Rock ISLAND AND ST. LOUIS RAILROAD
The Central Uinoisian, printed at
Beardstown, in late issue, gives the fol
lowing account of the progress making on
the Southern division of the Rockford, Rock
Island and St. Louis Railroad:
Material and men still arrive for this de.
parLment Of business. This week two OF
| the principal engineers Of the road arrived
| from the upper end of the line, took car
riage and accompanied by Col. Merritt,
started to inspec, the work and route south
| OF here. They will be here again to-day,
when it is expected that they will meet
| Judge Greene, President of the road, who
will also arrive day from the north.
The engine and cars arrived last week at
Peoria, and the master mechanic OF the
road has gone there to load it on the barges
purchased for that purpose. We learn that
three berges of iron have been loaded in
Chicago for this point, and that the com
pany have purchased tug.boat of eighty
tons burden for the purpose Of transport
ing material for the construction of the road,
This being the case, in all probability the
iron and engine may arrive ,hiss week yet
BY their own boats
The buildings here are fast approaching
COMPLETION. The foundation of the round
house is completed. as also that Of the turn
table. and the brick work will soon be com
menced. The water tank which is intended
, to be an Immensely large one, is ready tc
, begin operations, on. -,
Bridge timbers continue to arrive BY the
cargo, and the carpenters are putting then
in shane to load and fit in their places
soon as needed. The ties are now being ia
D ken to their destination ready for the track
g LAYERS. who expect 90 commence their TorE
as soon as the iron arrives.
The whole department OF work moves
!, along. each in its separate groove without
d r-;ction or DELAY, except such delays as are
caused By weather and transportation, and
lint few roads can boast of having accom-
nl;shed as much in the same length of time,
