HILL I'M THE DEAL.
Believed to Be Behind Hertis's Offer
to Lease CHICAGO Traction Lines.

st. Paul, March 14.-Big capitalists of
the northwest and Canada are said to
be behind the offer of c. NJ. Her,ig of
ST. Cloud. Mimi, to lease the existing
street railway lines in Chicago or TO
parallel the tracks. The proposition is
declared to have tremendous backing,
and a strenuous attempt will be made
to obtain the right to operate street
cars turnout Chicago on the basis of q
Scent fare and universal transfers.
In his communication to the commit
tee on local transportation of the Chi
cago city council Mr.. Hertig said that
he was backed by a syndicate of capt.
talists. 1t is maintained here that he is
acting for syndicate headed by Thorn
as Lowry. president of the Twin City
Rapid Transit Company of st. Paul.
and including Montreal capitalists.
James j. Hill. and some of the big
bankers of Minnesota. Mr. Hertig is on
the closet terms with Messrs. Lowry
and Hill. He is an expert street railroad
man.
Mr. Hertig will go to Chicago in few
days to show that he will be able to
carry out his plans and to present argu-
ments before the committee in behalf of
the proposed grant. Those who know
him we'll say that he would not be like
ly to make such an offer if he We're not
sure of his ground, and that he would
likely be chosen by the capitalists to
carry out the details of such Il ire
mendous undertaking.

VALUE OF TESTIMONY.
Greater Than Assertion.

There is none of us so hardened but
that when we have been able to aid
our fellow creatures by comforting a
benefit or bringing little comfort in
to their lives we like to have apprecia-
ton shown. This generally affords
more pleasure than the performance
of the act itself, and in this connection
the following letter from a Paris. Tex,
lady is of more than usual interest.
Dear Friends-I address you as such,
for you have been such to me. l suffer-

more convincing than all claims and

Market Gossio.

Chicago, March 14.--Dealers report
only q slight improvement in the coun-
try demand for stockers and feeders.
Business today was of small volume
and was done at unchanged prices.
Scalpers have large number of cat
tie on hand at present.
There is a feeling among those ia
miliar with the situation that fat cat
tie Will be scarce during the spring
months. Supplies of cattle on feed to
be finished in April. May, and June
are not large. A good many cattle
have been fed in spite of dear corn,
and a good many have gone to the
feed lots since corn has declined; bu;
the first-cass are pretty we'll mar
keted and the second will not be
ready.
Reports which have the color of
reliability are coming from the east
to the effect that the supply of live
stock is running short. This seems
particularly true as to hogs, and is
evidenced by the fact that the ship
ments have been getting larger Many
are of the opinion that the hogs are
"al run out" of the eastern states
and that the demand at this market
will continue good for several months.
