RAILWAY CONSTRUCTION.

The outlook for large railway con-
struction in New Mexico is just about as
roseate as it we'll could be and not actual
ly be under way. The latest advices from
the east indicate that Wall street sees
what is coming and is beginning to talk
about it. Wall street opinion is that c..
P. Huntington would scarcely care to
undertake at present the building of the
middle division of the Atlantic g. Pacific
system between Albuquerque and Sepul-
pa; but the chances are that the west
knows little more about this than Wall
street. 1t knows that the great south
western arms of the Rock Island, the
Missouri Pacific, the Frisco and the M.
7. q X. companies are bound eventually
to reach out for the Mexican border and
the Pacific, and it sees now how by an
alliance with Huntington this can be ac-
com plished at minimum expense. No.
body will accuse Huntington of being
slow to take advantage of such oppor-
tunities AZ thu southwestern railroad
situation now offers. New Mexico will be
large beneficiary in the new DEAL
