THE Milwaukee saves this by max
ing q tunnel at an elevation soe

secure q grade far better than was
first anticipated. As this will be the
main line OF the Milwaukee, 1t could
not afford TO have as steep grade a. the
Northern Pacific branch line, with
light freight traffic, and the Milwau-
kee expects to handle heavy freight
tERfac to and from the Pacific coast.
At Iron mountain the elevation
OF the summit was nearly 600O feet,
and the height Of the proposed tunnel
there was between 5000 and $500
feet, so by coming to Saltese a re-
duction of over 1000 feet has been
made. 1t is assured that the route
down the st. Joe will be adopted, az
the parties have been withdrawn from
there and are now surveying the
route beween Saltese and Missoula,

nearly as rough as at Iron mountain,

up here which would have been side

this Sd day of February, 1905, to s.
G. Godlove and s. A. Hindman by
F. W. Hunt, in accordance with the
terms of said escrow agreement and
said agreement of November 3, 1905,
you are hereby instructed to hold
siad amount until receivers receipt
in application for patent of said
Buffalo claim has been issued.
''F. W. HUNT. "
On the 18th day Of October, 1905,
receivers receipt in patent proceed
ings issued to Hindman and Godlove
and was presented to plaintiff and af-
forwards filed with the escrow papers
and payment demanded.
Plaintiff resisted on the theory that
his failure TO pay into the bank the
costs Of patent as we'll as the pur-
chase money was a rejection of the
option and the tender of new ofEer.
The bank paid the purchase money
to Godlove and Hindman and Hunt
sued the bank to recover the $1,000.
Godlove and Hindman interviewed
and sued Hunt for the costs OF pa
tent. Judge Stewart rendered iudg-
ment against plaintiff on both claims
and on appeal the supreme court in a
very lengthy opinion by Justice Sui
livan, in which the other judges con-
cur, holds that all the writings
should be construed together as
one contract; that the payment Of the
$1,000 was an election to purchase
and that the consent of interveners
for bis sum to remain in the bank,
pending procurement Of patent, was
not a waiver Of performance by inter
veners and that ON filing Of the re-
ceiver's receipt with the bank, IL was
justified in paying out the money to
interveners, also that the intervenors
are entitled to recover from plaintiff
the cost Of procuring patent.

Definite Location of Milwaukee
Line

Spokane, Wash, Sept. s.-That
the Chicago, Milwaukee 4 st. Paul
railway has finally decided ON cross
ing the Bitter Root mountains at
Saltese, Mont. was confirmed by two
members Of one Of the survey crews
who have been working In the Bitter
Root mountains for about a year.
They stated yesterday:
1--WE moved from the summit at
Iron mountain about the end of July,
and since then we have been at Sal
tese. 1t Is possible to get far bet
ter grade at this point than has yet
been found In all the surveys that
the road has made OF these noun
tains. When the parties first moved
to Saltese preliminary surveys were
begun ON q basis of 2 per cent
grade. This 1t was very easy to get,
and then the grade was reduced to
is per cent, with IT per cent
compensation for curvature, and re-
Gently it has been found possible TO
reduce this to IL per cent grade.
The curvature will be less than 10
degrees.
"In order to get this grade, the
engineers have decided to make a
tunnel 5000 feet long through the
summit southwest of Saltese. The
Northern Pacific goes over the top Of
the summit, at an elevation OF about
1900 feet, but this necessitates a
steep grade and a great deal Of curva-
