Samuel White has secured Judg-
nent against the Duluth and Winnipeg
Terminal company and the Canadian
Pacific for $3.50 900. Prior to the judg
ment, Mr.. White already owned a large
block of the stock, and, with the addt-
ton that the judgment will give him,
will have a controlling interest. In this
connection, it is rumored that President
j. j. Hill, of the Great Northern, has
an interest in this and that the long
talked of deal between the Great North
eTn anG the Duluth & Winnipeg line
will be consummated. The interest Of
the Great Northern in the Duluth &
Winnipeg road has always been point
ed out by shrewd guessers. When the
Duluth & Winnipeg was sold at auc-
ton by the master in chancery last
summer, it will be remembered thaC
the Great Northern bid high for it in
from gaining possession. With Mr..
White in charge of the terminal prop
erty in Duluth, the Great Northern
can extend the line into the iron ranges,
and, besides having a strong pull on
the ore trade, will have a cinch upon q
large portion of the Canadian wheat
trade.

Senator Stewart, the Time
Tried Silver Champion,
Says Wheat Crop is Going to
Bring Prosperity.
People Can "GO To Sleep and
Get Rich"
NO ONE CAN BE A BEAR
In View of the Upward Ten
dency Manifested.
The West With Its Immense
Crops is Booming.

New York Aug. 12-The Times today
publishes the following:
Senator Stewart is one of the latest
converts to commercial optimism HC
is ''bull' on everything except silver.
He is engaged in vigorous campaign
in Wall street and said yesterday that
he had heard so much about better
times that he has determined to gather
in part of the prosperity, which is
not only rampant in the street, but
throughout the land
When asked what had brought abou-
the change in his views, he said:
There is no room for pessimism in this
country. No one can be a bear in the
face of the wheat famine in Argentine,
Russia, Hungary and India. In view
of these conditions abroad, should nos
be surprised 10 see silver sell as low
as 25 cents and wheat as high as a dol
lar.
There is nothing in talking silver at
the present time, and my advice to my
friends in the west is to fall in line with
the forces of prosperity and progress
and receive their due share of the re-
ward
The time has passed for the old is
sues. We must turn to face new issues
and new conditions 1 frequently hear
it said that this security market is
not. 1t is more of a bull market. All
a man has to do is to get into it. go to
sleep and get rich. The wheat situation
in the west will make every railway
not a dividend Garner, but a dividend
payer. Railroads that have been NOR
ibund for years are. now taxed to their
fullest capacity and are still unable to
accommodate their traffic. l am told
that there is imminent danger of car
famine on many of the most important
lines traversing this country
Are the people in the west alive to
this new situation?"
THE people of the west he replied,
ssare wide awake They know a good
thing when they see it,. Most of them
are hanging on to their cereals with
confidence born of hope and actual
knowledge of What is going on around
them. With their immense crops they
will be able not only to hquidate their
Indebtedness to the money markets of
the east but will inaugurate buying
movement that will surprise the peo-
pie in this part of the country. I think
that by the late fall the truth of what
I said and reiterated during the cam
paign will be generally recognized and
this is that there can be no general
prosperity in this country that is not
born and sustained in the west"
