RAILROADS. R. I. -'FjISCO JEAL Formal Announcement of Its Com pletion Expected to Be Made , March 16. It Will Include an Interchange of Directors With the Atchison. New ork. March 11."When the asser tion was first made, unofficially, of course, that the Rock Island had purchased con trol of Frisco, it was also said that the Atchison was a party in a general scheme involving,an offensive and defensive al liance with the greater Rock Island, Com ing, down to details it was said that an in terchange of directors between the Rock Island and the Atchison would be effected and further that all this would happen on or before March 16. That is less than a week aw ay and those who first authorized these statements say that only the unex pected can prevent the accomplishment of the above plans, on time. It is evident that the formal announce ment of the Rock Island-Frisco deal has been delayed. .\ prominent officer of one of the roads in the deal said last week that it would be made public before Mon day. Whether or not the suggested alliance wjth the Atchison will be a part of the official anouneement cannot be asserted positively, but many believe that the date. March 16. was intended as an ultimate date, before which both matters would be cleared up. A great mass of detail has been cleared up and it may be said that President Leeds"- recent trip to the city was anything but a holiday. It is even said that in perfecting certain details, pre paring certain papers and affixing signa tures, work was continued one day last week into the early morning hours. When every detail, down to the Aery smallest, has been cleared up. "then the official a n nouncement will be forthcoming. TRENHOLM ADVANCED He Succeeds to Place of the Late W. A. Scott. Arthur W. Trenholm. general superin tendent of the Omoha. has been made gen eral manager to succeed the late Walter A. Scott. Wallace C. Winter, superin tendent of the Wisconsin division has been appointed general superintendent to succeed Mr. Trenholm. Mr. Winter will be succeeded by Mr. Bennett of the north ern division. The jurisdiction of the sec end vice president. James 1. Clark, is ex tended over the operating and construc tion departments of the company. Mr. Trendholm has been with the Omaha twenty-three-years. He began as clerk in the auditor's department. In succession he became traveling auditor, local freight, agent at St. Paul. superintendent of freight terminals at St. Paul, superintend ent of the northern division at West Su perior, superintendent of the Sioux City division at Omaha, assistant general sup erintendent and general superintendent. Wallace C. Winter is son of E. W. Win ter, president of the Brooklyn Rapid Tran sit company and formerly president of the Northern Pacific. He has been traveling auditor of the. Omaha, assistant claim agent, chief clerk to the general super intendent, superintendent of the Minne sota and Iowa division, superintendent of the northern division and superintendent of the Wisconsin division. PASS ARGUMENT DEAD Contracting Freight Men's Limitations Under Elkins Law. "Klkins lav/" has induced a sort of pa resis among contracting men, and it is said that the affliction has reached even as high as the "G. F. A." on some of the roads. The ogre has become burdensome. It is dreamed of. talked of in the offices, and every shipper asks to have the law explained, until freight men are on the verge of collapse. It is evident that in Minneapolis the law is t be strictly observed. A con tracting agent said this morning: "I don't believe a ny of the boys will monkey with the law. They know what it means." It is true that all of the roads are placed on the same basis, and that the solicitation of freight business is now something like the search for life insurance businessa battle of arguments. The secret cutting of rates and the giving of transportation to influence shipments is past. Jobbers say things when refused passes to Chica go, but they run against the same propo sition at all of the offices, whether that of a long haul line or a strong line, and are expected to become reconciled to the situation soon. ELECTRIC LINE SURVEYS Engineers Consult at \#inona With Re v .. gard to Line. Special to The Journal, Winona. Minn., March 11.Engineer George Bradish of La Crosse was in Winona this week in consultation with the Winona, persons who are interested in the proposed construction of an electric line of railway in a southeasterly direction from this city to Rushford or some point on the line of the Southern Minnesota road. Preliminary surveys of s everal Be d Ridden From STere Heart Trouble. Pale, Weak and Con stantly Tired. Dr. - - - ' Miles* Heart Cured Me. "I write to thank you for the cure I re ceived from your remedies. When I began taking your medicine I was confined to my bed most of the time. Our best home doc tors told me there was no cure for me on account of the weak condition of my heart. I was pale and weak, constantly tired, had no appetite and could not sleep. I was ex ceedingly nervous and easily irritated in consequence. At last I began taking as a last resort, Dr. Miles' New Heart Cure together with Dr. Miles'. Wine of,. Sarsa parilla. I was helped from the start and I cannot say enough m praise of these wonder ful remedies, lean truthfully say they are the best medicines I ever took. They cured me and I am now able to work on the farm every day. I gladly recommend your rem edies to all sufferers."Wm. B. Campbell. Mantorville, Minn. "For years I could not turn my head to the right but it caused great pain in the back of my neck and it seemed at times my head would burst with pain. I would sometimes lie down, and could not get up without help my neck was so stiff. About once a week I would have to go to bed with a very severe headache. By using one of Dr. Miles' Nerve Plasters on my neck and occasionally using the Anti-Pain Pills, which always relieved the headache instantly, I completely over came my trouble, and both headache and strffness have disappeared."Miss Lucy Bil lows, Cleveland, Ohjo.

