Across Mexico by Rail.

The Jalisco Pacific Railway company
which was recently organized in Mexi-
co with capital of $40, 1876, 900 to build
the extension of the Manzanillo and
Colima railway from the latter point to
Guadalajara, will continue the line to
two points on the Mexican National
railway. The portion of the line now
in operation, which is owned by the
Mexican National Construction COM
pany, has proved eminently successful.
The distance from Manzanillo to Guada-
laiara is 225 miles, and there are already
50 miles Of railroad in operation, leav-
ing 1865 miles to be built. Guadalajara,
with population Of about 10000, was
formerly one of the most prosperous
trade centers of the republic, and the
best informed business men Of the city
believe that the completion of the rail
way to the Pacific ocean will restore its
old time commercial Importance. With
the completion Of the Jalisco-Pacific to
Guadalajara, it will be possible to cross
Mexico by rail from ocean to ocean,
starting either from Tampico OF Vera
Cruz.
