There comes to the Boise
Statesman some interesting rail
way information from source
that is always reliable. 1t is to
the effect that the Burlington
company is now contemplating
building down the Payette, eros
sing into Oregon at or near
Nyssa.
If this plan is followed, the
main line of the system will come
west from Wyoming, enter the
Lost river section and pass on
through Custer county to point
near Goat lake. The Sawtooth
will be tunneled and the road will
follow down the south fork OF
the Payette,
From Goat lake a line will run
down the Salmon, following
closely the route laid out for the
Midland. The line will probably
be connected up with the system
at Billings. Business between
coast points and the Montana
region will pass over this line.
The road will reach Boise by a
stub from Emmett. 1t is said that
the Idaho Northern is an indirect
factor in the plan; and that an
Iother feature of the general pro.
gram is the suppression of the
Midland project. Moreover, the
Statesman's informant states
it is his understanding that Mr.
Bates has been defeated in hi:
effort to interest the necessary
in the Midland enterprise.
While it would be altogethel
more feasible for the Burlington
to carry it's main line westward
from it's entrance into the stat
without entering the mountains
there are features of the matte
as outlined to the Statesman
which render it quite probabl
that the plan outlined is receiv
ing very serious consideration.

Copper. Southern Railway and Texas and
Pacific We're CON aradVeiy firm
There was no news of any financial bear
ing over the -proraCted holidays, and
great deal of the selling seemed TO be
induced by reason of Saturdays heavy re
ducJion in the surplus reserves of the as
ISOLATED hanks and through the cnnse-
quent fears that the money market might
develop distressing suringency this week
The London Stock Market was closed
over the Easter Monday holiday, SO that
no influence was exerted from that quar-
ter. Another disturbing influence IN the
market was the threatened strike on The
Central Railroad of New jersey, which, it
was feared. would lead 10 Iaboc troubles
in other directions
The dealings after the opening continued
in tremendous volume. and the market de-
veIoped a good deal OF irresulariJy- Sharp
recoveries in some directions took pace
