AhebhfCL eIhO NOhCA0l MAN
ager Wade, of the Santa F6, returned
yesterday from San Diego. Mr.. Marvel
had evidently lost flesh during his sta y
in the city of Baynclmate, and his face
bore two or three new wrinkles, and his
hair was tinged with gray; but the gen
eral offices will remain in Los Angeles,
and the Temecula canon route will not
be rebuilt.
Mr.. Marvel will start today on his
way home. 1t can be stated on excel
lent authority that he is we'll satisfied
with the prospects for business in
Southern California, and that as soon as
his company has any money, or can
float the necessary securities, that
several new branches will be built.
Among those seriously contemplate d
are: A line to Chino; a cutoff to Elsi-
more and the tin mines; branch to
Santa Monica. The Temecula cailon
route will not be rebuilt, though the
western end may be extended so as to
get to the open country to the west.
Mr.. Marvel is more than ever before
satisfied with Mr., Wade's management,
and considers that gentleman railroad
genius.
THE TERMINAL RAILROAD.
The Terminal railroad company is
proving. to be one of the most pushing
institutions in Southern California, and
bids fair to become one of the most i'm
portant, says the Santa Ana Press.
Whatever is undertaken, is faced stead
lily forward to success. There appears
to be no lack of money, which is anoth-
er great essential in accomplishing its
object.
There are few to doubt that this So
called Los Angeles terminal is in reality
the Union Pacific, and that before any
great lapse of time direct line will be
constructed through the mountains and
over the deserts that intervene between
Los Angeles and Salt Lake. A large
amount of work has been done from Salt
Lake in this direction, and engineers
have been looking through the noun
tains back OF Pasadena for a practical
line to the Mojave desert.
About the time the Los Angeles ter
minal has branched out to its hearts
content in this southern country the
main line will be well under way, or at
least it looks as though that will result.
The line from Los Angeles to Pasa-
dona is now owned and operated by this
company it has a line nearly completed
to Long Beach, and from there it is
reaching up and down the coast with its
business tentacles. That it is intending
to come in this direction seems proba-
BILE. Concerning this matter the follow
| ing paragraph in the Westminster Trib-
une will afford some light.
/ "The committeeman who went to Los
Angeles at the invitation of Mr.. Burnett,
manager OF the Terminal railway COM
pany, last Saturday, were informed by
| that gentleman that the Terminal COM
pany would build through Westminster
and Garden Grove in the near future,
and all they would ask would be the
right-of-way and depot grounds. Mr..
Burnett and the chief engineer of the
company will visit Anaheim, Garden
Grove and Westminster inside OF thirty
days."
1t will be remembered that this is the
outcome of the railroad meeting that was
held at Westminster few weeks ago. Ii
this is indeed the Union Pacific that is
securing business foothold in and about
the metropolis of Southern California,
the work is being quite effectually done
NOTES.
The circus will arrive this morning. 1t
occupies thirty-three cars.
Captain Cross, it is stated, will COM
mence work on his new line to Pasadena
very soon.
Mr.. Richard Kerens and some of the
other Terminal road nabobs will be here
in December.
The belt on the big wheel in the Elec-
trio power house broke twice yesterday,
and the Pico-street power house had to
be brought into use. This company will
| in couple of weeks probably commence
| work on it's Boyle Heights line.
Hon. I. f. Gibbon, attorney of the
Terminal railroad company, will go east
in November to confer with the st. Louis
officers of the road, and for the purpose
OF attending to some interesting personal
business.
Mr.. Fred T. Perris, of San Bernardino,
was in the city Yesterday. Mr.. Perris is
chief engineer Of the Southern California
railroad company, and is one of the
ablest, longest-headed railroad men in
the state. He has accompanied Presi-
dent Marvel during the greater part OF
his tour of inspection.
The Redondo railway will have new
time card out on Monday, October 9th.
| The Southern Pacific engineers,
Messrs. Geo. A. Stone. ]. R. Whitney,
Hugh Donegan and F. W. Strichield,

ing, and are at work setting the grade
stakes preparatory to commencing the

they will remain for several weeks,
probably months.
