BOLD ATTEMPT TO
WRECK TRAIN FAILS.
by Washout Delay-Local Train
Narrowly Escapes.

Tomah, Wis, April 3.-[Special IA
bold attempt was made last night to
wreck a passenger train on the Valley
division near Irma, eight railroad ties
being piled upon the track.
Passenger train No. 2, in charge of
Conductor Z. Hollinshead and Engineer
Phil Thompson, was returning to iona
hawk on account of q washout near
Brokaw. A few miles this side of Irma
station the train ran onto eight railroad
ties piled upon the rails. Fortunately
the train was not under full speed, and
thus an accident was averted. After
some difficulty the ties were removed and
the train came on to Tomahawk
1t is probable that the persons who
placed the ties on the track intended to
derall the northbound passenger No. 5,
which is due in Tomahawk at 500 p. m.
Owing to the washout this train was I'M
able to get through, and No. 2, returning

For over two years my little baby
girl suffered with a raw, itching and

rest. We tried several doctors, but
without success. Unless we kept her

 From all appearances the small bug PTS are pretty well loaded by this tiL.a and no doubt the market will be quiet uLtil the larger buyers start. and we can then figure on a perma- nent advance Calumet & Arizona was offered at S9S, and few shares were picked up at that price. Calu- met < Pittsburg eased off just enough today to allow an asked price. and the stock was bought for SS0 without trouble. Sales in Lake Superior & Pittsburg were made at s35.50, while Pittsbure & Duluth held al SIG with plenty of stock offered, but nothing could be had under $1G.
 Sales were made in Junction al s7o. and considerable was offered at that price From all appearances of last weeks market il did not seem that Junction would come back to $7O. but sales were made today al that figure. 1t is somewhat strange that in the face of reorganization this stock should recede instead Of advancing. and especially when the time is s) Knitted T. is only a month and a balf before Junction will be a mining l-mIany. and if Junction follows the curse of the other development com p1nies there should be some lively trading between now and that time.
