nav rru.k Line malirsaa.

Some weeks past corps of engineers
under the superintendence of Major
ID. G. Goldman as chief, have been en-
gagged in surveying a trunk line rail-
road across this State two-hundred and
thirty miles In length, commencing at
the State line In Kinsman, Trumbull
county and extending across Trumbull
Portage, Summit. Medina, Lorain,
Huron, Seneca, Hancock, Putnam and
Paulding counties to the State line OF
Indiana. This line follows for about
14O miles the line known as the Clin-
ton Air Line. and Tiffin & Ft. Wayne
II. R., upon which a large amount OF
work was done nearly thirty years ago.
1t is expected that the line, under
the new management of the Western
Reserve Railroad Company, will di-
verge from the old surveyed route at
some point in Trumbull County and
pass through Ravenna, Kent, Cuya-
hoga Falls and Akron, thence to Tiffin g,
Seneca County, thence to Ft. Wayne,
Ind, thence to Chicago.
The Western Reserve Railroad Com
pany was organized to extend trunk
line now under course of construction
across the State Of Pennsylvania,
known as the Pennsylvania Western
Railroad, commencing at the thriving
city Of Williamsport, on the Susque-
hanna River, where the following net
work of Roads from New York and
Philadelphia, with their connections
concentrate, to-wit: The New Jersey
Central; Delaware. Lackawana &
Western; Leheigh Valley. Philadelphia
and Reading, and Philadelphia and
& Erie. The Pennsylvania Western
extends across the central part of that
State by q direct line to point on the
Pennsylvania and Ohio State line, at
Kinsman, where the Western Reserve
r. r. intersects 1t, and forms a grand
trunk line from New York and Phila-
delphia to Chicago and the great West.
This is the shortest line by many miles
Of any one now built or projected with
no grades between Williamsport and
Chicago exceeding 53 feet per mile.
The following table of comparative
distances will exhibit the advantages
of this line:
From New York to Chicago
via HI. r., n. Y. Central
and Lake shore. $50 miles

1t will be observed that the proposed
line Is l49 miles shorter than the N. Y.

shorter than the Erie and Lake Shore
liS shorter than the Erie and N. Y. r.
& O.; 81 shorter than the Pa. Central
& Ft. w. road. aud 2iO miles shorter
than the b. & O.; and with these ad-
of distances and grades it is
believed that the proposed road cannot
fail to meet with favor and be con.
at no distant day.
