HILL CHECKS HARTMAN
Railroad Purchased to Keep Riva
~-~ ~ from Pacific Coast.

Special to The Journal.
New York, March 1.-THE official
statement that the Bellingham Bay &
British Columbia railroad has been
practically sold to Hill interests came
as a complete surprise to those who
have been watching the events in the
far northwest. It was taken as a
foregone conclusion that E.. H. Harri-
man would turn up in control Of the
line, which would have given him his
uch-desired route thru Spokane to
the coast.
The purchase by Mr.. Hill is another
step in the policy Of this interest to
remain supreme in the territory north
Of Oregon and Wyoming. He has
no intention Of letting either Mr.. Har-
riman or any other interest gain
ground in the so-called Hill territory.
The merger decision, according to
Mr.. Hill, will not disarrange any Of the
plans of any Of the roads as seperate
properties. The few small extensions
and new lines into new country will
be carried on just the same as they
would have been had: the. decision IA
vored the company.
Canadian Pacific is still the pet en-
envy Of the Hill lines and will remain
| so, no matter what form the Hill
companies may take. The bad win
| ter in the far north has probably in
sured peace between these interests
in traffic matters at least for awhile,
The purchase Of Bellingham Bay
| strengthens the position of Mr., Hill
in the territory just south Of Cana
dian Pacific country and is intended
among other things, to prevent any
spreading of the influence Of the pow
erful and aggressive Canadian road
south Of the border.
| It also greatly complexities the diff
culties that would beset Canadian Pa
cif1c In any attempt to get into Spo-
kane from north or. west, or to build
Tits own lines anywhere south Of the
border.

Thousands Of Women Have Kidney !
Trouble and Never Suspect 1t

WOMEN suffer untold misery because
the nature Of their disease is not al
ways correctly understood; In many
cases when doctoring, they are led to
believe that womb trouble or female
weakness Of some sort Is responsible
for their ills, when in fact disordered
kidneys are the chief cause Of their
distressing troubles. Perhaps you
suffer almost continually with pain in
the back, bearing down feelings, head
ache and utter exhaustion.
Your poor health makes you nerv-
Gus, irritable, and at times despond-
emit; but thousands of just such suffer-
ing or broken-down women are being
restored to health and strength every
day by the use of that wonderful dis-
covery, DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the
great kidney, liver and bladder
remedy. %
Why Swamp-Root Gives Strength.
Not only does Swamp-Root bring
new life and activity to the kidneys,
the cause Of the trouble, but by
strengthening the Kidneys it acts as a
general tonic and food for the entire
constitution.
/ The mild and extraordinary effect of
the world-famous kidney and bladder
remedy. Swamp-Root, is soon realized.
It stands the highest for its wonderful
cures Of the most distressing cases.
A trial will convince any one-and
you may have q sample bottle sent
free by mail.
In taking DR.. Kilmer's swamp-Root
you afford natural help to nature, for
Swamp-Root is the most perfect heal
er and gentle aid to the kidneys that
has ever been discovered. Don't
make any mistake, but remember the
name, Swamp-Root, DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root; and the address, Bing-
hamton, N. z, on every bottle.

Merger Reference Objected to.
A. B. Robbins Of Robbinsdale fol-
lowed the reading of the resolutions
with a protest that there was no justi-
fcatiOn for bringing up as an issue
Of the campaign the merger question,
because there was no division in the
party on the subject. The raising Of
Of the party, he argued, was ill-advised
and apt to disrupt the party. Mr..
Robbins offered resolution to this
effect, but 1t was laid on the table by
an overwhelming majority. "s
The Robbins resolution read:
Resolved by the delegates Of the repub-
lican state convention, here assembled,
that We regard the declaration, no matter
from what source 1t may come, that there
is a difference Of opinion In the republican
party OF this state upon the subject of
merging parallel lines of railway, and that
there is within the lines Of the party a
faction favoring such consultations,
people of the state, as unwarranted and
untrue; and we do here declare that the
republican party of the state Of Minnesota
stands unalterably upon the proposition
that any such attempt at consolidation
should be resisted by every means avail
able, In defense OF the rights Of the peo-
pie Of the state under the laws.

