completed to Arkansas City to this city,
the work on the line having been COM
pletetd this week Three gangs of men
are working on the line south from Ar
kansas City to Perry, Oklahoma An
other gang of men are working south
from Caldwell with the new metallic
circuits to Enid, o. r.
When the new lines are completed
with those to Arkansas City, the mer-
chants of Wichita will have splendid
connections with trade in Oklahoma and
southern Kansas. At no time in the his
tory Of the city has the service been as
satisfactory as at the present time.
Men are working on a new line be-
tween Wellington and Caldwell and this
work will be completed within few
weeks If the present weather continues.
The new line by the way of the Mis-
souri, Pacific to Hutchinson has been
completed and the cutting in of the
town. along the circuit. will be done this
week Wichita already has a line to
Hutchinson and the new line gives her
connection with the towns west, which
she has never been able to reach except
by telegraph.
A new line by the way of Medicine
Lodge, Attica and on to Perry is pro-
posed and this matter will be taken up
after the report Of Mr.. Duggan who re-
Gently returned from that country. The
line would give Wichita another connec-
ton which she needs at the present time.
The work on the new switch board is
being rapidly pushed and Manager Mere
dith Is in hopes that the service can be
used within the next few weeks.

With Cudahy Packing Co.
AT CHICAGO OFFICES

buildings and machinery to the company
is being attended to. AS soon as the COM
mittee returns to the city the work Of re-
arranging the interior will commence.
To estimate the value of the packing
house to Wichita would be difficult task.
Yet there is not a business man in the
city but what can give estimates as to
the worth to him Of the running of the
new plant here. He knows just what 1t
means to him and what it will mean to
others in bushes in the city.
The money pledged by the people Of the
city for the plant is evidence that the
people understand what they are doing.
that they fully realized the Importance OF
the project.
The people Of Sedgwick county will
anxiously await the announcement of the
date when the packing of hogs will com
mence in the old Whitaker plant.

Southwest.
AND THE CITYS FUTURE

wichita IS bound to become a great
city. Nothing can keep her down. She
will never have rival this side Of Kan
sas City, and she will reign as the met
ropolis OF the southwest"
These were the words Of Mr.. J. G.
Trimhle of Kentucky, spoken to a re-
porter for the Eagle while in the Fourth
National bank yesterday. Mr.. Trimble
has large property interests here and is
on a visit looking after his business af-
fairs. He was in conversation with Pres
ident Naftzger when the reporter called
and in conversation regarding Wichita he
said further: Eyes, this city is bound to
be a large one. With the natural re-
sources of a great state. and with her
natural location, she will become a met
ropo1is that you people have never
dreamed of. I have been away from
here long enough to see a great change,
and the change is for the better. Dur
ing the boom 1 acquired property here,
and for a. time 1 thought Of disposing of
st for what could get out of it Yet I
held on to it, and I am glad OF it. I
had offers on some Of my property year
ago. but refused 10 sell. Today I have
had more offers, and the increase in
price makes a large per cent.
II wshto say to you that If I were
a young man no other city that I know
Of would find me citizen, only Wichita
There are splendid opportunities here for
investment, especially in business prop
erty, and as the town continues to grow
the property becomes more valuable You
have splendid streets, magnificent build
tngs, and your people have the right
spirit, the spirit Of push and get there
They will get there, TOO, If they keep il
up with the present energy.
Il have been reading about this new
packing house, and it will be a great
thing for your city. The packing houses
made some of the eastern cities. The
new house will give employment TO
many men. and that will help Wichita
and her interests. It will help make a
livestock center, ana that is what you
want, is 1t not?
One Of the things which especially in
forests me is the new railroad. I he
heve that you call it the Orient. Well
whatever the name, it will be a great
thing for the city. Wichita will he

roads now, and there will be o,cers
There Will be one to-the coal fields and
then your town will grow This new
road Is a good idea and it will be bene-
fetal.

the prosperity Of your town I have q de-

\. Stefen Plans for Change in Brick
on Main street.
Architect Dumont IS now drawing the
plan for the entire change Of the interior
of the upper floors Of the Steffen build

them into suites of three OF four rooms

who may desire to furnish them for
light housekeeping or will be rented as
Office rooms to persons who may have a
demand for more than one or two rooms

Of the remodenng Will be considerable
and the work will be commenced as soon
as the plans are out.
