RAILROAD RUMBLINGs.

On account of the tie-up of the Rookie
it is said, TO a desire on the part of the
owner to advance ore rates from that
port, there is a shortage of tonnage for
grain and millions of bushels are going
to the Atlantic seaboard through the
Chicago gateway.
The Milwaukee's new line from Yank-
ton to the Platte river is progressing
rapidly. The sites for nineteen grain
elevators along the line have already
been selected.
The Burlington, Cedar Rapids &; North
erns extension from Albert Lea to Far
ibault, bids for the construction of
place the tracks of that system within
fifty miles of this city. The new line
will be forty-eight miles long, and will
be completed this fall.
The revised schedule of rates prepared
by the state railway and warehouse COM
mission will be submitted to the rail-
roads of the state at the latter end of
this week.
President George H. Maxwell, of the
National Irrigation society, was In the
city yesterday on his way to the West.
He leaves this morning, and will de-

Idaho towns on the subject of irrigation.
f. l. Whitney, general passenger agent

He will return the latter end of the

REAFF()RD WILL LEAVE
HEAD OF MILWAUKEE.s PASsEE-
GER DEPARTMENT TO QUIT
RAILROADING
TO BECOME A STOCK BROKER
The CO,npanE's Failure to Advance
Him Has Been a Sur
prise to His
Friends.

There is probably more truth in the
rumors from Chicago concerning the
resignation of George H Heafford than
officials of the Milwaukee road will ad-
NIT. Mr.. Heafford has been the practical
head Of the passenger department of that
system for eighteen years ard to his
skill and popularity. in great measure.
the success of the company In the pas
senger business is unquestiorably at
tributable. While, it has net been an
nounced, 1t is generally believed that NJ.
l1eafford leaves the railroad business TO
engage in stock brokerage on the Chi
cago market.
Many Of Mr.. Heanford's friends in and
out of the railroad business were greatly
surprised that he was not advanced to
higher position at the time of the re-
cent changes in the executive officers of
the Milwaukee road. and there were Two
reasons given at the time why he was
not advanced One was that officials
above him would not consent to his re-
moVal from the passenger department,
believing they would be unable to re-
place MIN, and the other that at that
time Mr.. Heafford already had the mat
teI III MIND or leaving the railroad bust
ness and was undecided as to What course
ne would pursue.
Ihere is no general passenger agent
more widely or more favorably known
East or West than George H Heafford,
and the loss of his services is bound to
be felt. He has accomplished more than
the work Of q lifetime in the service of
the Milwaukee, entering its employ from
the position of assistant general pas
senger agent of the Missouri Pacific rail-
read. In 1888, when the general offices
Of the Milwaukee were removed from
Milwaukee to Chicago, he was promoted
from the office of assistant general pas
senger agent to the head of the depart
ment and has had full charge since that
time. Mi Heafford retires at the end Of
October, and the appointment Of F. A
Miller, the assistant general passenger
agent of the company at Chicago, to sue
ceed him would not cause surprise.
