Grading was commenced on the B.
& M. near Dudley on Tuesday by Con-
| tractor Mears, who holds the contract
for the first four miles on the south
end. The unfavorable character Of the
weather has had the effect of retarding
operations, and a number of grading
outfits arriving early in the week, had
not commenced work at latest advices.
AS soon as the weather will permit the
dirt will be flying high all along the
! line.
The Gillette (B. & NJ survey party
have been running preliminary lines
down Laughing Water north of this
place during the past few days with a
view to making certain desirable chang
es in the original location of the route
After the completion OF this work, this
party, we are informed, will go to work
on the extension Of the main line be-
tween Newcastle and Buffalo.
A party of twelve b. & M. surveyors
came in Saturday from the line ON the
Buffalo extension northwest Of New
castle, TO engage in cross-sectioning the
line south of this city, four of whom are
stationed four miles out from this place,
and the balance at Point of Rocks,
twelve miles distant from here.
A Pioneer reporter was told last even
ing of q private letter from Senator
Pettigrew to a resident Of this city,
directing the latter to quietly enquire
on what terms right of way through
Deadwood, for the Midland Pacific, can
be obtained. The letter does not
mention that the road will go through
Rapid.-Pioneer.
Last Monday John L. Larimer pulled
out with the first outfit to-commence
grading on the 100 mile contract of the
Buffalo extension from Newcastle, given
to Fitzpatrick Bros. & Collins. Half
dozen other outfits have arrived and
gone to the front. 1t has been found
convenient to do the first grading on the
Belle Fourche sixty to eighty miles
northwest Of Eewcastle.-Ne wcastle
