RAILROAD NEWS.
Rock Island VIII Now Build Into
Denver.
Purchase of Colorado Eastern
Property Significant.
"CHICAGO-OGDEN I n
Will Combine With ID. & r. g.
in Building Into Utah.
CH%ICAGO-OGDEN LINE.
Rock Island Has Had No Denver
Terminal Up to This Time.

Denver, May 25.-The announcement
that the Rock Island has purchased the
Colorado Eastern property in Denver
marks the most important railroad deal
that has occurred since the purchase of
the Colorado Midland by the Colorado &
Southern and the Rio Grande Western.
The transaction has just been closed,
but the scheme that will result has been
Matching for months The visit of Pres
ident Purdy of the Rock Island some
weeks ago to Denver with other officials
was on this mission.
The sale of the property means the
entrance of the Rock Island into n
within a year if. present plans do not
miscarry. It means the building Of 70
mileS-or in reality 100 mileS-of new
railroad in the state. Further, it is the
first link of q ChicagO-Ogden line, en-
bracing the Rock Island and Denver &
Rio Grande roads
At present, and ever since it has been
running into Denver, the Rock Island
has a an arrangement with both the
Denver & Rio Grande and the Union
Pacific. The Union Pacific brings into
Denver its through trains, while the Rio
Grande looks out after its Colorado
Springs-Denver business and dOes all Of
the Rock Island repairing work at the
shops at Durham, h Rock Island
goes into Colorado Springs over it's own
track. and that is its Colorado, and con
sequently western terminus.
A construction company will be OIL
ganized to build the 10 miles of track
between Scranton inc Limon, a stretch
which will connect the Rock Island and
Colorado Eastern tracks. The local
company viii issue bonds to pay for the
construction, and the arrangement is
that these bonds shall be guaranteed by
the Chicago. Rock Island & Pacific.
The persistent rumor of an alliance
of the Rio Grande with the Rock Island
prognosticate the succeeding acts Of a
western railway drama thai will change
not only the maps but the history Of
the west. It is the belief the Rio Grande
and the Rock Island will Jointly build
to Ogden from Grand Junction, thereby
securing one line direct from Chicago.
