Press Dispatch Connects RockefelI-
er's Canadian Trip With
Such Plans.

The talk Of an extension of the
Milwaukee road towards the north
will not down. The following is a
dispatch from Chicago, which con-
meets the trip Of William Rockefel-
Ter with the project. It will be we'll
for Willmar to be on the alert. With
the Milwaukee road at Willmar, the
possibilities for rapid growth and
development would be great.
Chicago, Aug. 3.-The Chicago,
Milwaukee & St. Paul railway is be-
lieved to be contemplating aninvasion
of Canada for the purpose Of placing
itself in a position to handle some of
the big increase in traffic moving be-
tween the two countries as the re-
suit Of the possible Canadian reci-
procity.
This is reported to be the object of
trip now being made to the North
west by A. j. Earring, president OF
the St. Paul road, and William
Rockefeller, one Of the directors. Mr.,
Earling has been away from his Of
fee for more than a week, and al
though his representatives decline to
discuss his whereabouts or the pur-
pose of the trip, it is understood thai
he and Mr.. Rockefeller are inspect
ing a possible route from Fargo, N
D. to Winnipeg.
Reports have been made in the
past Of this project, but they have
been as often denied by the St. Pau
office. If the line should be built tht
St. Paul would be again brought into
sharp competition with the lines con.
trolled by James J. Hill. .

0iiinq City Streets.

The Thief River Falls News tells
the oiling of the city streets as fol-
lows:
"Work was started Friday cover
ing the business streets of the city
with oil. This is a new experiment
for Thief River Falls, but one that
will be highly successful if the ex-
perience Of other cities in the state
counts for anything. $751;
'Tn applying the oil the city Off
cials are closing the streets and keep
ing them closed until the oil is thor
oughly soaked in. The crossings are
covered with sand which prevents
tracking Of the oil. When the work is
done, clean, dustless streets, that
will shed water easily and will moi
need any more attention or sprink-
ling for year, is promised the city
If the oiling Of the busiess streets OF
the city proves success more oil
will undoubtedly be used next year.

TORREY FALLS |,
FROM Fl N | TR II ain.
Was Picked Up Il Hopkins Juac-
lion IN An Uncensctous
Condition.

Q. F. Torrey one Of the well known
and popular conductors on the Will.
mar division, was very seriously in
jured by falling off a freight train
last Saturday night. During the slack
at the present time, Mr.. Torrey was
doing brahng. At the time Of the
accident he was working as rear
brakeman under conductor Harry
Garfield. A short !. way out from
Minneapolis he had gone with q jug Of
water for the front-end brakeman
and was last seen by the latter on a
fiat car where they had >conversed
and parted, one going to the engine
and the other to the caboose. As
Torrey did not appear, Conductor
Garfield supposed he had stayed in
the engine. But when he failed to
show up at the next station, the
train, crew understood there was
something wrong, and, securing q
switch engine, returned and found
the unfortunate man laying senseless
by the track near Hopkins Junction,
with big cash in his head. He was
taken back to St. Paul and placed in
the hospital suffering from a frac-
tured skull. As the injured man is
quite tall it is thought that his head
must have struck against an over
head bridge, as he was picked up not
far from one such. f.e @
The latest reports are that he has
gained consciousness, though yet in
a precarious condition.
The unfortunate man has family
at Willmar. A Son was born about a
week ago, and owing to the delicate
condition Of Mrs. Torrey the full ex-
tent Of the injury of her, husband
has not been told her as vet.

Kicked by a Cow.

Mr.. Martin Gunderson Of Dovre
was quite painfully hurt in his knee
last Friday by being kicked by a
COW. He came in at once to have
the doctor attend to the injury. It is
hard luck to be laid up from work
right in the busiest time Of the year
too. It will be some time before Mr..
Gunderson will fully recover the use
Of his leg, no doubt, as knee injuries
are usually very "Qong winded."

wREc KERs,TRY To. DITCH NO. 9
Part of Winnipeg Passenger DeraII-
ed in Moorhead City Limits. :. :.

Fargo, N. D., Aug. An attempt
was made in the Moorhead yards,
early. today, to wreck Great. North
ern passenger train No.. 9, which
reached here at 5 a. M, from Minne-
apolis on it-sway to Winnipeg
On crossing sthe city limits Of
Moorhead, the engine, tender and
mail car: left the track and it was
found that the spikes and fish plates
on two rails had been removed. Some
hours afterwards, a crowbar and
other tools were found concealed in
the woods near by. ..- rs1s.*ss =
There is no doubt whatever about
an attempt being made to wreck, but
railroad officials are puzzled as to
! the motive. It is held it could not
have been for the purpose Of robbery
or some other location further from
the city limits would have been chos-
en-. Another theory is that it might
have been planned to wreck the Or
iental Limited, which passes through
here at a. m. That train, however,
passed safely over. 49,.
No one was injured, and the acci-
dent did not even shake up the pas
sengers seriously, as the train was
moving slowly over the crossing at
the time of the derailment. -
After the wreck was cleared away
a new engine was secured and the
train proceeded north five hours late.
! Another mystery in connection with
the affair is that similar malicious
mischief was done on the Northern
Pacific track about 200 feet to the
north and east Of the crossing tower.
All spikes on one side Of a rail and
a bolt in each angle bar were remov-
ed, also all angle bar bolts on the
other side Of the rail. Three fast
trains passed over before the condi-
ton of the track was discovered.
