MIL LWAUKEE MAN WILL TRY TO
RAISE The SHIP ANDELANA

Work began today on another attempt
TO ralse the ship Andeiana, which sank
near the mouth Of the Puyallup river in
1899. She was riding at anchor, having
completed diseharging all her ballast, when
a squall came mp In the night and the
ship and her crew of II men disappeared.
1t is thought that the ship turned turtle"
during the gale on account Of the fact that
she carried no ballast.
Several attempts to raise the ship have
been made heretofore, and all of them
were failures, and one Of them proved
fatal to Diver William Baldwin, who went
down to the ship in the ordinary divers
outfit. The ship lies in about 1870 feet
Of water and the ordinary apparatus will
not stand the pressure that exists at that
depth.

JAS. ]. HILL WINS HIS FIGHT FOR
CONTROL OF NORTHERN PACIFIC

ST. PAUL, April l9.-Jomes J. Hill has
won his battle against Hartman in the
United States circuit court and will re-
tain control of the Northern Pacific rail-
way.
The court today denied the right of
Hartman and Pierce to file a petition
against Hill to compel him to distribute
Northern Securities stock in such a way
that the two complainants would get
controlling interest in the shares of the
Northern Pacific.
James j. Hill is mbilant over the de-
cision. lie said today that it was the
greatest thing for the Northwest that had
occurred in many years, inasmuch as it
will keep Hartman and his Union Pacific
from winning its fight to divert traffic
from the Northwestern roads to the Union
Pacific.
Recently Hill threatened to sell out the
Great Northern railway and quit the busi-
ness altogether if Hartman got control
of the Northern Pacific.

tackle to parts Of the wreck by means OF
arms that are attached to the outside Of
the cage and are 80 made that they are
operated from within.
The cage alone when filled with air will
not sink, and metal weights are attached
to the bottom to sink it. The weights
may be detached from within, thus let
ting the cage rise to the surface Of the
water. This prevents any danger that
might ensue should the cable break. The
cage is provided with sea-coolg, by means
of which water can be taken in for ball
last, and with pump to take the water
out
This invention has been successfully used
on the Great Lakes by the inventor, who Is
here to superintend the first work to be
performed on the Sound with the aid Of
this apparatus.
As many as six people have gone down
in the cage at one time, although two are
usually employed at work
1t is expected TINT the old ship viii
soon be located, although some are Of
the opinion that she will be covered with
silt from the river Should the vessel be
raised the salvage company will realize
neat sum for its efforts The Andelana
was well built and II is the opinion Of
many that she viii not be found to be
badly damaged.
