expense of handling by other roads.
This is a complete change in the oris
inRl plans OF the company. and was
due to the fact sIat they could not
make satisfactory terms with other
roads.
Under the present plans 1t is not
likely that the road will attempt to
carry its own tracks-Into Denver for
long time, Il at all. They have now
the choice of two routes into the city
from the station at Utah Junction. on
roads already built and operating. and
without any charge for terminal facili-
ties II also opens the way for the
handling OF the coal product from the
Leyden mine and the other mines of
the company by way OF the Burlington
east and all through the northern part
OF the state.
our intention is now" said Mr.. Mof-
fat yesterday. TO depend upon our own
lire all that we can in the building OF
the road. Under the plan adopted we
can secure all the terms that we desire
from the roads for the bringing in of
the construction materials from the
East and distribute 1t ahead of us as
we build. Traeklaying will soon begin
in earnest from the Denver end. and

make 1t possible. That brings the
road within two miles and half OF
the city. and as soon as II gets far
enough out TO make 1t an object the
service of the road will be commenced.
and it is not too sanguine guess 70
say that IL will be soner than has been
generally expected. We hope to carry
ali of our tunnel machinery to the site
of the work ourselves. Every effort Is
now being made to push things as fast
as they can be pushed by men,"

would take the verbal agreement OF the
other made In the presence OF the
board. written agreement has not
been contemplated. for this and other
reasons.
We believe that an amicable ar
rangement may bc made with the par
ties within the next forty-eight hours
We base this belief. primarily, upon the
fact that the difference seems one OF
form as to the agreement rather than
upon the result which we think win be
certain TO follow if either OF the prop
ositions given talow shall be adopted.
The principal contention at this time is
as to limit OF time within which men
who have been discharged or are upon
a strike shall be taken back. IL ap-
pears to us that the difference Ia one OF
form merely, for the reason that we
think that az soon as the boycott IN
taken on the Increased shipment OF
ores to the Colorado City mills from
the cripple Creek district will necessi-
tate the employment of all the men
who have had experience In mill work.
'"The offer OF the business mems COM
mittee OF Victor TO give employment In
the Cripple Greek district to all form
er employees at the Standard mill who
are out OF work at n wage Of 50 per
day ought to simplify the matter Of
employment very much. Aside from
this. we are Informed that the TelIu-
ride mill at Colorado City Will start
up the first day Of April and furnish
employment to not less than fifty men.

the board Gnd the parties attending
