Interpretation, has been the recent rise
of Erie securities.
In the first place, control Of the Erie
could be acquired most easily, none OF
the stocks selling for high prices, and
Erie, as the second point in the argu-
ment, had the most to gain from a
transcontinental alliance of connecting
lines Such traffic as might be billed
elther to the St Paul or the two lines.
which reach The Pacific coast could
easily be gained in great part at any
rate for the Erie. while to the Erie, in
like manner, the ST. Paul. the Great
Northern or the Northern Pacific could
shift the bulk Of the freight which they
might gather along their lines for ship
menc east OF Chicago, more particularly
the larger proportion Of what might be
intended for the seaboard and the port
OF New York The Erie would have a
further advantage in its connection at
Buffalo with the. Great Northern's
steamship lines. while the St Paul. in
giving the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific outlet TO Chicago from Mime
apjoIis and St. Paul on especially ia
vOrable terms, might we'll profit largely
from the additional traffic Of the north
west which could be shifted TO its lines
Another end served would be the regu-
lation of competition between the
granger road and the two Pacific lines
in districts where all three or two of
the three seek business. and the con-
SeQuent guaranty Of stable rates on a
level permitting a fair return on the
cost of transportation.
Now the terms of the alliance will be
disclosed. how far the settlement has
proceeded is not yet evident Evidence
OF the relation Of the sort may be given
shortly by such a. step as the election OF
J. J. Hill to the St. Paul board runaors
of which are already in circulation.
Signs confirmatoTy are also available in
the appointment Of ]. J. Hill, president
of the Great Northern. and Norton B.
Ream, of the Baltimore & Ohio, to the
Erie board. together with the election
Of another member, Robert Bacon. from
the banking firm by whom the last re-
organization of the Erie was carried
through It is plain that stock would
not have been bought had there not
been some plSn under consideration by
which the Erie could be made to pay.
And the prospects Of that property seem
to be gilded less by the promise OF
carrying hereafter the tonnage of the
Pennsylvania Coal company tonnage
which it has had hithertO-than by the
outlook for an alliance such as the one
now said to be in view.

MOVE 1T OUT.
State House Heating Plant VIII
Probably Be Removed

Representatives of the state govern
ment have been making some investf-
cations concerning the price and loca-
ton of ground facing the state house
square which would be adapted to the
construction of a plant for heating and
lighting the state house.
This new plan will be pushed by the
state officials and the legislature will be
asked, IN all probability, as the situa-
ton now indicates, to take some action
towards moving the boilers from the
basement of the capitol.
The first state official to make rec
concentrations of this character was
George E. Cole. state auditor. However,
all Of the other officers are in favor of
the proposition, though none referred
to it in their reports as did the auditor.
Governor Stanley has long been in IA
vor OF the plan. and is now considering
the adyiSa bility of making a recOnnen-
dation on the subject in his MESA ge
In conference with the auditor the
governor gave approval to the sugges-
ton. and stated, in substance, that he
would endorse the proposition in his
message.
Were the state house not half as large
as it is. the rooms above the boilers
would not be heated to suffocation-
However. it is necessary to keep the
boilers steaming at a high pressure in
order to supply the state house offices
on the upper floors with heat This
keeps the boiler rooms at a very high
temperature and the heat, following it's
natural tendencies. rises, works through
the floors. and makes the offices imme-
diately over the boiler rooms almost I'M
inhabitabIe-
Books in cases have become so dry
due to this excessive heat, that the COW
vers have cracked when opened Fur
niture has become so dry that the wood
has opened like the cracks on a barn
door exposed to the rays of the summer
sun.
The plan to get the steam heat and
light power apparatus out of the build
ing has the endorsement of the en-
ployes, the officials and the officers of
the board of health
There is another evil which deserves
attention also, and that is in connection
with the smoke and SCOT from the build
ing. The state records are smeared with
SCOT, which floats in through the open
windows 1t is necessary, in order to
prevent the families of the employees
from realizing Immediately upon life in
surance policies, to have the windows
open to get a breath OF fresh air. But
this is a small matter, com pared with
the damage which is being done to the
exterior walls of the capitol
No one disputes the necessity for some
decisive action in this matter and the
chances are that the separate plant will
be esta blished.
