RAILROAD WAR AT HAND.
Looks Like the Opening of the Battle
Between Northwest Lines.

Portland, Nov. 14.-Northern Pa
cific railroad officials have made a
move which by many is considered as
the opening punch in a railroad war
between the Hill and Hartman in
terests in the Northwest, in giving to
the steamer Charles r. Spencer
docking facilities for freight dis
charge at Vancouver, Wash.
Through this arrangement it will
be possible for the Spencer to land
up-river freight intended for Puget
Sound points at a point near North
ern Pacific tracks.
In the past 1t has been necessary
for the Spencer's freight for the
Sound country to be trucked from
the docks to the Northern Pacific
freight yards, as the boat was not al
lowed to land at the docks of the o.
r. 4 N. Co., Hartman road. 1t is
claimed this is because the o. r. &
n. has control of the Regulator line
and the Columbia River & Northern
railroad, in direct competition with
which the Spencer is run.
1t has long been considered that
Northern Pacific territory, conceded
as exclusive under the old compact,
WIS being invaded by the Columbia
River & Northern. Something in the
way of retaliation has long been ex-
pected. 1t is believed 1t has come.

Japanese army in front of Mukden, is
dead Kuroki's death followed
wounds received during the recent
fighting. Prince Siassinii will sue

actual command of the army.
The news of the death of the fa-
nous commander comes In tele-
gram received today from Memiro-
witch Danchenko, the well known
Russian war correspondent of the
London papers. who wires from
Mukden that the reports of Kurokis
death have been confirmed. Some
time ago il was rumored that Kuro-
XII had been killed, but little credence
was placed in the story. Now, how
ever, comes confirmation of the re-
port.
According to Danchenko's version
Kuroh was struck by a splinter from
shell. which tore out IA portion OF
the breast and abdomen, inflictine

Kansas CITY, Nov. 14.-President
WinchelA, of the Rock Island. takes
no stock in the story that the con-
solidatiUn of tall the railroads of the
country in five groups under one
ownership Is protected.
This denial is the outcome of the
persistent rumor which has prevailed
in Wall street and railroad circles to
the effect that the Standard Oil Com
pany ander the ''masterful hand of
John d. Rockefeller, has planned the
most gigantic coup ever attempted
in the history of the financial world,
the end to be the consolidation of all
the great systems of railroad in the
United States under one manage
merit.
Standard Oil interests are to ma
nipulate the deal and the recent ac-
cesSfons made to Rockefeller hold
ings point to the ronsummation-o of
this plan.
The proposed groups with their
headquarters and the systems includ-
ed in each of the five arms of the
railroad octopus are as follows:
Group No. /, Northern Pacific and
Great Northern, with headquarters at
Chicago; Union Pacific, Southern
Pacific and Santa Fe, group 2, head
quarters at Chicago; Southeastern
and Gulf roads, in group 3. with
headquarters at st. Louis; northeast
ern ,and New England in group 4,
with headquarters at New York and
all t1he central western roads in
group 5, with headquarters at either
Cincinnati or indianapolis.
Rockefeller has not denied the ru-
NOR and Wall street believes 1t is a
perfected plan in all except the mi
nor details.
