a New Railroad for Arizona.

Reports from Chicago have
been current for some days past that
the Union Pacific had determined
10 build an extension 10 the Pacific
coast, in opposition to the Central
Pacific, and another by way of lis
new Oregon branch to the Columbia
river. A Tribune reporter yesterday
asked Mr.. S. N. N. Clark, general
manager of the Union Pacific, what
tru' h there was in these reports. Mr..
Clark stated that there was no foun-
daiion whatever in then, and that
no such extent.on was contemplated.
There was some talk about year
ago about contracting "a line from
one point on the main line of the
Union Pacific in Utah, southwest to
join the Atlantic and Pacific, and
then build jointly to San Francisco.
Since then an agreement his been
made by the Central Pacific, by
which the latter is 10 be used as the
Union racihc western outlet for
number of years, and the scheme of
building an Independent line has
been abandoned. The Atlantic and
Pacific. instead of connecting with
the Union Pacific and building
Jointly to San Francisco, has decid-
cd to build to the Colorado river,
and there connect with new line
built by the Southern Pacific. The
branch of the Union Pacific would
have its terminus at Baker City, as
originally proposed, and there con-
nee. with the Oregon Railway and
Navigation Company's line. The
Union Pacilic's arrangements for
western outlets were so complete
and favorable now that there was no
use of spending more money on new
and independent extensions.

Tho Mining Industry.

Tie Boston I7rauSler, which jour
nal makes a speciality of mining
news, in recent issue AYERS that at
no time for three years has the out
look for the legitimate mining in
dustry been IL ore promising than
at the preseat time. The lumber of
wildcat schemes on the market has
been greatly reduced during the
past six months, and now an enter
management back of it, and that
cannot stand tho most thorough In
vcstiga:ion at the hands of the pub
lie, has little chance for success
either in the New York or Boston
markets. TIE booming" process i.
practically thing of the past; the
public want actual facts and viii,
axe nothing else. Duped already
many times by large promises aud
small fulfilments, They'll invest now
with great caution in any and every
thing partaiuing to mines. But in
this industry, as in all others, the
good proper les hold their own, while
tho wildcat" schemes arc daily
sinking out of sight in way that
is most gratifying to every honest
man. The reports from all the
western mining districts are, at pre-
cnt, of a mos; encouraging character
and If manipulation is now only
kept out of the market, and spccula-
ton not allowed to develope into q
craze, the value of all the frst-class
mining securities, will without
doubt be soon permanently advanced
to e. basis considerably higher than
the present one.

merchant is young woman, named
