New Ulm News: The failure of
Gus. Widell, or rather the Widell-
Finley company of contractors in
Mankato, though of interest in New
Ulm, will have no effect here, as
Widell's connection with the New
Ulm Stone company, owners and
operators of the Redstone quarries
and stone crushers, does not cover
a large enough interest to affect the
New Ulm company. The Widell-
Finley company have asked for a
receiver. Widell is large stone
quarry owner in Mankato, and has
been very successful, but his COM
pany the past year or more has
taken large contracts in distant
states, which required larger capital
than they could command; and it
is believed that if given time they
will come out ahead.
The fact that the H. & D. division
Of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St.
Paul railway is to be a part of a
through line to the Pacific coast,
will make it necessary that changes
in the line be made. They are now
at work, or have been, surveying
for new line between Montevideo
and Watson, so as to avoid the Wat
son hill. We have heard it rumored
the line will leave the present track
below Hawk Creek, and, reaching
the Minnesota river valley by a
ravine some miles east, come up the
river bottom past Minnesota Falls.
The company is now at work
Strengthening the track and getting
ready to put in a double track be-
tween St. Paul and Winona. When
this line becomes a part of a through
line from Chicago to the coast there
will be general overhauling of the
service, and always for the better.
The road cannot be converted into
a coast line in a day or a month,
but it is coming. The latest in
reference to the extension of the
road is the following dispatch from
Helena, Montana, under date Of Feb.
18th: President A. J. Earring of
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railway, in an interview at Kansas
City, Mo-, made the definite an
nouncement that the route of the
proposed new line from Seattle east
ward would be through the Cascade
mountains, the Lolo pass, Anaconda,
Butte, Helena and Miles City. ''The
line has been definitely located"
said President Earring, "the con-
struction is now under way and
ground for terminal facilities has
been secured in Seattle"
