When the first rumors regarding the
work OF mysterious party Of surveyors
along the Missouri above Yankton began
to circulate they were received with dis
trust. Their continued confirmation by
persons of reliability renders it certain
that some movement of importance is in
progress. The parties executing the
preliminary work have been thus far
successful in conceallng their identity
and have kept their operations tolerably
well guarded from the public.
They have scanned the river banks
from Yankton as far up as Bon Homme
during the past three or four weeks but
the most of their actual work has been
put in two miles above Yankton at point
which river men have frequently men
toned as affording the best crossing
facilities on the Missouri. 1nnumerable
soundings have been made at that cross
ing and the river bed has been probed
for the rock foundation supposed to
exist there. The approaches to
the river on both sides have been sur
veyed and on the Nebraska side we know
that stakes have been set. Possibly the
Dakota side has also been staked. This
surveying party is completely outitted
with appliances for their land and water
operations and it undoubtedly reached
the scene of operations by circuitous
route, rs its conveyance has never been
seen in the city. Because of these opera.
tions it does not follow that a bridge
will be built at this point, but it Ger.
tainly indicates an intention to make
the crossing if conditions are found fav.
orable. The parties behind these move.
ments are unknown. The surveyors, when
questioned, decline to give any informa.
tiCn. Speculation is rife and con1ec.
lures of all sorts are made. The Union
Pacific, the Omaha & Northern, the
Duluth & Southwestern, the Chicago
Northwestern and the Milwaukee an6
st. Paul have been successfully guessed
at as the operators, but with no salts

who the operators are, If bridge il
