NEW RAILROAD P
President FELTON, Wants the Hisey &
Lee Livery Stable Property.

President FELTON, told T. 5. Wilson,
Of Mexico, in Chicago Thursday that
be would ike to have the new depot
located where the HIssy S Lee livery
stable is. He objects to the site Just
east OF the jefferson street crossing
because he did not like to build a
handsome depot next to a livery
stable.
We understand the livery stable
property belo3gs to the Hisey estate,
and Is not fos sale. The three sites
available are the Old Lacrosse Lum,
Der Company yards, the site just wesl
Of Clark avenue bridge, and the one
just east OF jefferson street crossing.
President FELTON, wants a nice loca-
ton and plenty OF room, as he expects
to erect a handsome depot to be used
By both the Alton and Burlington
roads. This viii, Of course, be the
end OF the division for the Burlington
people, and the Alton folks will alsC
have to have a division here. The
prospects seem to be good for Mexico
to become a big railroad town.
If President FELTON, viii select the
site-and it can be gotten-the people
Of Mexico win do everything in theil
power TO assist him.
The Wabash people viii probably
also build a new station right across
the tracks from where the new Bur.
lington and Alton depot is located.
