8 RAILROADS TO BUY TIMBER LAND FOR CROSS-TIE SUPPLY Burlington and Three Other Lines Send Out Land Lookers to Locate Suitable Tracts- Large Forest Reserve Wanted If the plans of certain railroads that center in St. Paul and Chicago mature large timber tracks along the routes of these lines will be acquired by them from which cross-ties will hereafter be produced. The Burlington, Rock Island, Illinois Central and the Santa Fe have sent out searching parties to hunt up suitable lands, and recently the bureau of forestry of the United States department of agriculture was called upon by the representatives of the lines interested for information that will assist in perfecting the project. If the idea is successful the railroads of the West will in a short time be come the owners of immense areas of timber lands and they will also be come interested in the preservation of forest trees to an extent that has never been undertaken before even by the national government. The move is due to the difficulty the railroads experi ence in getting supplies of cross-ties nt reasonable prices and at the times needed. There have been many experiments by government officials which have had for their object the preservation of certain kinds of wood for a longer pe riod than experience has shown they last in the natural state. It Is said the government experiments have shown that other woods than those formerly used can be profitably made into ties. The success of this demonstration has led to the idea of the roads buying timber bearing lands near their tracks from which the future tie supply can be drawn. The plan will include the employment of a vast army of foresters whose duty it will be to look after the preservation of the growing timber. River Bottoms Available. In the river valleys along the lines of the Illinois Central and the other roads running south are large tracts of swamp ground covered with a dense growth of beech timber, water oaks and other trees which have in the past been counted as worth little by the lumberman. It is possible all these can be utilized for ties after proper treatment and will even outlast the timbers formerly used. The haul the railroads have to make to get the ties to the places where they are needed is each year growing more and more expensive and vexatious. The new plan will supply the timbers at points more convenient for handling than is possible under the present sys tem of purchasing them from contrac tors wherever the latter happen to find a few thousand trees that are suitable for ties. In accordance with the demand of the railroad and telegraph companies for some relief from the present condi tions and the danger of a steady fall ingl off in the possible supply of poles and ties in the near future the forestry bureau of the agricultural department ■will this summer continue on a large scale experiments In handling timbers of different varieties. On the success or failure of these experiments the scheme to get possession of the timber lands will depend. WILL BE NO RATE WAR. St. Paul-St. Louis Lines to Refrain From Further Reductions. The $16.25 rate made Thursday by the Minneapolis & St. Louis and met by the Burlington and Rock Island has created very little business, and the indications are now that the reduction will cause no rate war between the competing lines, although for a while Thursday it looked as if trouble was imminent. It is now practically decided by the action of the Minneapolis & St. Louis that all excursion rates into the Chicago or Missouri river territory must be figured on the basis of tne new $8-rate to Chi cago. The Chicago-St. Paul lines have been figuring their rates for excursion business on this basis since the rate be came effective, but with other lines the matter has been optional. The Minne apolis & St. Louis Thursday insisted that the $8-rate is a permanent one, although the Burlington was equally positive that it could only be considered as a temporary tariff. But the passenger officials of the North Star line flatly refused to figure the St. Louis excursion rates on the old basis of $11.50 to Chicago, so the cheap late of $16.25 resulted. "There will be no rate war between the St. Paul-St. Louis lines." said a pas senger official yesterday. "While some of us were a little provoked at the action of the Minneapolis & St. Louis, we will all abide by the $16.25 rate. There will be no further reduction. Traffic to Southern points is light, and excursion rates at this season creates little business. I wish the $18 rate had baen maintained, for we would carry as many passengers at that figure as at $16.25 and would receive $1.75 additional for the transportation. Makes Fast Run. Considerable, interest has been excited among railroad men by the experiment in Fast train running just completed by the Pennsylvania. The effort was made to at tain a speed of 100 miles an hour. The course was on the seashore division and a mile of level track, with an approach hav ing a slight down grade, was prepared for the races. A train of eight coaches was sent over the track at the rate of ninety miles an hour and when, one after an other, all the coaches were 'dropped, the fngine and tender made the level mile at about the rate of ninety-five miles an hour. RAILROAD NOTES. The Milwaukee will carry the Twin City contingent of Elks, who will attend the national meeting of the lodge at Balti more.

Moffat. of the Den ver Southwestern & Pacific, known as tljo Mciffat Short Line, announced that hifj road will reduce the distance between Salf Lake City and Denver by over 200 miles. It is proposed to connect with Senator Clark's road at Salt Lake City, and create a new trunk line west of Dem/*r. It will make available 300 square miles of an thracite and semi-anthracite coal. Vp to the present 20.217 cars of citrus fruit have been shipped from California to the East. It is estimated that the total number of cars for the season will amount to 35,000, the largest crop on record. The extension of the Wisconsin &• Mich igan road to Norway, Mich., has "TT&en completed, and it is expected traffic to these points will be inaugurated Aug. 1. Figures compiled show that the $10 rate between Chicago and the Twin Cities is extremely costly and that each line is los ing $4,150 a week, even though there is an increase in traffic. George J. Gould is said to be after the 7'f'high Valley. His recent trip over the line, in company with General Manager "Wilbur and former President E. P. 'Viibur, was for the purpose of getting Information about the physical condition of the property and to acquaint himself with the facilities of the company at tho various {remlnals.

