Southern Pacific to Spend Money
From the Tucson Star.l


 Word comes to. the effect that the Southern Pacific within the next few years will spend between thirty and forty millions in betterments, in straightening the track, lessening grades, improving the roadbed, etc.
 Nothing is said of the proposed ex- penditure of large sums in new con- struction. It is known, however, that the policy of the new managers is to construct feeders,r and great activity may be looked for during the next few years in Arizona and Sonora, where the railroad interests of the great Southwest are unmistal1ably centering. It is said on good authority, though unoffciaily, that the Southern Pacific will construct short line through Sonora to the Pacific or Gulf coast, in order to compete with the Rock Island and Bisbee roads in the ocean traffic. It has even been suggested in some quarters that the new road from Naco to Cananea will be part of a Southern Pacific branch. parallelling the Naco- sari road, which is to reach the coast within five years.