Neb., to Sioux City on the Great Northern is purely a Burlington deal. They, intimate that the Great Northern has no particular inter est in the extension, yet it is probable that business men of the twin cities have a decided interest in the extension which will give Minneapolis and St. Paul jobbers a more direct outlet into the populous and prosperous part of central and south eastern Nebraska and which, will natu r ally'in return afford a northern market for corn and beef, the products" of Nebraska. The map shows a cut-off only 100 miles long, but it couples two lines whose af finity is well known. Minneapolis will have a new direct line to Omaha and Denver by way of the Great Northern to Sioux City and the Burlington to Ashland, which is on the main Burlington line from Omaha to the west, southwest and north west. Indeed it is not impossible to be lieve that a new southwestern trunk line may be established by this new bond of relationship between the two merger lines. A glance at the map shows the elaborate network of the Burlington system in the coarse grain and cattle raising territory of Nebraska all through the middle half of the state south to the northern line of Kansas. Nearly every 100 sa.uare miles MAP SHOWING THE PROPOSED BURLINGTON EXTENSION AND ITS RELATION TO THE REST OF THE SYSTEM AND TO GREAT NORTHERN. WEST. routes were made last fall, and it is now proposed to go over the best of these again and see if they cannot be improved by the reduction of curves and grades. Possibly one or more new lines may be run. The right of way men. now out are finding their work difficult-on account of the spring break-up, which makes travel ing in the country very hard. STATION AND TRACKAGE Red Wing Councilmen and Railway Offi? - cials Confer in Chicago. Special to The Journal. Red Wing. Minn., March 11.Commit- teemen of the city council, accompanied by their attorneys and leading citizens, have just returned from Chicago, where they conferred with the president and other officials of the Milwaukee railway with regard to the new station and impor tant track improvements in this city. The delegation visited in Chicago by in vitation of the railroad officials, who showed a disposition to meet the demands of the city as far a s. possible, arid will submit a written proposition in a few days.. SAY IT IS SPURIOUS Milwaukee and North-Western Roads So Characterize a' Circular. A circular which both the Milwaukee and the North-Western roads pronounce spurious has been put in circulation in Wisconsin evidently to prejudice both the public and the members of the legislature against the two roads. The circular reads: To Agents in Wisconsin: The governor of this state is eagerly endeaToring to pass legislation which would.greatly reduce the earning capacity of all railroads in Wisconsin. It is evident that if these, bills become a law a reduction in wages and forces will become necessary. We therefore urge you to use your influence to the best of your, own judgment in preventing the passage of these .bills, namely, the primary elec tion, ad valorem taxation and other reform meas ures. Cure An Alton-Burlington Plan. The Alton and the Bur'ington are con sidering the joint use of portions of track between Chicago and Kansas City. It is proposed that the Burlington build be tween Alton and Mexico. Mo., and then use the Alton tracks to Kanpas City. In return, the Alton will use the new line and the Burlington's track between Alton and St. Louis on the east side of the Mis sissippi. The Burlington will thus gain an inexpensive entrance to Kansas City from St. Louis and the Alton will have a line between St. Louis and Kansas City forty miles shorter than the present one.

