say the road will swing around to the

est with the thousands of tjes and the
bridge timbers piled up in them Mate-
rial to the value of over 350000 has
been accumulated for the extension It
is said that in a very short time two miles
of track will be laid a day from this end
and that work on the Denver Texas and
Fort Worth from Pueblo is being pushed
rapidly
The statement that the Union depot
was to be moved to the north or north-
west of the present location is corrobo-
rated It is said the depot will be placed
on the vacant cround adjoining Jones
street not far from Seventeenth street
When the change will be made is not
known but there will ba several changes
inrde in depots and yards of the railroad
companies centering here in the next few
months The Texas and Pacific will
probably put in a second track just east
of the crossing with the Missouri Paciilc
and Santa Fe Officials of that road say
this has been needed for some time
Mr John Bcrger a citizen of San An-
gelo who arrived in Fort Worth last
night says the citizens of San Angelo
desire to secure above all other roads the
Fort Worth and Rio Grande for they
recognize the fact that by securing this
one load they get the shortest possible
connections at Fort Worth with all the
leading railroads of Texas A glance at
the railroad maps which are hung in
every San Angelo business house and of-
fice Mr Berger says has convinced tbem
of this fact The gentleman further
states that by honest effort San Angelo
has made herself a great wool market
and if she can get the Fort Worth and
Rio Grande she will be at a jump the first
wool market in Texas
A prominent Fort Worthian says that
the Fort Worth and Southeastern is an
assured fact He points out that Mr
Huntington has only to build 143 miles of
track to unite his Fort Worth and New
Orleans Road with the road runniug from
Beaumont to Woodville and beyond He
says further that had Mr Huntington se-
cured control of the Houston and Texas
Central as expected a short time ago
this road would now be under construc-
tion As stated before this line would
run through the heart of the finest tim-
bered country in Texas besides passing
through several fine towns among them
Fairfield and Crockett The gentleman
who furnished the information given be-
lieves that no matter what takes place in
legard to the Central the road to Wood
ville will be built and that shortly
There is activity all along the route
adopted by the St Louis Arkansas and
Texas from Commerce through Green-
ville Piano and Grapevine to Fort Worth
Committees are busy obtaining the right
of way engineers have begun the work of
crosssectioning the work and the con-
tractors are moving their teams scrapers
and men to tbe front It was stated here
yesterday that Button Lyon who have
the contract for the entire ninetysix
miles had sublet several fivemile con-
tracts and that in a few days the entire
line would be covered by graders On
the 15th Chief Engineer Hinckley will
award the contract for the trestle work

the extension have already been made
Merely a Coincidence
The fact that Fort Worth builds new
railroads and has so many train robberies
is remarkable if not suspicious It may-

a robber and seriously wounded He
sued and got damages tbe com-
pany being held responsible because the
construction of the cars did not afford
sufficient protection The Judges de-
cided that there was a genuine contract
between the passenger and the company
the ticket constituting the written in-
strument and the railroad people were
bound by it not only to bring
the man to his destination but also to
afford him protection during his journey
and they refused to entertain tne question
that the company were obliged to con-
form to the rules of the administration in
rpgard to the model of the cars

An Active ltlval In Canada
Sax Fkaxcisco Cal June 10 The
Canadian Pacific road has taken
measures to compete with its
American rivals for the Chinese
trade in tea silk and other commodities
and is now bidding to secure the subsidy
offered by the New Zealand government
for the transportation of mail matter
through to England The contract is
now held by the Oceani Steamship Com-
pany which with the steamships Ala
niada and Mariposa for the long
voyage across
the Paciilc is
carrying mails between New Zealand
and England In thirty to thirtythree days
The Canadian road has made a bid offer-
ing to run steamers and connecting trains
at such a rate of speed to at the mails will
reach their destination in thirty days a

