THE BURLINGTON.
Some Day IL VIII Come Into Butte, So
NJ NY People Think.

NJ NY People Think.
The current issue of the Wall Street
Journal has the following about the Bur-
lington road:
I'VE are told that the Burlington &
Quincy is endeavoring TO utilize the pres
ent situation in Northern Pacific matters
10 gain foothold in the affairs of the
company. AS we get IL, the Burlington
would not be indisposed to take over the
road altogether or form very close
working agreement with IL, and perhaps
even guarantee the interest on its bonds
or fixed amount of net earnings per an
mum. We are told that something like
a proposition has even been submitted by
the Burlington. The Burlington con-
meets with the Northern Pacific at Bill
ings already and is known to be banker
ing after Pacific extension"
While there Is good reason to believe
that such a scheme as is outlined by the
goldbug publication was seriously consid-
cred by the Burlington road some six or
eight months ago, and that 1t even went
so far to have its engineers make a
careful examination of the Northern Pa
ciiic system and to submit several prop
ositions with the object OF either secur-
ing control of that road or a very close
traffic arrangement with IL, there is little
doubt that these negotiations were aban-
doned some time ago. 1t has been stated
positively by men whose positions make
II possible for them to secure reliable in
formation. that soon after the Burlington
established an office in Butte the large
volume of business which II secured at
this point prompted the managers to at
tempt to either purchase or secure a half
interest in the short line from Logan to
Butte. III a half interest could have been
secured the short line would have been
oprated on something the same plan as
the Montana Union and IL would have
been n very easy matter for the 20" to
have been built from Billings to Logan.
These negotiations, however, were also
abandoned and II is now accepted as a
settled fact that when the Burlington
runs its trains into Butte they will come
in over it's own road. 1t has been semi
officially announced that Immediately
following the first year on the c., Il. a
O system. which would encourage the
stockholders and give IL a cash balance
TO build on. its Montana line would be
extended from Billings to Butte The
present season has been one of the very
best and most profitable that the Bur-
lington has ever had and for this rea-
son well-posted railroad men expect to
see the dirt commence to fly between
Billings and Butte early next spring
The traffic arrangement between the
Northern Pacific and Burlington at Bill
ings is subject to cancellation by either
road on so days notice and as the North
ern Pacific would probably serve notice
OF its intention to cancel the agreement
with the turning of the first sod at Bill
ings. the %" people would lose no time
in getting into Butte. and they are ia
nous for fast railroad building.

ABOUT THE RlGHT-OF-WL

The damage suit of the Butte Mining
a. Milling company against w. r. Ken
yon and others for $17.70 was on trial be-
fore a jury In Judge McHatton's court
yesterday. The suit was brought to re-
cover the value of the Kitty O'Brien
mill in the Homestead district, which
was destroyed by fire Sept 2S 1894, while
the defendants had a lease ON IL and
through their alleged carelessness and
neglect. The testimony of the plaintiffs
was to the effect that on May s, of last
year. Mr.. Kenyon and others. who were
working a mine in the Homestake dis
trict. leased the Kitty O'Brien mill from
the company, of which K. E. Congdon is
president. They were to pay $50 a month
and put in a concentration and make 9TH
er improvements and repairs. In Au-
gust the fire box and combustion cham
bers got out OF repair and big holes and
cracks were made in II so that the fire
escaped and frequently set fire to the
mill, and finally burned IL to the ground
on Sept. 2S. 1t was claimed that the
building caught fire so often from the
defect that the leasers kept hose con-
stantly attached to the water tank to put
out the flames. 1t had caught fire early
in the day on Sept. 2S and was put out
and after the leasers stopped work at
o'clock the fire under the boilers was
banked up and no one was left to watch
the place, and few hours later 1t was
burned down
The defense was that the only agree
ment the leasers had with the plaintiff
was TO pay $50 a month"; and did not
agree to make any repairs or improve
ments, although some have been made
and were necessary in order to make the
mill serviceable and claimed that the
mill was not worth more than 81, ,000 The
defects in the fire box were due to a
faulty construction and the attention of
the president had been called to IL. The
cracks and holes were there when the
defendants took the property and the
building never was set on fire, but there
often was a great deal of smoke. On
Sept. Is work was stopped at o'clock
and the mill was not burned down until
o'clock. and 1t was not possible that
the fire under the boilers burned that
long. The defense intimated that the fire
might have been incendary and the de-
PENDANTS at least had nothing to do with
1t and were not responsible for it.
The jury drawn in the case was COM
posed of ]. b. Wilcox, John Boyd, James
Kemp, Patrick Doyle. John Connell w.

The Jury's Verdict.

The verdict of the jury in the case of
the Butte, Anaconda & Pacific railway
against the Volunteer Mining company
was opened in court yesterday and was
in favor of the defendants for the sum
of 1894 The jury found the value of
the ground taken by the railway compa-
ny for its right-of-way over the Volun-
teer addition to have been $50S9 on the
first of October, 1894. at the time the
ground was appropriated. The damages
accrued to those portions of lots not in
cluded within the right-of-way but which
were portions of lots so included, by rea-
son OF the severance and by the con-
struction OF the road, was 1885. The
damages to the remainder of the Volun-
teer addition not included in the right
of-way and not condemned were 81 500.
The appraisers appointed by the court
had awarded the Volunteer company
$500 as the value of the lots taken and
damage to the others, from which award
the mining company appealed and at the
trial. which lasted four days, the officers
OF the company claimed that the ground
taken for the right-of-way was worth
$1,000 and the damage to the remainder
OF the addition was $4,000. but they fail
ed to convince the jury to that extent.
The company, however. made 81, ,5G4 by its
appeal. The Jruy was not polled. 1t was
