Farorabre Developments.


A new and favorable feature of the Color
ado pool situation developed, yesterday, in
the calling of meeting between the Mis-
souri, river lines for the purpose of complet-
ing the steps thus far taken in the advance
ment Of Colorado freight rates. The meet
ing was called by General Manager Hughitt
of the Northwestern CATER consultation with
Messrs Cable and Potter, and will be held
at Commissioner Midgley's Office Aug s. 1t
is the intention TO discuss, in addition to
Colorado matters, Nebraska cattle business
also, and an effort will be made to straighten
out the whole western ENHANCEMENT. The
intention, it is believed, is to re-establish the
Colorado Traffic association. 1t is asserted
upon reliable authority that there is no oppo-
stion to the advance, Aug. 1, of Colorado
rates, and the pending meeting is for the
purpose of fully binding and identifying the
Chicago lines with the restoration.

The DeIeuUfeSHin

The Pierre Recorder says of the delegate
matter: "The candidates who are at pres.
ent teasing support, individually or by
proxy, are Delegate Raymond, Col Steele,
Col. Pat DOMAIN and Samuel McMasters.
Delegate Raymond is a very reputable man,
whose chief title to distinction, however, is
the plucby fight he made in congress for
Dakota. But he has in McMasters very
adroit antagonist, who musters a strong and
more ardent following than any other can
didate named" 1t is not fair to place Col.
Donan in the list Of those seeking the nomi
nation, but he would be able to do moro for
the territory than any half dozen others.
The impression among well informed poll
ticians is that Raymond has very little show
for the nomination since the convention was
located at Pierre. The workers are generally
against him, including many who prefers to
be for him.

The Kf,ag.b,sry Storm.

The DeSmet LeaIer has this account of the
late storm in Kingsbury county: The
course Of the storm was southeastern, and its
track from six TO ten miles wide. II struck
the southeast corner Of Klngsbury county,
about dozen miles from this place, and
laid waste some Of the finest farms in the
county. In the center Of the storm belt all
crops were beaten into the ground so that IN
some instances it is impossible 10 distinguish
what the crop was A large number Of our
best farmers lost their entire crop, and many
more suffered losses In greater or less de-
gree. Some who depended upon the returns

The Work of Devils.

PITTsBURG July 29.-Annie Stippich, shot
by VIM. Donaldson, her betrothed, Thursday
last, died this forenoon. Since the shooting
she has made two statements under oath in
which she expressed the belief that the shoot
ing was intentional, as they had frequent
quarrels, and one time he chased her with a
knife, also that he had admitted that he had
a revolver to shoot her. The testimony adj
duced at the inquest showed the victim would
soon have become mother, and that the
shot had caused the death Of both mother
and child.
Thirty-one Italians arrested at Streets run
for being concerned in the Lizzie Bradley
assault, were released this forenoon, the evil
dence showing that they were not implicated
in the affair. Twenty others were arrested

Return of Mr. Onkea.

Mr.. Cakes, vice president of the Northern
Pacific road, returned yesterday from the
EAST, where he has been, as he says, for a
number of weeks, rusticating at the watering
p aces. Report, however, has it that Mr..
Harris, in Oregon, and Mr.. Cakes, in the
east, have been at work upon the important
matter of leasing of the Oregon Railway 81
Navigation company its lines, and that the
lease has been completed. The Northern
Pacific main line ends at Wallula, pa
miles from Portland, and from that point
the Oregon Railway 81 Navigation company's
is used. Although the Northern Pacific is
com peting its Cascade division between Wal
lula and Tacoma, the leased lines between
Wallula and Portland must always be its
chief dependence for au en4rance into the
Oregon capital Heretofore traffic arrange
ment has existed between tue two companies,
but that was an unsatisfactory condition of
affairs to be permanently relied upon.

THE RAILROADS.
Burlington, Cedar Rapids & Northern.

burlington, CedUr IfuptuS IL NOFtHeFUs
Mr.. c. J. Ives, president of the Burling-
on, Cedar Rapids & Northern, states that
good progress is being made on all the ex-
tensions of this road The new extension
from Lake Park, Ia, to Watertown, Oak, a
distance of 100 miles, will be completed by
next October The track on the first twenty
five miles of the road is already laid and
tracklaying has also been commenced at
Pipestown. Two-thirds of the grading of the
entire line is now completed. Work on the
Clinton branch, from Clinton, Ia, to Elmira,
twenty-five miles south of Cedar Rapids, is
also progressing finely, and tracklaying will
be commenced to-day. This extension will
afford the Burlington more direct line from
Chicago to st. Paul than it has at presant by
way of Burlington, and will bring much adj
ditional business to the Burlington d Cedar
Rapids road. Another new branch from
BOWS, Wright county. Ia, will be completed
north to Garner by next Sunday and it is
probable that this branch may be extended
still further north this season.
On the new branch from Postville, Iowa,
to Decorah tracklaying is also progressing,
and the work will soon be completed. Alto
gether the Burlington, Cedar Rapids &
Northern expects to complete 270 miles of
new road this season.. No other road in the
west or northwest will approach this amount
Of new railroad construction this season.
Mr.. Ives states that he has just made a
rip over the lines of his road in the north
west and found the crop prospects most flat
ering. This was especially the case in the
Jim River valley, where the prospects never
looked better. He expects large business
for his road next winter. Mr.. Ives held a
meeting with Mr.. Winter, of the Chicago,
st. Paul q Omaha road, regarding the
troubles about the crossing of the Omaha
line at Pipestown. The difficulties were am
cably adjusted, and the crossing will be
made without further hindrance.

Especial Telegram to the Globe.]

GRoToN, July 30.-The harvesting here
abouts is begun. The crops in splendid con-
dition, and the farmers correspondingly
happy. The prospect could hardly be better.
About 5000 harvesters have been sold in
Brown county, of which 300 have been sold
in GrotoD, of which the delivery is almost
completed, and they will be at work during
the next week.
A party Of railroad officials, of the Rock
Island company, visited Groton few days
since, viz: c. j. Ives, Esq, Cedar Rapids;
c. w. F. Hatch, Esq, of Minneapolis, and
T. Fl. Brown, Esq, Sioux Falls. They came
across the country from Columbia, the
county seat of Brown. accompanied by Col.
c. B. Peck and NJ. S. James, Esq, of Col
umbia. The gentlemen express themselves
highly pleased with this region, especially
with all that adjacent and tributary to Groton.
considering Groton and its surroundings pre-.
ferrable to any other they had visited. And
it is almost certain that branch of the
Rock Island system of railroads will be, ere
long through Groton from Watertown, to
which point, only so miles southeast from
this place, said branch is graded and nearly
completed.
A severe storm of lightning, thunder and
rain with some hail, passed over this sec
ton yesterday, doing little if any, damage to
crops, but Elisha Douglass, highly respected
young man of twenty-five years, was in
stantly killed by lightning at Yorkville on
the Jim, ten miles northwest of Groton.
His clothing were entirely torn from his
body and his hat burned to a crisp. He was
drawing water from well for his cattle
when the disaster came. The amount of
rain fall has been almost unprecedented
during the last two or three weeks for this
region.
Business improves gradually.
! II. c. Sessions and Mortimer Loomis of
the Farmers bank of Groton, have estab-
lished the ''Bank of Andover," at our neigh
boring town of Audover, with Mr.. LOOMS
as cashier.
