the junction with the Southern Pacific is effected,
trains can run through direct from Chicago to San

of the existing Pacific roads and will be Of great adj
vantage shippers by forcing low rates for freight
and passage. The managers Of the St. Louis and
Iron Mountain and South road are negotiating for
consolidation with the Texas and Pacific line. and as
this is heing built by the Pennsylvania Railroad
