Railway Notes.

Both the Rio Grande Western and
the Union Pacific are doing heavy
passenger business just now.
Commencing next Sunday the Union
Pacific wall again put on the fast
train between Denver and Kansas City,
which was taken off last August.
w. H. Reno has been awarded the
post of detective for the Gulf lines,
and will be allowed a staff of men I'M
der him for argus-eyed supervision of
all demanding their services.
The Evansville & Richmond railway
has gone into the hands of a receiver.
This road is 102 miles in length, run
ming from Gilmore to Westport, and
was at one time part of the ''Mackay''
system.
The Santa Fe now proposes to erect
a s242.O00 depot building for the termi-
nus of the Circle railroad, at Thir-
tenth and Larimer street, Denver, pro-
viding the property owners will allow
them to standard gauge it.
Switchman w. w Adams, of the
Gulf road, got his foot caught in a frog
night before last at Argo smelter, and
amputation may save his life. When
will be switchmen be paid in proportion
to their hazardous calling?
C. ]. Jones company have been award
ed the contract of grading 200 miles of
road from Port Bolivar. on Galveston
bay, running northeasterly. The first
hundred miles of steel rails is now be-
ing contracted for in the east.
When roads doing business in GER
tain territory agree to grant half rates
under certain conditions, is a fine thing
To live up to it is another fine thing.
There is food for reflection within a
thousand miles of here-we mention it
by the card.
It is rumored in authentic circles that
the b. & M. R. R. is about to let a.
contract for building over 300 miles of
line through the Yellowstone park
country. So far 81 augurs well for a
boom in railroad building, and Utah
will do some of it.
The Union Pacific local office yester-
day received some handsome views of
points OF interest along the line, in
Guiding Provo Falls, Lake Lucil, and
White Pine Ford in Logan canyon; also
some of the relief maps and a reissue
OF the popular pamphlet on Utah.
The Gulf people would be astonished
were they to know the full extent of
work that was done in the Denver shops
for divisions foreign to that property,
and then charged up 10 them. Practi-
cal railway men can conceive what a
showing" can be achieved by such
manipulation But thing like that
should not be dug up now-it would
only tend to pile up complications more
and more.
The Herald stated that Receiver
Irumbull and Ex-Governor Evans were
down at Galveston and New Orleans
Tor something-so they were They
made a traffic alliance with the r e.

Two Fires,

Two fires in one day are enough, sure
ly, but this was Slowhegan's experience,
Friday. The first alarm was ruug in at
l.30. Friday morning. This fire was at
the residence of Nelson Weston, on
West Front ST., south side. The stable
was sheet of flames when first diseov-
cred and was past saving when the first
water was turned on ami the ell and
main house was burning rapidly. al
though the department responded with
its accustomed promptness and got wa
ter on in very few minutes after the
alarm WAS given.
The contents of the stable two sleighs,
two carriages, harnesses, etc. were a
total loss, but portion of the furniture
of the house was saved.
The loss to stable and house and con-
tents is yaIiously estimated at 81 900 to
Sl.3o0; with insurance on buildings aud
contents amounting TO sl.300 in Grllin's
agency.
The residence of John Hutchinson was
damaged slightly by seorching on the
outside and burned through the roof in
one place.
The second alarm was sounded AT lo3s
O'Clock a. NJ, Just a the morning train
from Portland arrived and there was II
lively stampede down Water street
toward Leland X COS tanncrV which
WAS reported to be on fire. The hose
carts, steamer and hook and ladder
trucks We're making big time toward
the scene of action in space of time
measured by IA very few minutes after
the alarm sounded.
The cause of the fire WAS the burning
out of the stack to the boiler furnace
from which the roof of the boiler house
aud the end of the main building took
fire in several places. Fortunately the
hose belonging to the taDnery was at
tached to the hydrant and a prompt use
of this extiuguished the fire before the
fire conn anies arrived II was also
fortunate that there was no wind, other
wise the fire might have got start that
would have caused much damage before
it was gotten under control. The loss
was very light.
