GREAT RAILWAY SYSTEMS
STRUGGLE FOR SAME ROUTE

According to recent Chicago dis
patches the Morgan-Hill interests, rep.
resented by the Great Northern and
Northern Pacific roads, and the Stand
ard Oil interests, represented by the
'Chiago, Milwaukee 4 St. Paul road
have locked horns in a desperate battle
for possession of rich territory in the
Pacific and British Northwest.
The st. Paul road has made an at
tack upon Hill in one of his greatest
treasure st%orehouses, the Crows Nest
Pass country. Three surveying par
ties for the Great Northern and four
for the st. Paul are racing n another
for the choice of location for a line OF
railroad to extend from Missoula,
Mont, to Fernie, B. c., a distance OF
$50 miles.
From all appearances, the st. Paul
has executed a flank movement upon
the Hill forces and has all the best OF
the ace in the struggle for location in
this tonnage producing territory. The
prize for which the two roads are con
tending is the enormous tonnage OF
coal and coke which originates in the
Crows Nest Pass country at Fernie and
Whereabouts.
So eager is the st. Paul to capture
the lions share of this tonnage, and SC
determined is James j. Hill to defend
his preserves that it is almost certain
that two lines of railroad will be built,
paralleling each other all the way from
Missoula to Fernie. No expense is
spared on either line, and every avail
able man is hired by one or the other
of the outfits.

board the Samson took visible shape;
but all the inquiries that were made
resulted In nothing.
Some six months later news filtered
through to the admiralty that some ap-

Samson had been found floating In the
Arctic ocean,. Aching hearts in Eng
land began to despair. Then another
interval Of Silence. Three years had
passed since the Samson steamed away,
and not a sign Of life from Capt. Har-

was flashed from America that lone
officer and thirteen lei Of Capt. Har-
vey's expedition had been landed In
New York"
Capt. Harvey had died only a few
weeks before the remnant Of the crew
had been picked up, and he had left
papers containing a full record of the
discoveries, disasters, and sufferings OF
the expedition.
These papers showed that the men,
as a whole, had behaved splendidly
but In the later stages Of the expedi-
ton. when Capt. Harvey had his leg
broken, and was otherwise incapaci.
tated, the whole of the duties fell upon
the fourth officer, Hugh A~llistaire, who

expedition to the place where they had
been picked up.

From the New York Times.
 Prof von Bollinger, who has held the chair of pathology at the University of Munich for more than 20 years, and who is again rector of the university for an other year. recently delivered an address which has stirred up the physicians of Germany Instead of reading an essay on some scientific subject at his installa- ton, he talked about doctors fees.
 Tt is a masterpiece of the authors ," says the New York Medical Journal, 'who otherwise very seldom appears be- fore the public. He shows that in Leipzig the visit of a physician is paid for by two-thirds of the inhabitants with an amount which Is from one-half to two- thirds of the minimum charge allowed the physicians by the Prussian law of 1915. It will threfore be seen that the Income of the physician has in reality greatly decreased, for the purchasing power of money has become less, the cost of living has much increased, and the present expenditure of time and money for a medical education can absolutely not be reckoned as on par with that of 100 years ago.
 ITO better this condition has been tho aim of the German Medical association for the last ten years under the able lead ership of Professor Lobker of Bochum.

6TOCK MARKET IS
 VERY IRREGULAR Strength of Steel Shares Is Still Leading Feature NEW RECORDS ARE MADE Bear Campaign Against United States Steel Has About Played Out and
 Rumors of Hartman Are
 of No Effect.
NEW RECORDS ARE MADE
BY THOMAS c. sHoTwELL.

New York, June 12.-(Special)- )-Strength of the Steel shares was the feature of trading in Wall street today. The bank statement showed decrease in surplus reserves of above million dollars and an increase in loans of nearly $19,0Oo,0oo. Deposits increased more than $22,000,0 GOO and specie but little more than s40OO,000.
 Trading was very irregular and at times the list was inclined to be heavy. An attempt was made to break the market with report from Paris regarding E. H. Harriman's health. Wall street learned several weeks ago where the news re- garding Harrimans desperate illness orig mated. It had no effect on the market. The bear campaign against Steel has now been whittled down to a theory that listing of the stock may be delayed for several months in Paris, but even the bears admit that 1t will ultimately be put on the bourse. The delay, there fore ceases to be an argument against the stock because Paris is already trad ing in it by telephone with London.
 The day was not without it's new higher records, chief among these being Ontario and Western, General Electric and Wa bash preferred The market closed strong and active with the large short interest fanxiously looking for cover.
 Number of shares sold today 3S7, 595, against 184.776 year ago. Par value of bonds sold today $2,S4S,OOO. against $1, ,299, 900 a year ago.
 Stocks were firm on the curb market today under leadership of LaRose, which made a new high record. La Union was another strong feature and Standard Oil was very strong at the high figure of 6s4 All of the porphyry coppersNwere active and strong One of the mysterious features of the market was the weakness of Daisy, which is selling around B, although the company is earning at the rate of more than 30 per cent on the market price of the stock.

 Has anybody, for instance, ever rivaled the great catch of salmon made by the tenth Lord Home in April, 1795? c. c. Harrington. who tells the story says:
 Tt was a rainy day with an east wind. and Lord Home caught S8 salmon. weighing from to 36 pounds Apart from the amazing luck of the day. the fact Is memorable for the mere powers of endurance displayed. Lord Home used to fish with short rod-he thought IS feet was the best length for a salmon rod-and a thick hair line, so that the actual exertion of casting would not have been so great as 1t would be with a 17-foot or an 1S-foot rod.

 Going on to shooting has anybody ever beaten the record of the second Lord Malmesbury? He kept a memorandum of every shot he fired for 40 years, end ing with the year 1S40. He fired 54,9S7 chots, killed 3S,454 head of game, and missed 16633 times; besides that he call culated the distance which he walked, which would do credit to hard-worked postman. He was out, taking one day with another, four hours day for 90 days in the year, but how many men who walk even 30 days keep a record of every cartridge fired-more, for Lord Malmes- bury even noted down every kind of game that he fired at?''
 Then there is the extraordinary record inmarksmanship of Horatio Ross. who In a pigeon match with Lord Macdonald gave five yards and then won the match with total of 52 pigeons out of 5S shots at 35 yards. Another extraordinary feat not frequently performed was that he would go out and kill as many as 20 swallows before breakfast. It was Ross who offered to walk anybody to London for 800 pounds, and nobody would accept the challenge.
