LAYING RAILS.
MankatO & New Ulm Road
Nearing Completion.
The New Northwestern Bridge and Much
Grading Will Employ Many Men in
$1,000 -- MankatO. ,.... -

The work of laying steel rails on the
Mankato & New Ulm railroad began
yesterday on the New Ulm end. and
will proceed at the rate of half mile a
day on the start, and after a few days a
mile day of the track will be laid.
Contractor Streeter is doing the work
and will soon have over hundred men
engaged in driving spikes and doing the
other work of laying the steel.
The Chicago & Northwestern road
has decided to construct new bridge
across the Blue Earth river. 1t will be
placed close below the present new
Omaha bridge, and the piers will touch
each other. The bridge will be put in
during the winter.
Another important piece of work
that will necessltate the employment of
a large force of men in the city during
the winter will be the grading and rip
rapping for another track from the
Omaha yards to the new Northwestern
bridge, and beyond to the new grade
already made, where the Mankato &
New Ulm leaves the Omaha track. The
Northwestern track through West Man
kato will be close to the Omaha track.
on the west side of it, and the grading
will be fifteen feet on each side from
the center of the rails. A great deal of
riprapping will be done along the river
bank, and some of the present Omaha
riprapping will be covered oyer.
The bids for doing the grading have
not yet been solicited, but it is thought
likely that Mr. Streeter will get the
contract, as he has his tools and i'm
plements on the ground. AS many men
will be employed on this work as were
employed on the grading of the new
Omaha track through the city, and
they will help to keep business lively
for our merchants.

INCENDIARY FIRE.
Mrs. J. 7. Williams Barn Burns at an
ass, (, Early Hour.

The barn on the rear of Mrs. j. T.
Williams premises, on South Broad
street, was discovered to be on fire at
$50 o'clock this morning. An alarm
was telephoned to the city hall and the
fire department. summoned from box 26
When first seen, the barn was en-
shrouded in flames and there was no
hope of saving it, 1t was unoccupied
except for the storage of stoves and a
few household goods. &>.
1t is believed that the building was
purposely set on fire, as there seems to
have been no other way for the fire to
have started. The heat was so great
that the rear end of the residence was
slightly damaged, but the fire depart
ment was able to check the spread of
the flames. =
The barn was valued at $3.50 and was
insured for $3.50. The damage to the
residence will not exceed 800, covered
by insurance, and the household goods
destroyed were also insured.
Miss Augusta Schwitzer, sister of
Mrs. Herman Haas, saw two men talk.
ing in front of Mr. Haas house few
minutes before the fire was discovered.
They remained there until the neighbors
discovered the fire and began to come
out, and then they walked away toward
fourth street, without displaying any
interest in the fire, The action of these
men seem peculiar. Miss Schwitzer did
not recognize them.

TO PAY CONTRACTORS.
The City Recorder Will Issue Certificates
of Indebtedness Bearing Interest.

Mayor Currier and Aids: Weed and
Meyer, of the ways and means commit
tee, held meeting and talked over the
condition of the city finances. 1t was
decided to. pay the persons who are on
the pay rolls, and the salaries to the
police and firemen and perhaps others.
In this way the money now in the road
and current funds will be paid out
where tits most needed, and the bal
ance of the people having bills can wait.
The Mankato Gas and Electric Light
Co. has offered no objection to waiting
until Oct. Goth for it's September pay,
by which time it is thought that some
money will be paid in on liquor licenses.
The mayor and city recorder have
come to the conclusion that the latter
has authority to issue certificates of in
debtedness to the amount of $500 or
$500, with which to pay the contractors
who have done street and culvert work.
1t has not been decided what rate of in
terest to have these draw, but it will
probably be six or seven per cent. as it
is desired that they shall be sufficiently
desirable that the banks will not shave
them when they are presented for pay
ment there. These will be paid out of
the first money in the road fund ap-
plicable to the purpose. 3 &

GEN. WOOD AGAIN AT SANTIAGO
stamp Out the Yellow Fever Payments Suspended.

Santiago de Cuba, July 11.-Gen. Leonard Wood, the military governor, returned yesterday morning from the United States. and began vigorous acton 10 stamp out the yellow fever. He finds the situation more serious than he had anticipated.
 To-day headquarters will move to Songo, 20 miles north of here, a point i.o0J feet above sea level. as we'll as all the administrative departments. ex- cept the sanitary and few immune clerks on the headquarters and com rnissary staffs.
 The paymaster has been ordered to suspend all payments to the Cuban troops until the fever has been stamped out, the special object of the order being to prevent the soldiers from drinking during the epidemic.
 Many predict that there will be trouble when the United States troops are entirely removed from the city, us there are many hundred of des- titute Cuban soldiers already here. They are expecting payment, and have been. though for the best reason, put of for a month.

PREFERS OLD VOLUNTEERS.
Hut Under the Law Men Must he En. listed Without Discrimination
 as They Apply.

Washington, July 11.-Secretary AL ger IS very anxious to have the new regiments recruited as far as possible from men who served as volunteers during the Spanish war. He has re- ceived information from a number of officers, especially those who were on duty mastering out the volunteers iu different states, that if there was an opportunity afforded probably 90 per cent. of the new regiments would be composed of these men. Of course under the regulations the recruiting officers can not discriminate between the men who have been in the volun- teer service and those who have not, and men will be enlisted as they apply without regard to their pre vious sery- ice records.
