Nevada. May 24.-Mr Lawler. Of the
firm OF LAWYER q Reed, New York, who
have the contract for building the Du'
luth & New Orleans railroad between
this city and Des Nloincs, is in Nevada
looking over the situation. He went over
the line yesterday aud inspected the
force at work on the grade south of
Cambridge, under j. NJ. Hawthorn, of
this city, who has been let five miles of
the road. These five miles are causing
considerable comment. The enemies of
the enterprise claim that this is nothing
but a supply station and not part of the
road, but those who have examined the
work pronounce the story as "bosh," as
the grade is plainly established for all
most two5miles south of Cambridge. 1t
is supposed that the reason for letting
five miles, instead of working on the
entire line at once. Is that the officials
of the road made an agreement last
winter with the Dies Moines. Iowa Falls
over the some route, that they would
leave the field clear to them if work was
not commenced by May 1. In this way
the agreement was not violated, az the
grade is started. Mr.. Lawler states

had been brought before the authorities
at Cairo, ILL.,. on the same charges of
using the mails for the purpose of fraud

bond which he failed to return. The
was brought here F. L. Giles, of

they so testified before the grand jury.
They will also testify when the case
comes up for hearing before jury.

to push vigorously the case against the
man. Pickett. as before, stoutly de-
clares his innocence.

Hawarden. May 2i.-The people OF
Hawarden still think that the North
west tern will be extended from Kings
ley tothis place. A committee from
this place recently called upon Marvin
Hughitt. president of the company, in
Chicago. and it is said this committee
brought back a few days ago a favor
able report. but there is a string to it.
As near as can be ascertained the sit.
.uation is just this: Mr.. Hughitt said il
the citizens of Hawarden would secure
free TO his company the right of way
the road would be extended as stated.
This, 1t is estimated. will cost some
$4,000. and it now falls upon Hawarden
to raise this much money, and 1t will be
a difficult proposition to4face.
When the Kingsley branch was first
built from correctionviile the road was
sgra ded four miles west of Kingsley in
the direction of Hinton Afterwards
the line was extended TO Neville. 1t is
noticeable fact that when the survey
sors began work at Kingsley they start
ed at the end of this graded portion
tof town, and went right in the 5di-
reetion of Merrill. II is generally ac-
fcepted here that the surveyors are
