RAILROADS.
Summary Of Construction for the six
Months Past.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, July 5.-The Railway Age,
giving the summary of railroad building for
the first six months of 1882, says the totals
are astonishing. While only half year is
gone and that including several Winter and
Spring months, when the work of construc-
ton, and especially in the Northern States
generally, has not even commenced, and
while there has been great cry about over
doing railway building and many predictions
of impending financial disaster, we find
track has been laid on at least 179 lines in 81
States and territories, aggregating 1900
miles. These figures do not include sdings,
second or third and fourth tracks, of which
hundreds of miles have been laid. The az
gregate reported for the same period last
year was only little over 1000 miles and
during the same period of no previous year
has it equalled even that in all the Western
and Southern States and territories.
Railway building has been actively pushed,
and except in few cases, where a parallel
or competing road is being built, there is
ample room and need fer all these lines, and
many more even must be built before the
necessities of the country are supplied. With
present outlook we see no danger of ex-
cessive railway building this year. The
total railway mileage Of the United States
is now over 107, 900 miles.