Tf our Rtate crovemment and nreps I hered
reduction of fortyeight hours In the time
made by Spreckels steamers It has been
suggested that time could be saved by
leaving the mails at San Diego and for-
warding them east by the southern lines
By this means it is estimated that twenty
four hours in through time can be saved
The agent of the New Zealand govern-
ment has recited the advantages of San
Diego as a coaling place for steamers
The New Cotton Belt
We feel warranted in using the
adjective new as applied to this railway
from the facts which the first statement or-
S W Fordyce as president of the com-
pany reveal It was MayllSSG thit the
sale of the old Texas and St Louis Rail-
way Company having been consummated
the St Louis Arkansas and Texas Com-
pany took possession of the lines
At that time the road was of narrow
guage the rails weighed only thirtyfive
pounds to tbe yards and threefiftbs of
them were iron The trestles and bridges
were also In poor condition In the in-
terval the whole property has been well
nigh reconstructed On March 1 of
this year 317 miles of the old rails had
been taken up and replaced with new
fiftysix pound steel rails and the work
is now progressing rapidly upon the re-
mainder of the track The gauge of the
entire system has been raised to stand-
ard measure and new equipment has
been provided Trestles have been
strengthened and renewed and bridges
have undergone material change or have
been rebuilt In erecting machine shops
depots and section houses C3711 have
been expended Thus it appears that
the whole road has had a thorough reno-
vation
To accomplish all this improvement
large sums of money have been required
The change of guase alone involved the
outlay of 82773355 before January 1
1887 and since then this sum has been
increased by 108003
The purchase of 1750201 standard
gauge cross ties at prices varying from
28 to 30 cents cacti was made neces-
sary by the change of gauge
To the work upon trestles and
bridges 82411GC have been devoted
But the renewals and betterments are not
yet done nor will a pause be made until
the roadway is in firstclass condition
from end to end
During the year 1S80 which includes
four months of the operation of the road
under the receiver the gross earnings
were 182ji05j But the operating
and general expenses includ-
ing taxes for ths same period were
1488388 thus leaving net earnings of
8340070 The moss increase in earnings
amounted to 528231 and the net in-
crease to 273025 For the current year
the showing of gross earnings made by
the company is remarkable for their
large gains over 18SG as reported
from week to week Occasion-
ally the increase drops as low as 13 per-
cent and one week it rose to 100 per-
cent but for some time past the gain has
varied from 45 per cent to 50 per cent
and the best feature of the whole situa-
tion is that the road is rapidly being put
into condition to enable it to enlarge its
earnings still further
We took occasion recently to refer to
the new construction of the company in
the southwest It seems that this road
whose early history was so full of vicis-
situde and discouraging events is now
on the way to a high degree of prosperity
indeed has entered upon a most favora-
ble course St Louis Railway Register

HUT THREE VXD OXE HALF HOURS
APART
One of the officers of the proposed new
rapid transit road between New York and
Boston said to a New York Evening Post
reporter the other day It is true that
the plans are all made looking to the
building of a new route between this city
and Boston and the companies formed
The surveys are nearly all completedand
the only thing to be considered now is
the raising of the necessary capital This
is a legitimate scheme and will undoubt-
edly be carried out A number of plans
for another road to Boston have been
started from time to time but have
fallen through because of the opposition
of the Connecticut Legislature tney
were unable to get the right of way
through the state
This difficulty has now been overcome
The Connecticut Air Line Railroad Com-
pany not be confounded with the Boston
and New York Air Line obtained from
the Connecticut Legislature in 1886 an
extension of time to October 22 1S80 to
complete their road There have been a
number of small bits of the road built in-
different places and the whole road is
surveyed The total cost of building the
road and putting it in flrt rate order for
business is estimated at 1254S9 ner
mile or S2294i579 The New York and
Boston Rapid Transit Company will con-
struct the road This corporation has
S750000 capital and it will probably
gain the control of the four roads and
manage the whole line The plans Hied
in tnis city yesterday were for that
part of the road between New
York city and the Connecticut
state line The directors of the
road are William T Black president D
C Lincsley engineer Thomas N
Browne secretary R E Chittenden C
V Siddell Charles D Ingersoll George
B Siddell and Horace II Chittenden
They will soon hold a meeting in New
York when further arrangements will b e
made The road will be 103 miles in
lenuth aud the time between New York
and Boston will be shortened to three and
onehalf nours It will then be possible
for a man to go to Boston in the morning
have the whole day to transact business
and return to the city at night Under
the present system it takes the best part
of two days You may be sure that the
road will be built a3 I can see now no
obstacle in its way

That the bu lding of a railroad from
Texarkana to Daingerfleld will oea profit-
able enterprise to both places there is
no question Our town needs more rail-
roads and more enterprises to bring it
into notice We have inexhaustible
quantities of crude wealth awaiting the
hands of developers In time our iron
stores will be utilized and peo de be
made wealthy Onr citizens now have
the means and ability to enjoy the profits
themselves but tney are lacking in

she is and is now making a city of

their example Penurious conservatism
is a curse s putrid sore on the face of
happiness and prosperity This is a pro-
