A legal battle over the st. Joseph a
Grand Island railroad was commenced In
the federal court this morning before
Judges w. II. and T. C. Munger. The
minority stockholders of the road are
asking an Injunction to restrain the
Union Pacific. which owns a majority Of
the stock, from expendlng the funds OF
the Grand Island company for improve
msnts which II is alleged are for the
benefit fthe Union Pacific and not OF
the Grand Island company. l, is alleged
the portion of the Grand Island traekage
between Uuland, Kan, and Hastings.
Neb., is being put in much better condl-
ton than the traffic OF the line itself
warrants and that plans are being made
to double track that portion. which, It is
charged, is unnecessary for the COM
pany's business. II is also alleged that II
is contemplated to extend the line from
Hastings. to Kearney, Neb.. and that
such extension is for the sole benefit Of
the Union Pacific, which uses the track
age from Upland to Hastings and will use
the line from Hastings TO Kearney solely
az a part Vi It's bHA " NOAiiCNA the
Kansas Pacific and Union Pacific main
lines. II is charged that a surplus of
81. 10000 in the Grand Island treasury
in 1860 has been expended in this man.
ner and other portions of the road and
its rolling stock have been neglected.
The compliments further alIege that
the control of the road by the Union Pa
cific is contrary to the Sherman anti
trust law and Of the antitrust laws OF
both Nebraska and Kansas.
Answer to Road.
The Union Pacific answers that the
improvements are necessary for the traf-
fic which is being diverted to the line
and from which the Grand Island line
profits and that il the plans are carried
out It will be to the best interests Of all
the stockholders.
The minority stockholders are repre-
scented by Myron L. eLarned Of Omaha,
Samuel Untermeyer Of New York. S. w.

". A. Prince OF Grand Island was in
the city for a short time today enroute
to Washington. where he will appear
before the public lands committee Of the
house in behalf of settlers along the
line Of the Union Pacific regarding the
claim OF the company to a strip 40 feet
wide as right-of-way. The brief pre-
pared in behalf of the settlers sets out
that the soo-foot grant was contained In
the act Of 1862 and that nothing was done
by the company under this act, while
the road was built under the act OF 1854,
which mentioned 800 feet instead OF 400
as the right-of-way. The particular bill
which Mr.. Prince goes to Washington
to advocate is one pending before the
committee which is Identical in terms
with a measure passed In the case OF the
Northern Pacific where exactly the same
conditions originally obtained.
The brief sets up that the settlers have
held adverse possession to all but 800
feet claimed as right-of-way for forty
years, while the railroad company con-
tends this rule OF adverse possession
does not hold as the grant for right-of-
way and for no other purpose and is
therefore inallenable. The bill which is
pending validates all such transfers, and
quiets title in the present owners OF the
land. The total amount involved in the
claims Of the railroad company is esti-
mated at sao.oOo,oOo, including not only
farm land, but lots and business prop
erty in towns along the entire line OF
the Union Pacific.

Sooner or later the storm would burst

Next, he reviewed with chagrin and ir-

the preceding night. He had had not
the slightest semblance of plan in
his head. Sifted down, he saw his
savage and senseless humor and the
desire to stir up discord. Gioconda
was right. Fortune was above them
all, in feeling. in instinct, in loyalty.
What right had he, roisterer by night
that he was. predaceous outlaw, what
right had he to look upon Fortune as
