Willmar Monday forenoon. From jap

most valuable of the kind ever moved

the special over to the Burlington road

it over to the Pennsylvania in Chi

the Japanese steamer Tamba Maru,
which landed at Seattle Friday. 1t
was scheduled to reach the New York
terminals of the Pennsylvania road be-

Every Great Northern and Burling-

alert for the special. 1t was ahead of
time from Willmar to the twin cities.
The Great Northern, which has
broken records in the past, in the

effort in this instance to establish a
new record, although the time was
