RAIL
Milwaukee Will do Some Work on the
Fox Ridge Grade This Fall

Pierre-4h he railroad situation at
present looks like the closing up Of all
extension work until spring next
year. While it is announced that the
Minneapolis & st. Louis company will
get some Of the construction work
done on their line between here and
Aberdeen before winter closes down,
there is a report from Aberdeen that
the whole proposition has gone over
until next year. But regardless or
that report the people who are hand
.ing the proposition from this end OF
the lire are confident that the work
will be commenced within a few days,
and a part of the track laid Oh the old
grade this fall.
Incidentally, with the possibil ties
of that line in the way Of building,
a mortgage was filed with the Sc re-
tary OF state Saturday for a ~ten-year
loan of $3.50, 900 to the Minneapolis o.
st. Louis Railway company, by the
Pennsylvania company, the loan Ee-
ing for the purchase of new eluip-
ment. Whether the new equipment has
anything to do with possible extern
sion work in Dakota this fall is not
known.
The Northwestern road has finished
it's grad ng work on its Dallas extern
sion as far as Winner, and the track
will likely be laid that far west this
fall. But that appears to be about the
limit of extension work for that sys-
tenn this year.
The Milwaukee and Puget Sound
line is pushing its rails farther west
on the Fox Ridge grade, and claims it
will be operating into Faith before
the first of next year. To make good
on this they will have to push the
work or take chances on the fine fall
weather extending into the winter.
While there are rumors Of other
moves on the part of the old company
east of the river, rumor is about as
far as it can be traced for this year.
incidentally this company has also
been making a mortgage reco d in the
state department, today fling releases
of two thirty-year mortgages given BY
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paui
company to the Farmers Loan and
| Trust company in 1880, one OF the
mortgages having been given on the
Southern Minnesota division OF that
system and the other on the Hast
ings and Dakota division.

LINE
Construction Work Will Probably be
Pushed in the Spring

Aberdeen-A party of high officials
OF the Minneapolis G. st. Louis
Railway company, including Theo-
dore p. Shonts, president, Edwin
H. Hawley, chairman of the board
of directors, and w. G. Board, CEREAL
manager, visited Aberdeen in a special
train on Friday. The officials were
on a general inspection tour of the
system, but in addition they came to
decide upon the probability Of at
once beginning work on the construc-
ton of the roads contemplated line
from Aberdeen to Pierre, over the old
pierre grade" built by the Pierre
capital boomers twenty years ago and
offered TO the road which would agree
to iron it and run trains over it. The
st. Louis accepted the offer last year.
and this year secured an extension OF
time to October l. Late in September
it was announced that the cont act
had been let for ironing the grade to
Winston brothers and that work
would be commenced at once. Gener-
al Manager Beard blasted all such
hopes on Friday, however, when he
stated that owing to the lateness of
the season 1t would be impossible to
secure contractors who would agree to
push the work, and that the company
therefore, would wait until spring he
fore beginning construction work. The
announcement is a great disappo MT
ment not only to Aberdeen and Pierre,
but to a number of int rvening towns
which had been counting on more dir
rect connection by rail with the
metropolis of the northern part of the
state or with the state capital. Mr..
Beard implied, however, that the road
would build the extension as soon as
spring opens.
