RIPE 0 ACTION.

The immediate extension of the Chey
nne & Northern to a junction with the
Northwestern is an event of more than
ordinary importance to Cheyenne. Ia its
incomplete state the road was a positive
injury. A few months hence, however.
the intervening tWenty-eIght miles will
have been built, and the great north and
south line from the Black Hills in
Dakota TO the Gulf of Mexico will be
opened for traffic. Converse, Natrona,
johnson and Sheridan counties, which
have heretofore been practically cut of
from US, will then be within compare
lively easy communication. Better rail
road facilities will bring about better
acquaintance and lead to closer business
relations, which we hope will prove profit
able to the people at both ends oil the
line.
With the great traffic on the Union Pa
clic lines north and south of US the com.
pany can afford to give the best of accom-.
modations to the travelling public. and
aspiring Cheyenne merchants may easily
push their trade into regions which are
now utterly beyond their range.
Now hat there has been an official an.
nounccment of the Cheyenne & Northern
extension we hope the Union Pacific, in
Justice to itself, will make a further ex-
tension so as to place Buffalo in railway
communication with this section of the
territory. Besides stimulating the
growth Of the territory almost beyond be
liefit would give an outlet to the northern
agricultural products and provide them
with a ready market here. Most of the
supplies which we now receive from
Colorado and for which there is already
an ample market in that state could then
be received from northern Wyoming and
in this manner the two sections would be
rendered largely self supporting. A Zig
mineral belt would also be opened and
cattle shipments, which now find their
way to the Northern Pacific, would in
stead come down ovef the Cheyenne &
Northern and be carried to Omaha or
Chicago by the Union Pacific and roads
with which it is in alliance.
We sincerely hope that the Union Pa.
cihc managers will soon see their way
clear to making the Buffalo extension
as this will give an impetus to develop
ment which the entire territory will feel.

The idea of three men going into a
scheme that resulted in cutting down the
representatives of their own country one
third without any basis of reduction and
afterwards Dragging about their diplom-
acy Is enough to make even the saddened
Tim Kinney laugh The Sun.
The foregoing is pretty nearly correct
except that the three men did not go into
the scheme that it did not result in cut
ting down the representation from their
own country; that their was a basis for
such reduction and that the gentlemen
named did not afterwards brag about their
diplomacy.
The apportionment bill was tackled on
to the appropriation bill on motion of Mr..
Burdick, seconded by Mr.. Galbraith. 1t

At Q o'clock yesterday morning the
scholars were pouring into the Cot
tage Grove school, which is located
on Thirty-tifth street, near Cottage
Grove avenue. Just before the hand
met the even hour there came the
banging of gongs in the street. An
alarm of fire had been turned in and
the hose cart, engine and marshal's
wagon tore by the school house. The
tide turned. The scholars who were
going in swung around and started on
a run after the fire apparatus. Teach
ers rushed to the windows and called a
halt, but in vain. Nothing could stem
the tide. The principal rushed out to
the door and welded the big bell Wig

as he received no attention. Every
one was on the run in the wake of the
iremen. 1t was n false alarm, as it
usually is in that neighborhood, and,
after seeing the boysin blue rake down
their fires, the scholars strolled back
to the school house. There were too
many delinquents to discipline and
they took their seats without a word
of correction. AT recess the largest

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE.

Favorable Reports From Northern
 States-Trade i'm the South Affected

 ufes.
 NEW YORK, April 25.-R. G. Dunn & Co.'s weekly review of trade says: Trade re- ports this week are favorable excepting from the region affected by the almost unprece- dented floods in the Mississippi valley. Great damage to sugar plantations seems inevitable and the losses exteninR over ten parishes of Louisiana will affect trade for year or more. Three of the trunk lines are inter rupted and their losses will be considerable. having affected crops unfavorably, but real estate is very active because of the prospect of harbor improvement: In Florida business is very dull and no encouraging signs are per- eeived. But all northern centers of trade the situation is very satisfactory, the volume of business is large and collections are fairly prompt and while the money market is everywhere fairly supplied the demand at
 most points is but moderate.
 The business failures occurring throughout the country during the past seven days as reported to R. G. Dun & Co. and E. Russell & Go. of the mercantile agency, number for the United States 179, and for Canada 39. or a total of 218 ss compared with a total of 21S as compared with 8 total of 214 last week and 209 the week previous to the last.
