CRAZY KING OTTO.

His Majesty Sullen and Violent
Proper Treatment Might Effect a
Cure.
WASHINGTON, Dec. H. Munich dis
patches say that crazy King Otto of Bava-
ria is growing rapidly worse. He is by
turns sullen and violent and has lost his
appetite. DR.. Muller, physician in ordi-
nary to his majesty, expresses the opinion
that If properly treated the king would
still be durable. At the time the king was
under his care, at least, the doctor states
that his state of mind was such that keen
watchfulness and careful treatment would
have restored gradually his reason. He
then submitted it as his opinion to the
ministry of the royal house that change OF
air and scenery might permanently restore
the kings mind.

RAILROAD PROGRESS.

RAILROAD PROGRESS.
Statistical Report of the Interstate
Commerce CommIssion-Increa in
Undergraduates of Railroad Cor.
poratfons-Tendency Toward Con.
solidation.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The fourth sta
tistioal report of the interstate commerce
commission gives an spitome of railroad
progress in the United States for the period
covered. The railway single track mileage
in the United States on June 80, 1891, was
1853, 4O2. IA miles. The total mileage of all
tracks was ZIG, 149 IA miles. To every 100
square miles of territory Connecticut had
2077 miles of track, Massachusetts, rs 90
miles, New Jersey e. II, New York 16 10,
Pennsylvania 22.77 miles. The only coun-
tries in Europe which have an excess
of ten miles per 100 square miles
of territory are Germany 12.44 miles,
Great Britain 1442 miles. France
11.06 miles, Belgium % 90 miles,
miles. No country in Europe, Sweden
excepted, has ten miles of line per TO- 600
inhabitants, while in this country, on the
other hand, but two states have less than
ten miles of railway per 10000 inhabi
tants.
The increase in railroad mileage during
the year was a ,S05 SO miles. This is less
than the average of increase for several
years past. The greatest activity in rail-
way building seems to have been in the
states lying south of the Ohio and east of
the Mississippi rivers, the total being
1,670.63.
There were on June 80, 1891. ,7S5 rail
way corporations, of which 889 were indie.
pendent companies for the purpose of
operation and TAT were subsidiary COM
panies, the remainder being private lines.
The actual number of railway corporations
in 1891 ia less than the number in 1890.
The tendency toward consolidation is in
dictated by the report. On June 80, 1891,
there were forty-two companies each OF
which controlled a mileage in excess OF
200 miles, and nearly one-half of the
country's mileage is the property of these
companies.
There are eighty railway companies
each of which has gross revenue in excess
of So, 600, 900. These companies receive
S29 per cent. of the amount paid by the
public for railroad service. The total mum
Der of locomotives used by the railways Of
this country was on June 30, 1891, so, 1879
an increase of 1899 during the year, and
the total number of cars the property OF
railways was 1, 215. G II, an increase of 49,,
944. The total capitalization was 50. $50,
475, 515, or $50, 942 per mile of line. This
shows an increase in outstanding capita
of 5000 per mile, compared with the pre-
vious year.

The Bank of Camas Prairie.

w. w. Brown. cashier of the Bank Of
CaTas Prairie. arrived here with his
family from Lewiston on Sunday and
Immediately proceeded to hunt up q
suitable location in which to trans act
the business of the hank. No better
building offered for the purpose than
the editorial rooms of the FREE PREss.
and this was vacated Tuesday and the
great safe, weighing 1900 pounds and
the furniture, which all arrived Tuesday,
were safely placed therein. The Bank
of Camas Prairie is now open and ready
for business. This gives Grangeville
two banks and is an indication of the
commercial Importance to which our
town is slowly growing and also of the
confidence which the enterprising mon
led men back Of these concerns have in.
onr future growth. Grangeville is the
gateway to tho Bitter Root and Salmon
river regions and its natural advantages
and the public spirit Of its people are
such that its present pre-eminent
position as the largest town in the heart
of the state, will be maintained for many
long years to come. Mr.. Brown was
formerly cashier in John Burke's bank
in Lewiston, and later assistant cashier
to the Lewiston National bank. The
business of the new bank Of Camas
Prairie is therefore in thoroughly com.
petent and trustworthy hands. A list
of the incorporators, directors and of
ficers of the bank will be found in ito
advertisement on another page.
