The regular southbound train on the Utah
& Northern road left the depot yesterday
morning at half-past four o'clock. The, for
the present, IL the schedule time for the de-
parture of the morning train the evening
train arriving at half-past ten o'clock. Tho
present schedule time for the arrival Of the
night train at Silver Bow junction is $50
p. m. an allowances Of forty minutes time be-
ins made for the run from the Junction to
the Butte depot. OF course when the track
has b. en- in use for some weeks the time will
be materially reduced, il not abridged by
half. The caution which suggests slow rum
ming over the newest portion OF the track is
fully jus.ife d by public opinion. The regu-
lar passenger train now consists Of . postal
car, two passenger coaches and . Pnllaan
sleeper, the latter az elegantly and con-forta-
bly, fitted up 10 are tho largest sized broad
guage sleeping cars.
Assoon as tho rapidly increasing travel on
the road warrants the addition, another first
class passenger coach will be put On.
The branch road Of the Oregon shortiine
will shortly run into Bellevue, Wood River.
The incorporation Of the Central Pacific
Railroad Company Of Utah was perfected
last Monday in Salt Lake City. The organ
ization now made covers the proposed route
from CoriRne, Utah, to Iankton, Dakota,
running through the Territory of Utah.
From the Salt Lake Tribune Of the 18th inst.
we lear thai the preliminary surveys are all
rrade, the capital subscribed, and the amount
required by law 10 deposited in this city. The
incorporators are Charles Croker, Charles +.
Croker, Willard B. Huntington, A. N,
Towne, all of California, and Thomas Mar.
shall, Harry T. Duke, John T~isrnan, Johr
E. Deoly, John G. Royle, William c. Hall
Martin K. Hardness and James w. Guthrie
Of this Territory. OF these, Charles Crock
or is President, J. E. Dooly, Vice-Preslden
and Thomas MARSHALL, Secretary and Treas
urer.
The survey of the route runs northeas
through Box Elder, Cache and Rich coun
ties, to a point ON the north and south boun
D Diary, between Utah inc Wyoming, wher
, the Gear river crosses said line and near tn
intersection of said line, with the third stand
a ard parallel north Of Salt Lake base, a
shown on the official map of the Unite
States Land Department. The road will b
e ITO miles in length in Utah, and it is expect
ed that it will all be completed to the COS
f,lds in Wyoming in 1882. 1t will form
o link in the Central Pacific rans-continent
n road from San Fraucisco Bay to the Misssul
river, and, when completed, will make ar
other eastern outlet for Utah, direct with tn
Atlantic States. 1t can be made, il its man,
gers SO decide, an unqualified blessing to tn
whole West. The building Of the Utah lin
will furnish a ready market next year for tn
surplus labor and supplies OF the three uta
counties through which it is to run.
The Granger division Of the Union Pacif
" railroad is expected to be completed to Woo
River by next summer, and is now With
eighty miles Of it's objective psiut. From tt
. Wood River Miner of the 18th inst. we lear
that Q. p. Tatro, postmaster at Bellevue, an
E. G. Headrick, his deputy, came up
Haley Monday with Colonel George Wo'cot
Surveyor in Chief Of the Union Pacific Raj
way Co., anu "A. liz nsoplsoh, llsht-ol-"S
. agent, GA so voyage of discovery" as the
s termed it. They took a run ever the gronn
u set apart for railroad depots, freight office
u side tracks, etc, and also made a trip to IL
4 leading producing mines OF Bullion. The.
railroad men are very tasorably lmpresss
: with the appearance OF things III bulllo
" camp as we'll as in and aboat HALEY. Th
~ seems to be the objective point for all passel
III GER and freight business Of the road, wtlc
q greatly tavers the assertion already made
y the Miner that Hailey will be the sarmlnt
h' Of the Wood River railroad.
