The Broad Gauge Track.

The broad gauge track will be into Grand
Junction on the 18th. When the broad
gauge track is laid by Salida, passengers
and freight going east will have to be trans
ferred at Salida, or going west transfer at
Grand Junction. This is a sad state OF
affairs to contemplate for the Gunnison
country. Other means will have to be en-
ployed in order to bring our coal and coke
into market to compete with the product OF
other localities. We believe the railroad is
considering the method of establishing q
transfer yard at Salida and Grand Junction
for the transfer of trucks under freight
cars, that is, run broad gauge box cars on
narrow gauge trucks over the narrow
guage system. That could be easily done
without very heavy expense by means OF
hydraulic screws. 1t has been done wher
ever the old broad gauge and standard
gauge tracks come together, and we do moi
see why it cannot be done in this case

President Charles Francis Adams
Expected Here To-day.
WHAT WILL THE HARVEST BEs
Round House for Pocatello-Per-
senal and General.

President Charles Francis Adams and
party will probably reach Salt Lake to-
day. The result of his visit will be
awaited with considerable interest by all
connec ed with the Union Pacific in this
city. 1t was limited at the time, the pres
ident left Boston for the west. that he car
ried with him his Official gullotine, which
would be literally and unspringly used
during his trip. So far this assertion has
held good, as we have been notified by the
retirement of G. L. McKib ben, general
purchasing agent of the road, with head
quarters in Omaha, and the appointment
of L. S. Anderson. of Boston, as his sue
cessor, the bouncing of Rufus K.
Choate, superintendent of the Colorado
division, and the appointment of Il. }.
Duncan, general manager Of the Fort
Worth & Denver, to succeed him. The
resignation of Mr. McKibben, it is said,
was the result of personal difference with
Mr.. Holcornb. The trouble dates back to
the time when President Adams counter
manded the circular issued by MIR. Hol
comb, in which Mr.. Charles, of the Burl
ington, was to take McKibben's place. Mr.
Adams overruled Mr.. Holcomb and APP
pointed Mr. McKibben. These changes
promote o. o. Winters to the place made
vacant by Duncan.
In this connection it may not be amiss tt
state that for several days past it has beer
pretty generally understood in railw aJ
circles that an effort has been made by Ger
tain people looking to the reinstatement O.
MIR. Parker, assistant general freight ant
passenger agent of the mountain division
of the Union Pacific. just what trutt
there may be in the statement we do no
know, but it comes to US from gentle
man who claims he was approached on thu
subject, that a letter has been prepared ant
will be presented to Mr.. Adams, in which
is made the statement that Mr.. Parker ha
not been fairly treated; that the reasons
assigned for his removal were not baset
upon the facts in the case, ant
that if his removal is in
sisted upon certain patronage will be with
drawn from the road and turned over +
its rival.
We say now, we do not know that thi
is the case, but merely give the rumor TO
what it is worth. The arrival of tho hi
chiefs will probably settle the matter.

Baggage Lost in Sleeping Cars.

A decision that will interest every trav-
eler has been rendered by the supreme
court of Nebraska. a man who had occu-
pied berth in sleeping car during the
night, got out at station in the morning
to get his breakfast. When he returned he
discovered that his overcoat, which he had
left in tie seat, was gone and was not to be
found. He sued for the value OF it and
got a verdict. The supreme court holds
that sleeping car company renders SER
vice similar to that of an hotel keeper, and
is subject to the same liabilities 1t says
"a passenger on entering sleeping car
as a guest-for that is what he is in fact
necessarily must take his ordinary wearing
apparel with him and some articles for
convenience, comfort and necessity. The
articles, when placed in the care of tho
company's employees are at the company's
risk. The liability of innkeepers is imposed
from considerations of public policy as a
means of protecting passengers against the
negligence and dishonest practices of the
inn keeper and his servants The
porter meets the traveller at the door and
takes whatever articles he may have with
him. He waits upon him and the other

The Boise and Lewiston Branch of the UAion
Pacific Railway.

Previous to the year 1890, four surveys
had been made, starting from different
points in southwest Idaho, extending over
the range separating Idaho and Boise coun-
ties, down to the Camas plains, to the
Clearwater river and Lewiston.
These surveys have all been under the
direction of the Union Pacific railroad. A
fifth survey, running as near due north
from Boise as is practicable, is now under
way: the purpose in this case being to keep
as close as possible to the mines OF Boise
county, the forests of the upper Payette
and The rich farming region of Long val
ley.
Such road would bind all Idaho to-
gether in a peculiarly valuable way. The
movement made years ago to divide the
territory of Idaho, now happily part of
history but no longer having any support,
was based upon the supposed impassability
of the mountain range forming the north
boundary Of Idaho county. But several
openings have been found where a railway
can be constructed at reasonable cost.
Such road will always have large pas
senger business. Communication between
north and south Idaho now requires a
detour of 500 miles outside Of our common
wealth: travel is limited 10 actual neces-
sity. Give us a railroad connecting the
railway systems Of north Idaho with the
capitai city, and the intercourse between
our fellow citizens of different localities
would multiply ten-fold. The cost of
transacting public business would be
enormously decreased.
Besides this the mines of Idaho county
would at last have their chance to demon
strate their value. For fifteen years the
ore of the great Warren district has been
packed on the backs of mules $50 miles
and yet with exhorbltant costs loading
that section from every sourca ifs minec
have always been profitable, and work in
them has never ceased when the weather
permitted it to continue.
We believe-and all railway authorities
concur-that railway between Boise and
Lewiston viii have paying business from
the day it is thrown open to the public
and that all along its route will grow
towns and villages, and enormously In
creased population and wealth-Bois

passengers in the car so long as they re-.
main therein. The traveller is not required
to sit in his seat during the day, but may,
if he SO desires, go forward into the other
cars Of tie train, and at stations may go
out on the platform. His property is left
in the Gust dy of the company, which Is
liable for its safe-keeping.
This decision viii be of special interest
to lawyers throughout the country. as tae
question was new one in Nebraska, and
in many other states has not yet been
passed upon.
