THE WORLD ON WHEELS.
The Anaconda Company May Build
. Lins of Its Own to the
Smelter City.
Mr.. Haggin and the Railway OH
cials to Meet in New
York Today.
railroads In Iowa Have a Rough a
Combining Against the Farmers
Northern Pacific Affairs.

If no agreement is arrived at to-day at
4he meeting in New York between Mr.. Hag-
Gin, representing the Anaconda company,
and the officials of the Northern and Union
Pacific railroads. there will probably 90
some lively railroad building on the other
side of the range within the next ninety
DAYS. Marcus DAILY is quoted as SAYING
that unless the Montana Union railway
agrees to do business for his company al
the old rate, the Anaconda people WILL al
low the works to remain idle until IL can
haul all its supplies to the smelter city
over its " rails and on its own cars. 1t
will be recalled that not so long ago the
Anaconda people had a disagreement with
the Montana Union people and had a force
of men at work locating q line of railroad
of its own to Anaconda. Should the Mon
a Union hold to its new rates ana MI.
DAILY carry out his threat to build, much OF
the preliminary work has been done, SO
that the work of building could be pushed
with great speed. The Montana Union,
with all it's branches, has a length OF track
age of only 81 2-10 miles, though for Its ex.
tent. it is said to do the largest amount OF
business OF any railroad in the United
States. When the Anaconda was IN full
blast thirty trains left n entered the
wards of the company daily. In ore alone
, the road hauled 1000 tons every twenty-four
hours. With copper barely holding lts
own. owing to the large surplus, to the out
slider it seems as though the Montana Union
selected an lnopportune time to raise It's
tariffs on the Anaconda people,.

Railway Employees VS.. Farmers.

A movement is on foot to organize a po-
itical association of the railway employees
of Bloomington. Ills, and vicinity as a
brance of the Railway Employees Protective
association. There are nearly 1000 railway
employees centered about that city,, of whom
the Chicago and Alton employs about four
ffths or more. The manifesto in regard to
the organization proposed says that the
unreasonable and hostile granger leglsla-
ton in the west has deprecated railway Sc
c%urities. The stockholders. instead of re-
ceivinQ dividends on their Investments,
have been assessed to pay the running ex-
penses of the roads. Cutting down ex-
penses is the war cry all along the line OF
every western road. Reducing the force
of employees and shortening the
hours of labor is the rule in an effort
to keep the expenses within the income.'
The result, says the manifesto, is that
large number of good mechanics and rail
way men are tramping around the countr,
seeking employment. These things are thu
result of the unjust discrimination agains
railway companies, and all because the
farmers are organized. The members o
the local branch of the National Association
of Mechanics requested the Mclean count,
members of the legislature to use ever,
effort to defeat all bills that are hostile t.
the interests of the railroad companies ant
calculated to confer special benefits upol

To Force Scalpers Out.

A determined move on the part of all the
strong lines in the United States is being
made to drive scalpers out of business. AS
nearly as can be learned the movement has
been placed in the hands Of the various as
sociations, with instructions to drive the
scalpers to the wall. There is an apparent
unanimity on the part of all the lines, but
it is noticeable that in all cases the plan
has been fsthered and urged by the strong
lines. One of the leaders of the movement
shows as among its first fruits a telegram
from North Carolina. 1t said that a law
had just been signed by the governor and
made effective. f%orbidding anyone to barter
in railroad tickets except he were an au-
thorized representative of the company
whose tickets he sold. The same law has
almost passed in Minnesota and within the
next two years will be pushed before every
state Legislature. The movement towaro
abollshing unlimited tickets, which is in {
fair way to become effective through the
New York meeting, is a part of the genera
plan. A conservative estimate places thu
yearly loss to railroads on account of thu
scalping business at $25, 000, 900.

Inwa and the Railways.

For two or three years past the railroads
doing business in Iowa have been having a
hard time of it. Each successive ieglsla-
ture has made the laws more stringent on
roads doing businest in the state, cutting
down their rates and placing their control
more and more in the hands of the state
railroad commissioners. Officers of rail-
roads Joins business in the state have
RECENTLY expressed some views on the
situation. President Miller. of the
Chicago and st. Paul, savs:-"Some of
our lines in Iowa paw a fair income on the
capital invested, as they are on the direct
transcontinental lines and do interstate
traffic, but taks our Iowa lines as a whole
and they dc not pay a fair income on the
capital invested nor anywhere near 1T. Our
statistics will show even as to the transcon-
tinental lines tina the amount of business
contributed to them by the State of Iowa Is
less than one-fifth of the entire business.
The only cause for this, not attributable to
legislation, is the fact that there are too
many railroads competing for the same
business, the natural result of which Is an
unreasonable depression of rates. You Will
understand this to be an incidental cause.
s.The prime causes of the unfavorable con
ditions are radical legislation and constant
doing two things-endeavorlng to
prevent competition from running wild
and producing more serious dlsas-
ter than the present conditions
and, second, curtailing expenditures
of an operating character within the strict
est possible limits. As to the future there
seems to be no encouragement In 1t what
ever. The conditions are not such as to
encourage investments of capitalists and it
is we'll known that capitalists are naturally
timid."
General Manager st. John, of the Rock
Island. puts it in this way: 1T is probable
that the only good result which can follow
the present condition of railroads is that nc
new lines will be Built in Iowa. With Sc
c%urities of the only lines which pay divi,
dends selling in the market at a discount
of from 80 to 40 per cent, with dividends
at the lowest ebp and with only % per cent.
of the lines in lows paying adividend there
is no inducement to construct new lines
and everything to indicate that to do SO
would be folly. Besides, it is we'll known
that capital is too timid to submit itself tc
the uncertainties of the legislative anc
state official control which now surrounds
railroad prosperity"

