Reports Say President James

Railway. se 4.'7

st. Paul may soon be the terminal of
a great gulf railway system, extending
Vrom Houston, Tex, to Duluth.
Dispatches from Omaha, Kansas City
ana Sioux City say that a railroad ex-
tendlng from the northern boundary Of
the United States tos the Gulf of Mex
leo IS projected, and President James j.
Hill, OF the Great Northern, is credited
with being the principal hacker of the
new line
President Hill is. now in New York but
ms son, l.. w. Hill, vice president of the
Great Northern was interviewed iyester-
DAY regarding the runners about the new
north and-south linee
There is a foundation for the report"
said Mr. Hill. However, 1 do not care
70 discuss, the matter. The people at
Sioux City know more about it than we
do here in St Paul. .,-.
The dispatch from Sioux City says:
Basing their judgment on recent state
ments of James J. Hill in discussing the
western railroad situation, together with
developments of the last fortnight in
Northern Securities matters railroad and
business men here believe that the Great
Northern and Burlington systems are
planning to develop, a north-and- south
line across the United States from lakes
to gulf, at right angles to its present
system from the lakes to the Pacific coast.
A few weeks ago. before the decision
OF the Harriman-Pierce action in the mat
ter of distributing. the Northern Securities
assets Mr.. Hill sent for committee of
business men of this city, which is the
most southern point on the Great North
ern system, to come to St. Paul. He
made Known to them then that he wanted
to acquire important franchises for
building road through this city, and that
he desired to secure control of the Union
Terminal company, which owns valuable
terminal systeFnrand union depot.
An Important System.
Mr.. Hill talked, at much length of the
importance of a north and-South system
from lakes to- gulf. He was especially
emphatic in saying that after the Panama
canal is opened an increasing proportion
to and come from the southern coast.
! Mr. Hills Great Northern comes to
Sioux City. The Burlington goes from
Omaha to- KansassqCity. There is a gap
of ninety miles between Omaha and
Sioux City, and a mysterious electric
railroad is being built to fill this gap.
1t is building with ninety pound standard
steel rails; its hackers are unknown, but
it. has plenty of money, and is believed
by railroad men to be the Great North
ern link, .,
From Kansas City comes persistent sto-
ries that the Burlington surveying par
ties are working south of that city, on
is a general belief In that city that the
Burlington contemplates such an ex-
tension soon.
The latest piece of significant news is
that the Union Terminal company of this
city will not renew its lease of accom-
modationS to the Illinois Central, which
expires. May l. This is taken to mean
that Hill has finally bought the terminal
property and does not want the Illinois
Central as q tenant

GROSSCUP SPEAKS
ON CORPORATIONS
Judge Says Existing Evils

DIES MONIES. Iowa, April 27.-Before
an audience composed of the representa-
tive men of the state of Iowa, United

Frederick c. Windler of Milwaukee, and
Nathan f. Kendall, of Abba member Of

the other speakers.
Judge Grosscup's central thought was
that corporations should be nationalized
SO as to admit citizens to ownership.
1.-The paramount danger of the corporate
power prevailing III America" he said,
lies not so much in what specific thing
q corporation may do. as in the fact that,

FLOODS CRIPPLE
500 LINE TRAINS
Western Service Is Abandoned
and Great Northern Cares
for Traffic.

Train service on the 500 line west of st.
Paul has been abandoned since Tuesday,
April 10, on account of the floods in the
Mouse river country, southeast of M1not,
N. ID. From reports received yesterday
1t looks as if it will be at least ten days
before the road will be able to resume
regular service.
According to reports received in st.
Paul yesterday, ten miles Of the Soo's
track is under water. The Mouse river is
still rising and the condition is rapidly
growing worse instead of improving.
Officials of the 500 line yesterday APP
pealed to the Great Northern for assist
ance, and until the floods recede the
roads Western passenger traffic will be
cared for by the Great Northern via Win
nipeg. $50
Last night the Great Northern's train
carried two Canadian Pacific SleeperS, and
the Western immigration business of the
500 line was also cared for by the Great
Northern. Today the 500 will turn over
forty-Seven cars of immigrants houSe-
hold goods, which will be carried to Win
nipeg by the Great Northern. -l-
The first word Of the flood was received
In st. Paul over week ago The 500
WeSt-bOund passenger train was stalled
at ST. Carr by the overflow of the Mouse
river. Since then no train has been able
to pass through the flood districts. Four
or five trains are now stalled at Minot
waiting for the waters to recede.
water on the 500 track is over five feet
deep in many places, while the whole
roadbed from Minot to Logan is under
water.
Passengers Detained.
Hundreds of passengers have been
obliged to wait over in st. Paul and Min
neapolis for the floods to recede. Yester-
day holders of 500 line tickets were mott
fed that their transportation would be
honored on the Great Northern. At the
500 offices 1t was said that the flood is
the worst that the line has. ever expert
enced.
General Manager Pennington last night
said that he is unable to say when the
road will be opened LAS soon as the riv-
er goes back to its natural bed we will
open our line said Mr.. Pennington. at
will be but the work of a few hours to
get the track in shape when the water re-
cedes, but until then we are poWer1ess.
I'VE have several gangs of men on
the ground, who will start to work just
as soon as they have the opportunity,
but nothing can be done until the water
recedeS. cannot estimate what the
damage will amount to until the track
is cleared
The Great Northern, too, is suffering
some inconvenience from the floods, but
has been able to run its trains with a
little loss of time. The tracks of the 500
are to the south of Minot. where the river
makes a turn. The land in that country
is very low and marshy.

BROWN GETS OUT ON BAIL.
Ex-CIerk of Poor Department Files E
Cash Bond.

Charles H. Brown, former clerk in
is expressed as to the suficiency of the
poor under the Ames administration, is
out on bail, after spending two nights
in Jail. He filed a cash bond, having
received the money from his father in
New York
Notwithstanding Browns explicit ad-
missions of official malfeasance, doubt
is expressed as to the Sufficiency of the
case against him. Brown was SUBJ
poenaed in the Johnson case, and it
was as q witness for the state that he
admitted various Irregularities in con-
nection with his labOrs. 1t is said by
some lawyers that this evidence cannot
be used against him. Again, it is urg
ed, W. H. Johnson, his former chief,
may not testify against him.
The case is set for May 5, but can
hardly be reached on that date, as the
Ames trial will then have the center of
the stage.
