The Battle of the Gauges.

The Denver Ne1Us gives an ac-
count of a lively contest between
the Denver and Rio Grande Rail-
road marrow gauge) and the Atchi-
son, Topeka and Santa Fe (broad
gauge for the possession of the
Ration pass, on the southern boun-
Diary of Colorado. This pass was
long ignored by the Denver and
Rio Grande people, it having been
their intention TO enter New Mex
leo via the Rio Grande valley, on
the west side of the Spanish range.
They appear to have changed their
plan by crossing the Ration spur
OF the main range of the Rocky
mountains. The road will continue
to skirt the eastern base of the
latter until some point in Cen
traI New Mexico is reached,
when it will doubtless cross to
the westward and strike the
Rio Grande valley at albuquerque,
or some point in that vicinity. AS
the two roads have the same desti-
nation, Ell Paso, Mexico, there will
doubtless be something of a race
between them through New Mexi-
co for the occupancy of the most ia
vorable location. At any rate the
extensive Maxwell grant in New
Mexico will, by this change of
plan, be made valuable as soon as
the railroad passes through it. 1t
once sold for S5,000,000 but lapsed
into comparative worthlessness
under the management of an Eng
lish company. The Ne,Os of the 9Th
says: The danger of procrastina-
lion was strikingly illustrated in
the recent railway movement in
the Ration mountains. The Atch-
ison, Topeka & Santa Fe and the
Denver and Rio Grande people
nave been watching each other for
some time. The latter had determ-
lned upon its route over the summit
Of the Ration. Last Tuesday a.
iofce was sent forward on the reg
uiar train to Ell Moro to occupy the
ground and begin work. It rested
atthe end of the track over night,
intending to move out in the morn
ing. Later the Atchison, Topeka
and santa Fe Company chartered
u Especial train over the Rio Grande
road and sent forward its grading
iorce. This reached Ell Moro about
eleven o'cleck last night. With
ons resting the force pushed for
ward up the Ration sixteen miles,
ana at daylight the next morning
picks and shovels were at work on
the disputed ground, about the
same time the Rio Grande boys
were getting out of their blankets
sixteen miles away. The tunnel
upon which the wide gauge road
mas begun work will be about 2 900
leet long. What the Rio Grande
VIII do Is not yet announced.
