The Chicago, Texas n Mexican Central
Railway.

The line Of this road has, been located
from Dallas to Cleburne, in johnson coun-
ty, a distance of fifty.iour miles. Its bed
has been completed to Alysrado, in John.
son county, forty-two miles from Dallas,
and is now ready for the ties and iron The
bridges upon this portion of the line have
all been completed, save onc--the iron
bridge which Is to span the Trinity river.
The work Of constructing this bridge is
being pushed vigorously, and will soon be
ready for the crossing of trains. The grad.
ing Of the road bed from Alynrado TO Gle
burne will soon bo completed, and the
whole line to Cleburne ut once put in opera
ton. Sufficient track material has been
purchased 10 place the road TO Clebumo In
ilrst-clnss condition for carrying passengers
md freight, The necessary engines and
rolling stock have been supplied for the
operation the roal a corps Of engineers
has been placed on tho line northeast from
Dallas, TO connect with ST. Louis, and con.
siderable work has been done In preliminary
surveys, and In procuring right-of-way.
Very many OF the most enterprising citi-
zens along the proposed line have mani
tested their interest In this great competi-
tive line in granting the company the right
of.way through their premises.
IL is the pdrpose of the company Ia
place the line northeast from Dallas under
construction at as early day as practicable,
and give to the people Of central and south.

The Directions they Run and their Exten.
sions and Construction.

Texas has since the war become to be one
Vt the great railroad states of the union
Daring the past two years this character OF
enterprise in the state has been given new
impetus owing to our commercial impoJ-
lance, the immensely of our products and
"ur geographical locality as the connecting
section between our home system of roads
ana that being iuaugurated and developed
in our sister republic of Mexico, and
as highway ovor southern
quite between the Atlantic and Pacific.
Our stD.e is so large that it swallows up four
or five thousand miles of railroads without
there seeming ~ be much, or even an APP
proXimate degree giving tho state as q whole,
abroad facilities, but by reference TO the
'oads below enumerated and outlined, it
will be seen, that in all the populated por-
ton Of the state, roads run, doing an I'M
Ineusity of business and giving trSnspOrta-
lion advantages and ConvenienceS little
Inferior to those of any state in the union.
From the north to the south traversing the
entire state, we have one grand trunk
line, and these by the connections of other
roads we have in more round about

the same, we nave, completed, ana being
completed what we may claim as three
trunk lines from east to west, across the
state,and then. we nave branches OF these
trunks trayerSlng the country IN various di'
;;ectlons; and then we have other trunk
INES following other points OF TIE compass
through the state, with Their branches, I'M
vi we have a system OF roads forming per-
'ect network, great highways Tor the pro
lucts and commerce OF our great and grow;

East Line a. Rod River,

This road runs from Jefferson to Green.
vile, in Hunt county, q distance of lA
miles. 1t is the enterprise exclusively, we
may say, Of liberal and wealthy citizens of
Jefferson. 1t is narrow gauge, the gauge
being three feet In the past year 81 miles
Of road have been built. 1t has six locomo-
tives; two passenger coaches; one baggage,
mail and express cas one combination car;
twenty box cars; seventy fiat cars; one en-
CINE house and necessary machine, repair,
car and paint shops. 1t has twenty officers,
agents and clerks; nine conductors and
brakemenS six engineers and firemen; five
mechanics and sixty road foremen and Ia
borers. During the year past its passen-
ger trains ran 1884 miles; its
freight trains 9,672 miles and its mixed
trains 46,s72 miles. 1t carried during tho
year 6,039 tons Of through freight and IA
800 tons of way or local freight. w. M.
Harrison is president of the road James
p. Scott, yice-presidont; John Il. Flynn
general manager, and the directors are, w.
NJ. Harrison, w. b. Ward, II. J. Rogers, ].
p. Scott, John G. Brown, George Noble and
w. Ii. Newman. There is but little doubt
that Mr.. Gould in the past few months has
purchased controlling interest in this
road, and that it will be changed to STAN
dard gauge and become part of his sys-
TEN Of roads in Texas. From Greenville
it is very apparent that tho road will be ex-
tended to Dallas.
