U. P. CUTOFF.
Short Route In Wyoming to Receive
Attention.
Especial Correspondence

tSpSCldl
Cheyenne, Wyo., May 17.-General
Manager Dickinson, Chief Engineer
Berry, Superintendent Harris of the
Union Pacific and Hon. Otto Gramm
of Laramie, arrived in the city last
night, having driven over the Sherman
mountains from Laramie in a wagon.
The private cars of the officials were
sent here in a freight train and at 2
o'clock this morning the party left for
Omaha. From a member of the party
it was learned that the officials made
the wagon trip for the purpose of in
specting a route which was surveyed
last winter, and one which wiz avoid
the steep grades of Sherman hill. Dur
ing the past twelve years the Union
Pacific has been trying to discover a
feasible route between this city and
Laramie, which would do away with
the expensive track over the r-ntain.
Many surveys have been maue but
each time the route and the estimate
of the cost of building the cutoff did
not meet with the approval of the di-
rectors of the road and the project was
from time TO time abandoned.
1t is said, however, that the route in
spected by the officials yesterday is
the most feasible of any yet surveyed,
and when the cutoffs west of Laramie
have been completed this cutoff around
Sherman hill will receive official atten-
ton.
The route of the proposed cutoff
starts from Laramie in a northeasterly
direction and passes through Telephone
canyon. some twenty-five miles north
of Sherman station on top of the hill,
and enters Cheyenne through Chey-
enne pass, nine miles west of the city.