that it is simply mining prop
osition. This is mistake, as it
is general development com
pany, and does not depend upon
its mining interests alone for it,
profits. The timber lands owned
by this company, for which an
immense market is spr;nging up,
will at q minimum estimate show
net profit of from $500 to $500
per acre for The timber alone,
aside from their value for agri
cultural and stock raising pur-
poses. This alone should make
the stock OF this company worth
$500 yer share within twelve
months.
In addition to what we now own
the company controls by option
over $4,000 acres OF the finest
timber and ranch lands in Mex
leo, into which railroads are now
being extended, from which an
immense profit will be made.
A message recently received
from our President, Mr. Davis,
states thai ore had been struck
in one Of our mines, the "Aven-
turera, running $500 to the
ton. For several years, as
shown by the American and
Mexican Smelters, to whom the
ore was shipped, this mine pro-
duced from SEQ to 1000 zone of
ore per month, even under the
crude and unbusinesslil<e meth
DDS by which IT was worked.
The records of the property
show the maximum, not mini
mum, cost of production to be
$2G5 per ton, to mine and deliv-
er at the Smelter. These costs
are not estimates, but actual
figures taken from the COM
pany's accounts. In such inn

reason why a judicious expen-
diture of moderate amount of
capital, should net bring the pro-
duction up to more than 5000
tons per month, and maintain it
at that figure for many years
to come. The net profit on low
grade ore will run So to $1,000
per ton. Assuming for safety
that three-fourths of the ore will
be classed as low grade ore, and
the OUTPUT maintained at min
inum of 1900 tons per mouth,
there would result a monthly net
profit of SIS, 900 to $20,000. With
an OUTPUT of 5000 tons per
month, this profit would be more
than doubled. It is more than
probable that ores of very much
higher values Will come in with
deeper workings. The great
Mexican Camrs of Santa Eula-
LA, Sierra Mojada, PenGles and
Monterey have each maintained
for years a product Of over LOCO
tons of ore per day, and there is
no,reason why this company
should rot DO as wei! or even
better The San Rafael Mines
are paying $500 per share per
month, the Pen0les $4,000 per
share, and the Nor:as de Bajan
$4,000, in fact IS of the more
noted mines in Mexico pay near
~ $4,000 geo in dividends annual
ly, and our properties are as
good as any of them.

LANDED SAFE IN JAIL
FRANK DUNCAN AGAIN IN JEFFER-
 TON BASTILE.
Murderer and Cracksman Made no Ef- fort to Escape While En Route from FIOrida--Gets a Shave
 in Montgomery.

Birmingham, Oct 7.-(SpeciaL)-- Frank Duncan, the condemned murderer and safe blower who escaped from jail here two years ago while under sen tence of death, was landed in the Jef- ferson jail again at noon today by Sheriff Burgin, Chief of Police Wier and Detective Bodeker, who went to Ia wares. Fla, after the man. A tremen dous crowd was at the depot when the train arrived at :45 o'clock. The prisoner was transferred quickly to the police patrol wagon and followed by large crowd he was rushed to the county jail.
 Duncan, when questioned. talked freely He said that he escaped from the Jail here by means of a wooden key and saws He denied that he used money in effecting his escape. He stated that from Birmingham he went to Chatta- nooga, from which point he went into the country. He denied that he had robbed thirteen safes in Florida before being captured. His wife was left ir Florida, but he says she is coming to Birm%gham. The arrest of Duncan was effected in the streets of St. Au- gustine the sheriff. chief of police and two men pushing pistols into his face. Duncan says that the officers got the drop on him and that when he went to draw his revolver it caught in his pocket.
 A close watch has been set on Dun can. In the next day or two he will be carried before the judge of the crim- inal court and sentenced to be hanged 1t will be not less than four nor more than eight weeks before execution takes place.
 Duncan was sentenced to death after being convicted of murder of G. w. Kfrtley, member of the Birmingham police department While the case was In the Supreme Court on appeal. Dun can. with three other men. made his escape from the county jail Sheriff Burgin since that time has been spend ing much money in the hope of recap turing Duncan. A reward of $500 was onered for the recapture of Duncan while the State also offered a reward.
 Much interest has been taken in the case since the first positive announce ment that Duncan had been caught and that he was to be brought back. Sher- in Burgin and Chief of Police wier had much trouble in getting the man from the government and State officials ia Florida on account of the cases pend- ing against the prisoner there. Dun- can made no effort to escape on the way back to Birmingham, Many ru- Inors were aloat that an effort would be made to wreck the train on which the prisoner was to be brought here. but nothing happened.
