GREAT NORTHERN
BEGINS NEW LINE
Condemnation Action Is Start
of Branch Through Vast
Montana Region.

Great Falls. Mont, May 5.-Coming
as complete surprise, the Great
Northern Railway company today
started condemnation proceedings for
right of way through Fergus coun-
ty, il being stated in the complaint
that the right Of way is desired for
the building of a branch line about
S5G miles long, which shall run from
Haucks Siding on the Billings <
Northern, a Great Northern branch, to
a junction with the main line on the
Great Northern at a point near Mon
OAK on the Montana-Dakota line.
condemnation proceedings are start
ed in Fergus county only, because for
the balance of the way the land is still
very largely unoccupled and it is not
believed that there will be any trou-
bic over the right of way in that sec
tion.
In substance this means that the
Great Northern is about to build an
entirely new line from the Montana
Dakota line to Great Falls, and IL will
open up q great section of country
heretofore without railway facilities
1t touches at Lewiston, follows Falt
WILLOW peak eastward to the Mussei-
shell river, crosses that and then runs
south of the Missouri river to or near
dts junction with the Yellowstone.
Already a good deal of the line has
been surveyed and it is announced that
dirt en- the new line Will soon be NOV
ing between Great Falls and Lewiston
As the Milwaukee company is also
building between Lewiston and Great
Falls there is expected to be some
thing of a race between them

KNOWLAND GETS
BY WITHCHANGE
important Amendment to Rail-
road Bill Affecting Rate
Tariffs.

Washington, May 5.-Representative
KnOwIand of California offered an
amendment to the railroad bill today,
providing when a railroad in COMPETE
ton with a water route lowered a
rate, it should not be permitted to in
crease the rate until in a hearing be-
fore the interstate commerce commits
sion it had shown a reason for the in
crease aside from the question of the
water route

Mann, who asserted it would make
section 10 of the interstate commerce
act unconstitutional
Democrats, insurgents and some reg
ular Republicans, even members of the
committee reporting the measure, sup
ported Mr. knOW1andS amendment,
which, it was said, would prevent a
railroad from eliminating water route
competition by a low rate and then in
crease the rate as soon as the compe-
tition was removed BY LOG to II the
amendment was adopted.
MIR. Madden of Illinois offered an
amendment to strike from section Is
the provision that upon the change OF
a rate by a railroad the commission
might suspend the rate for period
law in such form that the period Of
susD -oSi9 might -" without limit.
Mr.. Madden's amendment was de-
feated, 62 to g.

dalton of railroad lines under certain
conditions and with approval of the

upon.
Mr.. Mann offered an amendment
making the approval of such trans
actions by the interstate commerce
commission instead of the commerce

amendments that took from the bill
All authority for such consolidation
