NEW IOWA RAILROAD.
Chicago and Northwestern to Extend
Capital Stock to 100000.

Des Afoines, March 29.-A new rail-
way project was formally launched
yesterday morning by the filing of ar
ticles of incorporation by the South
ern Iowa railway. The new line is
said to be a Chicago and Northwestern
movement, and will extend from that
company's road into Mahaska and
Monroe counties for the purpose OF
tapping the valuable coal fields in that
vicinity.
The incorporators named in the ar.
ticles are Daniel d. Barhric1l and Hen
Try Y. Ferguson, and the headquarters
of the new road will be at Cedar Rap
ids. The capital stock is placed at
$4OO, 900.
This move has been in contempla-
tion for some time, but the filing OF
the articles of incorporation is the
first tangible evidence that the general
public has received that the Southern
Iowa railway promoters really meant
business.
Fifty-six miles will be constructed
at once and the line is expected to
make very material changes in the coal
mining industry which is now carried
on in that section.

BOY Shot by Accident.

Dows, March 29.-While out hunt
ing with two other boys, Clyde Suit
of this place was severely shot in the
arm by his gun going off unawares.
1t seems that there was shell that
he could not extract from the gun and
he put the gun in the buggy with the
shell in. When about three miles from
home he went to take the gun out,
taking hold of it near the muzzle. In
some way it was discharged, ripping 9
all the flesh off from his arm below
the elbow. 1t was by good fortune
that the charge passed by his side and
not into his body.

ue, at which an admission fee is charg-

tiOnS' inyolved

discussion in his presence of the ques-
tons involved.
"A council meeting was then called
at the governors Office, and the treas
urer was again urged to give the rea-
son of his proposed plan and to discuss
the theory and effect thereof, but he
declined so to do.
"A motion to amend by striking out
the method of assessment, with reas-
ons for the motion, was then filed and
the treasurer was furnished copy OF
the same. This he took, and he started
to leave the council without even ask
ing for an adjournment, saying ne
would discuss the matter the next day.
This would leave the council
without a quorum, the auditor being
at his hotel. Instantly motion was
made to meet at the rooms of Auditor
Merriam at the Savery house, which
was passed while the treasurer was
LEAVING the room, he voting mo- as he
passed out the door.
Ihereupon the council met at Au-
ditor Merriam's rooms in the Savery
house. The entire list of railroads and
valuations and assessments practically
agreed upon.
".rhe next day the council meeting
opened in the governors office, with
all members present. The treasurer
again arose to leave the council. He
was urged to remain and assured that
the motion to reconsider would be car
ried unanimously, but he declined
The motion was then put and unani-
mously carried. The entire roads were
again gone over in detail.,,'
The. governor and the secretary of
state also replied to Mr.. Herriott's ar
gument and gave figures showing in
congruities and inequalities in the
treasurer's plan. They call attention
to the fact that the percentage OF tax
es paid by the. railway companies had
materially increased, while that Of
live stock and real estate had been de-
creased.
Concluding, the statement says:
The treasurer charges that the
council as now constituted is manifest
ing favoritism in behalf of the North
western railway. Since members of
the present council have served there
on with the treasurer of state, the
assessment of the Northwestern rail-
way has been increased $356,0OO, while
the aggregate assessment of the Rock
Island road, on which the treasurer re-
sides, has been decreased over S4OO, 900.
Let the facts speak for themselves

ent session. 1t is on the house calen-
dar about fifty bills down, and at the
present rate will not be reached be-
fore the appointment of the sitting
committee, which is expected within
the next two days. 1t begins to look
as tho the measure will be allowed tc
quietly die.

sidered !; number of matters of minor
Importance. The senate bill creating
a state board of medical examiner was
passed. The senate bill by Titus, pro
viding that voting on constitutional
amendments and other public ques;
