Much Work Will Be Done.

General Manager ]. w. Kendrick Of
the Northern Pacific, is again at his
post of duty after vacation of several
weeks, the first vacation Mr.. Kendrick
has enjoyed for four years. He IS
much improved in health.

nounces that there will be a great deal
of work done by the company the
coming season in permanently improv-
ing the road Operations will be COM
menced as soon as the weather is
favorable. The first thing to be done
is the laying of four hundred miles
of heavy new steel. The work will
require 1000 tons of new rails, several
consignments of which are already on
the way. In addition to this, 300 miles
of new right of way fence will be
constructed at great expense. In many
places steep grades will be reduced,
and the track Strengthened out. Fifteen
new steel bridges will be built to take
the places of as many wooden trestles.

HILL DENIES AGAIN.
Says There is Nothing in the COnsOI-
idation ROmances.

NEW YORK, April 20.-President James
j. Hill, Of the Great Northern railroad, who has
recently returned from a three weeks visit
to Europe, in an interview today denied the
renewed rumor of a consolidation of the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific.
In this connection President Hill said:
1.-The Great Northern and the Northern Pa
cifc, outside Of the joint interest Of the roads
in the Oregon Railroad & Navigation Co.,
are as widely separated as any two roads can
be. There is nothing in the way of new
construction, and, as matters stand at pres
ent, | think and hope it will be the policy
Of both companies to use their respective
roads now built, until the development
of the country increases the business suf-
1ciently to justify further extension.
There is plenty Of money in Europe ready
for investment, but there is also a very
marked disposition to scrutinize securities.
and there is no inclination to take doubtful
securities. This is due to Europe's unfortu-
nate Australian and African ventures There
is more activity abroad in mining matters
than in anything else. The only apparent
interest that is at all active is the DISPOSE
ton to investigate British Columbia

LAKE GETS THE BUSINESS.
Chicago Record of the First Weeks
Work

Those who were confident that the
all-rail lines would not be seriously
hampered in their business by the
opening of navigation can draw some
pointers from the first weeks record
at Chicago, which astonished all par
ties A total of 122, 243 tons were taken
East by the lake lines against 50,524
by al1-rail lines, which all goes to show
that the rail lines will have cause for
reflection before the lake season is
over 1t has been the intention Of the
trunk line managers to cut the diff
ferentials of the lake lines 21a cents
on a hundred pounds and thus stif1e
the water lines. but the trunk lines
have been warned that such action
would only stimulate lake competition
and cause renewed activity. The
Eastern railroad lines, seemingly, have
come to the conclusion that it is better

Decision of the Supreme Court Up
set All Plans,

The general passenger agents of
Western roads have asked Chairman
Caldwell, of the Western Passenger
association, to lay a scheme before
General Passenger Agent Goodman, of
the Southern Pacific, looking to a pos
sible settlement of the question Of
satisfactory rates to be given the Y.
P. S. G. E. convention in San Fran
cisco in July. The original agreement
Of one fare for the round trip was
knocked out by the recent decision of
the supreme court. 1t has been Sug-
gested that one way trip of $25 be
placed in effect, tickets being placed
on sale on three or four days select
ed by the officers of the Young Peo-
pies association. Similar rates to be
fixed within thirty days, from San
Francisco to the East. 1t is thought
some agreement such as this would
not violate the law and would prevent
manipulation by scalpers.

LABOR is INTERESTED.
Railway Pooling Bill VIII Receive
Its Support.

Railway Pooling Bill VIII Receive
Its support.
There is likely to be considerable in
terest taken in the railway pooling bill
by the railway labor organizations.
The railway employees seem to under
stand thoroughly the effect that a dis
astrous rate war would have upon
them, and they will probably pursue
the same policy that they did in regard
to the two-cent fare bills introduced
in several legislatures last winter.
Committees were appointed to appear
before the Legislative committees and
object to the bills on the ground that
they would tend to reduce wages. The
leaders seem to think that without a
pooling bill, and with no traffic agree
ments, the situation would be even
worse than, with two-cent fare bills,
so that much influence for the passage
of the bill will be brought by railway
employees.

The Plausible Lie.

Is We resent calumny, hypocrisy and
treachery because they harm us, not be-
cause they are untrue. Take the detrac-
tion and the mischief from the untruth,
and we are little offended by it. Turn
it into praise, and we may be pleased
with it. And yet it is not calumny and
treachery that do the largest sum Of
mischief in the world. They are contin-
ually crushed and are felt only in being
conquered. But it is the glistening and.
softly spoken lie, the amiable fallacy,
the patriotic lie OF the historian, the
provident lie of the politician, the zeal
Gus lie Of the partisan. the merciful lie
Of the friend and the careless lie of each
man to himself that cast that black
mystery over humanity through which
we thank any man who pierces. as we
would thank one who dug a we'll in q
desert. Happy that the thirst for truth.
remains with us, even when we have.

slept III my office. Then married, and
my wife owned nice house, and ! went
to it to live. 1t sat back from the street
about 50feet, and we decided that it
would be much nicer It we had my office
out on the street Ill the far corner Of the
lot. Only 90 feet away, you will OBJ
serve, but st!! II was enough. IN order
to see such callers as came during the
night ha! q night bell and q speaking

not want patient to escape under any
circumstances. ~ se
''Well, everything went nicely enough
for three years or SO, when one night a
ring came to my bell. 1t was then about

man and wanted to see me at once. I
told him to come around to Che house
and would meet him at the door and
take care OF him. Then | got up, and,
putting on my dressing gown and slip