President Warner presented the following: Hon Board of Fire Commissioners, St. Paul. Minn. * Gentlemen: I have the honor of sub mitting my third annual report of inspec tion of the Department. Aided by Chief Jackson, all the houses were inspected, including the outlying districts, St. An thony, Merriam and Macalester Parks, and the Fire Alarm Department. Since my last report, wherein I stated that great strides had been made in the perfection of repair and appearance in the apparatus, the neatness displayed in the care of each and all houses, the excellent condition of the horses, all of which had been obtained under an- appropriation barely sufficient for proper maintenance, I was nevertheless surprised, as well as gratified, to note at this time the many needed repairs that had been made in the several houses, which augment greatly their permanency and appearance, all of which was accomplished under a like con dition of funds. In this respect, the Com mittee on Buildings, for their sagacious and economical disposition of funds at their disposal, have obtained results that exemplify their administration. The horses throughout the.Department are in excellent condition, the many new horses purchased are stock that are a credit, being selected with great care as to the requirements of the Department. The apparatus has been constantly kept in repair—many of them having been painted, which adds materially to their preservation and general appearance; which also serves to deceive the eye of the casual abservei* as to their antiquity. The Fire Alarm Department is replete in all details as consistent under present stress of funds. The instruments of this Department are in excellent repair, show very little, if any, of the wear and tear of constant use. The Superintendent and his assistants deserve the many commendations of the public for their courteous treatment ex tended to all visitors, and are deserving of great credit for their accuracy and rap idity in the receiving and transmitting of alarms. The personnel of the Department is now of a very high standard. The great care that is taken of the respective houses and the rapidity in responding to alarms, cannot be improved on. In this last re spect there was but one company whose horses were slow in responding to the gong; hawever, this has been rectified. Tlie contract for immediate delivery of coal has been executed and delivered, and it is worthy of note to state that the coal received is in all respects of an ex cellent quality. On my visit to Engine Company No. 15, the now house located in West St. Paul, my attention was called to the fact of the roof leaking. This is not the first time that a report of this nature has been THE ST. PAUL GLOBE, SATURDAY JULY 18, 1903. made, in fact, the roof has been unsatis factory since the completion of the house, which" eventually means at the expiration of the guarantee covering this roof (which is for three more years) that the Com mission will be obliged to' re-roof the °In Secompany with the Chief and the Master Mechanic, we visited the W. b. Nott Manufacturing Co., to n°te. *ne progress they were making in the building of the engfne recently purchased. we were pleased to note that the engine was set up and was in readiness to be placed in the paint shop. In inspecting the work, we were pleased to note that the work manship, materials used and the setting up were of a very high order, and are inclined to believe that the engine will meet with our requirements in all re spects. On behalf of the Commission I assume the privilege of extending to Chief Jack son, his assistants, officers and men, our appreciation for the services rendered to our city and administration, commending them in the highest terms for the enviable position they have secured as the pre eminent fire department of the West, which has been made possible only through their strict compliance with the rules and regulations, and the ever per sonal interest manifested toward the general welfare of the service—these qualities being paramount in securing the position they have acquired among the fir e departments of this country, and for which our people are justly prone to extol. REUBEN WARNER JR.. President. Following are recommendations for your consideration: First —The purchase of three new en gines, which are to replace a like num ber of old engines In the Department. This would entail an expenditure of $10. --000 to $12,000, taking into consideration the old engines in trade. This would come under the head of a permanent im provement, which would be covered by the issuance of city bonds. Second—To replace the Chemical No. 3, located in West St. Paul, with a new combination hose wagon. The present equipment Is not a proper one ror this district. Third—The lighting of Supply Hose Company's No. 5 house with gas. The mains on this street have recently been laid, the connections, etc., can be done at a nominal cost. Fourth —The extension of Engine House No. 13, located at St. Anthony Park. This would also come under the head of perma nent improvements. Fifth —To secure the services of Dr. Harry Ritchie as official physician of the Department at a nominal salary. This recommendation is urged for the general good of the service. On motion of Commissioner Brace. President Warner's report of his annual inspection was accepted and placed on file; that we concur in his report relative to the condition of the department and the efficiency of the officers and men; that we extend to President Warner our sincere thanks and appreciation of his very suc cessful and efficient work as President, as shown by the present condition of the de partment, and that the recommendations of the President be adopted, except as to item fifth, which will be taken up as unfinished business. The above recom mendations as adopted were ordered pre sented to the Conference Committee in case the $200,000 bond issue is passed by the Council. The following bills, duly approved, were presented for allowance: Brings & Co., $-25.88; Craig Oil Co., $6.40; Globe Co., $15.49; Holmes, Mac- Gaughey Co., $40.32; Lamb Lumber C 0.,. $564.16; Mitsch Wagon Co.. $.16.50; Me lady & Casey, 50 cents; Minnesota Har vester Co., $6.36; N.
