ALONG THE RAIL.
The Southern Pacific Disturbed
Over an Advertisement.

Southern Pacific officials are much dis
turbed over the advertising enterprise of the
Atlantic and Pacific Company. The new
depot building at the ferries is adorned
with an immense sign, which reads some
thing like this: THE Atlantic aud Pacific
Railroad C0mpany-the most popular line
to all points East" The Southern Pacific
people made an investigation yesterday and
learned that the Atlantic aud Pacific had
secured the advertising privilege at the new
building for four years. There were rumors
of an Injunction yesterday, and still worse,
that the Southern Pacific would get even
with the Atlantic and Pacific by running
Eastern passenger trains into this city by
bringing them across the bay on the big
freight-bOats.
Owing to the washouts on the Sunset
route, between New Orleans and Lafayette,
the Southern Pacific Company has built a
slip about twenty miles west OF the Cres-
cent City. The work on the new slip was
completed yesterday, and trains were run
on To ferry-boatS, carried across, placed on
the Mississippi Valley road and run into
New Orleans. BY the change the distance
to New Orleans is increased four miles, but
the new route is considered safer than the
old.
The annual meeting Of the Directors of
the Southern Pacific Railroad Company will
be held on April 8th, when 1t Is expected
that Coils p. Huntington will make re-
port in reference 10 his recent conferences
with Jay Gould and other railroad mag
mates in the East. Some important matters
will be considered at the meeting, and
among other things the scheme for the
pooling of the issues of the Southern Pa
cifC. Union Pacific and Missouri Pacific
will receive consideration.
a party of one hundred excursionists ar
rived from the East yesterday over the
Atlantic and Pacific road, and another party
started eastward from the city over the
sa me line. The party will be under the SUI
pervson of Michael Brown, city passenger
agent, as w. NJ. Burns, the regular excur-
sion agent, is very sick and unable to attend
to his duties. Through excursion parties
from Chicago and other Eastern points to
this city will be run weekly by the Atlantic
and Pacific Company.
Information was received here yesterday
that snow is causing considerable delay in
railroad traffic in Colorado. Several trains
on tile central branch of the Missouri Pacific
are laid up between stations in snowdrfts.
One train is delayed by drift near Bent
ley, and it was reported that Union Pacific
train was detained near Ellsworth A Sc
