About 60 miles of the Williams rail

the graders are within 10 miles Of indie
pendence.
The Manitoba Co. is building 20-mile
section of road from St. Cloud in the d.
rection of Wlllmar. about on the surveyed
line of the St. Cloud, Manksto & Aus
tin r. r. The St. Cloud Journal Press
says:
1t is rumored that the Manitoba has a
double purpose in building this St. Cloud
&; Willnar road. Under the law passed
last winter it will earn a portion of the
land grant offered for the building of the
St. Cloud, Mankato & Austin road, and it
is said that it will also be used by Presi-
dent Hill as checRmate to the extension
of the Milwaukee system into the Mani
TOBIAS territory by the proposed continu-
ing of the Fargo Southern line to
Crookston parallel with that section of
his Glyndon division. In this event the
St. Cloud s. Willmar will be pushed
southwest into the Mllwaukee's territory,
crossing that road at Bird Island, Renville
county, the Northwestern at Marshall
Lyon county, and again intersecting
the Milwaukee at Flandreau. Moody
county, from which point it will run
parallel with that road into Yankton, Da-
kOta.

just because the coffin would cost less.
