The Burlington in Montana.

lnasmuch as n party of Burlington a. Mis-
souri, railroad surveyors have been working
in this vicinity since last fall, it ma be of
interest to know just how that road is pro-
crossing. The track is now laid to a place
called Merino, in Wyoming, better known
as the l01 ranch, and the grade ia complet-
ed about fifty miles north of that point,
and construction work has been opened up
to Powder river, one hundred miles from
the end OF the track. The route leaves
Buffalo to the left and passes Sheridan. For
some reason construction work ceased Jan,
u. Up to that time, however, there were
1,5O0 men and 100 t ANS employed. No
reason is given for the suspension
OF work, and it is presumed opera
lions will be commenced again in
the early spring, yet this Is, OF course,
conjecture. The surveyors in this county
have located q line from Martinsdale to
Toston via the south branch of tne Mussel-
shell and ~Sixteen-mile Geek. The grade
encountered was about thirty-four inches
to the 100 feet, butit is yet possible that the
North Fork route via White Sulphur Springs
may be chosen. The surveyors are still at
work going east from Martlnsdale and will
follow down tho Musselshell as far az Javi-
ma and cross over to the Yellowstone in the
vicinity Of Billings. This leads US to believe
that the suspension of work a week since is
only temporary and will be resumed when
spring opens.-Husbardman.
