NEGROES FOR
RAILROAD WORK
OVER ONE HUNDRED SHIPPED
HERE FROM CHICAGO. BUT
SOME FAIL TO REPORT.
NOW WORKING NEAR GLENCARY

The Milwaukee Railroad company is
finding the innovation-at at least an in
novatiCn for this read-of employing
negroes on railroad work, success.
full venture thus far. and the 20 men
who comprise the extra gang, busy
this week near Glcngarry, surfacing
the track and wedding the right-of-
way, are giving good satisfaction, ac-
cording to S. L. Leblicher, timekeeper
who is in the city on business.
About 125 colored men have been
started from Chicago on trip to Fer-
gus county to work on the railroad
but the others failed to report to the
company. Some have found better pay
in the harvest fields, while others
simply fell by the wayside.
The COMPANY found It necessary to
employ negro labor owing to the fact
that foreigners usually on this work
are in demand in Europe as soldiers
However, the Milwaukee has a small
gang of Montenegrins near Straw.
The gang now at Glengarry was
placed there this week, after having
been organized for the purpose of i'm.
proving the grade between LewistOwn
and Roy and also on the Winifred
line. 1t was too wet to work on the
Roy line this week, but they will short
ly be put back on this road again.

new STORAGE
BATTERY TEST
PROVES BEYOND A DOUBT THAT
1T OVERCOMES THE DEADLY
CHLORINE GAS PERIL.
IT IS RESULT OF FIVE YEARS. WORK
New Battery Is Made of Iron, Nickel
and Potash, Instead Of Lead and
Suphuric Acid and the Containing
Vessel Is of Steel.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.-An official
government test at the New York
navy yard today of Thomas A. Edi-
sons new storage battery for subma-
rines proved beyond a doubt that it
overcomes the deadly chlorine gas
peril, according to an announcement
made tonight by Miller Reese Hut
Crimson, personal representative Of
the inventor
Il had" Mr.. Hutchinson said, "pre-
pared one hundred miniature cells
and these were placed in a tank hold
ing pure sea water. The tank was
hermetically sealed except for a lit
tie pipe. With the government Of
ficers, we waited half an hour and
then applied the most sensitive test
known to chemistry to find chlorine
gas There was not the slightest
trace.
I'VE waited another short period of
time and then tried the tests again.
They were still negative. 1t proved
absolutely that the new submarine
battery will not produce chlorine gas
The officers who were present in
cluded Captain George e. Bird, in
dustrial manager of the navy yard,
who will make another report to
Washington"
The new battery. according to Mr..
Hutchinson, is made of iron, nickel
and potash, instead of lead and sui
phuric acid, and the containing YES
sci is of steel. not hard rubber Mr.
Hutchinson added that Mr. Edison
began work on the new battery near
ly five years ago. after four lieuten-
ants in the submarine service were
so deeply impressed with the danger
from chlorine gas that they called
on the inventor and asked him to
try to personally develop battery
free of that peril

{. n. STATION
FOR VV|NNETT
COMPANY TO RESUME coNsTRUC-
TON EAST OF CITY IN THE
EARLY SPRING.
BUYS R|CHT.0 T.0F.WAY AND SITE

The Great Northern railway, which
will parallel the Milwaukee road from
Lewistown through eastern Fergus to
near Weede. will erect IA station at
the present town of Winnett, and will
not build a rival town near that place.
In times past there had been many
rumors that the Great Northern would
start Il new town near Winneu. " ben
its road was built. However, Guy L..
Scott, right of way agent for the COM
pany, who is in Lewistown after hav-
ing bought some more right OF way
near there, says that the company
thinks that the one town win supply
the immediate territory surrounding
it, and that depot will be erected at
Winnett by the Great Northern. This
will be cheering news to the residents
and investors in Winnct townsite.
The proposal for the Great Northern
to plat an addition to the present town
site has also been passed up, as the
opinion was that the present townsite
was large enough for present require
mentS.
To Build in Spring.
The fact that Mr.. Scott has con
tracted for the purchase of right Of
way over the Walter Winuett ranch
for a distance Of between four and
five miles, has lead to renewed ru-
mors of the Great Northern extend
ing its line east from Lewistown
through the Winnett country early in
the spring, The right Of Way deal has
just been closed up, and II is under
stood from the best sources that The
plan OF the company at present IS to
resume railroad building out of Lew
istown in the spring.
The extension of the road to the
Winnett section will be a great boon
to the ranchers and farmers in that
section, as wei as the residents of
the little towns that have sprung up in
anticipation of the coming of the steel
rails. 1t will bring a large ana rich
territory nearer to Lewistown and
serve to simulate business conditions
in general in this city and county.
