London.-The climax of the Suffrag-

night when an enormous mob hemmed

more than three hours the crowd scuf-

The whole police force, together
with cavalry, infantry and marines
numbering more than 5000, was kept
busy in restraining the pushing, strug-

Bonds in the treasury. ..... 75,O0O,O0O
The Colorado & Southern will in the
near future begin spending millions to
complete 800 miles of new track and
carry out long cherished plans for a
north and south trunk line from Mon
tana to the Gulf of Mexico which will
gather enormous traffic from the East
and West roads and send it through
Galveston to the worlds markets.
This has been the ambition of Pres
ident Frank Trumbull ever since he
took control eleven years ago and
cemented the disjointed branches into
a system which was one of two roads
in the country to increase its net re-
ceipts during the last panic year.
The new road necessary to complete
the system has all been surveyed dur
ing the past year ana with plenty Of
reserves in the treasury and the bal
ance OF the system pilng up a reserve
fund, 1t needs only the order to begin
grading.
The new track will be forty miles be-
tween Fort Collins and Cheyenne and
$50 miles between Orin Junction, the
present northern terminus of the road,
and Forsyth, Mont, a large town on
the Northern Pacific road.
The new Fort Collins Cheyenne divis-
ion will run through fine farming
country for half it's length and is ex.
pected to earn more than interest on
the cost. The new track from Orin
north will traverse a virgin country
of vast resources and much of which
is susceptible Of irrigation and CONVEX
sion into homes for thousands. 1t will
run through the headwaters of the
Belle Fourche river, will run into the
beautiful valley of She Powder river
and will cross the valleys of the
Tongue and Rosebud rivers on it's way
into central Montana. This territory
is the very heart of the Wyoming cat
tie ranges and the soil for farming is
similar to the famous valley of the Big
Horn, which is unfolding an empire
under the touch of water and transDor-
tation facilities.
Three million dollars worth of bonds
for the initial expense will be sold at
once. Twenty-Five million dollars re-
ceived from the sale of bonds has been
spent in completing the southern end
