MILWAUKEE, April SO.-The decree
ordering the sale Of the Northern Pa
sifc railroad and all the property Of
the company, including stocks. bonds
and lands. has been signed by Judge
Jenkins, in the United States court.
The decree, however. is by no means
final. and has very large string at
tached. which gives the court the right
to make any notifications he may see
fit, both as to the terms and conditions
Of the sale. and as to the distribution.
The reservation Of the court gives the
creditors of the Northern Pacific COM
pany, outside Of the bondholders. both
in and out Of the reorganization agree
ment. the right to come into court at
any time and apply for. relief which
the court reserves for itself the right to
grant, especially reserving jurisdiction
for this purpose.
Judge Jenkins also signed q supple
mental decree which orders the sale Of
lands west of the Missouri river, and
which are held to be subject to lien
OF the preferred stockholders. The
land to be sold is in North Dakota,
Montana, Idaho and Washington.
Sale to Occur Within Sixty Days.
The sale is to take place from the pas
senger depot of the Northern Pacific
railroad in West Superior within 60
days, unless Judge Jenkins sees fit to
interfere in the meantime. Special
Master Carey is to sell the road in three
parcels. covered by the general second,
general third and the consolidated
mortgages. The general second mort.
gage is adjudged to be lien on the en-
tire railroad property of the main line
and subject to the general first mort
gage. and the Missouri and Pend
d'Oreille division mortgages. The gen.
eral third mortgages cover the property
not covered by the general second and
the consolidated mortgage is secured
mainly by stocks and bonds.

proving the report Of Special Master
Carey on the accounts of Messrs.
Payne, Cakes and Rouse, the original
receivers of the Northern Pacific rail-
road, up to Feb. 81, 1896.

Electric Bitters.

Electric Sitters is medicine suited for
any season, but perhaps more generally
needed in the spring, when the languid,
exhausted feeling prevails, when the liv.
err is torpid and sluggish and the need OF
Il tonic and Alternative is felt. A prompt
u sc of this medicine has often averted
onl and perhaps fatal bilious fevers
No medicine will act more surely in
counteracting and freeing the system
from the malarial poison. Headache,
Indigestion, constipation, dizziness yield
to Electric Bitters. Only fifty cents per
bottle at Scheldrup & Fiesler's Drug
Store.

President c. Z. Perkins OF the Bur-
hngton railroad and a party of the
heaviest stockholders and chief officials
of the system will reach Billings this
morning in a special train and will
spend a day or two in that enterprising
little city. 1t is also expected that they
will visit Butte and Anaconda before
they head their special east again. I'M
less they are greatly pressed for time.
The general belief in railroad circules is
that there is some significance in the
visit oil President Perkins and his dis
tinguished party TO Billings at this
time. and that their business there is
In relation to the extension of their
Montana line from Billings to Butte.
and while IL is possible that their trip
To the western terminal may simply be
tour OF inspection, there are good
grounds for such a belief. 1t was stat
ed last year semi-ofiicially that II 1895
was a good year for the Burlington,
work would very likely be commenced
on the western extension from Billings
this spring. The year just closed was
one of the best that the Burlington has
ever had, and even with its immense
equipment of rolling STOCK, IL found II
difficult for a time to handle the great
volume of freight traffic as promptly as
is its custom.
AS has been previously stated in the
Standard from an authoritative source,
the Burlington's line to Montana has
made better showing I'm earnings than
any other part of the big system. and
IL is also known that the officials of the
Il. & NJ. road are heartily In favor of a
further extension westward this year.
The constant increase in business
which the Burlington Is receiving from
Butte has been extremely gratifying 10
the officials and at the same time sur
prising TO them, and there appears TO
be a good chance that their suggestions
win be carried out and that the road
viii be extended TO this city this year.
A survey of the extension from Bill
lings to Painted Rocks on the Mussel-
were at work last year on a line from
that point to Butte. A significant feat
ure in connection with the present
western trip of the big chiefs of the
road is that just two years ago Presi-
dent Perkins and the same men who are
with him now paid the same kind of a
visit to Sheridan. which was then the
western end of the system. Just two
months later the construction crews
went to the front and the construction
of the line to Billings was commenced
One thing is certain. and that is that
the first spadeful of dirt that Is thrown
on the grade of the line between Bill
lings and Butte will be followed by the
fastest railroad building the West has
ever seen.
