A Number of the Directors Called
Upon President Hill and Received
Some Information About the Cost
of Railroad Building and Con-
struction "A Conference Held
With Representatives Along Line.
The directors of the new north and
eouth railroad line from Duluth to Man
kato adjourned last night without action
towards active construction work. En-
gineers and financiers were in conference
with the officers and directors all day yes
terdsy, but, lacking funds, the directors
decided to wait until another meeting be-
fore ordering the commencement of work
on the road bed and grades. As yet the
new railway is principally on paper.
An executive committee has been nam
ed consisting of President A. II. Reed,
Vice Presidents W. B. Mitchell, of st.
Cloud and Patterson, of Mankato. A
resolution was introduced at the meeting
yesterday to the effect that the directors
authorize survey from St ClCud to Man
kato. The resolution was amended to al
low survey from Mankato to the mead
of the lakes, and passed. The executive
committee was given authority to select
an engineer and begin the work at their
pleasure as soon as funds are In sight.
An auditing board was elected consisting
of Directors c. l.. Atwood, St. Cloud;
John Koch, St Paul, and H. Waosworth,
Glencoe.
President Reed stated last night that
the cost of the preliminary survey is es-
timated at s13 a mile. The location OF
the road will cost $50 a mile. The st.
Cloud-Mankato line will be approximately
100 miles long.
Several of the directors and ohlcers
of the road" said Mr.. Reed, called upon
President James j. Hill, of the Great
Northern and asked for Information con-
corning the cost of railroad construction.
Mr.. Hill was familiar with the route over
which we propose to go, and gave US IN
stances from the construction or his own
lines to show the comparative expense.
He told us to a matter of cents the
cost of many separate miles in the Great
Northern system, and his judgment was
that the expenditures for construction,
from the survey to the time we get trains
In operation, will be $4,000 a mile. This
will give basis for an estimate OF mil
lion and a quarter for the Mankato-St.
Cloud division"
An open meeting was held yesterday
afternoon at the Merchants, at which
representatives of the different towns
along the proposed route conferred with
the directors. The towns and villages
represented in the session were St Au-
gusta, Fairhaven, Stearns county; south
Haven, Annandale, French Lake and go
kato, Wright county; Silver Lake and
Winstead, Mcleod county; New Auburn
Winthrop GAYLORD and New Sweden, SID
ley county.
No specific promises were made to the
directors. but the representatives of the
different towns each wanted railroad,
and indicated in a general way that they
would do all in their power to help the
project. President Reed urged that the
representatives go home and atteSs their
good intentions by floating the stock or
the new company.
The stock books have been opened LOT
subscriptions, and the directors nope TO
see the first division In operation before
next winter.

WILL BRING BUSINESS.
Plans Which MIR. Hill Is Maturing
for the Near Future.

Local railroad men are anticipating a
movement on the part of the Great
Northern during the spring or early sum-
her towards increased facilities for the
transportation of products from the Cen>
trail and Southern states to the Pacific
coast for export shipment and increased
attention to the Oriental export trade
from Seattle, Tacoma and coast points.
1t is confidently predicted by Great
Northern officials that the plans which
Mr.. Hill has been maturing for the ad-
vancement of Oriental trade and COM
merce will result in the upbuilding of
coast cities and the extension of Great
Northern traffic. The details of the
work which the Great Northern president
has planned are not given out Yet, in
connection with his new steamship line,
1t Is understood that arrangements will
be made to give an express route for
shipments across the continent to ana
from the Pacific docks. The Great North
ern is making extensive preparations to
thoroughly cover the shipping business
from Seattle and Tacoma. and much
property lying In such position to mako
1t valuable has already been secured.
