Ir Jlltl was' bofn near aueloh. Welling
ton CCmhty, Ontario, Canada, on September
M, 183?. lie was the son of James nnd
Awo tronbaf) Jllll. His childhood was
fcfMht In Canada. From his 7th to his 15th
ye!1 he attended Rockwood Academy, a
Quaker school. Ho Intended to study medl-
MHct but His ratner aiea in inoi ana in a
young marl took a job In a country store.
u After surveying the field of the vhoIe
lotted states' he selected St Paul, Minn.,
' m the best place for his start In life. In
JW5 he seeurW work there as a shipping
clerk. He was a man who thought a great
deal about his Work. He studied transpor
Utfoh and fuel problems carefully. Within
'a year" he set up In business for himself.
He became a steamboat and rallwny agent
In. 1870. with a partner, he built a steam
boat for Use on the lied River of tho North.
This brought him Into competition with
the powerful Hudson Bay Company. The
great corporation soon found the struggle
too hard and took Mr. Hill Into Its own
service, putting him In charge of the com
pany's Interests In that district.
He was the first to take coal Into St
Paul, and he opened tho first communica
tion, between St Paul and Winnipeg, then
Fort darry, In 18J2,
His great opportunity camo In 1873 and
he seized It eagerly. The discredited St
Loiils and Paclfta Railway went Into a re
ceivership. It was $33,000,000 In debt.
Mr. Hill took charge of this sick patient
and nursed It back to ruddy health. In
1?7S, with Donald A. Smith, George Stephen
and Norman Kittson ho secured complete
control nnd the line was reorganized In
1ST0 as the St Paul. Minneapolis and
Manitoba- Railway Company with Mr. Hill
aa general manager. He became president
In 1883,
Mr. HlU now proposed a railway from
the Great Lakes to the Pacific. Many
thought him visionary. He paralleled the
Northern Pacific, which had been assisted
by tha United States Government, and the
Canadian Pacific, which had received vast
grants from Canada.
Without one cent of State or Government
money, tho Great Northern system was
constructed. From 18S0 to 1833 6000 miles
o'f track wera built and equipped.
It was built at; tho rate of nearly ,a mile
a day for every day of Mr. Hill's control
and extends from Lako Superior to Puget
Sound.
ORGANIZED TWO FLCETS.
In addition. Mr. HlU organized a fleet
on tho Pacific and another on the Grent
takes as feeders to his railway. His Lake
boats surpassed In speed and size any built
Mr. HlU accepted no salary. While build,
lng up fortunes for htmselt.and other share
holders, ha created more than a billion In
realty values for settlers along his line.
Mr. HlU worked and studied constantly,
until he was an expert In almost every
phase of the geography, minerals, water,
population and resources of every part of
the Northwest , , ,.
Ha was singularly felicitous In dealing
with his employes and had but one serious
In 1901. with J. Plerpont Morgan and
others. Mr. Hill's Great Northern and the
Northern Pacific Railway bought a large
share of the Btock of the Chicago, Burling
ton and Qulncy Railroad Company, com
prising nearly 9000 miles of track.
About the same time Edward H. Har
, -H nMfaf. 4n thA Union Pacific
Railway acquired a majority of the stock
bl the Northern Pacific.
A fight between the JKarrlman Interests
and the Hill-Morgan interests for the pur
chase of Northern Pacific common stock In
the open market brought about the panic
of Slay 9, 1901, when the stock went to
$1000 a share.
By exercising a right to retire the North
ern Pacific preferred stock the Hill-Morgan
group, which controlled the copimon, won
the right
Mr. HlU now organized and became presi
dent of the J100.000.000 Northern Securities
Company, which was to take over Great
Northern and Northern Pacific stock of the
Hill-Morgan group and also the Harrlman
holdings In Northern Pacific.
This resulted In a Federal anti-trust suit.
President Rooseyelt ordered tho Govern
ment prosecutors to take action. The case
was taken to the Supreme Court, where in
1901 tho combination was held Illegal. The
Northern Securities Company's stock hold
ings were distributed among the stock
holders. HELD BURLINGTON CONTROL.
But the Great Northern and Northern
Pacific continued to control the Burlington
and all three roads prospered. The terri
tory along their lines developed rapidly.
Mr. Hill never gave up his work on ac
count of age and labored faithfully to the
last , . ,
The secret of his success lay largely In
his Ingenuity In devising and adopting
standards for railway location, construc
tion and operation. He revolutionized the
American railway Industry and brought
(costs of transportation by rail far helow
the level of foreign countries.
He was a great believer In low grades,
heavy power, large capacity cars and big
(rain loads and he lived to see his principles
universally accepted.
In his later life. Mr. Hill was a great art
connoisseur, and throughout his career he
found time for extensive reading. He had a
fln$ collection of paintings of the modern
French school.
His charitable gifts were many. He sup
ported especially MacAlestcr and Hamllne
cql leges,
His broadmlndedness was attested In St.
Paul Theological Seminary, an Institution
to train men for the Roman Catholic priest
hood. Although Mr, Hill was not of (hat
religious faith, he built this school and
completely endowed it. at a cost of $500,000.
He married Mary Theresa Mehegan, of
St, Paul. August 19, 1867, and was the
father of nine children, three boys' and six
girls.
Hill and his family have for years been
sheltered from the curiosity of the public
It Is known, however, that his home life
was Ideally simple. His biggest deals, were
made only after consultation with his wife.
Their tastes were very simple. They lived
In a small home until a comparatively few
years ago.
Hill and King Albert of Belgium were
warm personal friends.
The sons have figured prominently In
railroad work. Louis W, Hill is president
ef the Great Kprthern and the First Na
tional Bank of 8t Paul, and is looked on
M his. father's logical successor In the finan
cial world. James N. Hill, the oldest son.
was, .for a number of years vice president
of tha Northern Pacific. At present ha Is
New York representative ef the Hill inter

