J /S\2 "1 AFTERTHEWIS.CENT. J 0' northern Securities Interests Cred ited With a Plan to Acquire . That Road. t ' '* Hill's Interest in the Ashland- Ore Docks Thought to Be Chicago, tec 17.The Record-Herald this morning publishes the following: There is a general Delief in western rail road circles tha.t the Northern Securities company has acquired or is acquiring a controlling interest in the Wisconsin Cen tral railroad. Affairs in the traffic world have been shaping themselves of late in a manner that would clearly indicate that if James J. Hill is not the owner of a large share of Wisconsin Central stock, taht railroad is working in close harmony with the northern lines. When in Chicago last week Mr. Hill was asked if he owned the road or if the Northern Securities company was acquir ing it, and replied, "I do no1ow the road, nor do 1 want it. I have enough rail roads for the present to keep me busy." Mr. Hill's denial, however, can natur ally be taken with a grain of salt, and it would not surprise a great many well in formed railroad men if the announcement of the Hill control of the Wisconsin Cen tral would soon come. A circumstance said to bear strongly upon the Hill interest in the property is found in the recent visit of Mr. Hill to the city of Ashland., Some time ago the great ore docks in that city, which were the property of the* Wisconsin Central, burned up. Shortly after the fire Mr. Hill spent two days, in Ashland looking over the dock property with a view, it is said, to seeing if it would be advisable to re build. The Northern Pacific runs a spur from Duluth to Ashland, but did not use the ore docks at the latter place, so that* Mr. Hill's interest in the matter could not. be accounted for by a Northern Pacific in terest in the dock property. It is even said that the -Hill ownership of the Wis consin Central will cause an abandonment of the ore docks at Ashland for those at Duluth, which are used by the northern lines. In explanation of Mr. Hill's alleged de sire to obtain the Wisconsin Central it is stated that he wants to get a larger hold on the traffic batween the great northwest and the east. A large portion of the traf fic between the sections now goes across Lake Michigan by ferry, where it is de livered to railroads for connections at Toledo, Detroit and Buffalo. Nearly all the immense ore product goes part rail, part water route, and in this connection the Wisconsin Central would prove a val uable adjunct to the Great Northern and Northern Pacific roads. The Wisconsin Central touches Lake Michigan at Manitowoc, Milwaukee and Chicago, with boat connections from the first two with Frankfort, Ludlngton, Grand Haven and Benton Harbor. Sight is not lost of the most important fact that Manitowoc is the only port on the east side of the lake which remains open the year around. Mr. Hill's oft expressed wish is to bring the markets of the east within the grasp of the northwest terri tory and with a rail and water route open the year around. The means for so doing would be at his command. The acquisition of the Wisconsin Cen tral would practically be an easy matter, as it is mostly held in the east. The common stock issue is $17,500,000, the pre ferred $12,500,000 and the funded debt J26.276.500. The company has 1,026 miles of road and an earning capacity of about $6,000,000. LINES TO THE HILLS The North-Western and Milwaukee May Both Cut In. Special to The Journal. Pierre, S. D., Dec. 17.W. W. Olney, a civil engineer who makes his headquar-. ters at Blunt, but who is at present en gaged in railroad survey work in Michi gan, tells his friends that he has received from the North-Western and the Milwau kee roads propositions to submit bids for running lines for them next spring from Pierre to the Hills, for the former, and from Chamberlain to the Hills for the lat ter. It is to be hoped there is more than talk in these propositions. THE BEEF TRUST CASE Packers Say Their Acts Are In Further ance of Trade.

Attorney John S. Miller, repre senting the packers, declared that the bill does not allege any restraint of inter state or foreign--, commerce, and that the shipment or comnjodKies by 'the 'packers to their agents in another state does not constitute interstate , commercei The acts of .the packers, lie said, were in fur therance of trade rather than In re straint. ..-...-...- District Attorney Bethea made an argu ment to show the falsity of the.constitu tion that when goods are sent from one state to another state for sale in the lat ter place, the act Is not In" the nature of interstate commerce. He declared that the sale" by one of the packers' Ne w York agents of meats shipped from Chicago wras transaction and that it is controlled by the laws of the interstate commerce. He insisted that commerce involves the idea of carrying a commodity to another place for sale there, and that this includes not only traffic but every species of com mercial intercourse between the states. Judge Grosscup then adjourned court, after telling counsel for both sides to sub mit briefs within two weeks. REASONS IN WRITING I. C. C. Asks Roads to'State on Paper Reasons for Rate Advances. The interstate commerce commission at the rate hearing in Washington yesterday decided to require the roads to file writ ten statements setting forth reasons to justify the advance in rates. The date before which the statements must be filed is Jan. 10. BOOSTING TH E RATES Some Traffic Officials Think 10 Per Cent Not Enough. The general meeting of the Central Freight association in Chicago to-day is considering the matter referred without recommendation from .the meeting of the Chicago east-bound traffic officials yes terday. Several of the central line asso ciation roads have come o believe that the propsed general advance of 10 per cent In rates is not enough and recommend a greater increase. Other roads opposed this yesterday for fear that a further ad vance would reduce the volume of traffic.

