The recent announcement of Edtvard H.

fornia that the Harrlman expendlturss
for railroad construction In this republic
would probably reach SW.0no.0U) old is
taken to mean that the Southern l-irlMa
will build from Guadalajara to th I'lty
of Mexico. It la also rewarded es glvtii:;
foundation to the rumors of a llari'.mk.i
line along the Pacific coast to i connec-
tion with the Pan-American rallioad and
later thromrh Central America to Panama.
When the Southern Pacific extenslni Is
completed to Guadalajara the new di'Uth-
ern Pacific lines In Mexico will totul
hout 0 n'.llrw. or approximately 14)
kilometer. The estimated cost of these
lines Is i:.000.0i)0 Kold. But for every
kilometer built the Southern Pacific re-
ceives from the federal fcovernment a
subsidy of tl2iOV Mexican currency or a
total for the 1440 kilometers of tS.CKfl.OW
gold Till leave an actual expenditure
of only $16.000000 gold for the Harrlman
Interest. The difference between this
amount and the sum mentioned by Mr.
Harrlman Is sufficient for the construc-
tion of many miles of railroad.
