Northern Pacific, Great Northern and
Wisconsin Central Take Action.
. The action Of the Great Northern and
the Northern Pacific roads in refusing to
supply cars for shingles destined to points
east of st. Paul is said to have been pre-
cipitated by the Wisconsin Central's re-
fusal to accept shingles at the transfer
unless loaded In cars billed to points east
of the Central's lines. There was moth
ing for the transcontinentals to do but
to serve notice on the manufacturers. The
Central took action because Of the ac-
cumulation of shingles at Wisconsin
points 3s,,s /, s4s$s 81 f5S ss
The demand for freight cars in the
east has been so great that eastern traffic
managers have not hesitated to hold all

have been billed in many cases to fictitious
consignees for no other purpose than to
utilize the cars as storage warehouses

It is asserted further that the company
has been a good deal more closely, oper--
ated than d year ago, and that the man
agement has been able to cut down ton
mile cost quite appreciably. The result
is that net earnings are running very
largely in excess of those of last year.
1t is predicted that the operation of the
Burlington system in the current fiscal
year will show a handsome profit over all
charges, including the joint As its own

The company has something over $22,
600, 900 of per cent bonds falling due on

to refund these. It is said that it was
extremely probable that if the Northern
Securities case had been decided in favor
of the company, these bonds would have
been taken up with the stock in place of
other bonds. The Northern Securities
organization would have enabled the
gradual abolition of bonded debt on all

BINGHAMTON, N. Y, March 25.-- Before the nature of the disease was discovered twenty-one of the fifty-four persons in the little hamlet of Stevens Point, about i've miles east of susque- hanna, Pa, were town with the small pox. The disease was brought to the place by man who had been working in New Jersey. A few days after he returned home he developed what was called the 'itch." No physician was called. but many people of Susquehan- na and surrounding country were ex- posed. The latter part of last week other people in the village began to de- velop the 'itch." When a physician was called, the disease was declared to be smallpox. Twenty-one people are sick, and several hundred in the sur rounding country have been exposed.
