Rock Island Meets soo's $40 Rate

M. & st. +.
Grand Trunk Getting Business East
$33 Rate Is Made to
Boston.

From to-day until Saturday one may
purchase round-trip tickets to New York
for SIS, the return ticket good until Sept.
80. The Rock Island has met the cut
made by the 500, and this noon the ST.
Louis management announced that 1T
would sell at the same rate. Up to that
time the Milwaukee local office had not
heard what action it's line would take.
A good many calls came in to-day for So
round-trip tickets to Chicago, good Thurs
day.
The rate made by. the Chicago lines
thus far Is over the Grand Trunk and by
way Of Montreal. AS the Grand Trunk is
the natural enemy Of the Canadian Pa
cifc, it is getting back at the 500 by max
ing it possible for the Minneapolis-Ch
cago lines to take from the 500 consider
able business incident to the Eagles con-
vention in New York.
Owing to the stable condition of east
bound rates beyond Chicago it is hardly
possible that any Of the roads will be able
to meet the 500 cut except over the Grand
Trunk. AS the eastern roads are demand
ing the regular fare and one-third east OF
Chicago, or $24, the twin city lines which
sell by Niagara will have to stand a 81
round trip rate from Minneapolis to Chi
cago as their portion of the business.
BY the Grand Trunk route, which COM
petes at Montreal with the 500, the con-
Meeting lines get $7.75 to Chicago. only
rs cents less than the rate the roads be-
tween Minneapolis and Chicago have made
voluntarily for the round trip on Aug. 81.
With the $25 rate to New York goes
a $33 rate to Boston and one of $3.50 to
Portland, Me-, and return. The 500 has
made rate of $3.50 to Detroit and re-
turn; $1410 to Toledo; $14.60 to Cleve-
land; $16.1O to Buffalo and return These
tickets will be on sale Sept. IL, good to

WIRELESS FOR ALASKA
The Government VIII Try to Link
Far Northern Cities by Mar
conf System.
Washington, Aug. 25.-with the begin

Washington, Aug. 25.-With the begin
ming of the new year the United States
will be Independent of British te1egra phi
and cable lines in communicating with
its Alaskan possessions. This will be
brought about by a new cable between
Seattle Sitka and Juneau. The line will
be a military one, but open for all uses.
At present the United States has sew
eral hundred miles of telegraph lines in
Alaska. These extend from Skaguay to
St. Michael and other important military
stations, but the British telegraph lines
crossing the Alaskan boundary near Skag-
uay are the only means of reaching the
Alaskan lines from the United States. (,
In case of war with Great Britain the
United States could reach Alaska only by
sea and would have no means of com
munication with Yukon river points other
than by the circuitous steamer route.
The cable laid by the government be-
tween ST. Michael and Fort Davies, 100
miles in length, was broken by the ice
last winter and has not yet been repaired.
Experiments are being made there now
with wireless biography, and if this
proves a success it is likely that the gov
eminent will Establish communication be-
tween many of the Alaskan coast cities by
means Of the wireless system.

FIGHT FOR CONTROL
Democratic Factions in the Buckeye
State Line Up for To-morrows
Convention.

Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 25.-Preliminary
meetings Of the democratic state conven-
ton here to-day are the most hotly con-
tested in the history Of the party in this
state.
The contest between Mayor Johnson of
Cleveland and John L. Zimmerman of
Springfield for the gubernatorial nomina-
ton overshadows everything else politi-
cally.
If Johnson wins at the district meetings
this afternoon and at the meetings OF the
conventions tonight, he will be able to
name the senatorial candidate and the rest
of the ticket and control the new state
central committee as well as secure the
adoption of his platform, and if thinner
man controls the district meetings of the
delegates and the committees he will be
nominated and the conservatives will re-
turn to the control of the party.
While the race between johnson and
Zimmerman has been very close for
weeks, on the day Of voting the odds seem
to be in favor of Johnson. His arrival on
a special train from Cleveland, accom-
panied by hundreds of shouting followers,
gave an impetus to his candidacy, altfio he
had many managers and more workers
here than Zimmerman before the
triumphal march from the depot to-day.
The Johnson men have the old state COM
missioners with them and the influence OF
the party organization is seen much more
distinctly to-day than heretofore.

THEY'RE NOT WORRYING
Leech Lake Timber Will Go Readily
Enough, Says Commission

From The Journal Bureau, Room IS, Post Build
ing, Washington.
Washington, Aug. 25.--Oficials of the
land office here are not worrying over
threats that the Minneapolis lumbermen
may decide not to bid on the Leech Lake
timber next December. Commissioner
Richards would not discuss such a con-
tingency at any length, contenting himself
with saying that he didn't think fine
merchantable white pine like that would
go begging"
Other officials say that there is little
doubt of good competition now that the
time limit for the removal Of the timber
| has been extended to five years.
| Many inquiries have been received at
| the department for copies of the new
regulations and lists of lands to be sold.
| These Inquiries come from operators in
Wisconsin and Michigan and indicate an
| intention on the part of those men to bid
an derect mills on the reservation if sue
| cessful.
| It is said at the land office that copies
| Of regulations for the cutting Of this tim
| be rwill be ready early lneXt month. The
law requires that they shall be available
ninety days before the sale, and the de-
partment intends to have them ready on
the exact day they are due.
