NEWS OF RAILROADS BATE WAR OF CHICAGO MTV ESS OX CATTLE SHIPMENTS THE LATEST PASSENGER TIGHT AS WELL It Shown \o Siena <»* Abatement— General War on Rates Besan in the Southwest Rapidly Spreading to Other Sections «>i the Country— Annual Reports < ontlnne Favor iible. Not to be outdone by the passenger men the Height departments of the St. Paul-Chicago lines have started a lively little rate war of their own range cattle. A few weeks ago. when the movement of cattle began from the West, it was no ticed that tlu> Milwaukee road captured more than its share of the business, which aroused suspicion among the Milwau competitors. An Investigation fol lowed, after which one of the lines cut the cate on range cattle,, Minnesota Transfer to Chicago, down to 10 cents per 100. This deduction was promptly met by the other Chicago roads, including the Mil waukee line. The cut, however, does not seem to have helped matters, for the Mil waukee's competitors for the road, ac cording to its competitors, is still getting away with i large per cent of the busi ness. It is rumored that the Burlington road is taking steps to cut the present rate in hi!;', making a rate of 5 cents per 100, which is ruinously low. It is asserted that the Burlington freignt officials are suspii i >us that the Milwaukee is not liv ing up to ihe present rate, but is making quo ations t.i the cattle shippers. This cannot be proved, and the Burling ton is going to settle the matter by cut ting the rate so deep th:it the Milwaukee cannot go down below it unless at a loss on every animsU shipped. SAYS IT IS DEFENSIVE. MM nmikcc Glviffc Tr:> ninfontiiiental = ;<?::<!« a i?<i Basing Ritte. The Milwaukee road has given notice that it has tendered to the transconti nental lines west, of St. Paul a basing rate o-f $6 per capita, to be used in the sale of through second-class tickets from Puget sound points to Chicago and be lt applicable, however, both by way of Si. Paul and the Missouri river. i ifficers of the Milwaukee road say that this cut is made in order to meet the competition of another road. They deny that i hey are at all responsible for the present demoralization in passenger rates in any part of the country. The Milwaukee's action may cause trou ble for the Chicago-Mlsssouri river lines. Ilepc-.rt Will Bt- « •l.iniiuons. C. S.

Sept. 13.—Every year since the invasion of certain Western states, particularly Kansas and Colora do, by the Rocky mountain locust, or Western grasshopper, in the years 1874 and 187 S. the division of entomology of the department of agriculture has sent agents into the fields In the Western states each summer, to study grasshop per conditions for the purpose of en abling the department to predict; if pos sible, a future invasion and to warn farmers well in advance. This annual I trip for the present year has just teen ! completed and the special agent, Mr. I W. D. Hunter, has just reported to Dr. Howard, the entomologist of the depart ment. This year' 3 investigations have been of special interest on account of a slight outbreak of the locust in North Dakota and on account of an annual abundance of local, non-migratory species in dif ferent Western states. Moreover, a rather large swarm was seen in flight in early August, the exact settling point of which it is now difficult to approxi. mate. Earlier in the summer a state ment was published in certain Western newspapers to the effect that it was considered by entomologists that the Turtle mountain region, in North Da kota and Montana, probably was a per manent breeding ground of the de structive migratory grasshopper, a statement which occasioned much alarm and indignation on the part of railroad? and other land owners in that part ot the state. This region, therefore, was carefully traversed and scrutinized by Mr. Hunter, who reports that the mi gratory grasshopper does not breed per manently in the Turtle mountains, nor in that immediate vicinity. The ground is perfectly unsuited to breeding, and, moreover, swarms descending farther east have been traced from far to the northeast of that place. The probable breeding ground, he thinks, is upon the Assiniboine river, north and east of Re gina—a region which will be investigated next season. _ THREE POPULAR TRAIN'S Via St. Pnnl & Dnlutli Railroad.

S. Rose, of Milwaukee, and Grov. Edward Scofield made addresses of welcome. The principal address of the forenoon session was delivered by ex-Gov. W. D. | Herd, of Fort Atkinson, who spoke on | "State Aid to Road Building." Mr. Hoard is vice president of the Wisconsin State League for Good Roads, and in his remarks advocated the support by the | people of the constitutional amendment i passed by the last legislature authorizing state aid. Resolutions were offered and referred to a committee that the good roads move ment deserves increased attention and support of the United States department of agriculture. Indorsing the discussion of good roads, and road building methods emanating from the Wisconsin Institute were important; that every town should own and employ road graders, road roll ers and a stone crusher for maeadamte j ins purposes; to collect road taxes In ca<=h and the employement of competent labor; calling for the improvement of notmtry roads leading; to county seats and market towns: that these can beSt be procured by state aid, which system Is enjoyed hy New Jersey, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island and Connecti cut, and favoring the constitutional amendment now ponding for such aid. The work for good roads of the League of American Wheelmen, Farmers' Na tional congress. Wisconsin League for Good Roads and Wisconsin Farmers' in stitutes is also commended in a resolu tion, and n resolution providing that at least six miles of road in each township be absolutf-ly under control of the state was offered. _ BEE MUD A GALE.

The company expects to pay a dividend before July 1,1900. All moneys paid to a receiving trustee, under bond, and paid out by a disbursing trus tee only upon duly audited vouch ers for work done.

INSPECTOR'S REPORT. The shareholders met in Minne apolis Augmst 7th, and elected W. E. Richmond, on whose Integrity they relied, and sent him to the state of Washington to investigate the company and its mining prop erties. He reports among other things: "I am satisfied from my cursory observation of the district and our Company's properties that we have at our disposal a quantity of val uable ore, ranging in value from $10 to $20 per ton, too vast to be estimated. All the company needs is a wise engineering management and sufficient means to make divi dends certain to its stockholders. I find further: "(1) That the management of the Company is honest and ca pable; (2) that the Company con trols and Is in a position to con trol much of the most valuable ore of the Miller River District; and (3) that with sufficient means and proper management, the Company will pay dividends beginning with in a year. "I find that the officers of the Company are determined to push the work; that the stock is selling with great rapidity, and that there Is every prospect that sufficient money will be realized to carry on the works undertaken within a reasonable time. "I therefore recommend the Company's stock upon the terms upon which It is offered, consider ing the methods under which the Company conducts its business, as a good and safe investment." TERMS.
