SAN Francisco, November IA
Chicago special quoting from a Tribune
interview on the projected Usi..d
States Central Railway, says Charles l.
Easton. one OF tho attorneys FIR IL
road, stated that be represented syn-
dictte Of English capitalists who lew
ye..rs ago Waited Cal,fernia and ex-
amined the route of the proposed road.
Surveys had been made and all the road
asks Is the right Of way. No subsidy
will be asked for. The projectors of the
road are engaged in an individual enter
prise and will not seek national aid. The
route lies through extensive and rich
mining regions in which these capitalists
are interested, and they want to de-
velop those regions and open up the
mines. But as they desire to have a
road connecting somewhere they have
designed to make continental road
Of it. Arrangements have been made,
and as soon as the South Pacific Coast,
Ocean Shore and other roads and fran
chises that have been received, are con
soIidated the work will begin, which will
be about next spring. Mr.. Easton de-
clined to give the names of the members
Of the English syndicate he represented
or state the amount of their stock. He
stated that he also represented o party
of German capitalists. 7. H. Goodman,
General Passenger Agent of the Central
Pacific, now attending meeting in this
city, when questioned said that such
road had. been contemplated for several
years BY Messrs. Walker & Bridges;
that the road sought to enter san
Francisco BY the Ocean Shore route
from Santa Cruz up to North Beach,
where would be its terminal facilities.
Mr.. Goodman was under the impress
sion that this route had been abandon
ed and they were now seeking an en-
trance over the South Pacific Coast rail-
road which runs through Santa Clara
valley to Alameda From there they
would cross to San Francisco by ferry
boats. This road is owned by Senator
Fair and Mr.. Flood, aud it is likely the
projectors will endeavor to get it. In
answer to the question as TO whether he
thought Senator Fair and Mr.. Flood
were interested in the enterprise, Mr..
Goodman said they were not probably
interested further than in selling their
foad.
