of Its Land Hold
inEs.

The South st. Paul Belt Line company
has completed the surveys of a new line
to connect the southeasterly corner of the
Union station yards and the Union stock
yards. The line will take a westerly
direction through West st. Paul to a
point near the intersection of Minerva
street nd the South ST. Paul road, turn
ing then In a northwesterly direction to
the river and cutting across the Missis-
sippi at a point approximately three
quarters of the distance from the Bur-
hngton station at the Willowbrook fish
hatchery and the lower Union station
yards. The line will then take another
westerly turn, entering the yards very
near the point where the Burlington
tracks leave it.
The bridge to be constructed, it is
stated on excellent authority, will be
draw instead Of a high bridge The
necessary steps towards securing legisla-
ton permitting the erection of the
bridge are being taken and a bill was IA
vorably reported to the senate in Wash
ingtOn Tuesday, with the recommends
ton that permission to cross the river
at this point be granted.
The q b is informed that the new
line which will be part and parcel of
the Belt Line railroad, will be Az miles
in length and will cost exclusive of the
bridge about $4,000. According to the
surveys made, the new line when built
will parallel the present tracks of the
Great Western on the west side of the
river, from South st. Paul to the point
where the river is to be crossed
Steps were taken last fall towards Sc
curing better facilities for the handling
OF stock to and from the Union stock
yards at South st. Paul At the time
the Belt Line railway was reported con-
cerned In the project. Officials who are
close to the affairs of the company stat
cd yesterday that the new line will result
more directly from an effort made bv
Dnoge construction company towards
securing revenue from the Belt Line
road. The company which constructed
the present South st. Paul railroad
bridge, giving the belt line direct con-
hecuons with the Burlington and Mil

10 improve the belt line facilities to a
oegree where the loss on the old bridge
may De equahzed A definite proposition
to this effect has been made.
The construction of a new line tanning
the Union station yards direct will give
excellent connections with the Great
Northern and Northern Pacific railroads,
the stock yards two principal Northern
FEEDERS. 1t will also eliminate the time
consuming process of switching all cars
destined for the yards, through the
Union station yards and around to the
west side via the Robert street bridge
and then to South st. Paul over the
Great Western. The plan is to give
d connection which will enable the Stock
Yards company to expeditiousIv and
economically handle it immense traffic.
