CONTRACT LET FOR I1ILL LINE
Second Wyoming- Burlington Will Be
Euilt by Mc Arthurs.
X0 COST THREE OR FOUR MILLION
This Will Establish Male IlrlttW,
Liars Across Wyoming; aad AN
ford Omaha Greater Outlet
to Northwest.
The Burlington has let. the contract tor
building the expensive line from Klrby to
a point west of Shoshonl, Wyo., through
the Big Horn gorge. The successful bid
ders are McArthur Bros., the large con
tracting firm which recently bought out
Kllpatrlck Bros. & Collins and more te-
cently established headquarters In the Mc
Cague block In Omaha.
The cost of this line will be between
$3,000,000 and $4,000,000. making It one of the
most expensive pieces of railroad work In
the west. This great expense Is caused in
a large measure by the fact that for eleven
miles through the Big Horn gorge the line
will have to - be cut along the ledge of
almost perpendicular rocks far enough
above the water of the river that It may
cross the Boysen dam now Installed at
the entrance to the gorge.
The awarding of this contract means a
great deal more than a more short line In
central Wyoming; It establishes a connect
ing link between the Burlington lines of
the Big Horn basin and the Burlington
lines ' In southern Wyoming. It means a
tecond low-grade Una for the Burlington
across the state of Wyoming and a second
line from Omaha to the great northwest
While the contract calla for building the
line only an far south as a point west of
Shokhonl to meet the Northwestern line
from Lander east It Is more than probable
that a working agreement will be ma'de
with the Northwestern whereby the Bur
lington will use the Northwestern from
ShoHhonl to Orln Junction until such time
as the Burlington can build a line of Its
own.
One Line Overcrowded. -
The' Burlington at present has more
business than can be well handled over Its
single track road from Omaha to Billings
and the second line Is a necessity, because
of ths large volume of business which has
been added by 'reason of the new connec
tion of the Burlington with the Great
Northern at Billings by ths Great Falls
cut off.
The new line will open up one of the
grestest health resorts la the world. The
waters . of . Thermopolls arc already far
famed and when thsy are n.edv accessible
by the new road they sr si re to become
popular. A new sanitarium has already
been built at. Thermoplit where the hot
waters boll from the gvound.
Orln Junction is the jjolnt where the Colo
rado & Southern now connects with the
Northwestern. The Colorado Southern
Is . owned by the Burlington, but It has
not been definitely decided whether the
Burlington will build from Shoshonl to
Orln .Junction or to meet the Burlington
at Guernsey.

iURDER CHARGE FOR HENRY
foung Man Technically Held by Coro
ner's Jury at Inquest.
.-WO SAY THEY SAW SHOT FIRED
erueed Is Still at I-arge ana with
Hint is Believed to Be J. W.
Stringer, Wanted as a '
Witness.
Frank I Henry, though still at large
tnd defying the skill of Omaha police. Is
held" on the charge of murder In the
first degree by the verdict of the coroner's
!uiy that conducted the Inquest Into the
death of Maud Henry.
Letltla Clayton, 14 IS Leavenworth street
colored, and Charles H. Johnson, S?2 South
Twentieth street, white, testified that they
iaw Henry kill his wife. Johnson Is the
man who gave chase when Henry fled
from the scene. He testified Henry fired
rive shots.
Johnson, a teamster for the Merchants
Transfer company, gave this testimony:
"I was standing at Fourteenth and Lea
venworth when I heard some quarreling
and walked down between f ifteenth and
Sixteenth on Ieavenw jrth. I found the
quarreling was ut Mi Suatl B Ifteenth street
and then I heard three shots fired, and
saw a woman fall on the porch In the
rear of this house. Henry tan away from
that porch with the pistol In his hand.
He went down Fifteenth and disappeared
in the, alley next to Slxteerth street. I.
with Galloway, Henry's brother-in-law,
and a man named Oardner, ran after
Henry, who then fired two more shots
In the direction of the rear porch. Ws
could not catch Henry."
Letltla Clayton, a laundress, said:
"I was rocking a baby on the porch at
1414 Leavenworth, where I work, and
when I saw an altercation between a man
and a woman over at this house (Indicat
ing the house at SOS South Fifteenth), I
ran out and then I saw Henry slap his
wife In the face. Soon be fired two shots
at her and she fell on thi perch. He pulled
the gun from his pockei and after he had
shot her he ran away and while he rao
put the pistol back In his pocket. He ran
northward on. Fifteenth street."
The man, J. W. Stringer, who also is
said to have seen Henry shoot the woman,
did not appear at the Inquest, nor has he
yet been found. The police still believe he
may be the companion of Henry In his
boat that drifted off leisurely down the
river, affording the alleged murderer a
means of escape from the officers.
Speculation Is rife concerning Stringer's
disappearance. The police declare he will
be put In Jail if caught, as It Is believed he
may be able to give valuable testimony
against Henry, and at least can swear that
he taw the man shoot Mrs. Henry.
Stringer lived at 808 North Eighteenth
street, Just six blocks north of Henry's
home. He Is a painter by trade and was
working for a second-hand dealer named
Simon until he disappeared. Numerous In
quiries for him at his room and place of
work failed to give any trace of him, and
It la said that ha has not been seen by
acquaintances In Omaha since Monday.
