THE HILL ROADS,
Three Lines to be Merged Into One
Vast System.

Omaha, Nov 29.-The Bee says to-
day: Within one week the equity
which the Northern Pacific now holds
in the Burlington will pass into the
hands of the Great Northern, and with
in ten days the Burlington and Great
Northern will be merged into one vast
system, with James J. Hill in control.
This statement was made today by
man close to the official family of
the Hill roads, who has just returned
from Chicago, where the intricate op-
erations Of this gigantic transaction
are now being perfected. He makes
the statement without reservation.
So far as the lines of track of the
Great Northern, Northern Pacific and
burlington are concerned these three
roads lack but one little link now Of
being in fact one great system. When
the short cut from Billings to Great
Falls, Mont, is completed the unifica-
ton will be contaminated. The west
ern terminus of the Burlington is Bill
ings, where it meets the Northern
Pacific.
A line has been in course of con-
struction for some time from Billings
to Great Falls, where the Great North
ern runs on its way to the coast. This
line will soon be finished, and when
it is the three great railroads will be
Joined and merged practically into one
vast system, but, the federal govern
ment Directing, the Northern Pacific
will not be named in the union.

School Tax Suit.

The state, on the relation of John
D. Waite, brought suit in the district
court today against Frank ]. Hazen
as county clerk and recorder. 1t is
set out in the complaint that on April
Is. 1899, school district No. 8, of this
county. issued and sold bonds to the
amount of $4,000, for the purpose Of
building and eQuipping a school house,
the relator being an owner of per.
sOnal property in the district and
tax payer at the time; that later the
boundaries of the district were
changed and large portions of the dis
trict cut off; that the relator has de-
manded of the clerk and recorder
that he extend the taxes certified by
the board of school trustees for the
district, and levied by the county
commissioners against the property
in the district to the boundaries of the
district before they were changed;
that by reason of the defendants re-
fusal to do SO the taxes of the relator
have been materially increased while
that portion of the district cut OF
has escaped paying it's just proportion
of such tax. The relator asks for writ
of mandate requiring the defendant
to extend the taxes to all property
within the district as it originally ex-
listed at the time the bonds were is
sued, or to show cause why he should
not do so.

THE FRISCO oRAFTERs.
Stole a Million Dollars Of the Relief
Money,


San Francisco, Cal, Nov. 29.-The
Chronicle publishes a story declaring
that the present prosecution of the
grafters of San Francisco is largely
the result of President Roosevelt's in
dignation on hearing that the Official
grafters of the city had stolen 81,
100000 in cash from the funds that
were contributed for the sufferers in
the disaster of last April.
1t is said that the president has had
100 of the best secret service men
working among the postoffices of the
United States tracing the money or
ders that were sent here for the suf-
ferers. While this investigation has
been going on the government has
been able to get no adequate explana.
ton as to what was done with the
money.
The Chronicle article declares that
President Roosevelt is behind the
prosecution of the grafters of San
Francisco, and that the main object
in setting former Secret Service Ag.
ent Burns and other federal detectives
at work here was to procure evidence
against several leading city officers
who have appropriated upward of ST.
100000 of relief funds contributed to
aid San Francisco earthquake and fire
sufferers from all parts Of the coun-
try.
So indignant was President Roose-
welt on hearing Of the loss of the re-
lief funds that he said he would bring
the offenders from the uttermost parts
of the earth should they make their
temporary escape.
In the first days following the fire
in San Francisco relief money was
sent by postal order and by inclosing
paper money in envelopes and other
packages. 1t is said amounts ranging
from so cents to hundreds of dollars
were sent in this way. That but com.
paratively a small sum reached the
Red Cross or citizens relief commit
tee is shown by records of these bod
les.
1t is estimated that contributions
were sent through 10000 pOstoffices
and also considerable sums through
express companies. The interest Of
President Roosevelt and the fedora
authorities in this affair has been sc
great that the president is credited
with the statement that the govern
ment would spend $1,000.00O if neces
1 sary to unearth and bring the crimi
, nails to justice.
l The crime of forgery is said to be
included in the offense of the raid
ers of the relief contributions. There
! are those who place the total of the
stealings at $1,o00,000
