gHE DULUTH, HURON AND DENVER.

Judge E. P. Caldwell, of the Du
luth, Huron and Denver, accompa-
MED by Chief Engineer Abbott,
arrived in Sank Centre on Wednes-
day noon, having driyen in over the
line of the proposed road. The delay
has been occasioned by the desire to
secure the best possible line between
Benson and Appleton, and they have
found an absolutely straight line of
twenty-five miles, without the slight
est detection, and with a grade not
exceeding forty-two feet to the mile
Whice is practically a perfect level.
The right-of-way has; been secured
from, Sank Centre to the state line
with the exception of a few pieces
which are held too high, and which
will have to he secured by condemna-
tipn. The price paid has been won
,defully low, taken as whole, as the
utmost enthusiasm for the road was
encountered along the entire line,
many of the farmers giving it for a
mere nominal consideration, if not
freely.
The grading on the line will be
commenced at Sank Centre within
the next thirty days, and pushed with
yigor to completion. Estimates have
been submitted for the entire line
and equipment, consisting of six loc-
emotives; four passenger, two com-
bination,. forty-fye freight, thirty
stock and twenty fiat cars, ming sta
lions with tanks, and all necessary
buildings and equipmenst,the amount
being less than $4,000 mile.
Aeontract has been let for piling,
and other contracts will follow in
near future.
