body of land in the immediate vicinity of
Ogden, was a western bound passenger
last evening.
Anton Burbank, well known in South
ern Arizona sheep circles, passed west

Mr.. George f. Wilson, secretary and
treasurer of the Red Sandstone company.
is in the city, accompanied by his wife.
As in the interests Of Cheyenne THE
LEADER has frequently referred in no
very tlatttering terms to the failure of the
Red Sandstone company to fulfil its con.
tract in furnishing stone for the new union
depot, it is but just to give the company's
version of said failure, as voiced by MIR.
Wilson.
In conversation with the reporter, last
evening, Mr.. Wilson said that the red
sandstone quarry is located at some dis
lance from the railroad, and that when the
contract for the Cheyenne depot was taken
it was with a promise on the part of the
railroad company that a switch be put in.
connecting the quarry with the main line,
and but for this promise, the contract
would never have been entered into. This
promise the railroad has failed to fulfill.
Hence the Red Sandstone company have
been compelled to haul their stone a dis
n of seven miles over rough roads to
reach the point of railroad transit, and
therefore have been unable to fill orders
per contract.

OVERLOADED Coaches.

Complaints are becoming general as to
the overcrowded, overloaded condition Of
the passenger coaches on the Union Pa
cifc trains. Passengers on yesterdays
eastern bound train were especially loud
and bitter in their complaints. They said
that men and women were absolutely
piled into the coaches. The seats were
overlooking, and the very aisles and en-
trance ways were crowded to a Jam. A
very higgledy, piggeldy state was arrived
at, and the cars had more the appearance
Of pens han first class passenger coaches.
The train pulled like lead, and rode like a
lumber wagon.
If these complaints are true, and the
cutlery seems too general not to have con-
siderable foundation, the matter should
be remedied at once. The Union Pacific
is amply able to furnish a sufficient num-
Der of cars for the comfortable transport
tation of its passengers.

The reporter yesterday visited the capi.
tol site to find an active scene in progress
Two large wooden boxes were fnll of
the mixture known as concrete and
this mixture was being vigorously kneodud
together by men with suitable tools. while
from each box wheelbarrows Were cor-
stantly conveying the concrete to the
trenches dug for its reception.
These trenches, filed with this concrete
form the foundation of the capitol build,
ing, and are as firm and solid as rock it.
sell. Contractor Greenlee very kindly
showed the reporter around, thus enabling
his intelligent mind to fix its clingine
grip upon the entire business at one
grip.
The contractor armed himself with a
shovel, and rs his nervous arm struck
fiery sparks from the solid concrete, ex-
claimed: 'See that sir? no sand in that
concrete. Well no." After about half
an hour of this practical and vigorous test
Of the solidity of the concrete, Mr.. Green
lee proposed that the reporter should take
the shovel for a time, but while that
individual was in search OF a capitol arti-
Gle, it was not Of the shovel kind.
The trenches have received the first
layer OF concrete, and the second and last
is well on its way. The stone cutters are

The welcome accorded by the public to
the happy phrase ''chrysalis
wealth, y encourages us to refer to the
structure now arising alongside of the
Union Pacific track, as a ''chrysalis de-
pot This structure will soon break its
swathiDg bonds and appear before the
Cheyenne public full fedged and well
bodied.
On all sides is the process of material.
ization going on. Here rises the tiers of
red sandstone, resting on the most solid
foundations. There is piled huge heaps
of the stone known as gray ashlar, ready
from the chisel and mallet of the stone
mason, to take its place in the growing
walls. The shadow of the great derrick
falls athwart the sturdy forms of the
workmen, as huge blocks of stone are
swung through the air, to be either sub
jected to the work of the skillful tool and
practiced eye, or to add their bulk to the
rising building.
From the carpenter shop comes the
sound of the saw and the hammer, as
large beams are worked into shape or
lighter timbers fashioned. On the cir
cular track cars arc unloading, the vari
Gus materials being placed at the points
called for by the needs of the structure.
Completed doors, window frames. etc =,
lie around, and every thing points to the
early period when the apparent chaos of
the surrounding shall drop away, and the
growing giant shall stand forth complete
and confessed, the Union depot of Chey-

THE DIVISION COMPETITION.


Lieut. Reed, inspector of rifle practice
for the Division of Missouri, was in the
city yesterday, having come here from
Kansas. When questioned by a reporter
for the Bee as to the chances of Omaha
securing the division competition next
year, he said
The situation is Just this: Next year
the division firing will have to be held in
one of five places-the Department of
Texas, Department of Missouri, Depart.
lei of Platte, Department of Dakota,
or in Chicago. Now in the Department
of Texas, there is no suitable place or
range for holding the competition. In
the Departments of Missouri and Dakota.
it will be impossible to hold the shooting,
because each has had the competition fir
ing for the last two years. In Chicago
the government owns no land large
enough for o range.
1T would seem then that the Depart
ment OF the Platte would secure the
honor
We'll, | won't say anything. but you
can draw your own conclusions.
Wi the range at Bellevue be large
enough to accommodate all the soldiers
who will take part in the competition 2'
Amply large enough. 1t is one ofthc
finest pieces OF land in the country for that
purpose. | am delighted with it. When
one considers that in May last not a sin
gle improvement had been made on the
land, the changes that have been brought
about are wonderful. Col Henry, with
his characteristic energy, is going ahead
and making still further improvements in
anticipation of next year shooting.
The fact that the Department of the
Platte is to secure the division COMPETE
ton next year is one of great importance
aud interest to Omaha. This division
competition is a great annual event in
Western army circles, and will attract to
Omaha soldiers from all over this section
Of the West.- Omahn Bcc.

The stone walls of the new Episcopal
church will be completed in two weeks at
the latest. Considerable delay has result
ed from the non-arrival of the building
stonc from the Castle Rock, Colorado,
quarries. Two and a half carloads are
necessary to complete the stone work. OF
these one carload is now in the depot, and
the remainder is on the road.
The brick work will closely follow the
stone work in completion, and the roofing
