Wall Street Says Missouri Pacifi
Wants Northwestern Extension.

New York, March 1T is reported
that Minneapolis & ST. Louis stock is
being bought by Gould brokers with
the idea of giving the Missouri Pacific
an extension into the northwest. The
stock was strong yesterday. altho deal
ings in it We're small Iowa Central
was helped by revival of the old ru-
NOR that the Minneapolis & st. Louis
would absorb it on the basis of 2 to /.
There is talk of an increase In divi-
dend on Northwest, but there would
have to be more of an increase than is
likely to be made next June to justify
the price of the stock on the ground of
returns alone. Ii the dividend We're
raised to per cent the return at pres
ent prices would be only about 3 per
cent. The true ground for the advance
lin Northwest is the fact that the large
surplus, large earnings and low CAPT.
taliZation per mile make the basis of
value far In excess of that shown by
most stocks. Sooner or later the North
west will be obliged to make distribu-
Ition of assets in the form of stock divi-
dends, as the company can earn divi-
dends which 1T would not be eXpedient
to pay on the present capital. There's
nothing to show that anything of this
kind is near, but 1t is clear that invest
ors are willing to take stock with the
idea of getting per cent for the pres
ent and the rest whenever the manage
ment decides the time has come to
make new capital arrangements.
The statement of the Burlington &
Quincy for several months shows the
lease of the property by the Northern
Pacific and Great Northern will be
profitable this year. The per cent re-
quired on Burlington bonds calls for
about $S,S0o,oO0. The earnings of the
Burlington applicable to dividends for
seven months ended January 81 We're
$7,255 700 or within about s1,600O00 OF
the full amount required on bonds. The
surplus earnings of the Burlington In
winter are sometimes not very large
altho they amounted in January to
SPA 1888 For the other five months
they should average as much and give
between $3,500,G00 and s4.700.00O of
dividend earnings. The Burlington is
of value to the Northern Pacific and
Great Northern on account of the traf-
fic advantages 1T affords and it is prob
able that some Encouragement of Bur
lington accounts in the future will add
profits which will be applicable to
stock.

AGAIN AFTER EVANS PLACE.
Kansans Urge the President to Mann
Peters or Blue.

Peters or Blue.
Washington. March 7.-Senator Bur-
ton and Representatives Curtis, Cal
derhead and Miller, representing the
Kansas delegation in congress, called
at the white house yesterday to confer
with the president about the appoint
ment of a commissioners of pensions TO
succeed H. Clay Evans. President
Roosevelt was too busy to go into the
case with the delegation and another
conference on the subject will be held
tomorrow.
The members of the Kansas delega-
ton are basing their claims for recog-
milton in the appointment of commits
sioner of pensions upon promise made
to them by President Mckinley during
the last session of congress. 1t is stat
ed by members of the Kansas delega-
ton that President Mckinley promised
that the successor to Pension Commits
sioner Evans should be selected from
Kansas. At that time the president
stated that he would not make any
change in the position so long as Mr..
Evans was under fire, but that when
change was made Kansas man should
have the place. 1t was the intention OF
the president at the time, so the Kan
sans claim, to give Mr.. Evans another
appointment equally as good as the po-
sition he then held and now holds. This
program was carried SO far, the report
goes. that Mr. Mckinley asked the
kansans to select candidate for the
place In response to this the Kansans
suggested the names of Samuel II. Pc
tiers and Richard Whiting Blue, both
veterans of the civil war and former
members of congress. Mr. Mckinley
had served in congress with both of the
men suggested and expressed his will
ingness to appoint one of them. Peti-
tons were circulated among the G. A.
r. posts in Kansas and Endorsements
for both Peters and Blue sent to Wash
ington. No action was taken on the
matter and it was still under consider
alton when Mr.. Mckinley was assassi-
mated.
Early in the present session of con-
gress members of the Kansas deega-
ton took the matter up with President
Roosevelt The president is reported
to have stated that he would consider
the question later on, Out WIS not us
posed to make any change so long as
Mr.. Evans was under fire. 1t is also
stated that the president intimated that
he would make no change unless spe-
cifc charges We're filed against Mr.. Ev-
ans and sustained The Kansans will
urge the president to appoint either Mr.
Peters or Mr. Blue to succeed Mr.. Ev-
ans. They will cite the charges that
have been filed against the pension
commissioner and the fight that is be-
ing made against him by the G. "A. r.
officials.

NO HOPE FOR GRAZING BILL.
Opposition Too Strong for Bowersock
Bill to Lease Public Lands.

Bill to Lease Public Lands.
Washington, March 1.-THE house
committee on public lands has practic-
ally decided that there will be legisla
ton at the present session of congress
regulating the leasing of public lands
for grazing purposes. The committee
has been having hearings on the ques-
ton, using the bill offered by Congress-
man Bowersock, of Kansas. as a basis.
This bill was introduced early in the
session, and has caused much discus
sion among the land owners and cattle
raisers of the west. The measure pro-
vides for the leasing of public lands
west of the Missouri river at an annual
rental of cents per acre, with prefer
ence given to owners of property ad-
Joining the public lands. The bill pro-
vides that the revenues derived from
the leases show the cost of administra-
ton shall be devoted to the reclamation
of arid lands.
The Bowersock bill was Endorsed by
the convention of the National Live
Stock Association in Chicago in De-
cember It's introduction was followed
by protests from every state in the UNI
ion, in which there are public lands.
The smaller stockmen and the owners
of homesteads have been very emphatic
in their opposition to the measure, as
sorting that it was framed to meet the
wishes of the large owners who have
monopolized the ranges for years.
Congressman Lacey, of Iowa, chair
man of the house committee on public
lands, in discussing the prospects of a
brazing bill, said, Il do not believe
there is any chance of the Bowersock
bill getting out of the committee. There
