Sioux City Is reaching out with commend
able energy In on effort to eccuro more
railroads. The Commercial association of
that city la ualng every endeavor to per-
uado the officers of the Minneapolis & St.
Loula ral/road / , which will bo extended from
New Ulra , Minn. , to the Missouri river , to
establish Lho terminus of the road at Sioux
City instead ot Omaha , as has been the
ccncral belief ever slnco the Idea of an ex-
tonalon of the Minneapolis & St. Louis was
first considered.
W. 1' . Manley , president ot the Security
National bank and chairman of the railroad
committee of the Sioux City Commercial as
sociation , recently returned from Now York ,
wbore lie had an Interview with Kdwln
Ilawley , pr eel dent , of the Minneapolis road.
Mr. Hawlcy Informed him that It had not
been definitely decided what would bo the
terminus At the new line and by his state
ment quachcd the Idea that the question had
already been settled In favor of Omaha. It
Is altogether probable that this question will
be taken up by the officials of the Minneap
olis & St. Louis road within the. coming
month and an agreement reached. In
speaking of his Interview with 1'rcfildciH
Hawley , Mr. Manley Bays :
"I shall bo very much surprised If the road
Is not built to Sioux City. In my own mind
I feel sure that Sioux City Is to bo made
the southern terminus. I was brought to
this belief by my talk with Mr. Hawlcy.
Ho said that statements that the company
already had decided on Omaha or any other
place for the terminus were incorrect and
without authority. Mr. Hawley did not say
that the road would < bo built to Sioux City ,
but I inferred from -what ho did say , or
rather what ho did not say , that Sioux City
was most favorably considered. Ho made
the surprising statement that he was in
Sioux City not very long ago and made a
careful study of the topography of the coun
try to the uorth and euat , as well as Inform
ing hlmscll as to the business ot the city.
Ho said ho knew how rich the country was
between Storm Lake and Sioux City , and ho
thought tbo territory the best unoccupied in
Iowa. "
It Is not unreasonable to believe that this
extension which the Minneapolis road has
under advisement will touch Stoux City , but
It Is hardly likely that the terminus will be
established there. Among local railroad men
It la generally believed that tbo Minneapolis
& St Louis eventually expects to reach
Omaha , And -will not too satisfied until It
establishes ills Western terminus hero.
During his visit In Now York Mr. Manley
also saw the secretary of George Oould ,
irrcBldo&t ot the Missouri Pacific. He was
unable to BOO Mr. Oould , who was making
hasty preparations for an European trip.
Bloux City Is desirous of getting an exten
sion of the Missouri Pacific from Omaha ,
and an effort will bo made to convince the
officials of that road of the desirability of
euch an extension.

Ilnrrlninn Hull Ilcnnon for Gratifica
tion Over Short Iliie SlicMvlim.
B > . H. Karrlmon , chairman of the execu
tive * board of the Oregon Short Line , bad )
ample cause for making the statement In
Salt Lake City last week that "The recent
financial Bhowjng of the Short Line Is grat
ifying , particularly as the season was six
weeks behind when I went west In the
eprlng. ItKUI then uncertain how the sea
son would turn out. " Just before Mr. Har-
ijman'a arrival In Salt Lake , Auditor Hills
of the Shcrt Line had prepared a statement
of the gross earnings of the road for the
month of Juno , 1899 , and for the year ending
with Juno 30 , 1809. This report was one of
the best in the history of the company and
shows an extraordinary amount of business
in the .territory covered by the Short Line.
The comparisons with the business ot a year
ago ara of especial significance. For the
month of June , 1S99 , the earnings were
J711.182.48 ; for June , 1S98 , $601,303.95 , on In
crease of J109.S78.53.
For the twelve months ending Juno 30 ,
1899 , the gross earnings were $7,577,108.38 , as
against $6,317,058.55 for the previous twelve
months , showing on Increase of $1,260,049,83
for the year.
A comparative statement of the gross
earnings of the Oregon Short Line ( or the
paat five years shows a steady and marked
Increase in the amount of business handled ,
and it Is a decidedly Interesting showing. It
IB aa follows :
1899 . J7.577.10S.38

