CANADIAN PACIFIC EXTENSIONS.
The Work on the Rocky Mountain Exten-
sion Being Pushed Ahead.

OTTAWA, Ont, July 4.-Collingwood
Schneider says that on the Rocky Noun
tain section of the Canadian Pacific there
are now 1000 men at work, and the
track has been laid and completed for
five miles west of the summit of the
Rocky Mountain range, and grading is
completed an additional distance of ten
miles. This makes the completed track
1858 miles west of Winnipeg on the Paci-
fc section. There are now 10 miles of
track laid, and within two months the
whole track will be completed on what
is known as the Onderdonk contracts,
leaving a break of about 276 miles yet to
be completed. Van Horn says the region
west Of Moose Jaw has turned out to be
the best watered of the whole western
section of the road. This seasons rains
have been frequent and copious, more SO
than in regions supposed to be more
highly favored. Ten experimental
farms owned by the Canadian Pacific in
this very section are all doing magnif-
Gently. The grain in that region is much
farther advanced than in Manitoba, and
there will be a surplus of at least ten
million bushels of wheat for shipment
this fall from the Northwest. The pro-
gress of construction on the road was
most satisfactory, and left no room to
doubt but the road on the north shore of
Lake Superior would be opened for
through traffic by an early date in next
year..

with such good effect that both were
soon riddled with bullets. This is the
outline Of the affair as we have learned
it at second hand. Our reporter made a
diligent search Thursday to find MI.
Cloney, but without success, SO that the
details are not at our command. 1t may
be that the report is greatly exaggerated,
and we would judge that it is from the
fact that T. G.. Power & Bro. received

Beginning Business.

CHICAGO, July 5.-Forty-one of the
members Of the New York delegation
held a conference tonight at the Pal
mer house. It was intended to have a
caucus, but as the delegates could not
all be gathered together, ONE not hav-
ing arrived, that plan was abandoned.
Among those present were the Cleve-
land delegates and a number of the
friends Of Flower. The delegates NOM
mated state chairman Manning to be
temporary chairman of the delegation,
and he was elected without dissent.
There was no division Of any kind, SO a
test Of the strength Of the Cleveland and
Flower men could not be as%certained.
The conference adjourned until Monday
at II o'clock, and many Of the delegates
present seemed to think that a further
adjournment would be taken that day
until evening.

fact is, we want a candidate who has
been enough identified with the nation

experience to be called a statesman.
Cleveland made a good mayor and a

custer County Officers Still on the Make

MILES CITY, July 3.-An unexpected
denouement occurred here to-day. A
we'll known pool, holding nearly
hundred thousand dollars worth of in
terest bearing Custer county warrants,
had worked upon the tender sympathies
of the board of county commissioners
until they were induced to pass a reso-
luton authorizing the issue of from
500, 900 to $500, 900 interest paying bonds,
which were to be sold at par, but at the
same time agreed to pay the head center
of the pool, so understood, 7 per cent.
commission for negotiating the bonds.
Everything was going on sWimmingly,
and the pool which had secured their
warrants at a cost of from SIS to 70 cents
on the dollar, were already inflated with
the early prospects of a big margin, to
say nothing of from $1,000 to $14,O 600
commission, and the closing records of
the transaction were being made when
Attorney w. A. Burleigh entered the
commission room, to the CONSERVATION
Of the pool, and in the name Of certain
taxpayers placed an injunction on the
board prohibiting the issue of the bonds
On account of the illegitimacy of their
action in paying a commission for nego-