The salaries of the chief inspector and his deputies, and all other expenses, amounted to ?2.328,58, leaving a sur plus in the fund of $513.47. The Increase in fees over tue-same month J*st year was $175.25. Egg Shells Wonderfully Strong. Most people are aware of the power of egg shells to resist external pressure on the ends, but not many appreciate their real strength. In a recent test ordinary hen's eggs stood a pressure of between 400 and 375 pounds to the square ine.1i before breaking. When this pressure was applied from within it only took about 32 pounds to break the shell, which averages in thickness 13-1000 inch. The strength that nature intended men and women to have comes with drinking golden grain belt beer, the purest and most nourish ing beverage brewed, Every home should keep this delightful tonic on hand. - - V The well-known strengthening proper ties of iron, combined with other tonics and a mot perfect - nervine, are. found in Carter's Iron Pills, which strengthen the "rien'es and body, and, improve, the blood and complexion, '"* '"I"aaiaa&" l'"ffl'"(ll!H'''Wl',''M'"'l*f'1"' itfn' J1"1 is tapped by extension? of this system AVith proper rate inducements the corn and other coarse grains may be diverted to the twin city market, thus increasing the importance of Minneapolis as a coarse grain purchasing and milling center. In turn the jobbers and manufacturing con cerns of the two cities by rapid and di rect service to this new country will get a large share of the trade which now goes to Chicago. From a railroad standpoint, the new line will give the merger systems an enor mous traffic up and down the Mississippi and Missouri valleys at good grades and it will combine two systems originally in tended to compete, but which now have common ends in view. WATER MAIN CHANGES City Engineer's Recommendations Looking to the Future Growth of the City. ' The city engineer yesterday outlined be fore the council waterworks committee his plan for a rearrangement of the distribut ing water mains of the city. H e considers the future growth of the city in a plan to solve the problem of an adequate supply and pressure for the Lowry Hill district, which has always taxed the resources of the department. To relieve the highlands, the city engineer proposes that a main be laid along Penn avenue N, through the Bryn Mawr district to the hill, thus avoid ing the steep ascent. The hill district could also be reached by a main in Twe n ty-second street to connect with the Third avenue S main, but the engineer favors the north route. To better conditions oh the East Side the engineer would replace the twelve-inch main on Central avenue from the city lim its to Twenty-seven th avenue N E with a thirty-inch main. H e recommended the laying of twenty-four inch mains on the East Side as follows: Eighth street SE, from Third to Sixteenth avenues si x teenth avenue SE. from Fifth to Eighth streets Fifth street SE, from Sixteenth to Eighteenth avenues Eighteenth ave nue SE, from Fifth to Third streets hTird stret SE. from Eighteenth to Oak street. The cost of the East Side work is esti mated at $121,000. The cost of West Side improvements will aggregate $53,000. The committee will recommend next Friday evening that bids for matei'ial be adver tised for. The committee has $200,000 available for the prospective improvements. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. louis G.

Here is a plan worth trying. manai . Taking into account their power to cure, DR. WILLIAMS* PINK PILLS FOR PALE PEOPLE are the most economical medicine, without exception. These pills have effected cures in cases of Partial Paralysis, Locomotor Ataxia, Rheumatism, Anemia and other serious diseases of the Blood and Nerves. They have cured in hundreds of cases where ordinary medicines had been tried and failed. They have restored to helpless invalids the full use oflimbs that had long been powerless. That it has done this is the best guar- antee that the remedy will not disappoint when used for simpler ailments. Taking one pill after each meal (as required for minor troubles) a fifty-cent box of the pills affords nearly two weeks' treatment. For chronic diseases, in which the maximum dose is reached, the cost of treatment does not usually exceed an average of fifty cents per week. Is this not worth a trial? The following statements are made by people who have been cured and whose sole inducement to allow their names to be printed is the hope of commending this means of recovery to those who still suffer. They are not famous people but they are honest people who have bought Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, have been cured by them and are grateful to them. You may rely upon these endorsements as thoroughly as upon tha recommendations of your friends and neighbors: Locomotor Ataxia. Yields. Mr. J. T. Elliott of No. 5818 Parker street, Pittsburg, Pa., was cured of loco motor ataxia by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. H e says: "The trouble began with a se vere pain in the legs and the physician at that time said it was muscular rheu matism. He gave me medicine which I took for some time without seeing any improvement. The pain continued and my strength kept ebbing away. Finally 1 was compelled to give up work. "A different physician this time said. I. .Company A, Twenty-eighth Pennsylvania nad locomotor ataxia, but I only grew volunteers, now residing at No. 74 Fayette Worse under his treatment. I began, to have attacks of vomiting, one of which lasted for sixteen days. I grew thin as a skeleton and very weak. Finally I had a consultation of three Pittsburg physi cians and they pronounced me incurable. The pain in my body and legs continued to increase and became so severe that I had to take moi-phine sometimes to get a. little relief. I became just about help less, with no,control of my legs.
