PLANS FOR CUTOFF APPROVED
Wisconsin Central viii Shorten Its Main
Line Forty Miles.

At the annual meeting of the Wisconsin
Central held in Milwaukee Tuesday, the
stockholders authorized the building of a
cutoff from Chippewa Falls to Marsh
field, which will shorten the line between
the Twin Cities and Chicago at least
forty miles.

large sum of money in the betterment
of the roadbed between Chippewa Falls
and st. Paul, and in other ways make
extensive improvements which will help
to shorten the running time of passenger
trains between Chicago and ST. Paul
The survey for the proposed cut off
has already been, made and some of the
work of grading on the new line will be
done this fall. Work will be resumed in
the spring. as it is the intention of the
lines officials to have the new route open
for traffic before the first of next Sep
TENDER.
The cutoff will run from Chippewa
Falls 10 Greenwood in Clark county,
where it will strike the Greenwood branch
line. which runs west from Marshfield
At MarShfield the main line will be reach
ed. The main line now runs north of
Marshfield to Abbotsford. but when the
cutoff is completed the line will run di
rectly west to Chippewa Falls.
