SETTLERS COMING
IN TRAIN LOADS
LANDSEEKERS ARRIVING FROM
EVERY DIRECTION; MANY
COME WITH EFFECTS.
One Day Last Week Train Load of
Eighty-Four Carloads of Eastern
Farmers Came in Over the Great
Northern; Movement Will Reach
Peak in Next Thirty Days.

The big land rush into Montana is
fairly on. Landseekers are coming
from every direction, although the
season is young. During the past
few weeks they have been coming
as individuals, or in small parties.
But now the homeseekers are arriv-
ing by the train load. One day last
week a train of eighty-four carloads
of settlers, their families and effects
came in over the Great Northern.
Two engines were required to pull
this train west on the thigh line.
The settlers scattered to various
points along the Havre line, and the
Shelby and Billings lines of the Great
Northern.
Ten Carloads Day.
The Milwaukee has been handling
settlers, and their effects, in carload
shipments that have averaged, dur
ing the past month, over 10 carloads
a day.
The rush comes from all direc-
lions. Even the Union Pacific is
bringing in settlers from the south,
from Idaho and Utah, while Wash
tngtOn and the west coast is contrl-
buting it's full quota.
And while the movement is fairly
heavy, land men say that the big
rush can be expected to arrive at its
peak in about 80 days. The early
corners are largely men who have Wis
tied Montana during the winter.
made purchases, and are now bring
ing their families here to locate
Those who are coming now expect tc
put in crop this spring.
Every Town Has Its Quota.
After crop planting time, another
big rush is expected from Minnesota
Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa, as well
as"other middle western states.
Every town of consequence in
eastern Montana is full of men who
have come to Montana with the idea
of locating.

NEW YORK, April 19. (Wall Street.. selling of special stocks, notably shippings, motors, to- baccos and some of the low grade rails, accounted in large measure for the conflicting and cratic course of today's dull market. New Haven's extreme decline of 44s points to 391i was associated with the company's plan to issue a large block of pre- ferred stock to meet current obliga- tions. The further liquidation of shippings at extreme recessiOns of ? to A points, was attributed to T well defined belief that the profits of those companies are to undergo severe shrinkage under government supervision or control
 A gross decline Of 37 roirts in gle sale at 225 and a 7-Dont loss in American Tobacco, 1874 were cited as additional instances of in- veStment liquidation at current mar ket valuations. Steel and iron shares he'd their ground at gains Of 1 to almost 9 points until the final hour, when the entire list ebbed; metals also forfeiting advance of 1 to points.
 The market closed with a heavy tone. Total sales, 510,000 shares.
 Dealings in bonds were more di- versified and mixed as to tone. with irregularity in internation&is. Total sales, par value, $3.620, 0o0.
