MUCH ON NORTH BANK
ROAD.
Construction of the Line to be Prose-
cuted With Haste-BurIngto
Reaching Out.

According to a statement given out
at St. Paul by one of the high off,
cials of the Hill railway interests, it
has been definitely decided lnat the
extension of the Northern Pacific
river between Kennewick and VAN
couver will be prosecuted with all
haste, so that the line will be in opera
ton within a year.
By this time next year the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific expect
to be in Portland direct. 1t has never
been definitely known how much the
the new extension will cost, but from
authoritative sources it is learned that
the Northern Pacific Company will
invest about $10,000,000 in the con-
struction of this important branch.
The official in touch with the work
on the coast said:
1.-The line will be a water grade line
and will make the Great Northern
and Northern Pacific between the east
and the west shorter than any other
of the lines between the east and the
west. 1t will be thoroughly con-
structed line, with very light curva-
lures, practically on a level and laid
with heavy rails. The line will be es-
pecially capable of handling expedite
ously a large volume of traffic."
Burlington Will Extend.
General Manager Holdredge of the
Burlington road, has officially an
nounced that the Burlington will at
once begin the construction of 500
miles of road to extend it lines to
Salt Lake City. The line will start
from a point near Broken Bow, New,
and run to Bridgeport. Neb., where
it will connect with the Guernsey,
Wyo., line. Work on a line from
Guernsey to Salt Lake City will
start simultaneously with that of the
Broken Bow Bridgeport cutoff
Amended articles Of the Burlington
road were filed with the county clerk
by General Manager Holdredge
at Omaha today to cover the
new extension, which will be
part of the Nebraska, Wyoming
& Western railroad, which is an in
tegral part of the Burlington system.
The branch from Bridgeport eastward
to the main line will be about 25O
miles in length and the line from
Guernsey to Salt Lake City $50 miles
long.

Deny That Federal Courts Have
Jurisdiction
UNITED STATES LAW IS DEFECTIVE
Interstate Commerce Act Does Not
Provide for Punishment Of Its
Violators.

CHICAGO, Ills, Oct. 23.-All the in
dicted packers entered pleas this
morning denying the jurisdiction of
the court. The defendants collective
ly pleaded not guilty. Their attor-
neys claim that the United States
courts lack jurisdiction, as there is no
law providing for conviction and pun
ishment for alleged violations Of the
interstate commerce act. They have
asked that all be dismissed from GUS
tOdy.
The packers declare that the gov
ernment exhausted it's remedies when
it secured an injunction under the an
ti-trust law and that the election Of
that remedy precludes the legality Of
proceedings against them criminally.
The defendants filed as part of their
plea the report of Commissioner Car
field, which they declare shows that
no unlawful act was committed in
restraint of trade.

second degree as charged in the orig
inaI information. The plea was taken

der in the first degree.