Northern Pacific Plans.

The Northern Pacific will shortly begin
some extensive construction operations on
the western end Of Its line. A party OF
engineers ia now engaged in making a per-
manent location for the proposed new
tracks from Conlee City to Waterville, and
it is expected that the Washington Central
will be in readiness for operation to the
latter point by the time next seasons crop
is harvested along the Big Bend. From
Waterville west to Wenatchee only twenty
five miles of road will be necessary to con-
meet the two lines and the comparatively
short distance will make the completion OF
the matter easier than otherwise. Surveying
parties have also been sent out to locate a
ronte from the head of Moses Conlee to the
Okanopan mines. A line has been sur
veyed up the Columbia river. but it turns
out to be somewhat more difficult than was
expected and the exact route is not yet de-
termined. Another extension contemplated
is a line from Lewiston to Camas Prairie.

Great Northern Plans.

President Hill, of the Great Northern,
has returned to st. Paul from his European
trip. Talking about the various reports
which have been published as to the object
of his trip abroad, he said the writer's had
apparently given free rein to their lmaRina-
ton, and especially was this the case IN
connection with the rumored purchase OF
the Kansas City road. His trip abroad,
Mr.. Hill stated, was largely one of personal
pleasure, and he had enjoyed it very much.
The c%ompany's Pacific coast extension
would be pushed forward vigorously, but
the exact terminal or the details of the ar
rangement and prospective arrangements
could not yet be stated. AS for the story
Of conflicting interests and prospective
troubles to be raised by the Northern "a
ciic on account of any agreement q tne
Great Northern with the Union Pacific, it
was a very mythical one. The interests OF
the Great Northern and the Pacific Snort
Line were certainly very closely alileo, put
not to the extent of an outright purchase,
as has been stated.

THEY CAN HAVE WAR.
GOVERNMENT POLICY TOWARD
INDIANS TO BE CHANGED.

It Is Stated That Hereafter They Can
Have All the Fight They Want-No
More Bulldozing Goes-Troops Sent 60
Bounce Squatters From the Puyallap
Reservation.
WASHINGTON, June 1.-During the re-
mainder of the present administration
the Sioux Indian will not bulldoze the
government, but when he offers to fight
he will get it right from the word go.
The commission which is going out to
treat with the Sioux relative to the ad-
iustment of boundaries and other mat
tiers will tell them that it is the desire
of the government to deal fairly with
them, but a reasonable submissiyeness
to the demands of the government will
be required.
In changing the boundary lines so as
to bring the Rosebud Indians into one
reservation the consent of the Pine
Ridge Indians will be required and also
the Northern Cheyennes, whether In
South Dakota Of Montana.
1t is also expected that an effort will
be made to induce the Lower Brules TO
go over to the Rosebud reservation, and
in return for giving the Rosebuds ten or
fifteen miles of Pine Ridge they will
have to accept not only the Brules, but
the Indians who have settled near the
mouth of White river on the ceded lands
who are already crowded and somewhat
harassed by the white fettlers all around
them. .-
Pettigrew Has Scheme.
Senator Pettigrew has a scheme in
connection with the change of bound
aries and other work Of the commission,
which is to practically treat with the
Brules for the cession of their reserva-
ton, which is the richest and best of
lands west of the Missouri. 1t is be-
ieved that in case the Brnles are guar
anteed the right to select lands.in sever.
atty on the Rose bud they can be induced
to give up their present reservation If
they are paid fair price for it. There
are number of things which the de-
partment wishes to be brought about,
but the method to be employed is left
almost entirely to their own discretion.
1t is desirable to carry out the will OF
congress and group the Cheyennes all on
one reservation, but as the secretary
is supposed to prefer the policy of bring
ing them all to Pine Ridge and the In
dians are known to be against any such
move, it is difficult to see how the mat
ter is to be accomplished. ..- =
The commission expects to devote
most of the summer to the work OF set
tling the Sioux difficulties.
