engine is on the grade. If the road be-
comes the absolute property of the Mil

Milwaukee Sentinel: Preliminary sur
veys for the Wisconsin Central's proposed

This work will probably not be completed
much before January 1st next. Although
the Wisconsin CentraPs officials, when
questioned, convey by their answers the
idea that the question is yet undecided as
to whether the st. Paul extension is to be
made, there seems little doubt but that
work on tie new line will be commenced
as soon as the weather of the coming
spring will permit and that it will be COM
pieted within year from the present
time. The proposed route traverses rich
section of Wisconsin, and its probabilities
as an outlet for lumber for the Northwest
ern market are such as would seemingly
make the N after of Its construction Ger
tainty.
