THAT BURLINGTON DEAL
LOCAL RAILROAD MEN ARE GEN
ERALLY SKEPTICAL RE
GARDING 1T
LOOKS LIKE WALL STREET COUP
Report That Hill Was to Secure
Control Sent stock Soaring, just
as a Similar Report Af-
fected milwaukee.

The latest report from Chicago, that j.
]. Hill and those associated with him
have secured control of the Burlington,
is regarded rather skeptically here. Rail-
road men profess to think that the same
kind of a game is being engineered with
the Burlington stock as was recently
brought off with the Milwaukee The
persistent reports that Mr.. iii was about
to secure control of the Burlington has
had the desired effect, ana the stock Of
that road has jumped nearly ten points
in the past few days. If it develops that
the system has actually been transferred,
the stock will go higher still, as there is
said to. be a guarantee Unat per cent
will be paid on the common stock.
There are elements of plausibility in the
story, as it has been announced from
Chicago, and there are not wanting shrewd
railroad men in this city, who assert
that If the deal is not already through,
1t will be in a few days These say that
the Burlington is gradually reaching out
toward the Pacific coast, and that event
ualy 1t Will get there unless il is Sc
cured by some road which already crosses
the Rockies Once there as an independ-
ent road. it is claimed that it will cut
into the business Of the Great Northern
and the Northern Pacific to a ruinous ex-
tent. The Burlington system has lines
tdppihS an the Middle west and its area
of distribution is large 1t is therefore
said that the two roads mentioned as
having interest in the deal, the Great
Northern and the Northern Pacific. are
most desirous of getting hold of the Bur
hngton, and have been for some time
Those who have no belief aat such a
deal is contemplated and they are in
the majority, say that the Burlington is
not situated so to be able to build to
the coast on its own account, and that
capitalists are not inclined to invest in
any more coast line enterprises. there be-
ing plenty of roads to accommodate al
possible demands of trade for many
Years On this account tney say that the
burlington will never be a keen compet-
itor for coast business against either
the Great Northern or the Northern Pa

Austria Talking Prnfantinn

WASHINGTON, March 17.-There is a
strong movement afoot in Austria
against the Importation of American
products, according to advices received
at the state department from United
States Consul Hossfeld, at Trieste. The
expiration of the tariff treaties of Aus.
tria- Hungary, in 1902, will necessitate a
general revision of the customs laws of
the country, and Consul Hossfeld saws
there is certainly every indication that
the new tariff laws will be framed with
a special view to prohibiting the importa-
ton of American products
majority of Austria's economists have
TO fear of American retaliation, states
the consul, because Austria buys from
the United States more than she sells tc
her.
In conclusion, the consul saws that
public opinion certainly appears to be
with the protectionists, who are a well
organized and active body

statement In this connection, and when
asked as to the exact position of Mr.
Hill In the company he replied that that
gentleman owned about 80 per cent of
the capital stock. 1t was true that a
considerable proportion OF the OUTPUT
would be marketed In the United States,
ne said, but the capacity Of the mines
would be enlarged SO as to meet both
the Canadian and the American demand
Inc company made q large sum of
money on the current years operations,
put not dollar will he paid In dividends
al the profits are to be devoted to adj
dlhonal development work, and In addi-
ton, about $1,000 900 will be spent ont of
