FAVORABLE RAILROAD DEVELOPMENT
Boise & western Railroad Deeds Right
oi.Way In Canyon TO Hartman.

----
A deed executed December 2S
conveying the right-of-way of
the Boise 4 Western Railroad to
the Hartman system was re-
ceived for record at the clerks
office yesterday morning. A
similar deed was received and re-
corded at Vale according to tele-
phone advice received from there
yesterday. No announcement
from an authentic source had
been made either at Vale or
Burns. yesterday as to the sig
nifcance of the deal or what it
portends. BY some it is consid-
cred that the Hill interests,
which it has always been sup
posed were the real hackers of
the Boise & Western, have a.
bandoned the territory and left
the field entirely to Hartman.
This is possible but not at all
probable considering the situa-
ton.
1t has heretofore been an
nounced that a joint track agree
ment had been reached between
the two systems so far as it af-
fected Malheur Pass. Hartman
has a government right-of-way
through the canyon, a portion of
which will expire next spring.
The Hill people asked for right
of-way which the government
signified a willingness to grant
under condition that should GER
tain reservoir projects be taken
up the track be elevated one
hundred feet. The Hartman
right-of-way is not subject to
such restrictions. In order to
hold this pass without comply
ing with these later restrictions
it is necessary that Hartman be-
gin construction before the limit
expires under which they hold
the pass.
The Boise & Western tHilD
owned practically an entire right
of-way over decided lands from
this valley through to Vale, but
could not get one through the
government portion. 1t is the
opinion of many that the deed
conveying this to the Hartman
system is merely to simplify
matters and means early con-
struction. The Hartman people
could not dispose of its rights to
Hill, therefore this move is made
to get q JOINT track through the
canyon.
Another indication that Mr..
Hill has not abandoned the terri
tory is the conditions under which
some of the deeds for right-of
way over private property were
granted. It is positively known
that in some of these deeds it is
stipulated that the road company
should deed them land in lieu
thereof. This appears to con-
meet the Hill interests directly
with the purchasers of the Road
Land Grant. 1t doesn't look
reasonable to suppose that Mr..
Hill has Abandoned the territory.
All things considered it looks
favorable to immediate construc-
ton work rather than otherwise.

GOLD COIN GOES BEGGING
U. S. Has $500, 1t Cant Give
Away-OWners Wont Take II.

Washington. April S0.-Stacked in one of
the corners Of the steel ribbed vaults OF
the United states Treasury, 100000 In
gold coin is going begging. The govern
ment cannot give it away. yet none of the
rlghtful owners can be induced to take IT,
II represents unclaimed interest on the
public debt. Somewhere in hooks and cor
ners and out OF the way places are the
governments interest checks for the money
which never have been cashed. Some Of
them never will be presented. others may
be brought around in time. and some are
being held by cautious investors
From time to time the Treasury attempts
10 call in the checks. and the vagaries Of
human nature are shown. one citizen has
more than $50. 600 waiting for him, and
holds the checks for it. He was recently
invited 10 cash in and made a trip 10
Washington to tell Treasury officials the
checks we're his property. and he would
cash them when he pleased. or burn them
I'd if he wished n he does the latter his
money will be held in the vaults until Con-
eress. perhaps. might dispose of it. The
Treasury can do nothing but keep it.
The contractor who laid the first pave
ment on pennsylvania dNeHue' HUH 'Hp
Capitol to the White House. has $4,000
waiting for him. II has been there many
years. but the Treasury has never been
able to find the rightful payee. as the con-
tractor failed and his affairs became in
VOWED in litigation which never has been
settled
The amounts Of this seemingly oUnerless
fund range from thousands down to a few
cents

NEW AERIAL TORPEDO
Can Be Fired at Hostile Balloon
from Aeroplane.

Berlin. April 91.-Details OF the new
aerial torpedo. on which the Krupp firm
has taken out American patents. show that
the weapon is primarily designed for car
rying on the long discussed war In the
air its principal feature being the alb
sence Of recoil which has been the chief
obstacle 10 the installation Of regular guns
or artillery on delicately balanced aero
plane or balloon.
The new weapon. which like the marine
torpedo, is self propelling, can be fired
from dirigiblc or aeroplane against the
hostile balloon without disturbing the sta
bility Of the machine. Experiments with
the torpedo. which Is development OF
Swedish invention, have been carried on
since November 1850. The results have
been kept secret, though II IS known That
ranges of five thousand yards with tor
pedo CARRYING a sir pound load Of explo-
sives were attained i'm the early stages OF
the experiments.
The torpedo. which acts on the principal
of the ordinary skyrocket, is composed OF
two portions the explosive head and a rear
chamber containing d slow burning pow
der charge the gases from which issue
through tuIeS dt int Icdl hii' WV wv
projectile through the air. launching de-
vice, operated by light powder charge
or on dirigibles by electricity, gives the
torpedo it's original start and direction, the
burning powde" charge then maintaining
the fight at a constantly increasing speed.
The gas tubes are set at an angle, giving
the torpedo a spin like that Of rifle bullet
to steady its flight.
The American patent taken out last
month covers. It is thought. only the de-
vice for exploding the torpedo when 1t
strikes the bag Of the balloon or dirigible.

far more delicate than that used in regular
