Becoming Mother's friend 3 Tuesday^*Evening, THE "MINNEAPOLIS JO0RNAL RAILROADS WHY HARRIMAN WILL NOT FIGHT RIVALS IN NO POSITION TO WAR WITH HILIi. Great Northern's Financial Organiza tion Would Enable I to Break Every Other Road Without Default ing in Interest PaymentsAssociate of Hill Declares There Will Be Peace on His Terms. Special to The Journal. New York, April 25.As J. J. Hill swung down Liberty street the other day on his way from the ferry to his office, he was greeted by the cries of the newsboys calling extras of the eve ning papers containing fearful and wonderful accounts of the alleged "great fight" which was crumbling the prices of Northern Securities, Union Pacific and allied stocks. "What do you think of it, Mrengineer Hill?" he was asked. "If you want to believe that kind of rot," said Mr. Hill, "n one is go ing to stop you. It is not even respect able fiction." Later in the dav, when definite de tails of the fight" were shown him, covering the alleged plans of E. H. Harriman to build a thru line to the coast between the Great Northern and Northern Pacific, Mr. Hill smile'd grimly: "It looks interesting, but it would be too expensive," was all that he would say. The exact way in which it would be too expensive is the subject matter of the following remarks, from one of the closest associates of J. J. Hill and one of the men whose names appear in the list of large holders of Northern Secu rities stock, recently published: "If war of that kind broke out, the Milwaukee and the North-Western would be up against it three years and the Union Pacific would be itself on the verge, carrying two, or perhaps three, bankrupt railroads on its books as assets. Therefore war is not going to break out. The reason is that old man Hill has got the railroads of theSpecial great northwest by the tail, and they know *t. "The Great Northern was built across the continent on the lowest pos sible grades and at the lowest possible cost. It was built on the stock, not on bonds. The others were built on bonds and the stocks were the rake off. That is the reason that the Great Northern could cut its annual net earn ings to $5,000,000 and still be solvent. If you cut down the freight earnings of the Union Pacific 40 per centthat is enough to meet the cut possible on the Great Northern without causing Hill to defaultUnion Pacific would not earn its charges by over $3,000,000 a year. With a similar reduction, the Milwaukee and the North-Western would run $5,000,000 behind fixed charges every year. Hill Holds the Key. "Figure as you please on the bound less credit and power of the Union Pa cific, in the end it comes to this, that J. J. Hill has in his hands ther key to the northwestern railroad situation. Mr. Harriman may rave in his disap pointment over his defeat in the inva sion of Hill territory. I do not beSmith lieve that either Mr. Harriman or the bankers who have stood behind him, and to whom he owes so much of his power, will dare to lift a hand to pre cipitate again the state of affairs that landed the Union Pacific in the retion ceivership of 1893. "There is not going to be war inLabor the northwest. There is going to beago, Seaceand the kind of peace that J. Hill and J. P. Morgan say that there will be. A month from now it will be known across this continent that there is peace. These alleged fights arise out of market conditions. After it is all over there will probably be a rearrangement of the situation up north, but it will take a form not looked for anywhere. It will be a split in one partynot a split between two parties. Alsoit won't hurt Hill. When it is all over you will note that old man Hill is still the biggest rail road man west of the Mississippi river, if not west of the Atlantic." Begin Work on New Line.

SPEEDILY CURED BY CUTICURA I had suffered terrible agony and pain for eight long years from a ter rible eczema on the scalp and face. The best doctors were unable to help me, and I had spent a lot of money for many remedies without receiving any benefit. My scalp was covered with scabs, my face was like apiece of raw beef, my eyebrows and lashes were falling out, and sometimes I felt as if I was burning up from the ter rible itching and pain. I then began treating myself at home, and now my head and face are clear and I am en tirely well. I first bathed my face with Cnticura Soap, then applied Cu ticura Ointment to the afflicted parts, and took Cuticura Resolvent for the blood. I was greatly relieved after the first application, and continued use of Cuticura soon made a complete cure. Miss Mary F. Fay, Westboro, Mass."

Mr. Donovan Thinks the Hemedy Used by Him with Such Remarkable Success the BestCured by Tire Boxes. Men who have to do difficult and dangerous work on electric lines at any hour of day or night, can't afford to have anything the matter with their health,'* Mr. Donovan. You can imagine, therefore, how much I was alarmed one winter's day in 1902, when I was seized by a pain just behind my right hip that made it difficult for me to walk home. It was so bad by the time I reached the house that I was obliged to go straight to bed." Did that relieve you I No, the pain grew more severe and kept extending downward along my leg. I sent,for a physician, and he soon de cided that I had sciatica. In a few days the whole nerve was affected, and the least movement brought on terrible agony." "Did your condition improve under the doctor's treatment?" Quite the contrary. At the end of two months I wasn't a bit better, and at times I feared that I would never be able to leave my bed." How did you get out again When I was lying in bed, unable to move and wasting away in flesh, a friend visited me and told me about won derful cures brought about by a great blood and,nerve remedy,'Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. He strongly urged me to try them, and I luckily had sense enough to take his advice." Did you mend quickly V* Yes, that was the astonishing thing. I noticed a slight improvement before I had quite finished the first box of the pills, I could get out of bed while I was on the third box, and I was entirely cured by the time I had taken five boxes." Mr, Joseph A. Donovan is living at Plaistew, New "Hampshire, and is line inspector for the Haverhill, KTewton and Electric Street Bailway.