Mercury Has Tumbled to 34 Below Zer and Coal Supplies Can-v not Be Had. - Special to The Journal. Winnipeg, Man., Dec. 17.Furniture makes expensive firewood, but it is being bufned by farmers on the prairies, for the scarcity of fuel in isolated rural dis tricts of Manitoba has reached an acute stage, so acute indeed that many farmers and their, families are in a really desper ate plight. The railways have been taxed to their.utmost capacity during the past few months relieving tire grain blockade and, in. consequence, have paid no atten tion to the clamor and petitions for fuel from all over tb# country. The result has been disastrous . and has entailed great hardship and much suffering at points along the Northwest Central and on the Pipestone line where no wood is availably* at all. ' . . .3sV .It is a pitiable sight to see farmers with) their .wagons and ready money literally besieging incoming trains at little stations and begging for coal to no avail. One - own recived only one car of lignite coal in iOur weeks, at other places when a car arrived the fuel Was'doled out carefully to enable the supply to relieve the stress of the circumstances as generally as possir ble, but even then scores have been re fused any after drlvng ten to fifteen or twenty miles in the hope of procuring" it and have been forced to return to aflreless stove and a suffering family with no means of relieving them. The climax was reached last .week, when the sever weather set in and the mercury dropped- to 34 below zero. The unfortunate farmers burned their fence posts, tore down their stables and burned - them' in- many cases andas a last resort between therri and freezing to death they smashed it. _'- _ ' - . ' -- It Is a really desperate condition of, af fairs and should more sever weather de scend upon them in their isolated position the result is not pleasant to contem plate. - Iowa City,-Iowa, Dec. 17.-Houses with stoves are in great demand by the students of the University of Iowa. There is almost a coal famine and the landlords who have furnaces find it hard to secure enough coal to burn. There is a rush for the houses where wood stoves can be kept going by the students themselves. Special to The Journal. Jesup, Iowa, Dec. 17.-The fuel famine here and at Hopkinton is becoming ser ious.

WE HAVE ALREADY STRUCK OIL, AND IF WE GET A SPOUTER $100 INVESTED NOW WILL MAKE YOU $20,000. We own a large block of land In the center of the Fossil, Wyoming, oil fields. We havs two rigs, costing $12,000, boring for oil now. One of these rigs struck a 25-barrel per day flow of oil, worth $8 per barrel. A 100-barrel per day flow will make our stock worth $1 or $5 per share, and if we get a sponter every share will go to $25. PRICE OF OUR STOCK FOR A SHORT TIME IS 10c PER SHARE, STRAIGHT, NO DISCOUNT. The last we heard from our big rig was thai the casing was brim full of oil, and a telegram from President Shaw says we are liable to strike a big Cow of oil any minute. The com pany is talking of advancing the price of ths stock, and we do not think much more will be sold at 10c. Send in an order at once. Some of the most noted men in the United States are heavily interested in these oil fields. Here are a few: Wyner & Harland, London. England Mr. Taylor, chemist. Standard Ofl Co. Robert Hutchinson, chemist, Glasgow, Scotland Mr. Clark, chemist, Casper refinery, Wyoming Senator Clark, Montana R. E. Rus sell, California: Wm. J. Bryan, Lincoln, Neb. Stephen B.

Kenna. first vies president Santa Fe railway, and hundreds of others Senator Clark of Wyoming owns a lot of land adjoining ours and has just spent $20,000 for drilling outfits alone. Are you afraid to put in a small amount of money where such men as these are putting in thou sands and thousands? Prof. Wilbur C. Knight, the state geologist of the state of Wyoming, Prof, Mitchell, stats geologist of Utah, and Pro. F. W. Warren of San Francisco and many other professional geologists have all said, after seeing nearly ^11 the oil fields in the world, that these ars the best they ever saw. They say that the sur face indications hero have never been sur passed. We are in the second oil sand with the biff rig and are liable to strike a spouter any min ute. This oil is quoted in the United States government reports as having a market vain* of $S for barrel. It is the best lubricating and refining oil ever known. It will last four hours longer on machinery than the best grades of specially prepared lubricating oil that it is possible to buy. - . The company has authorised us to sell only 50,000 shares and it *te going rapidly. If you don't get in at once you will lose a chance ts make a fortune for we will get a large flow of 0il within.90 days almost as sure as that ths sun will rise. Wc .think that $5,000 is all that we will need. This office has authorized the company to draw on us for any money that they may need to keep the rigs running night and day. We are as sure as we are of anything that th moment the public learns the kind of a propo sition we have they will buy even faster tbaa they are now doing. Every share of stock for sale will be taken quickly. The first step to take is to GET OCR PROS- PECTUS. Do this at once. Write a card for It to-day. It won't cost you anything and ws want vou to see it anyhow. We already have .1 small flow of oil and are going to get.mil lions of barrels. Stock is non-assessable and fully paid, and there is no personal liability on It. Another strike may be made at any -time, and the moment it is made the stock will be withdrawn from the market.
