PLANS A NEW BRIDGE.
Milwaukee Will Replace Pontoon at
Chamberlain Next Sprinu,


Chamberlain Next Spring.
Superintendent Collins OF the Iowa
e Minnesota division of the Milwau-
kee, arrived at Chamberlain to inspect
the pontoon bridge now used by the
Milwaukee for its service west of here
The bridge cost about $4,000 and in
time will be replaced by steel struct-
ure costing more than $1,000, 200.
Meantime, the company expects to use
the bridge until traffic can be built
lp and the road extended farther than
it has now been built. The company
expects to lose 1900 to 1900 feet Of
the bridge this spring, but is in a posi-
ton to replace 1t in two days time If
the ice and foods should take 1t out.
When the spring opens, the company
viii build iorty miles more of line
west of Chamberlain.
The open winter has greatly facili-
tated the construction of the line.
When the track-laying begins In the
spring the work will go on rapidly to
completion. The new main line OF the
Milwaukee to the coast will not, much
to the regret of Chamberlain's cft,-
zens, pass through here, but will 60
through Aberdeen to Minneapolis. The
company regards this recent move as
highly necessary to protect its inter-
ests and hopes to complete the road
within three years. though nothing be-
yond surveys have yet been done.

A thorough investigator of the
car shortage that has prevailed in
South Dakota for several weeks occu-
pied the attention of the board of rail-
road commissioners while on an off,
cial trip to the big terminal points.
Prior to the boards departure num-
erous complaints had been made of
alleged discrimination in the distribu-
ton of empty cars, and recently the
Tri-State Grain Dealers association
filed a complaint in which 1t was
charged, among other things, that the
railroad companies were purposely
Withholding cars from the elevator
men Of South Dakota. In view OF the
nature and number of the complaints
the railroad commissioners deemed 1t
best to investigate the matter.
st. Paul was first visited. There
the commissioners called on the off,
cials OF the Omaha railroad. But few
complaints had been made from points
On this road, and these, it was ex-
planned, were due to the fact that cars
loaded at points ON the Omaha road
for points on other roads were retain
Cd by the other roads, which, owing to
the heavy demand for cars, were will
ing to pay the per diem charge for
their use and kept the cars as long as
possible These cars are now being
returned to the Omaha road and no
further shortages are expected on that
line.

Farmers In South Dakota See Danger
In Stock.
An epidemic of rabies among the
farm animals in the vicinity of Hecla
is feared as the result of a mad dog
which has been running through the
country. A cow belonging to G. H.
Lamport went mad yesterday.
The first symptoms OF the disease
were noticed by the family of Mr..
Barton, who lives on the place. The
COW was seen chasing other animals
and bunting and tearing about in its
mad Ats. Mr.. Lamport was notified
