PREPARING A PLANT.
Eastern Capital Invested in Car
Works.

A plant for the manufacture of rail
way cars will be located in South st.
Paul. Representative st. Paul capital
lists, who have been Instrumental in de-
yeloping the natural resources Of the
property adjacent to the stock yards,
are interested in the scheme, and
ground will be broken and work COM
menced on the building in the spring.
The open weather so far has sorely
tempted those interested to commence
initiatory arrangements for building
this fall; but the conservative men, who
are in the majority in the scheme, are
averse to this plan of operations, and do
not favor breaking ground before the
advent of warm wheather, when work
will be rapidly pushed and the buildings
roofed before the winter of 1889.
The owners Of car works in Indiana
have received a sufficient guarantee to
warrant their removal to South st.
Paul, and backed by the Chicago, ST.
Paul IL Kansas City railway, together
with the financial Endorsements of the
men of capital who are Interested i'll the
stock yards and distiilery, the manage
nent of the works have decided to
transfer their plant, after thoroughly
looking over tire ground.
The contracts for the drafting Of
plans for the buildings have been let,
and local architect is now buSily en-
gagged upon them. The new car works
will employ about 1000 men. and will
