Railroad Items Gathered by a Beo Reporter- The B. & M. railroad has for about eight months been pushing its exten- sion to Denver with wonderful enter. prise and now it is ina fair way to completion. In the month of Augustlast year work was commenced at the west line of Red Willow county, Nebraska, a distance of 247 miles from Denver, and now it is announced that the ex- tonsion will be completed the last week in May and will be ready to carry freig"t business by June lst. Owing to the company haviug some new sleepers and day coasches made expressly for this extension, the passenger trains will not be run until July 1st, when everything will be finally completed. The construction of the extension has taken 232 working days, an ever- age of over a mile a day and very little time has been list duriny this work. The B. & M. railroad company have shown unusual enterprise in the carrying out of this great enterprise and when the short time is taken into consideration it must be ad- mitted that the feat will stand foremost umon%’the instances of remarkable railroad building of the age. When the line is opened a lively time may be nnticlbnte«r, and it is the intention of the company to run some excursions to Denver, which will no doubt be found a great convenience to the traveling public. PAST TIME, The Union Pacific managers are tickled over the runs made by two of their trains since Saturday last. The Denver train which was held in Omaha three hours and ten minutes over time for the Barrett par- ty, arrived at North Platte only forty- flive minutes late, and of couvse went into Denver on time, They could have done still better with ease, they say. This shows the ability of the road to shorten the schedule time of not only this but overland trains sev- eral hours, and this will probably be done in the next sixty days. The Denver run can easily be made in fif- teen hours, Paymas'er Josslyn's train left Oma- ha at 65:20 a. m, yesterday, made the run to Columbus, ninety-one miles, in exaetly two hours and a-half, includ- ing stops. NATIONAL MEDICAL ASSOCIATION, The Sioux Oity route has arranged to carry delegates having certificates from the s cretaries of the state medi- cal societies to St Paul and return at two cents per mile each way, to attend the meeting of the National Medical Association, which meets in 8t. Paul the first Tuesday in June, These tickets will be on sale av Counch Bluffs and all principal points on the Sioux City & Pacific railroad in Nebraska and JTowa, As this in the only through train line to St. Paul now equipped with elegant new Pullman palace sleeping caré on evening trains north every day in the week, it is expected a crowd will go, Those wishing to procuro sleeping cars should give all possible notice ahead 8o extra accom- odations can be furnished, It would be better if state or local societies would take action in this matter and g9 in a body. This will enable the road, if notitied in time, to get extra sleeping car accommodations. As there will be about one thousand medical gentlemen in attendance, coming from all sections of the coun- try, from New York to California, it will have great interests for members ', TELEGRAPHERS, We are glad to learn that Senator Allen, of IlLinois, late *‘press” oper- ator in the telegraph office in this cit{, has been appointed station agent at Hutton, vice Mr. Dorr, resigned,— Laramie Boomerang.

GLADSTONR'S RELIEF BILL. Loxpax, May 16.—In the house of commons this evening M. Giadstone introduced his Irish arrears of rent bill.

Fhe arrears are to be extended to June 20th, 1883, Irish church fund is cal- culated to yield £1,600,000, while application for clearances of arrears o}) rent, it in estimated will amount to over £3,000,000.
