Special to The Journal.
Sioux Falls, S. D., May 11.-An important
improvement in its train service has been de-
eided upon by the Milwaukee road-one which
will mean a great deal to Sioux Falls as dis
tributing point. The intention of the Milwau-
kee is to run a mixed passenger and freight
train between Sioux Falls and Bristol without
transfer or change. This will enable jobber
in Sioux Falls to load merchandise from eigh-
teen to twenty hours later than heretofore and
have 1t reach its destination at any point
along the line as soon as heretofore 1t will
give connections with Madison, Lake Pres
ton, Bristol and intervening points, through
train from La Crosse to Sioux Falls without
any change at Egan is another improvement
proposed. The road also proposes very soon
to put on a sleeping car service between this
city and Chicago via Sioux City.

New York. May 1.-THE Tribune says:
How the Union Pacific is going TO De az
fecfed nv the contest now in progress IOr
control of the Northern Paclne, IS ques
tion which is being discussed with great
interest in Wall street. II MT. MARI
man and his associates obtain control VI
the Northern Pacific the answer 10 the
t.u+Ior eue {s comnarativeIy simple By
that operation the Union Pacific, through
its control of the Northern Pacific, would
come into possession of the latter's one
half interest in the Burlington system ana
its position would be materially strength
ened If, however, 1t should develop, as
the street seems inclined to think Will De
the case. that Mr.. Morgan and Mr.. HllI
have obtained clear majority OF the
Northern Pacific stock, situation Will
he created which, in the present temper
of the opposing forces, is thought by wall
street to be one of much gravity. For
the Burlington control gives the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific, both
paralleling the Union Pacific on the nortn'
an outlet of their own from Minneapolis
and st. Paul to Chicago, and gives the
Northern, Pacific also a direct outlet from
the Pacific coast to Kansas City, Omaha
and other points in Union Pacific terri
torv. The St Paul and Northwestern
roads also find their interests menaced
by the Burlington deal, and these COM
panies, which are in harmony with the
Union Pacific, are said to be likely TO
make common cause with the latter in
case it is excluded from participation in
control OF the Burlington. 1t remains to
be seen whether or not the present con-
test will be allowed to develop into
general fight all along the line-a struggle
which, it is felt by careful observers,
would be disastrous in the extreme. Such
a conflict might also spread to the east
ern territory. 1t is not believed, how
ever, among the best posted men in the
financial district. that the Union Pacific
will be shut out from participation in
some form and to some degree In the
Burlington deal, whatever be the outcome
of the battle for actual control Of the
Northern Pacific Russell Sage said last
night:
81 think Union Pacific will not be hurt,
and I think its stock will be more valu-
able later on than it is now"

b., c. r.. & n. PLANS
How Is the Road to Get Into Mime
apoIIs Is the Question.

Local railway officials are exhibiting
great interest in the plans of the Bur-
iington, Cedar Rapids & Northern as to
its entrance into this city and st. Paul.
Information from Faribault shows that
the new line will poin with the Milwau
kee about seven miles north Of that city
and that the Milwaukee tracks will be
used from there to Rosemount. The route
from Rosemount north is mystery. Some
contend that the Cedar Rapids will run
its trains to Mendoza, dividing its trains
there and running sections into both Min
neapolis and st. Paul, but it seems that
the line is building from Newport south
toward Inver Grove and the generally ac-
cepted conclusion is that the entrance is
to be in that neighborhood, cross line
connecting with the Milwaukee at some
distance south of Mendoza. Fifty or sixty
carloads of ties have already been shipped
into Newport and a large force of men is
employed in grading and track-laying on
the line out Of there.

New York, May Thames ]. Hill and
Charles H Tweed have retired from the
board of directors OF the Baltimore & Ohio
railroad and their successors are James Nc
Crea and Samuel Rea of the Pennsylvania
railroad system. This change was not unex-
pected, as an authoritative announcement was
made several weeks ago that Mr.. Hill had
sold all of his stock in the Baltimore & Ohio
in order to strengthen his hold on the Erie.
The Pennsylvania now has the practical con-
troll OF the Baltimore & Ohio and it is not
unlikely that a Pennsylvania man will be
elected to the presidency before long. Presi-

Kenneth Clark, president of the Merchants
National bank, OF ST. Paul. IS quoted as say
ing that SS.000.000 had been provided for the
use of the Chicago Great Western railway in
building the proposed extension to Omaha,
and as 1t is learned from positive authority
that the company is negotiating for terminals
in Omaha, there is good reason to suppose
that work upon the Omaha line will not be
long delayed. The Omaha terminals will
probably be located in the district known as
East Omaha and the Omaha company's bridge
across the Missouri river will be used.

Ore Roads Case.

Senator Moses E. Clapp has been engaged to
assist the state railway and warehouse COM
mission in the natter of the rehearing os the
iron ore rate case. The commission is pro-
ceeding in this matter with great caution
and will take no step unadvisedly. 1t is
known, however, that there is more or less
dssension upon the commission itself upon
some Of the vital points discussed and it
is by no means certain that the result will
be one satisfactory TO the entire commits
sion. The principle involved in the maneu-
verings now in progress is whether or not
the commission has entire power in the mat
ter Of iron ore rates. The roads claim not.
