c1RcuMsrANr1AL EVIDENCE
Burlington Seems to Be Backing the
Moffatt Road.

Chicago. Oct. 15.-The latest rumor in
railroad circles and one that IS accept
ed as fact il; the west is that the Bur
lineton is the moving influence which
has furnished the capital for the con-
struction of the Western Pacific road
from Salt Lake to San Francisco ana
the Moffat road between Salt Lake and
Denver
At the time of the construction it
was insisted that the Western Pacific
was projected by George j. Gould IN
order that he might better realize ms
cherished ambition of having sys-
tenn from ocean to ocean. and although
the story was denied Dersistently by
the executive heads of the Gould inter
csts there were many who refused to
be convinced to the contrary.
The indications now are that the Bur-
lington will have solid trains running
over its own lines from Chicago to San
Francisco. Those who see the hand of
the burlington behind the Moffat and
James J. Hill and j.. PierDont Morgan
are large holders in both roads.
1t will be recalled that the Burlington
surrendered it's canyon surveys and
other rights to David H. Moffat less
than a year ago and at that time it
was thought strange that so little of
fight was made. Many supposed it was
because Gould was behind the Moffat
enterprise The latter had been incor-
porated for $50 coo, 900. Moffat expert
enced considerable difficulty in placing
his bonds and it was evident that he
was being opposed by the powerful
moneyeG interests in Wall street. But
when least expected he was successful,
and it became evident then that he
was not without, the help of powerful
forces.
When the Western Pacific was pro-
jected it was thought to be imaginary
and little attention was paid to it, but
the incorporation papers were filed in
Salt Lake City and the fees amount
ing to s12, 500, We're paid promptly. La
ter the western Pacific Construction

FIGHT ON PARKS.
Railroad Magazine Reviews Result O
Iron Workers Convention.

The Railway. and Engineering Review
says:
The outcome of the Iron Workers
convention in Kansas City, which de-
veloped into a conflict between the
president of the organization and the
business agent of Local No. % of New
York city, who has been convicted Of
blackmail does not afford much en-
couragement to those who are hoping
for a return to common sense on the
part of labor organizations. Although
the president of the organization won
the fight, so far as his office was con-
cerned, 1t was evident that the SYM
pathies of the gathering were largely
with Mr. Parks, the business agent in
question. So much encouraged was he
by the manifestations of support that
he introduced a resolution to the effect
that the committee -of ways and means
immediately proceed to raise a fund to
relieve the shortage in the treasury OF
Local No. ?, which he claimed had
been depleted in resisting the attempt
of organized capital to disrupt it. He
did not explain, although it was well
understood, that this expenditure was
incurred in defending Mr.. Parks against
the criminal charge made against him
and on which he was convicted. Sym
pathy in case of misfortune is COM
mendable, but when extended in ex-
tenuation of a criminal act it is repre-
henSible. There is no sort of doubt
that Mr.. Parks WILL in a short time,
De COnp0ileQ 10 SuIIef I1o penalty OF
his crimes and all the more justly for
the reason that he glories in them. The
laboring man ought to understand, as
he apparently does not, that his ulti
mate safety lies in the strict enforce
ment of law, and that he cannot afford
either to be a law breaker or to coun-
tenance one. 1t may seem that, for
the time being. the law is against him,
but so far as he is in the right he will
find in the last analysis that it is on
his side. The people of the country,
whose expression of justice is the law,
will see to it that the workingman is
protected, if only he shall demonstrate
that he relies on it for that purpose If,
as has too often been the case recently,
he shall take the matter inc his own
hands and defy the law it will have
the effect of deferring the time of his
vindication. In any event, the laboring
man cannot afford to defend and sup
port the criminal who glories in his de-
fiance of the law of the land.

BOUGHT A HILL
Missouri Pacific Using It to Raise It's
Kansas City Tracks.

River front property owners have set
tied in their own minds how the depot
question will be solved. They point to the
fact that the Missouri Pacific paid the al
most prohibitive price of $500 an acre for
worthless land about six miles east of the
city and is hauling it to the East bottoms

chine shops Cypress yards are doomed,

FINISH ARMoURDALE WORK
Rock Island Has 40 Miles of Side
tracks With More Planned.

Work will be finished on the Rock
Island railway yard in Armourdale this
week. Seventeen more tracks will be
laid next spring and new roundhouse
built. but all the addition which is to
he huiIt this wear will be finished by
Saturday. The rest of this season the
men will be employed in repairing flood
damage to the old yard.
In the old yard are eleven tracks;
these are two miles long, making
vardage of twenty-five miles. The new
ward has seventeen tracks, ranging froni
one mile to one and one-half miles in
length with a total length of twelve
miles. This gives the Rock Island forty
miles of side tracks in Armourdale and
twelve more miles are-to be added next
year. The new yard is so built that both
it and the old are in reality one yard
with four lead switches.

THREE CUT
IN A FIGHT.
Charles Street the Scene aOt
Bloody Fray Last Night Men
Arrested.
ARE BADLY SLASHED.

A serious stabbing affray took place
at 1S Charles street last night. Three
Hungarians were the principals.
About 8 O'Clock Mrs. Smith, who
rents the house, went for Fatrolman
Schultz and wanted him to compel
some tenants of hers to stop their
drinking and creating noise. These
tenants are Lawrence Cwick and wife.
They occupy the top floor. Schultz
found things orderly and went away.
About IL O'Clock he was attracted
to the neighborhood by sounds of a
fight He found Cwick in a pool of
blood near his door. Near by were
Charles Smith and Andrew Antowo-
witz. Cwick said in court this morn
ing the two men set upon him and
stabbed him. Smith says he met
Cwlck and started to complain of the
noise the latter and his friends were
making when Cwick stabbed him and
he seized him. Then Cwick's wife,
he said, went for him ana Antowo-
witz, who boards with Smith, went
to his aid.
The origin of the fight Is hazy.
khs two men charged with the stab
1g say it was because Of the foul
Language used by Owick. AS it is,
Cwick has two cuts in the head TAX
ing four and five stitches, one in the
shoulder of six stitches and one in the
wrist. Antowowitz had cut in the
head and Smiths hand is also cut.
DR.. Lund dressed the wounds. All
were held for the Grand Jury, Anto-
wowitz and Smith in $500 bail each
and Cwick and a witness in 800.
Smith obtained his bail and the others
promised to do so.
