ry Muntzer asking the court to declare
John Sexton and Terence Cassidy bank-
rupts. The latter onducts the Silver

tition in voluntary bankruptcy.
The petitioners claim hat Sexton and
Cassidy are indebted to them as follows

November 16, 1895, after having com
mitted'' an act of bankruptcy, Sexton &
Cassidy, knowing the co~-partnership to
be insolvent gave a chattel mortgage on
all of the assets of co-partnershlp
consisting Of furniture, cooking utensils

pose of preferring the mortgage.

President J. J. Hills visit to Butte has
been postponed a few days. While on
the trip west the porter of his car be-
came i'll. and at his own request was sent
back to st. Paul. On arriving there it
was found that the p%orter's ailment had
developed into a case of smallpox. The
/ intelligence was conveyed bach to the
railroad president, and he and his party
lost no time in getting v~accinated, al
though they had been exposed to the
! disease before vaccination. This circum-
stance may delay Mr.. Hills trip to
Butte.
A Greenwood. B. c., special to the
Spokesman-Review says:
The Canadian Pacific Railway COM
pany has made arrangements with the
Great Northern whereby the Canadian
Pacific may build a branch line from
Midway to Republic.
The Spokesman-Review publishes an
interview with a prominent business
man who says There is evidence that
the Great Northern and the Canadian
Pacific people have come to a full under
standing regarding the traffic Of the
kootenay country. They are both in
southern British Columbia. and it is
quite in the range of possibility that Mr..

Chief Engineer Kennedy has spent the
last two days in consultation with Engi-
neer Bethel, who is now in charge of the
engineering plans of the O. r. & Ms line
from Riparia to lewiston, says the Lew
iston Tribune. These consultations hav
been for the purpose of completing the
final details of the construction which
is now partially in progress. Mr.. Ken
nedy is greatly overworked, as President
Mohler is anxious to have the line to
Lewiston completed, and to ~thereupon
begin the Camas Prairie extension. 1t is
a fact that the latter extension is to be
made along the present surveys as soon
as the intervening work is completed,
and while the company will not be able
to take out this years crop. except such
as steamboats, can bring down the Clear
water to Lewiston. it definitely promises
to handle next years. <:t ,.s4 --
Six rock camps are working between
Lewiston and Riparia. The Norma on
Sunday unloaded a car Of powder and
tools along the river and also a car Of
lumber for blacksmith shops. AS. rapidly
as possible he company is getting the
rock work, of which there is a great deal,
out of the way and accommodating supplies
at convenient points, so that as soon as
the weather seems to be settled the grad

The interstate commission
is about to ~inaugurate a pulley with
the roads of the United States more
| strict than it has heretofore applied.
Some weeks ago the commission sum
moned the presidents of all eastern
lines to a conference at Washington on
the subject of rate tariffs. Since that
| time the roads of the middle west have
also been warned against r~ate-cuttine,
and now the announcement is made
that the president of each and every
road in the United States is to be in
terviewed, and notified that the laws
represented by the commission must be
maintained and will be most rigidiy
enforced. The interstate
commission is doing all in it's power
toward a better maintenance of rates,
and has thus far been very successful.
Especially is this so for 1899. The east
ern papers are loud in their praise of the
good work, and favorably upon
the rate situation. ind the new plan
the commission will require all railroad
companies to report any cases of rate
cutting that come under their notice, and
the offending line is to be severely dealt
with.
Col. D. c. Dodge, vice president and
general manager of the Rio Grande
Western, came in on a special train yes
terday noon, says the Salt Lake Herald.
This is the first official visit for two
months and his stay will therefore extend
over several days. There are many
things of Importance to arrange in addi-
ton to the regular inspection of shops,
track and equipment. The general man
ager is here to give orders for the com
mencement of work on the Provo canyon
line. Bids for the grading of the frst
section of the line We're opened by Chief
Engineer Yard yesterday and later he
and the general manager went over the
figures together. Who will receive the
award for the work is not yet made pub

In the suit of Burdett OConnor against
the Boston & Montana the defendant has
filed an answer. In the document the
company denies that O'Connor is a
stakeholder in the corporation or that
so shares stood in his name at the time
the suit was brought; denies that the
New York compan has control OF the
properties, but alleges that a reconvey-
ance was made on the 13d of February.
All the allegations of conspiracy made by
are denied.
The answer further a that the
plaintiff should not be permitted to main
tain his suit, for the reason that on June
4, 1898, John MacGinnis and James For
roster brought an action against the COM
pany with the same object IN view and
their suit was pending at the time the
O'Connor suit was filed; that at the time
Forester and MacGinnis sued the COM
pany, Forester had a certificate for 100
shares of stock in his NAME, but in order
to harass and annoy the defendant with
a multiplicity of suits and thus wan
tOnly subject it to costs, he assigned so
shares to O'Connor; that in no other way
did O'Connor become a stakeholder.