Hill's ten days' lllnefes cost nt leant $26,000,

from Chicago Saturday, costing $2100, was
to get two ounces of sedatlre that was
never used, The train was pulled by the
heaviest mnd fastest of Burlington engines
nnd had full right of track. It consisted
of two coaches and art engine. The dis
tance of 431 miles from Chicago to St.
Paul was made In 183 mInUteB. From

In 126 minutes; This specfnl broke all
Chlcago-St Paul speed records.

PUBLIC HEARING ON CLAY SUIT
Councils' Law Committee Will Listen
to Arguments Today on Plan
to Settle Dispute
Councils' Committee on Eaw will hold
a public hearing today on the suggestion
of City Solicitor Connelly that the civil
suit of the city ngnlnst former Director
of Public Safety Clay nnd John R. Wig
gins, a contractor, for alleged overcharging
In contracts, be settled for $40,000. John
J. Conroy, chairman of the committee, will
preside.
The claims against Clay and the other
defendants total, more than $200,000. It
Is doubtful, Mr. Connelly said, that the
city could recover any part of this claim,
and he advised the settlement. Former City
Solicitor Michael J. Ryan, who Instituted
the case against Clay and the others, de
clared that to accept such an amount was
out ot the question, and that the city should
push the case to couyt. Under his admin
istration, Mr. Ryan declared, an offer to
settle for J126.000 was made. This had
been denled-iy counsel for the defendants.
Mr Ryan Is expected to appear nt the hearing.
LABOR WILL SUPPORT
DEMANDS OF CARMEN
Central Union Takes Up Trolley
men's Grievances Against
Transit Gompany
Organized labor In this. City has put
Itself on record 'as Indorsing the demand 6f
union employes of tho Philadelphia Rapid
Transit Company for higher wages and Im
proved working conditions, and pledged Its
support to the trolleymen In nnv steps they
may deem necessary to talte. Horry F
Flynn, president of Division 477, the local
branch of tho Amalgamated Association of
Street and Railway Employes, nppeared bo
fore the Central Labor Union and the Labor
Trades Council and attacked Thomas C.
Mitten, president of the Rapid Transit Com
pany, for his refusal to meet a committee
sent to lay the proposition before him. He
openly declared that unless Mr. Mitten
changed his attitude n strike by tho union
employes could not be averted.
The demands, which call for a flat rate of
40 cents nrQour for motormen and con
ductors, the-abblltlon-'of the swing-run sys
tem and full recognition of the union, were
adopted at a mass-meeting attended bjr,
2500 union trolleymen two weeks ago. Reso
lutions of Indorsement and pledges flf sup
port were passed by both bodies.
Flynn fcald yesterday that all arrange
ments had been made for a final maBS
meeting of the union trolleymen and that a
date and hour had been fixed, but he re
fused to make the date public until notice
had beep oftlclally sent out to the union
members. 'At thler meeting, he said, the whole
question would be put up to the union car
men. If they voted to strike, he said, there
would be a strike, If not, all would be
peaceful. Flynn asserts that three-fourths
of all the Philadelphia Rapid Transit em
ployes have been organized by the Amal
gamated and are members of Division 477.
Carmen not members of the union, how
ever, dispute this statement. They declare
that not more than 3000 names are on the
union Hats. There are 6300 in tho com
pany's empioy,
P. J, ,Shea, national vice president of the
Amalgamated Association, who directed the
trolley strike In this city In 1910, Is In
IVtlladelphla working with Flynn and the
division officers.
Flynn was asked yesterday either to con
firm or deny the persistent rumors to the
effect that a strike of the trolleymen will
be called tomorrow morning. He refused
to answer the question, but said a mass
meeting of the unionists could be held on
21 hours' notice and that a strike vote
then would result In an Immediate walkout.
He said the company was preparing for a
strike and that Its representatives already
have seeuhlgh city offlcials to ascertain
how far the police will go to break it up.
He also bald the company was putting the
old loth and 11th streets car barn, at 11th
and Dauphin streets, In shape to accom
modate strike-breakers'. It was learned that
platforms have been tiullt over the pits
in the barn, but It could not be ascertained
