CHICAGO. August 3-An Inter- Onsaa
special from Washington says: Jay
Gould, like ether great men, has .
weakness On which be prides himself,
ana that Is passion Tor being mysteri-
QUE. Some Of thoss In his employ are
not so secretive, however. A gentle
man who happened to be in Washing
ton disclosed today one Of the gigantic
schemes Of the Pacific railrosd king.
IL seems that he looked very jealousy
last winter - the progress being made
by the Northern Pacific people toward
| securing an extension of their time for
the construction Of their road, without
forfeiting their immense land grant.
The company succeeded in inducing
the House Committee 70 report in favor
OF . I'VE years' extensioo. which sp-
pears TO have sdmonishesf Mr.. Gould
that il was time to bes,ir himself. He
has decided upon coup fstat which

Pacific enterprise. or else hurry its man.
ayers up materially. Gouid's plan Is
none other than to head Of the new
road by . branch of the Union Pacific
running TO Pues, Sound He has had
the mountains full Of surveying parties
all summer. They have pushed their
explorations rapidly in al directions.
TO discover the best route for the new
enterpsiss, taking Cheyenne - the
starting point. Gould mas two objects
in view; he will get to Puget sound
ahead Of the other fellows with their
road for one thing. but he u also eon-
fident that be can make nalf-w way
stopping. as it were. which will pay,
that is At National Park. in the Yellow
stone. He thinks that he can turn
thousands OF summer Tourists in this
direction. which will insure profit.
able venture thus far. and afford a new
starting point. whence he can push on
across the unknown wilderness to the
Pacific shore. He is looking every day
for bis surveyors Of the first hundred
milss 10 report, ami will decide upon
the course and undertake to build this
much before January LIST next. He
thinks that he will pass within twenty
miles OF Fort Laramie. and thence INTO
the vicinity Of Fort McKinnie, where
the road will lead west through tn Big
Horn country to the Yellowstone Park.
From this point nothing is liked ~ to
the route. but the surveyors are looking
over the country. and it Is believed
that the best track will be discovered
along the Snake river. and across south
OF the Bitter Root mountains. The
speed with which this enterprise 10
pushed from the National Park will
depend somewhat open the progress
made by the Northern Pacific Com.
pany. as Gould's only object is to fore.
stall them or Brighten them into sus.
pensien Of the work IL possible. He
will not easily yield the monopoly
Of the Pacific Coast business. He viii
also branch from the new line near
Laramie tn Dsadwood. thus opening up
the Black Hills by route which viii
make unnecessary the further psrlsy
OF the Chicago and Northwestern road
for the right of way from st Pierre
across the Sioux reservation.