1897 . 6,726.247.59

Kink * In IH | Ilnlluny Mm- .
liTDMARS , la. , Aug. 11. ( Special. ) The
business men of Marcus , Roinsen , Lomara ,
Merrill and the smaller towns on the line
of the Illinois Central between Cherokee and
Sioux City are dismayed nt 'the certain pros
pect of shortly being shunted off the main
Una to a spur. The Central's project of
running a short line between the two last
points Uas been a bogey for scaring bad
children during the last 'twcnty-flvo years ,
but no oao dreamed It over would matoriaf-
Izo.
Izo.The
The cry of "wolf" was louder than ever
this spring , but people wore not disturbed
until the surveyors actually pataed , leaving
a baleful trail behind them. The surveying
was finished some days ago. The now Hue
will form the base ot a triangle of which the
eldea are the old lines. At the apex of the
triangle stands Lcmars , the most Important
town affected by the change. It Is fifteen
tnlh * from the base ,
( Marcus , in Cherokee county , and Ilcmsen
in Plymouth , will be the hardest bit. Tbo
Central Is their only road. They are busy
little towns of about 3,000 population. Their
eole dependence Is the shipping industry.
The dally grain and stock shipments from
these two points la very heavy. The bulk
of thlB business will now be cut off. Lomars ,
with between G.OOO and 6,000 depending on
farming and milling Industries , has two
roads , but the loss of the main Central will
be a severe blow. Merrill wilt h.avo two
northern outlets left and suffers the least
cf the good bhlpplng points by the Impend
ing change.
All of these towns were directly founded
by the Illinois Central r.ml they feel keenly
tbo proposed desertion. "While acknowledg
ing the desirability of the sacrifice , they
wince at being the victim * . The town of
Kinsley , 1,200 , will likewise bo unfavorably
tfvoted by the abort Hue , as It lies Just four
miles south of the survey. The new line
will shorten the distance between Cherokee
nnd Sioux City by about fifteen mllen.
The Central Is straightening out other
kinks on ltd way and wlir come near to
having a perfect air line botwcen Sioux City
and Chicago when all is finished. In rail
road circles thin la well known to be but A
small detail In now far-reaching plans of
the Illinois Central.

that it they are transferred Into Douglas

Ilnnn Albert , the Mnnlclnn , In AVnl-

It was another case of Svengall that cre
ated discord In the homo life of Anthony
Weber. Weber complained to the police
that Hans Albert , the musician , was allenl-
atlng the affections of his wlto by the musi
cal art. This was the excuse he pleaded
for having attempted to trounce the musi
cian on the gross plot In front ot his homo
while the woman In the cast and the
neighborhood looked on.
Both men were brought to the station and
locked up on the charge ot disturbing the
peace by fighting. Weber explained the
trouble by the statement that he returned
homo Thursday night and found Albert
there after repeated Injunctions to stay
away. Ho said he couMn't resist the
temptation to give the musician a drubbing ,
and did so.
Sergeant Whalen , who made the arrest ,
said he saw a crowd in front of Weber's
home , 1903 Leavenworth street , and on
making an investigation found several men
sitting on Weber and as many moro on Al
bert. There had been a fight , the onlookers
explained , and the neighbors had merely In
terfered to keep the men apart.
Weber said that ho objected to Hans Al
bert giving his wife music lessons free.
He had ordered the musician from the house
under penalty of pitching Into him if he
returned , but the threats did not avail and
ho felt compelled < to take heroic measures.
Weber told Albert that he ought to bo con
tent with having had two wlvea and not try
to take his for a third. Both men -were
scratched considerably and Albert's clothing
was .badly torn.
