SIOUX CITY. To-. April IA bill of
complaint was filed in the United States
court this morning by the North Amer
lean Trust company, asking for de-
cree OF foreclosure for sl,25O,O0O of
bonds against the Sioux City Terminal
Railway and Warehouse company's
tracks. depots and property in this city
because of default in the payment Of
January interest. This is the terminal
property of the Sioux City & Northern

many of the terminal company's bonds
now in default. The property com.
priSss the finest yardage and switching

station, two freight dspots, mammoth
warehouse anG much valuable property.
1t is the key to the railroad situation in
Sioux City, the tracks reaching every
point of vantage, and being so located
that other companies cannot enlarge
their present yard facilities. 1t is a
question here as to whether Hill OF the

RENvILLE, Minn., April 17.-Great
excitement eXi SITS in the township OF
Sacred Heart. in this county, On ac-
paint mine ON the farm of Mr.. Helge-
son. Some prospectors were looking
for asbestos when they ran on to indi-
cations of paint, and, upon going down
three feet, were very much surprised
and delighted TO find their expectations
realized by uncovering a splendid de-
posit of red ochre. The bed appears to
be inexhaustible. and i'll some parts is
from three to fourteen feet deep. Mr..
Helgeson is not very wealthy man.
and is now nearly crazy over the fnd,
as he considers that it will make rich
man Of him.
The craze has spread to his neighbors,
who are neglecting the requirements of
the farm 10 prospect what they hereto
fore considered worthless land. Every
piece of mica that the uninitiated farmer
runs onto he thinks is chunk of gold,
and at once posts off 10 the nearest "eX-
pert" only to have his bright dream of
golden wealth shattered by laugh and
the information that he has a good
specimen of pyrite or mica as the
case may be. The impression prevails,
hcwever. that the valley of the Mime
sofa has considerable hidden wealth.
The asbestos is getting much better
as the miners go down, and. although
there is still considerable granite mixed
with it, the rock is getting softer and
mora isolated. 1t is now thought that
marketable article will soon be uncov-
cred.
