Mir. J. J. Griffith, the locating en, sineer of the Southern Pacific Com. pany,, is now at Florence with large ;orce of surveyors, which he win use to map out line from that place to
 El Monte. Mfr. Griffith pitched his
 camp at Florence Thursday but did so in a most secret manner, and gave orders that no inklingof their inten lions should be made public. Never 5heless, the announcement was made in the Herald, Thursday morning, thai the camp would be pitched there, though for what purpose could not then be stated. From sources of in formation the responsibility of which can not be doubted, it is now learned that the intention is to build a line of railroad from Florence, through th- Rancho San Antonio the Rancho La Merced, and the Ranch Potre Grande, 70 connect with the main line at FL
 Monte. The object in building tn, line is to shorten the distance on through Eastern freight to the new depot on the Wolskill tract, 10 open up most valuable stretch of country, and to gain an easy access to the com pany's depot without running all tn, company's trains through the streets of this city, and such road will come up to all these expectations. The gra ales from Florence to Fl Monte arc very easy, the country is rich and tn distance is short. While not stated. as fact, it is more than probably, that should the line be constructed as above stated, the proposed "leop'' through East Los Angeles to the new depot will be abandoned. This is only a supposition however, and may no: occur. Should the line from Fl Mont be constructed, all trains coming iron the East will leave the Yuma Division at Ell Monte, and enter this city frou Florence upon the San Pedro Division of the Southern Pacific O., and ruE up Alameda street to the new depot. With this arrangement the only trains that would have to pass through tn, city would be the ones coming frou San Francisco and the north. Il. A Herald.
