MIR. STICKNEY'S ROAD.
The Power Behind 1t and What
1t Is PpOpOSed to Do.

1t is said that the capital behind the
Minnesota & Northwestern is furnished
by two of England's wealthiest dukes
and number of the minor nobility who
are attracted by the large investments
of those titled capitalists. There is no
doubt, says the Chicago Times, that
President Stickney has so far had prac-
tically unlimited resources to draw
from, and his creation of big railroad
system from most insignificant begin
ming is unique chapter of railway his
tory. There are other schemes of Mr..
Stickney's at which he is working i'm
dead sober earnest, which are dazzling
in their magnitude. Among these is all
airline from st. Paul to Duluth, andta
line of big connecting steamers on the
lakes to Buffalo, freight clearing
house, belt-line road and stock yards at
Chicago. deep-water terminals at Staten
island, and a transatlantic line of ocean
steamers to Europe. What other mag
nifcent possibilities the future contains
remains to be seen, but the millions in
vOlved in all the above mentioned are
said to be assured, and the money is
ready as fastas wanted!l; Ifthey should
all be realized and become actualities;
the growth and expansion of the few
miles of road upon which this has all
been and is being built up Twill be a
creation without parallel in railway
history. 81

British Grain Trade.

LONDON, Jan. 9.-The Mark Lane EX-

Ex-senator Mcdonald Says There
Is No Doubt Of Lamar's Con-
firmation. 49,
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 9.-Ex-Senator
Joseph E. Mcdonald has Just returned
from Washington. He was asked if he
thought tariff reduction bill would be
passed at this session of congress, to
which he replied:
II doubt if a bill reducing the tariff
all along the line can get through under
the circumstances, but L am inclined to
believe that some sort of compromise
measure will finally be passed. l look
upon the matter as somewhat doubtful,
however. and l think it can only be ac-
cOmplished after hard struggle. There
will doubtless be long and tedious de-
bate, and there is evidence that it will
prove to be rather heated"
what do you anticipate will be the
nature OF the compromise bill that will
eventually Gomez"
Il know nothing about it, but pre-
sumo measure will be successful that
will reduce the tax on tobacco and en-
tirely abolish the tariff on some of the
cOarSer and most necessary articles"
what will be done with the whisky
tax?''
THAT will not be molested."
"Will Secretary Lamar be confirmed
as a justice of the supreme court?''
cit is my opinion that he will think
there is no doubt about it."

drawing some very striking lessons and
ssetting forth the advance which has
Cbeen made since the adoption of the

Coal Mine ON Fire

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. Am old coal
pit on the DilwOrth property, Mt. Wash
ington, is burning, having been set on
fire last Thursday by some boys. The
intense heat and the apparent Roadway
gained by the fire causes considerable
apprehension among the residents of
the mount, as it is honey-combed
throughout with old galleries, giving
every chance for the subterranean con.
flagratiOn to spread. Another element
of danger is the number of holes drilled
from dwellings to the mines for drain
age purposes which supply drafts in
numerous places not calculated OH by

the managers of the Western roads are
thoroughly alarmed-over the prospect of
% per cent reduction i'm grain rates on

efforts to avoid it. The ST. Louis d Sam

The fear is that the decentralization will
get into Iowa territory, where is an i'm

In the consular reports just published

on refined than on unrefined, 10 the
Russian correspondent urges the Russians
to refine their Oil before shipment leaving
20 psr cent OF residue In II 80 that 1t may
be classed as unretined. He sees no reason
why 1t should not drive the American
article from the Spanish market and II
appears to have done this quite etiectuslly
In Tunie. In 1885 Russian oil WAS not
known In tho latter country and American
petroleum was used In the seacoast towns.
In 1856 Russian oil took possession OF
the market drove Out, American oils
and is rapidly building up . great trade
and driving out the native vegetable OLE.
SO in spite OF our great oil monopoly We
are In danger Of losing the Mediterranean
market, and tho Russians are making
themselves markets in countries where our
boasted enterprise had done nothing. SO
1t will bs while our commerce 10 hampered
by unneeded taxes, and We continue TO
mimic poor old bsrbarous Spain. She has
no petroleum end taxes what We SEND her.
We have no ores like hers and we tax
what We take from her. Both govern
ments seem 70 be doing their best 10 stiHs
