MILWAUKEE To THE COAST
Official Route Confirms Rumor that Harri-
man Controls the Road
LINES IN DIRECT COMPETITION TO HILL
Now Regarded as Certain Union Pm
cific MRgnnte Has Seized This
Whip AS Another weapon
on His Rival.

The persistent rumor that Hartman has
gained control of the Milwaukee RAILROAD
nnds new confirmation, it is believed, in
the route of the Milwaukee's extension to
the Pacific coast, the extremity OF which,
west of Butte, has been made known for
the first time officially in a descriptive map
sent out from headquarters in Chicago.
This route certainly tends to indicate that
whoever controls the Milwaukee is an arch
rival of Hill and is building a line with
the prime purpose of competing with
Hill for the great transcontinental
traffic which he has been enjoying over his
Great Northern and Northern Pacific And
the logical conclusion is that whoever is
Hartman.
The Milwaukee gives out the official state
ment that if plans carry the line to Butte
will be completed by January 1, 1908, and
20 the coast a year later.
That the Milwaukee and the Hartman
interests are closely allied is con-
ceded in most circles but because of the
newly enacted laws which make railroads
preserve their separate identities, the cor
porations will be held entirely distinct and
may be able to work in harmony against
their common enemy, Mr.. Hill.
The new road is called the Pacific coast
extension of the Milwaukee and starts at
Glenham, s. D., eighty-nine miles west of
Aberdeen and eight miles east of Evarts,
S. D., the present crossing of the Missouri
river An enormous bridge will be built
across the Missouri at this point by the
bridge department of the Milwaukee rail-
road.

He said the fight started on the

the lioness jumped onto the deer,
which turned and fought the lioness
with its antlers and hoofs. They
rolled down the hillside into gulch,
breaking down oak trees as they
fought. The battle did not last a great
while, as the lioness was much the
stronger The deer was badly clawed
and chewed and soon fell from loss Of
blood.
