ST. Paul, Aug. 10.-A. K: Stickney,
founder of the Chicago Great Western

1908 caused his resignation as presi-
dent of the Great Western.
One of his commercial projects re-
suited in the founding of the st. Paul
Union Stock Yards Company at South
st. Paul
In 1883 Mr.. Stickney began the or
ganization of what was to be the Chi
cage Great Western railroad when he
took over the charter of the old Min
nesota & Northwestern line, which had
been unable to meet charter obliga-
tions.
As its president he extended the lin'
from ST. Paul to Morley Junction, Iowa,
linked Lyle. Iowa, with the Illinois
Central railroad, and Morley Junction
with the Diagonal railroad and brought
both of those lines into ST. Paul.
Soon afterward he extended line
from Hayfeld, Mimi, to Chicago and
built branch from Oelwein. Iowa, to
Omaha, Neb., under the name of CHI
cago, st. Paul & Kansas City line.
These lines. consolidated. formed the
Chicago Great Western system. Mr.
Stickney then remained president OF
the company until year after it had
gone into receivership, resigning as re-
ceiver because of failing health.
