Tomorrow, or the Sunday following
ut the latest, there will be several i'm
portant changes on the Omaha road.
The opening gun was fired this week
by the removed of E. Dunn as train
master and the promotion of E. Carnes
to the vacancy. MIR. Carnes has for
several years past been road-master
west of st. James and has resided at
Worthington, but his new duties will
necessitate his removal to st. James.
Another important change is the ad-
dition of two new passenger trains be-
tween St. Paul and Sioux Falls, and
will be known as Nos. S and 6. They
are the same lately known as the Des
Moines trains, running between st.
Paul and ElmOre, suspended about
four weeks ago. At Sioux Falls the
new trains will make close connection
with trains to and from Mitchell, thus
forming direct communication be-.
tween the latter place and st. Paul.
The trains now running from Worth.
ington west will be suspended. as the
two new trains will take their place.
The train crews now at WorthingtOn
will make their headquarters at st.
James, as will also one or two crews
from the east. Engines and crews
will change on all trains at St. Paul.
St. James, and Sioux Falls. Other
changes include the removal of several
officers to st. James in the near future

TO BE CONSOLIDATED.

A telegram from Washington says
that the three land Offices in Lind 3
'iistrict-Tracy, Redwood Falls and
WOrthingtOn-are to be consolidated.
The law places it within the discreti. n
of the secretary of the interior when
the receipts of 4 land Office fall so that
its expenses exceed one-third Of the
amount received to consolidate that
office with another. The receipts Of
these land Offices have fallen very low,
80 that neither of them exceed $4,000
per year. The question of their con-
solidation was referred to the commits
sioner of the general land Office, who
has recommended that the three land
offices be consolidated. The question
has arisen as to where the consolidated
office shall he located. Certain influ-
ences have been at work, among them
it is said that of J. F. Meagher, 70 secure
its location at Mankato. This is hard.
ly to be considered, however. as
would take the new Office at least Is
miles away from the vacant public
lands and entail great hardship upon
people with final proofs. contests ol
filings to make. It seems pretty cor
tain. however, that the three Offices
will be consolidated at All early day.
