MILES OF TRACK
SLOWLY SLIDING

The Atchison Globe says: ION the
Missouri Pacific between Leavenworth
and Kansas City, three miles of track
are sliding toward the river. There Is
one stretch Of two miles south Of
Leavenworth where the whole bluff Is
slipping down. The bluff is also slid,
ing at Quindaro. The track is constant
~ being moved back as the bluff sinks
into the river. Great trees that are
fifty or a hundred years old are cut
down before they reach the track.
When the stumps are near the track
they must be pulled up. At first this
problem Of pulling up the big stumps
was puzzling but Roadmaster Miller
was equal to the occasion. He got a
100 ton locomotive and a massive
chain. By means Of the chain he
hitched the iron horse to the stump,
and told the engineer to 60 ahead.
For a few minutes there was a dead
pull. The stump had its claws too
deep in the earth to be moved, and the
iron horse did not move. Then the
iron horse backed a little, and lurched
forward with all its power. The stump
came up, but it made the earth trem-
BILE around it. All the stumps are now
being pulled ZIP BY a 120-ton locomo.
tive. The excessive rains for the past
two years have started the landslides.
Near Leavenworth it can be plainly
seen where the bluff has parted. It
looks as il 1t had been split at the sum.
nit by some giant knife, letting the
east half part company with the west
half after a unoin Of centuries. It is
believed by the railroad men that the
passing Of railroad trains over the
west side of the bluff has Jared the
bluff loose, and is causing il to slide.
The bluff has been knawa TO come
down an inch in a day. fal a get
an idea OF one Of these slides just
below the Mass brick yards on the
road to the mine at Atchison. The
slide there is a small one, but in the
past ten years the bluff has sunk over
twenty feet.

Gov. Van SAINT Increases Re.
ward for Dahl Murderers


Gov. Van SAINT yesterday, on the re-
quest of H. j. Loud, county attorney of
Beltrami county, offered a reward OF
$500 for information that will lead to
the arrest and conviction of the persons
N. O. Dahl and his daughter, Miss
Aagot Dahl, near During, Beltrami
county, early in April
Miss Dahl was living on a homestead
and her father, who came from Crooks
ton, was paying her visit. They were
last seen April and April II neigh
bors found the house deserted and in
dicationS that the girl and her aged
father had been foully dealt with.
Relatives have offered a reward of
$3.50, Beltrami county has offered $500
with prospective increase of $1,000,
and yesterday the governor added $500
to the total offered for the conviction
of the criminals!
Dahl is supposed to have had $4,000
in the house and the county attorney
writes that details and circumstances
about the case have made me feel GER
tain that one of the foulest crimes in
the history of the state has been COM
mitted," and he is anxious that the
perpetrators do not go unpublished as
they did in the case of J. c.. Sullivan,
who disappeared under similar circum-
stances.
The county attorney intimates that
suspicious are directed towards Ger
tain persons and that in his opinion the
offering of a substantial reward will
result in some one conversant with the
facts detailing them to the authorities.

SAYS PROSPECTS FOR
BIG CROP ARE FINE
r. A. Wilkinson Declares Country
Looks Prosperous Clear to Spokane


Minnesota and North Dakota will
have crop above the average said r.
A. Wilkinson, general solicitor of the
Great Northern, who returned yester-
day from trip as far west as Spokane,
Wash.
Barring few small tracts in North
Dakota, prospects for a big yield are
excellent, and about Larimore and in
the country to the west of that point I
look to see not only a fine crop, but
great amount of grain. for the acre
age seems to be larger than in former
years. The railroads will have all they
can do to handle the crop this fall if
present indications are worth any
thing. The hay crop is good don't
believe In my long residence in Mime
sofa ever saw finer hay crop, and
the weather just now is right for cur
ing it and putting it away for next
winters use.
THE country clear through to Spo-
kane looks prosperous and on every
hand there are indications of rapid
development and of the Introduction

BOARD ] RAISES TAX
Boosts Assessment of Local
Storage Company

The board of equalization, at it's first
working meeting. yesterday, raised the
assessment of the Mercantile Seed and
Storage company from $500 to SIT 900.
The company holds in storage goods
belonging to different persons, and
when called upon by the assessor to
furnish the names of the parties own
ing the stored goods, declined to do so.
The board decided to make the entire
assessment against the storage com
pany.
Assessor Conley said yesterday that
he expected the company to carry the
matter into the courts, but expressed
the opinion that the county would win.
Three years ago a similar assessment
was made against st. Paul liveryman,
who declined to give the names of
owners of horses and vehicles kept in
his barn. The assessment was made
against the liveryman, and the courts
decided that he was liable for it.
A few other cases of minor Importance
We're considered by the board yester-'
day, none of them involving amounts
of any consequence. The board is now
down to business, and it is expected
that much work will be accomplished
each day from now until the board adj
journs.
