' A ' sensational report Is current ifl Pacific northwest railroad and finan cial' circles today that- Great Northern's startling advances In thewstock market during the past 'few days is due to Ihe fact that HW has sold the Great Northern's coast fine from Sand Point, Idaho, to the Puget sound to the Chicago & Northwestern railroad. The report reached her through O. W. Moryw, general land and townslte gent for the Chicago, Milwaukee ft St. - Paul railroad at Seattle, but Is doubted by Hill officials in Portland. The Great Northern line from Spokane to Puget sound is considered one of the most valuable . sections- of 1 the . road, running a it does through the great Washington timber . belt ... and from Seattle north into British Columbia. According to this rumor the North western Intends completing a coast ex tension and will build from Seattla to Portland. .. ... At present the nearest thing to a coast extension that the Northwestern haa la its line terminating at Casper, Wyo. When the St Paul announced that It would build a line to the Pacific coast tha . Northwestern was generally credited with having . like ambitions. J. J. Hill's recent announcement that there would be no more Pacific coast transcontinental lines for many years to come -would seem to put a quietus on any talk of a new line, however. , The recent big raise In Great North ern stocks is still unexplained. Great Northern has been the strongest stock on the exchange during this week and yesterday it made an advance of 2V4 points and today went up 3 points more, closing at 2 higher than yesterday.
