CAR SHORTAGE is
DENIED BY OFFICIALS

Minneapolis, Mimi, Dec. 1a.-These
two statements are issued regarding.
the alleged car shortage and its bear
ing upon the North Dakota Minnesota
storm privations:
Vice President Pennington, of the
Minneapolis. st. Paul aud Sault Ste:
.pfscre is no Blockade of freight or
shortage of cars on our lines west OF
minneapolis, except what is due to bad
billiards in the last few days.
President Harris, of the Burlington:
I'VE viii endeavor to comply and
furnish prompt and satisfactory service
and will be much pleased to have any
suggestions. There has been no gen
eral or protracted shortage of cars or
congestion of traffic on the Burlington,
though it is true thai every year there
is some car shortage and some con-
gestiGn due to the fact that shippers,
Especially of coal, have little or no pro-
vision in the way of storage and always
decline to anticipate their orders, con-
.Gequently there is a general demand
for coal at the first cold weather.
we have been able TO transport coal
Tor all our customers with reasonable
p~ronlptness and TO do something in tho
way of furnishing cars and transports
ing coal foli other railroads."

CLEAN YARDS.
ANTICIPATING PROBE

Chicago, Dec. 19.-Stirred to activity
by the threatened investigation the
Chicago railroads are making a Hur-
culean effort to clean up the yards and
relieve the car shortage. Increased
forces are carrying on the biggest
housecleaning in years.
Empty Cars idle.
Kansas City, Mo-, Dec. 1.-THE Jour-
nal says:
"A systematic inspection Of the ter
aminaf railroad yards here shows that
there are 5000 empty freight cars
standing idle in the Kansas City yards
because the railroads have not suffi-
lcient motive power to move them.
There are not less than 1000 loaded
cars standing in the yards here and
the dates of loading some of them
showed that they had been ready to
move for two weeks. There is no short
age of cars here, but a shortage of en-
sgines.
AT Sedalia, Mo-, there are Isl empty
freight cars by actual count and at
Springfield there are 379. AT Topeka,
Kan, there are more than 800 empty
cars in the yards; at Wichita about 200,
and at Hutchinson about so cars"

VALUE OF COAL OIL
LANDS HARD TO Elk,

Washington, d. c., Dec. 19.-Secre-
,tary Hitchcock added his views to those.
which have been gathered in Indian,
Territory by the special senate commit
tee authorized to investigate the prop
erty rights Inc citizenship of the 1--WE
civilized tribes. !
Considerable time was devoted in an,
ttendeayor to arrive at the value of the
coal lands of these tribes, which has
been ~variously estimated at from SIS
1000, 900 to between four and five billions
of dollars.
1t was stated that application was ex-.
pected to be made to the government
for the purchase of these lands by the
NEW state of Oklahoma.
The secretary was entirely unable to-
place a value on h lands. The geo
logical survey had estimated the de-
deposits to contain nearly three billion,
tons OF coal, while the government min
ing lnspectorfor the territory placed the
amount at a billion and a quarter tons.
The secretary regarded the latter es-
innate as more nearly correct. He add
ed that a fair price for the mineral
rights might be arrived at upon the
basis of the royalty of s cents a ton,
the amount the Indians now receive
under the coal land leases. The secre-
tary expressed himself against any
present sale of the coal lands. saving
he believed it would be impossible to
get anything like a fair price for them
IN view OF the several unsuccessful Ell
forts his department had made in that
connection.
Senator B~randegee remarked that he
had heard $4,000. 00o, COO was to be Of
fered for the lands.
II would accept that offer in a wink"
responded Mr.. Hitchcock.

BANK OF ENGLAND
RAISES DISCOUNT RATE.

London, Oct, 19.-The Bank of
England raised the discount rate to
six per cent this morning. Changes
in the discount rate of the bank on
any day except Thursday have been
very few since Nov. 7th, 1890, just
before the Barring failure. A relapse
in American exchange, indicating a
renewal of the demand for gold and
the probability of Withdrawals of me-
tai for Egypt seem to have contrib
uted to the action taken by the
bank.
The sum of $5,0OO,OOO in gold
leaving the bank today is believed
to be destined for Egypt, while finan-
cial circles anticipate very large pur
chases on behalf of the United States
of whether the rate of
exchange renders the transaction
profitable or not. Reports are also
current that the Bank~of Germany is
conducting a large bullion movement
for the Russian account, while Arg
entina is in the market as a purcn-
aser of gold, Consols for money de-
clined ZIG to 85A after the announce

Governor Lanham has been appealed

was occupied by the remaining juror
who had stood out in explaining his
position and surrender to the ma
