large number of rural routes will be
established in the northwest Oct. / and

The Hall Story Canard.
Superintendent Machen of the rural
free delivery service said TODAY that so
far as he knows there is no truth in the
report that H. P. Hall is to be appointed
inspector in the rural free delivery sery-
ice from Minnesota.
postmaster General Smith makes those
appointments" said Mr.. Machen TO-DAY.
and up to the time he left here for his
vacation he had not mentioned BaIps
name in connection with the place. The
names of several other Minnesotans have
been discussed, but I canot give them.
The postmaster general will make the ap-
pointment when he returns, which will
be in about three weeks"

Pittsburg, Aug. 17.-Attention in the
steel strike Is directed to the west again
to-day. Every possible effort of the strik
ers is centered to win Milwaukee and
Chicago over from their adverse standing
on the strike. Milwaukee is to vote on
the question to-day and the labor lead
ers are confident that final action will
be favorable to- them. After Milwaukee
acts, move will be made to get the Chi
cago men to hold another meeting and
reconsider their two refusals to come out.
Coupled with the new western pIan

the strikers to break into the solid COM

London, Aug. 1.-THE proroguing OF
parliament to-day is the occasion Of much
doleful comment. The statist contrasts
the effects of the enormous sums bor-
rowed by the United States In the civil
war and by France in 1870 with the fall
In consuls resulting from the methods Of
Sir Michael Hicks Beach and attributes
1t to the governments financing. 1t says
there is a mistaken belief abroad that
the resources of the country have been
Immensely exaggerated and that Great
Britain is not so rich as reputed, and
claims that the belief in the almost mex
haustible resources of Great Britain has
been, heretofore, one Of the great guaran-
tees of peace.

of Pierre, have about brought their nego-
tiations to a successful issue. The Com
mercial West in to-day's issue, says:
The Commercial West is pleased to make
an important railroad announcement this
week to the effect that negotiations for the
building of a railroad to connect Minneapolis
and St. Paul with the Black Hills are far
advanced.
The road will be built from Aberdeen, S. D.,
to Rapid City in the Black Hills, crossing
the Missouri river at Pierre. if the present
negotiations reach favorable conclusion
The road will be 295 miles long, and it
will probably be known the Twin City
Pierre & Black Hills road The original in
corporation Of few years back was under
the name of the Duluth, Pierre & Black Hills
But the building of this line is only a part
of further plan to build a short line into
Denver, and by the route to create short
line to the gulf and to California and to
coast points, by using the Union Pacific.
It is 1, ,11O miles from Chicago to Deadwood.
but it is only 595 miles from St. Paul and
Minneapolis to Deadwood by the proposed
line. The jobbers and manufacturers of the
twin cities are especially desirous of having
direct rail communication with the Black
Hills, because, Notwithstanding that mileage
is greatly in their favor, under existing rail
connections, the rich trade of the Black Hills
country goes to Chicago, st. Louis ana
Omaha.
If the road is built to Rapid City, it will
be extended to Orrn Junction, Wyo. where it
will connect with the Union Pacific, Denver
& Gulf road and thus establish direct line
to Denver on short mileage. At Newcastle
Wyo, where the Burlington would cross,
there is ample coal supply, and this would be
utilized.
1t will cost $4,000 mile to build and equip
the road, and construct the bridge at Pierre
to cost 5000 000-and bonds to cover this
amount are now under consideration in New
York. The negotiations at this end are in
charge of l.. c. Twombly, who has made a
thorough study of the proposition.
The road will be constructed as an inde-
pendent line but it will naturally become a
part of one of the northwest systems. Under
its operation as an independent line it would
hold traffic relations with the Great Northern
and the ST Paul road at Aberdeen, and a
through passenger service with the Black
Hills would be established by these lines
These latest developments Of the negotia-
tions that are in progress are of interest at
this time because Of the bearing that such a
line would have on railroad connections in
the west.
Build to Pierre This Year.
are SO far advanced that the funds for the
enterprise will be at the disposal of the
| officers of the new line within a very
short time. All that remains to be done
| is the completion of a few details which it
| is thought will be accomplished within
two weeks. 1t is the intention of the pro-
moters of the new road to have the line
constructed to Pierre before the end of
the year and into Rapid City late next
year.

terially change the railroad situation in
the Black Hills country. 1t means great
things for South st. Paul as stock mar
ket and for the merchandise iobbing in
terests of the twin cities.
At present big factor in the earnings
of the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Wall
ley road, which is a part of the North
Western system, is the immense cattle
traffic from the Hills country to Chi
cago. The new road win deprive the F. E.
& M. V. system of much of this business
and make the entire stock country west
of the Missouri and along the new line
tributary to South St. Paul. The land
west of the Missouri is not adapted to
agriculture but is good grazing area and
there is no question but that an immense
business in stock will be built up by the
new line.
Former Trade to BE Regained.
The Hills country buys it's supplies
mostly from Chicago, Omaha, Sioux City
and Denver In early days before the ad-
vent of the railroad into the Hills. the
twin cities sold large amount Of mer-
chandise in that market. In the seventies
this was sent over the Northern Pacific
to Bismarck and from there overland. In
the early eighties the North Western
system pushed through to Pierre and over
land transportation routes were changed
from Bismarck to that point. Minneapolis
trade with the Hills still held good. AT
this time Chicago was also shipping

teams. Owing to the fact that the
Lewiston team had to play game
the next day, the captain would not
allow his boys to attend. This in
cident caused a very unusual thing
to happen, namely, that for the first
time i'll the history of receptions in
Stevens hall, the girls very greatly
outnumbered the boys.

urday evening is worthy of the
patronage of every member of the

alike. From all we can learn, the
entertainment will be excellent.

Der of other selections were included
