LOOKS LIKE A PIPE DREAM
Yarn About Hauling Thirty Million
Bushels of Corn to Liverpool
Rather FiHhy.

Local freight men do not put much Gre
dence in the report from Chicago that the
Milwaukee has contracted to haul &c, 900 900
bushels of corn from Omaha and Kansas
City to Liverpool. The local Milwaukee
authorities have had no word concerning
the movement, nor has the local representa-
tive OF the Baltimore & Ohio road.
Thirty million bushels of corn at nifty
six pounds per bushel would be $50 900, OOO
pounds, which. put in cars of $1,000 pounds
capacity, would be 2S,OOO cars. and then in
trains Of seventy cars each would make 400
trains. Allowing 3,oS5 feet per train, this
string OF cars would stretch 28S miles long.
Figuring that % per cent Of the corn
raised in Nebraska is shipped out of the
state, II the corn was all taken from Ne
braska, the Milwaukee would haul half OF
the available corn supply One railroad
official said there was nothing especially
low in the rate figuring on Baltimore. The
rate to Baltimore after the first of the
year, according to the new schedule will
be 22ls cents, which will give IN cents for
the ocean. which 10 not 30 low. The rate on
-four At present TO Liverpool from Omaha
is 33lh cents
Another railroad man said the Milwaukee
did not have power TO haul half that corn.

Has Opened.

Cadet Taylor of the Putnam company re-
Gently has returned from a trip TO Lyman
county, South Dakota, which is on the new
Milwaukee extension under construction be-
tween Chamberlain and Rapid City. The
country through which this road passes is
part OF an old Sioux reservation and has
been held back from settlement for lack of
railroad facilities and because the big cat

said
THE Milwaukee has opened up SPLEEN
did country and many settlers are nocking
into the great White river valley. The
soil is fertile and what little farming has
been done shows that wheat will yield
eighteen to twenty-four bushels per acre,
oats sixty to seventy-five and corn thirty
TO forty bushels. The native grasses are
rich buffalo and salt grass. and alfalfa
promises well

night at Chamberlain for lack of eating
and sleeping accommodations at PreshO.
Sixty miles west homcsteads are still avail

The electric light plant, and mill also, at
Chamberlain are being operated wholly
with artesian water power, seventy-horse
power being developed. Further north the
Northwestern is building line from Pierre

quarter today that the powers, after care
fully examining the sultan's latest counter
proposals, have decided to reject them and
actively resume the naval demonstration

the conclusion that the propositions were
