RAILROADS ANNOUNCE OFFICIAL APPOINTMENTS SUPERINTENDENT AND TRAIN. MASTERS CHOSEN FOR THIS DIVISION OF MILWAUKEE. Local officials of the Chicago, Mil waukee & Puget Sound today received an order creating two new positions on the line in this state, a trainmaster on the Rocky Mountain division, to be filled by C. C. Dimock, and a train master on the Musselshell division, to be filled by F. M. Melin. The official announcement of the extension of the Rocky Mountain division to include the Montana railroad from Lombard to Lewistown has also been received. The order transferring Quperintendenj: Hugh Spencer of the Mon tana railroad to Miles City as superintendent of the Musselshell division and the ex tension of that division by the addition of the trackage between Miles City and Marmath, S. D., to it has also been received. The Transmissouri division of the road now raches from Mo bridge to Marmath, S. D. All of these orders become effective Sunday, Jan uary 10. 1 Superintendent E. H. Barrett of the Rocky Mountain division will continue to maintain his office in Butte for the time being. There is now in course of construction at Three Forks a three-story office building to be used by the superintendent and other di vision officers, but it will not be com pleted for some time. The offire of the superintendent of the Montana railroad, which Mr. Spencer main tained in Helena, will be moved to Butte at once. The New Boss. Mr. Barrett, who, after Sunlay, will be in charge of the road betwe'en BIutle and Lewistown, has been railroading for ..mre than ?0 years, and before that time was in the employ of a bridge and t u!lding concern in Des Moines, Iowa. Seven years ago the St. Paul people placed him in charge of construction on the Rochelle & South ern, a St. Paul feeder in Illinois. Construction on that line finished, Mr. Barrett was sent to South Da kota, and placed in charge of construc tion on the St. Paul between Cham berlain add Rapid City. After he had completed that line he went to Min leapolis as trainmaster for the St. Paul. When work was begun upon the Pa cific coast extension of the St. Paul, Barrett was sent out on that job, and was in charge 6f construction from Marmath, S. D., to Harlowtown, su pervised the rebuilding of the Montana railroad from there to Lombard, and was in charge of the construction of the Rocky Mountain division into Butte. He is now superintendent of one of the longest mountain divisions in America. An Expert. The extension of his territory to include the Montana railroad, it is understood, was made because of his expertness in railroading in difficult places, and his ability as a builder of 'both grades and bridges. There still remains a great deal of work to be done on the Montana railroad and this will be under the direction of Mr. Bar rett.-Butte Inter Mountain. MILtAUKE TO BUILD MORE DAMS ST. JOE RIVER TO BE USED TO GENERATE MOTIVE POWER FOR ELECTRIC TRAINS. Seven large dams will be con structed in the St. Joe river during the next two years by the Milwaukee, which, when completed, will be used to generate electric power that will run its trains through the mountain country. A company capitalized at $500,000 and known as the Idaho Water and Elec tric, Power company has been organ ized for the purpose. Plans have been drawn and all estimates made for the dams and active work will be started, as soon as weather conditions will permit. The electric trains will be put on as soon as the dams and power houses are completed, which will be in about two years. The dams will be built in the St. Joe, extending from above Hoyt's flat down 'river toward the town of St. Joe, Two of the dams will be on the Coeur d'Alene forest rfterve. These will be about a mile and a half apart. The total cost of building these dams is estimated at about $300,000 to $400,000. Each dam is figured to be capable of generating several thou sand horsepower.-Wallace Mimes.

RAILWAY OWNERSHIP IN DOUBT NORTHWESTERN OFFICIALS 'E FUSE TO CONFIRM REPORT OF N. P. PURCHASE. While Northwestern railway offi clials at Chicago refuse to be quoted on the reported deal whereby the Northwestern has secured a control ling voice in the Northern Pacific rail way, it has been learned that the oeal has been closed, and arrangements are making to operate the two roads as one system from Chicago to the sound. Under the proposed arrangement train of solid Pullmans will be the crack train and it will be run via Hel ena. The North Coast limited will Vn via Butte, as at present, according to present plans. In addition to the through trains, there will be two lo cals, so that service over the North ern Pacific will be improved. This is a dull month in passenger business, and it may be 30 or 60 days before the new schedule is made ef fective , and in the meantime the equipment under the new deal is being made ready. There will probably be a number of changes in present depot arrangements wherever the Great Northern and Northern Pacific have been using a station jointly, where the last named owns the depot. It is said that no tice was given the Great Northern re cently that within 90 days it must find other quarters, as the new combina tion will require the whole of every station now jointly used by the two lines.
