He Tells of the York Done on tho FGUey

The directors of the San Joaquin Valley
Railway met yesterday at 321 Market
street. Among the more important pro-
ceedings were report from Chief Engineer
Storey, on the progress of operations on
the new railroad and action upon con-
tracts for trestle bridge in Stockton, and
telegraph line down the valley.
The board purchased zoo tons of rails,
56-pound quality, from a local bank.
These rails were brought here from Eng
land for railroad enterprise some years
ago, bat that corporation fell by the way
side, leaving the rails with bank that
had advanced money on the project. They
will now be used for the side tracks on the
Valley road. The price at which they
were secured was much below the present
market rate.
A contract for a trestle over Mormon
Slough in Stockton was let to John
Worthington of this City. The trestle will
be built at once, some of the material for
it being already at Stockton. and it is to
serve as crossing for continuation of
Mormon Channel at point where the
waterway is not navigable.
The contract for erecting a telegraph
line along the railway was presented by
Attorney E. F. Preston and accepted by
the board on terms proposed by the Pacific
Postal Telegraph Company, as previously
announced in THE CALL.
In his verbal report the chief engineer
stated that the work at Stockton was pro-
crossing very favorably, and within two
weeks the road will be graded to the city
limits. Then contractors will be ready to
continue the grading through the open
country over the first division to the Stan
islaus River The two locomotives in
Stockton that arrived last week were care
fully inspected by Mr.. Storey, and he ex-
pressed himself as delighted with them.
Machinists are connecting the pipes and
other parts of the machinery, which work
will be finished this week, and then the
first two powerful engines OF the Valley
roads equipment will be tested. 1t won't
be long until they are putting and scream
ing through Stockton, for there is work
ahead for them in stringing out the
twenty miles of steel rails, redwood ties
and other material for track purposes, and
that will be started at the furthest within
two weeks from now.

vast amount of work performed by the
