meaus Of the connection at TYLER with
the Narrow Gauge. Inasrnuch as Bre-
mcnd's road penetrates the heart Of
the East Texas pineries, it NAV be one
Of our most important feeders:
Colonel Paul Bremond yesterday re-
ceiyed a letter from the
citizens Of Moscow to the
effect that the. have raised the sub
sidy Of $4,000 and are prepared TO
donate depot grounds and guarantee
right Of way through the town, and the
Colonel says that the road will be
pushed forward to that point as rapidly
as possible, as he has 2000 tons Of steel
rails on the road for that purpose. He
calculates to reach there about March
or April He expects in thirty DAYS to
reach Lufkin, point six miles west of
Homer, where he will connect with the
Kansas and Gulf Short Line, this
latter line going thence via Jackson
vile to Tyler, whore a connection will
be made with the Texas and St. Louis
