RAILWAY AND TELEGRAPH
Discussed in Their City Relations
by the Chamber of Commerce.

by the Chamber of Commerce.
Besides discussing the matter of the
remuneration of st. Paul, the cham
Der of commerce yesterday listened to a
letter from the Chicago board OF trade
in relation to the new uniform bill of
lading, a poStponement of the operation
of which is desired. The mercantile
committee will investigate the matter.
A resolution introduced by Mr.. Smalley
was adopted, and calls for better tele-
graph service by the Western Union
and North American telegraph COM
panieS at the union depot. Mr.. Foulke
offered the following:
Whereas The city of ST. Paul has now
goodly number of street railroads operated
with horse and cable cars and electric mo-
tors, and is soon to have further and i'm
portant eXtenslOns and
Whereas, The lines at present have little
connection with each other, no line running
to the union depot no cross connecting line,
or. in other words no satisfactory connect
ing system: therefore,
Resolved, That our committee On streets
and roads and parks be requested to consider
and, if possible. to report some plan by which
the convenience of the street car passengers
and the interests or the city may be further
promoted without detriment to those of the
city railroad company.
In connection with his resolution Mr..
Foulke suggests the practicability of
short OF longer Sibley street line, line
from the depot crossing the Fourth
street and Seventh street cable line
and the Fifth street electric line, and
connecting, if deemed desirable, with
jackson street or other horse car lines.
The matter was referred to the COM
mlttee named in the resolution.
Mr.. McCardy, chairman of the COM
mittee on taxes, city and county Off
cials, reported that the total assessed
valuation of real property for the year
1890 is $106. 100000 as against S1O1, 000,
600 in 1882 The valuation of personal
property this year is S17.000,000, and in
1889 S1S.4G0,000, thus showing an in
crease in real and decrease in the per-
sonal property assessment. The estl-
mated expenses for running the county
for the ensuing year is S2S3.000, and the
amou Mt levied is $273.000.

GIVE SATISFACTION,
The Joint Agent of the Railroads
at the Stockyards.


at the Stockyards.
A very satisfactory appointment for
the live stock men of this section is
that of Daniel W. Porter to position of
joint agent at South st. Paul union
stockyards. He was formerly with the
Rock Island. Manitoba and 9th
er roads, and has for years,
past been with the Western
Weighing association at Minnesota
well-eXperienced and thorough railroad
man, who has the confidence of the
various roads that have gone into the
Joint agency. The Union Stockyards
Journal says:
The appointment of a joint agent to
represent at this point by the railroads of
the Northwest is matter that has been
desired by most of the roads for a long
time. The live stock commission men
have been particularly anxious for such
an arrangement, which has been de-
layed little in securing for the posi-
ton man who would be satisfactory to
all the roads. For special reason the
Wisconsin Central road is not in on the
joint agency represented by ID. w.
Porter, but asst has not been large
carrier of cattle during the past year or
two it is not likely to cut much of a
figure i'll that department excepting,
possibly, on through east-bound ship
ments of range cattle that stop very
short time, If at all, for feed and water.
The joint agency will be of particular
value in facilitating the freight mat
tiers here. Account sales are now OBJ
tainable more promptly than ever and
shippers will be able to get their con-
tracts stamped here without having to

city council was held behind closed
doors. Beside all the aldermen and the
chamber of commerce committee, City
Attorney Holman. William Pitt Murray

Der of commerce committee. The
officers already elected for the
chamber of commerce committee
are to act for the joint com;

not yet been decided. A meeting is to

A few years ago Travelled on a sany

carly on our journey, but they did not
annoy us, for, unless they are particu-

bells. Our Yamshile driver assured us,
however, that before the lakes Oadoga
and Onegskoc Osero) were passed we
would have our hands full and we were
not disappointed. The mail road or
trakt over which we Travelled is splendid
ly kept by the government. 1t leads
through forests of giant pines, crossing
frozen rivulets and winding over and
round through mountains of whose
nakedness, barrenness and desolation
only inadequate ideas can be conveyed.
Away toward the southwest were the
lakes, frozen many feet deep. The pine
trees and smaller growths glistened
with frozen white and bent beneath
their burden and the ground in the forest
ana In the open toward the lakes was
carpeted with an immaculate coverlet of
nature frozen hard as steel by the icy at
mosphere. The croaking of half buried
crows and the occasional bowls and bark
ing of the wolves were grim accompani-
ments to the music of the sleigh bells.
On the horizon the three hours sun-so
peculiar to this region-glowed with a
dull golden light that anything but sug-
gested the brilliant sunshine of the south.
There would be daylight for but few
hours, but when night came it would BIO
illuminated by glittering stars and
moon of extraordinary hrilliancy and for
weeks made more beautiful by the au.
rora borealis, whose exquisite colors add
an almost fairy-like and weird splendor
to the scenery. We were nearing the
end of one of the lakes when the Yam
shik drew my attention toa strange feat
ure OF this northern cline. On the
sides of the road we could see the crows
and woodcocks and small wolves and
other little animals buried in the snow
with only their heads pecping above it.
"Thc snow is warmer than the atmos-
phere," said the Yamshik. On we sped
over the frozen road, which rings like
