surveying a
route for a railroad south of La Crosse,
and last Thursday had reached the mouth
of the Coon and had contracted for the
right of way to that point. The president
of the company informed Mr.. James
Hewey that it was uncertain whether they
would 60 down the river or strike for the
Kickapoo.
People here have about made up their
minds that the Illinois Central company is
behind this scheme, principally because it
looks like natural line for that company
to build. Some, however, feel certain
that it is Northwestern project and
there are reasons for that belief, one
of which is that il would make of some
account three stub roads that are now
really feeders of the Milwaukee system.
The surveying party when here, did not
run line across the prairie, but began al
Gund's brewery and worked southeast, not
far from the bank of the slough. Any one
desirous of seeing the exact route can fine
| their stakes by looking for them. Tht
opening of the Northern Pacific materially
| alters all the settled conceptions of rail
| roading in the northwest and it is no
| strange that the big companies are look
ing for better connections with it and alst
with the equally important Canadian Pa
| cifc.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2.-While the representa-
tives Of the Transcontinentsl association
we're waiting to hear from G. W. Ristine
in regard to his acceptance or rejection of
the oommissionership of that association.
to which he was elected yesterday, the
general passenger agents of Pacific lines
and their eastern connections met today
and took up the mooted question of pay
ing commissions. 1t was decided to allow
a commission Of $3 on first class and
$3.50 on second class tickets on Pacific
coast business only and none on other
business.
A meeting OF lines interested in the Ium-
Der business, from Chicago to the Nilsson
ri river and beyond, was held to-day.
Commissioner Medgely was empowered
to appoint a committee to draft schedule
of differences, and that if the committee
cannot agree the matter is to be submitted
to Arbitrator Bogue.
A telegram was received by the chairman
OF the Trsnscontinental association to-
night from Ristine, the newly elected com
missioner of that association, saying SIM
ply he would be in the city tomorrow
morning. It is believed his decision will
be made known to the body then. No
business was transacted by the association
to-day.

THE NORTHERN PACIFIC.
he GLOBE yesterday morning contained

The GLOBE yesterday morning contained
the announcement that Gen. Herman
Haupt had resigned his position as gen.
eral manager of the Northern Pacific road
and that Vice President Oakes had, tenn
porarily, and perhaps permanently sue
ceeded to that position. Gen. Haupt was
appointed to the management when Gen.
e. E. Sargent was crowded
out by the Billings regime.
Mr.. Billings himself was soon after
dethfoned, and General Eaupt was hardly
warm in his seat before rumors were ripe
that he would be retired. n fast it was
regarded as an open secret that General
Haupt was retained because he had made
five years contract with the road at an
annual salary of $4,000. Ever since there
have been revivals of the rumor of g
change and it may be doubted whethe,
Gen. Haupt has ever been fully il accord
with the Willard management. AS con
| sequence when the rumoI5 were recently
revived of ia prospective change they ere
ated no surprise, and at the same tim,
were given but little credence among out
siders, the impression prevailing that hav
ing tided over several imminent crises be
fore he would probably remain until th,
five years expired.
The positive announcement, therefore
in yesterdays GLOBE, that the change hs'
actually occurred, was consequently some
thing of surprise, as is frequently the cas-
when long talked of matter is suddenl
eliminated.
Daily globe., 1883-11-03
Gen. HQuDt,s Career.

Gen. Haupt has had long and favora
bic connection with the railroads of the
country. He was educated at West Point
where, in the engineers class he passed q
very creditable examination. He resigned
from the army in 1886, and was appointed
engineer of public works in Pennsylvania
which position he held with great oredit
for four years. He then assumed charge
OF the engineering work on the Philadel-
phia i Columbia railroad and conducted
that matter to successful end, and was
made superintendent Of the road in
1S49. When the Hoossc tunnel was pro-
Iected he was selected as eminently fitted
to superintend its construction, and from
1856 till after the outbreak Of the war he
ably filled the position. His patriotic ardor
being aroused he enlisted iu the army in
1861, was appointed brIgadier general in
September, 1862, and given charge Of ths
transportation service. He served through
the ver with great distinction, principally
as an engineer,aud became known through
out the army es the great bridge builder
of the army Of the Potomac.
He was relied upon by Gems.
Mcclellan, Burnside, Hooker, Pope and
Grant to keep the railroads in the rear in
good repair, and it is sufficient evidence of
his ability to state thst each and every one
of the commanders of the army had only
words Of conmendation to bestov upon
the general.
At the close of the war Gen. Heupt re-
suued his direction of the work on the
Hoosac tunnel, and witnessed the success
fal termination Of that great engineering
work of which he was the originator, and
for which be was greatly derided.
In 1881 when the services OF Mr.. q. 2.
Sargent, general manager OF the Northern
Pacific road, were dispensed with, Gen.
Hsupt was induced TO take the Office under
a five years contract at a salary of $I5,0OO
year, with the stipulation that if the
contract was abrogsted By the company
be should be retired on half pay. That
though executed when Mr..
Frederick Billings was president, still holds
good.
Gen. Ha1pt was born in 1917, and is
conseq lently siIty-slI years of age, bu.
man of vigorous constitution, possessing
an iron frame and coed for many years
work IN the future.

"Have you any further matters to make

Nothing, only yoa might announce that

tunnel to-day"
"Will there be any question between the
company and General Haupt, relative tc
his pay under the contract?"
"None whatever. The contract provides
that if he retires before the expiration o1
the time he is to receive half pay, $3.50
per year, and that contract will be fulfilled
He will receive that amount for the re
nainder of the time until the five year!
