The switz rland Trail to Ward Surpassed
ali Other Colorado Trips.
The following clipping ffom the An
COLA Qno.) Magnet Is one of the impress
sions of the editors that visited Boulder
last monlh:
"Monday morning our Pullman train
left Denver for Boulder, 2S miles north,
where we transferred to two special
trains on the Colorado & Northwestern
marrow guage), which runs to Ward, a
bustling mining city 26 miles distant.
Like the Loop route, the road follows a
crooked gorge and winds around the
sides OF mountains, much of the way with
high wall of rock on one side and a
chasm on the other, the latter IN some
places beng from COO to 1900 feet deep.
At almost all points high mountain
peaks tower skyward thousands and
thousands of feet, and the views afforded
tourists are sublime beyond the power of
words to describe. The Loop trip Is
tame when compared with trip over
the Colorado & Northwestern. The
road was completed last June, only nine
months after it was begun, and its con
struction is a marvel in engineering skill.
1t cost $4,000 mile; but it taps one of
tn. richest mining regions in the Rockies,
and no doubt its builders will find their
investment profitable.
ARRIVING at Ward about o'clock, our
entire party of over 400 people was treat
ed to an elegant complimentary lunch,
served in large hall by laoies of the
village. The people of Ward are hust-
lers, and their hospitality was not sur
passed by those of any other town we
visited.
"On our return the train stopped an
hour at Frances, two miles from Ward,
and all who cared to do so visited one of
the largest and richest mines in all that
region, the manager, Mr.. VIM. P Dan
iels, extending every facility which court
esy could suggest. On the trip down the
mountain, the writer and wife were court
eously given permission, by Mr.. I
Blair, general manager of the road, to
ride in the locomotive cab. This afford
ed us view of the landscape and OF the
frghtful chasms below far superior to
that to be had from coach window and
enabled US to realize the magnitude ct
the task involved in the construction Of a
railroad up a mountain side. The COL
orado & Northwestern people style this
road The Switzerland Trail OF America,
and all who have been over it will con
cede that the title is appropriate and de.
served"

next seasons crop. Liverpool showed 5s1
advance, which was hardly UP to expectations
and early Argentine news quite bearish
regards the shipping surplus of that coul-
try, Rosario cable estimating 1t at 46 Co.,
600 blu. The net result of the information
was somewhat bearish feeling at the open
ing OF business. May wheat started at from
915sc to 9114c, against 91Nc at the close yes
terday, and in about half hour it had got
down to 91B@91Ac. The Duluth market
came again to the support of the bulls, by
advancing cash wheat there from SIC to 921sc,
in a few minutes. 1t thought here that
the advance could have been, and probably
was manipulated from Chicago. 1t had
bullish effect Notwithstanding. Paris and
Antwerp each quoted moderate advance for
the day, and that was additional bulHsh
factor that helped the market to recover from
911s@91Ac to 915s@91%c. The receipts at

large quantity of wheat sold for export after

latter information, together with the higher
quotations from the continent and heavy At
lantic exports, caused further brief rally
to 917sc, but it quickly sold off again to 91Ac,

Some OF the anthracite group also continued
under depression in the day. Notwithstand
ing this reactiorary tendency, the general
tone of the speculation continued strong and
confident. Business was on a large scale
and embraced a large number of issues,
some of the usually inactive stocks being
brought into prominence by sharp advances.
The pressure OF large sums of newly dis
bursed money seeking investment
fected in the demand for high grade invest
ment stocks, the Vanderbits advancing on
an average a point or more. Lake Shore

these two Englishmen fellow passen-
gers, and, thanks to the captain, who
observed that we could find mutual
interests to amuse US, we were all
three soon together in the smoking
room, improving our acquaintance over
brandy and soda. Hurd and Brent
represented very different classes. Hurd
talked about Oxford, the army, big
game in India, and good deal about
horses and Kaffir stocks, which were
then attracting more than their usual
share of attention. He took care not
to place himself, however, and l re-
ceived a very definite impression that
he was a young man Of fortune who
was travelling for pleasure, and be-
cause he was an Englishman. Brent,

himself as civil engineer, and he said
he was bound to Cuba in behalf of an
English company to make prelimi-

and Santiago. The talk drifted around
from one subject to another as we sat
in the deck smoking room, with both
doors open for the breeze, until at last
