THE following letter from General
Manager Van Horne of the Canadian
Pacific to Superintendent Egan is the
one upon which was based the inference
that the Canadian Pacific would build
no branches this year. It will be no.
ticed, however, that the dictum is such
that no branches will be constructed an
the province of Manitoba this year, and
the unWise action of the breezy agita-
tors in that provinces, who have created
much discomfort and alarmed capitalists,
is assigned as the reason therefor. In
the Northwest territory there is nc such
agitation and no such alarm-nothing
in the way of the building of the Fort
Benton branch. In fact the cessation of
operations on the Manitoba branches
gives them a fine opportunity to concen-
trate their efforts On the Fort Benton
line, which will be the best feeder that
road will have between Winnipeg and
the Rockies. In this view of the situa-
ton the case is by no means hopeless,
and if the proper steps were taken the
company might be interested in the
Fort Benton branch at once. Here is
the extract from Van Horne's letter:
Referring to yours Of the 9Th instant,
enclosing papers from Mr.. Snowden
about the construction of the Souris
branch, [ can only say that Mr.. Steph-
en-, who is now in England, has been
trying, without success, to raise the nee
essary money for the extension of the,
Manitoba Northwestern to a point be-
You'd Whitewater Lake, as the extern
sion seems to be more urgently needed
than the Souris branch, a much larger
number of people being dependent upon
it for railway facilities; but although
Manitoba Northwestern has a special
land grant, no one is willing to advance
money for its construction at this time.
The action Of the Farmers union and
Of the Manitoba politicians has had ex-
actly the effect that might have been
expected. It has not only prevented a
large number of pepople from coming
to Manitoba, but has effectually stopped
all money coming in for railway or any
other purposes, and I do not think there
is any hope of any railway construction
in that province this season. It is very
extraordinary that people with common
sense should, while demanding the con-
struction of branch lines, with the same
breath attempt to destroy the credit of
the company and render it poWerless to
build them.

THE Benton papers have a great many
strings to their railroad bow. Some of
them should stick. One day they adj
vocate a branch from the Northern Pa
cific via Neihart; another one from
Helena; then one built by home capital
between Sun River and Benton; one up
the north side of the Missouri from Bis
marck, and last and most probable, a
branch from the Canadian Pacific.
Should a branch from the last named
road reach Benton within a year, we
predict that she will also have railroad
connection with Helena within six
months thereafter. For the Helena peo-
pie will not remain long at the mercy of
the n. P. r. r. when they can tap the
G.. P. by building 14O miles of road. No
road reaching Benton from any other
direction, or tapping any other line,
would benefit it as much as this, and no
doubt if the citizens Of the river metrop-
oils make as generous a proposition to
the c. P. company as they made to the
I'll. & B. company they will not be long
without their great desire-a railroad.
This road would open up a vast and UNI
excelled tract of agricultural and grazing
land that would be directly tributary to
Benton. 1t would bring all the emigra-
ton seeking homes in northern Montana
to that city as their objective point. It
would, in fact, make Benton, which, in
our opinion, any Of the other much
talked of connections would fail to do

General Grants ~Unpr1ncip1ed Partner
The Mar Who Ruined the Grant
Family.

A few hours after the suspension of
the great Marine bank If New York,
the firm OF Grant & Ward, IF No2 Wall
street closed its doors and suspended
payment. National interest in the lat
ter failure ran to a high pitch when it
his entire family of three sons were
hopelessly INVOLVED and all their possess
sions swept away through the reckless
ness and cupidity Of the managing part
ner Ward. The first umor stated that
the liabilities of the firm would reach Il
million dollars, and this was considered
a heavy failure when it was known that
the capital of the firm did not reach over
$500, 900. CONSERVATION reigned SUI
preme when a casual investigation re-
vealed that the Indebtedness of the CON
Germ approached the enormous sum of
fifteen million dollars! A panicky feel
ing broke out in Wall street, and the
next five days financial crash upon
crash reverberated its ruin among the
stock gamblers of the metropolis.
Amid all the wrecks that Of Grant &
Ward stands pre-eminently notorious
for its %revoiting dishonesty. Thefirm
is composed Of General Grant, james D.
Fish, president of the suspended Marine
bank, u. S. Grans jr.. and Ferdinand
Ward. Ward was the executive and ac-
tive partner, neither of the Grants TAX
ing any part in the conduct Of its affairs,
trusting the entire management to the
man who proved to be their Nemesis.
An extended article could be Written
Of the astounding transactions of Ward.
In brief, the in which he con
Quoted the business Of Grant & Ward
was to represent to investors that,
through the personal influence of Gen.
Grant, the firm controlled various gov
eminent contracts whereby they could
and were making profits.
Heavy loans were thus secured. For
instance, a Spectator would loan tie
firm $780, 900 for six months upon a con-
tract with them that $4,000 was to be
paid for the use of the principal at the
expiration of that period. Ward would
pay the interest promptly out of the
principal, and the %speculator, believing
that he had discovered a safe bonanza,
in most cases would increase his loan to
the firm upon the same terms. and thus
the mOdus Oper0ndi continued until the
day of retribution daWned. Develop
ments will reveal what became of the
millions that gullible spectators SO con-
fidingly placed in the hands of a reck-
less operator. General Grant and son
are mortified, not SO much at the loss of
their small fortunes as the connection Of
their names with the disreputable acts
of the man in whom they placed SO
much confidence.
Ferdinand Ward is in appearance a
mar ofsabout thirty-five years of age.
He is the son of a BAPTIST minister and
came from Geneseo, n. Y, about eight
years ago, and for a time was assistant
secretary of the New York produce ex-
change. By the aid of a brother young
Ward was established in the brokerage
business, and ostensibly made large
sums of money, and was reputed in
Wall street to be a sagacious operator.
These reputed characteristics gained for
him his partnership with General Grant
upon the recommendation Of James D.
Fish.

Wednesday, and was informed by H. G..
Chaplin that G. G. Howell, the president
Of the company, was in st. Paul on his
way east, and would not return to Belk-

is reported that Howell has forged notes
to the amount Of $4,000, cashed them at
the First National bank of Helene. and
fled the country. This information is
received from H. G. Chaplin, the present
manager of the Belknap Town and I'm !
