Sensational Railroad Deal.

A report of a somewhat sensational
nature comes from New York to the
effect that the Illinois Central is like
ly to get control of the Minneapolis &
St. Louis railroad. To such posi-
bility attaches considerable local in
terest, not only from the fact that it
might bring the Central through this
section of the country eventually, but
that it would give that company the
control of the facilities of both the
Rock Island and the B., c. r. & n.
for reaching St. Paul and Minneapo-
lis, as well as the terminals of both
roads in those cities. According to a
Chicago paper, Chicago, Rock Island
& Pacific railway interests are said to
have become alarmed over this new
extension scheme of the Illinois Cen
trail. The Rock Island formerly con-
trolled parts of the Minneapolis & st.
Louis system through ownership of
mortgage bonds. These bonds were
taken up by the payment of more
than $4,000 600 when the road was
reorganized in 1894. Since that time
there have been many reports that
the Rock Island was scheming to get
control of the property again"

1t appears that one of the provisions
of the Paris treaty made it obligatory
upon the part of the United States to
return to Spain all the Spanish prisoners
in the Philippines without waiting for
its ratification. A count shows there are
about 81, 900 such prisoners to be sent
home. This government is asking for
proposals from shipping companies to
remove them, and in thus acting the
government is keeping its pledge. But
isn't it rather surprising there should be
over three score thousand Spanish pris-
oners to transport? Spain should feel
more than Inundated for the world to
learn that the handful of American SOL
diers at Manila had put her 81, 900 "brave"
fighters to fight.
