ests. One OF the reasons which led
Hartman and his allies to wage the
bitter warfare for control of the North
eTn Pacific, and hence possibly of the
burlington, was the desire to keen the
Burlington from building into SaIr
Lake to connect with the San Pedro.
This battle between the great financial
powers of Wall street resulted in q
compromise and the formation OF the
Northern Securities company. Before
this company was formed it was semi
officially announced that the Burlington
would carry out the former plan of
building into Salt Lake. Although this
announcement has been lost trace Of
in the many developments that fol-
lowed. no formal denial has come. II
is stated by those in a position to
know that J. J. Hill, J. PierpOnt Nor
gan and their allies have succeeded in
getting complete control Of the north
western railroad situation. and that
as soon as the status Of the Northern
Securities company is finally settled
they viii build the Burlington into Salt
Lake. Whether they build or not. there
is no doubt that the san Pedro viii
be provided with an eastern cOnnec-
ton if it has TO build one Of its own.
One OF the possibilities which is almost
prOba bility is a new railroad con-
Meeting Salt Lake and Denver. and
opening up the rich reservation country
in Utah and the country in northern
Colorado which is without rail c0nnec-
tions.
During the recent season the Salt
Lake q Los Angeles road, running to
Saltair beach, carried 1896 passen-
gers, as compared with 154 0S2 for the
previous season. 1t handled q, S84 tons

the previous year.
The Salt Lake & ogden road added
nearly Is per cent to its freight BUSH
ness and % per cent to its freight traf-
fic. A new locomotive has been added

Burlington Extension.
One great railroad system which has
had its eyes on Salt Lake for some
time has been the Burlington. Years
ago survey was made into Salt Lake.
and the financial stringency put a
temporary quietus on the project. Dur
ing the year just past another survey
was made from Guernsey, Wyo., pres
ent terminus of the Burlington. into
Salt Lake City, and the officials of the
Burlington began quietly to add to their
holdings of real estate in the city.
Then followed the big deal by which
the Burlington was sold to the North
ern Pacific and Great Northern inter
