CONTRACT HAS
BEEN AWARDED
Will Be O1icially Announced Within a
Few Days.
FROM CULDESAC TO GRANGEVILLE
Erickson g. Peterson Said to
Have First 20 Miles.

A message from the Lewiston
Tribune yesterday conveyed the
glad news to the people of Grange.
vile that the contract for the con
struction of the Northern Pacific
railroad from Culdesac to this city
had been let. Their information
came direct from John P. Vollmer,
a heavy stockholder in the road,
who is now in Seattle and who
wired the good news to the Trib-
une, authorizing it's publication.
1t further stated that it would be
officially announced this week as
soon as President Elliot reached
st. Paul.
Mr.. Vollmer did not state who
had received the contract, but it is
learned from reliable sources that
Erickson & Peterson, who are
building the Riparia line, secured
the first twenty miles. This will
extend from Culdesac to Ferdinand
and includes all of the heavy rock
work. The bulk of their heavy
work on the Riparia road is prac.
tically completed and they would
naturally be in a position to put
a force of men at work on the new
contract at an early date.
Should work be commenced a,
once it is believed that the road
can easily be completed this year
and possibly in time to move the
fall crops.
The electric road is also taking
on new life and representative OF
Mr.. Cowperthwait is now in Lew.
iston and says the road will be
built at once. There is reason to
believe the truthfulness of this
report as it is known that the
parties having largest interests in
the electric line have in the last
week secured options and bonded
over 200 acres of land adjoining
this city.
Three.fourths of a mile Of stee
was laid yesterday on the Riparis
line and work on the Lewiston
bridge and the entire line is being
rushed fast as possible, presum
, ably to take up the work at this en'
!, soon as they complete sections OF
: Riparia road.
The Milwaukee is surveying thei
q line above the road now bein
!. built from Riparia to Lewiston AM
!. will follow the north bank OF Snak
1 river and Columbia to the sea.

GAIN IN CAR FAMINE.
Eastern Roads Said to Profit at Vests
EXPENSE

At the conclusion Of the inquiry into
the question of the freight car short
age in the west before C. A. Prouty.
interstate commerce commissioner.
which began in st. Louis and ended
ut Kansas City Friday night, the COM
missioner, shippers and the represent
atives Of the railroads agreed that all
parties concerned would be greatly
benefited and present conditions re-
lieved II free interchange of cars
among railroad companies could be
brought about The solution was first
suggested by shippers was approved
by Commissioner Prouty and was in
dorsed by the railroad representatives
when they were given an opportunity
to state their side OF the case.
1t is understood that western rail-
way lines generally favor a free inter-
change of freight cars, but that eastern
roads have refused to enter into such
an arrangement. The reason for this
roads are profting by present condi-
lions and are using many thousand
cars belonging to western roads, and
their own equipment as we'll, causing a
serious shortage to exist in the west
and south. Western lines have been
forced to issue an order that such cars
as they have left are not to leave their
own respective tracks.
After the hearing had adjourned
Commissioner Prouty said:
IAN interchange Of cars by all the
railroads would do away with much OF
the shipping trouble. And, then, this
country Is a long way from New York.
Owners OF railways are not thoroughly
familiar with conditions here. They
are inclined to make money first and
consider the public service later"

IN NORTH DAKOTA.
Rescuers Beat Fire TO Pinioned VIC
Tins and All Injured Are Taken
Out-Many Of the Dead and Injured
Were Holiday Excursionlsts.

Loaded to it's full capacity with peo-
pie going to their homes in the east to
spend the Christmas holidays, the
southbound train on the Minneapolis,
ST. Paul and Sault ste. Marie crashed
into switch engine In the west end OF
the railroad yards at Enderlin, N. d.,
at 2:10 o'clock Sunday morning.
Eight men were killed outright and
one has since died OF injuries. Thir-
ty-seven were seriously injured and
It is likely that the death list will be
added to.
All of the fatalities occurred in the
smoking car, which was completely
telescoped by the baggage car and on
ly two OF the occupants of this car es-
capped injury. The car was crowded
and as the whistle had just sounded
for Enderlin almost everyone was on
his feet when the crash came and the
dead and wounded were piled into a
great heap with the wreckage.
A rescue party soon was formed and
the work OF taking out the dead and
ued throughout the night. The little
hospital was soon crowded with those
hurt and the hotels were made into
emergency hospitals where the wound
ed were cared for. There were but
four physicians In Enderlin, and a
special train with physicians and
nurses was hastily made up at Valley
City and rushed to the scene OF the
wreck
The wreckage took fire from the
overturned cars End there was a race
between the passengers and the flames
BY almost superhuman means the un-
injured were enabled to fight off the
flames until the injured were removed,
when the cars were allowed to burn.
Only few passengers in the day
coaches were injured and in the sleep
ers. none of which left the track.
there were no casualties.

Mother Badly Burned When Trying to.
SAKE Life of Child.


The 14-months-old child of Mr.. and
Mrs. Alfred Stavig, of Nutley, few
miles north of Webster, was burned to
death in a fire that nearly destroyed
the Stavig home. Mrs. Stavig was
badly burned while attempting to res
cue the child and her condition is re-
ported as serious
Mrs. Stavig started fire in the
kitchen stove with the aid of straw,
and leaving it a few moments while
she went to the barn, she was horri-
fed to hear the screams of the child
and to see flames leaping through the
kitchen window. The fire had, in some
manner, communicated with bundle
Of straw that had been left near the
stove and a few minutes later the
whole room was in flames. The child
was playing on the floor and the
mother ran into the room regardless of
the danger, but her clothing instantly
took fire Mr.. Stavig arrived just in
time to save her from being burned
to death, carrying her out of the
house and rolling her in a snow bank.
1t was impossible to save the child.
Mr.. Stavig, assisted by farm hands
and neighbors, finally succeeded in ex'
tinguishing the flames.

hunting experience a few days ago.
They were driving across the prairie in
a buggy while hunting and saw wolf,
