THE COST WILL Be $75,000,000 This is Most Important Raitroad Announcement Since 1907 and Other Roads Are Expected to Follow Suit. New York, Feb. 1.—The executive committees of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific lines voted to com- plete double tracking of the lines from the Missouri river to San; Fran- cisco. It also voted to double track the Oregon Short line from the junc- | tion with the Union Pacific main line at Granger, Wyo., to Huntington, Ore., | also the line along Columbia river in ; Oregon to Portland, a total of 1,673 | miles. s This is the most important an- nouncement of raijroad construction work since the panic of 1907, and is expected to be followed shortly by the news of similar progressive policy | and by other railways systems. | With this appropriation it was | semi-officially announced that the | Harriman lines, will expend over ' %300,000,000 in development through | the sections traversed by the rail- | roads so controlled. | When the work provided for is | completed—five years is estimated as | the necessary period for the work— | the twin rails will cross the continent. | Several roads now have double tracks to Chicago from New York. The Chi- cago and Northwestern has double | track from Chicago to Omaha, where the Union Pacific is to start work. This distinctive sign of confidence | in a returning, renewed prosperity, ; was received joyously in financial circles. In a statement Judge Lovett clearly sets out the reasons for the | great appropriation. The judgment | of past experiences are used as the argument for the future improve- ment. The tone of the statement was commented upon as the most progres- sive that has come from the railroad ' offices in recent years and attracted wide comment. The actions of the other great railroad systems are | awaited with eagerness in the busi- ness sections. - ARE GUESTS AT THE CORN SHOW The American Breeders’ Association | Holding Seventh Annual Meet- ing at Columbus, Ohio.
