b. 0. Johnson, superintendent OF
the Montana division Of the Northern
Pacific railroad and general manager
of the Gilmore & Pittsburg railroad,
is authority for the statement that
in accordance with a confirmation
from the St. Paul headquarters of
the system, $2,OOO,OOO will be ex-
pended on the 33 miles alternate low
grade line between Logan and Boze-
man, which means virtually the dou-
ble-tracking of the system between
the points mentioned.
The construction work will start
about April l and will probably be
finished by October.
The traffic between these two
points has made this work absolutely
necessary and with the increasing
business of the road, it has been
found advisable to eXpend this
amount of money in the effort to
give the best possible facilities to
shippers, said Mr.. Johnson. The
Northern Pacific has realized for a
long time the growing need of Mon
tana for every possible advantage of
service in every department of it's
ever-increasing business and as rap
idly as possible the company is COM
plying with these demands.
Yards to Be Enlarged.
Mr.. Johnson stated that the road
has authorized the expenditure of
100000 for the enlargement of it's
yards in East Butte and for the con-
struction of branch line to the
property of the Butte-Bullwhacker
company, the Sinband and Colusa-
Leonard shafts of the Tuolumne
Copper company and the Tropic mine
of the Anaconda company, all of
these properties being situated in
the so-called east side of the Butte
district. The surveys have been
completed.
Speaking in general way of the
many things the Northern Pacific is
doing in Montana, Mr.. Johnson was
free to state that it is anticipated
Laurel will in a comparatively short
time develop into the largest classifi-
cation point between the twin citi IS
and the coast and for that reason
100000 will be expended in big
yard at that point this year.
Contracting Outfits Ready.
The contracting outfits are now
moving into Laurel and construction
on the Lake Basin branch is expected
to start as soon as weather permits.
The road has been able to boast of
a wonderful handling of traffic dur
ing one of the most severe winters
ever experienced in the territory COW

New York.--A campaign has been

1t is estimated that 100000 persons

is said that prayer meetings will be

Managers in Convention.
The manner in which the recent
convention of yard managers of the
company was conducted is character
lstic of the thoroughness and eff
cheney with which the Rogers-Tem-
pleton people handle their business
AS the yard managers came in, each
was given a ten minutes interview
with the head of each department in
the general offices. First they talked
over their business for the year with
Mr.. Templeton, then went to the as
sistant general manager, then to the
head of the accounting department.,
the head of the credit department,
architectural department and other
departments.
At the convention there were SER
vice talks on "Stock and Stock Keep
ing" every Day Salesmanship, :"
Prospects, Mail Order COMPETE
LlOu. Every lJdy otINICc, hIeull
Sales and Credits" and other subjects
Of interest.
Planned Long in Advance.
Because of the large number in
attendance at the convention the
yard managers, their wives, superin-
tendents, auditors and others, num-
bering 40 this year, it was neces
sary to arrange for accommodations
several months in advance. Nearly
all were housed at the Rainbow ho
tel, and the assembly had more the
appearance of a big family reunion
than business gathering. The
luncheons We're generally held in the
spacious palm room of the hotel,
where the annual banquet also took
place. At the latter there was plen-
ty of fun and laughter, singing,
speeches and "stunts" arranged spe-
cially for the occasion. At one time
the air was full of colored 90. c.
balloons, which resulted in a riot Of
fun. The Park hotel dining room
was arranged for the family dinner.
The wives of the yard managers were
entertained by Mrs. II. A. Temple
ton at a tea one afternoon.
Altogether the convention was a
memorable one, and already the 90.

Denvcr-That virtually all the

towed to a Spanish port after being
torpedoed.
Williston, N. ID. - A self-guiding
torpedo, based on magnetic control,
against which an enemy would have
little chance for defense, has been in
vented by Charles j. Field, of this

who laid the first transatlantic ca
Bile. Mr.. Field, in announcing his
invention, said that it had been
turned over to the United States gov
