THE ROAD IS SURELY
COMING HERE
Accepted Surveys of Western
Pacific Place WinnemuCCd
On the Line

The surveys for the Western Pacific
have been completed across Nevada to
meet those already made in Beekwith
Pass. They have been inspected by the
chief engineer of this city and a por-
ton of them have been accepted,
says the San Francisco Bulletin, which
continues:
1t is almost an assured fact thai
the new transcontinental line will
cross the southern arm of Great Salt
Lake in the same manner that the
Southern Pacific has bridged the nor
thern arm between ogden and Lucin
Satisfactory surveys for such tres
tie have been made and it is stated
that the problem of crossing the in
land sea on the south will be far less
neers found almost too much for them.
The water does not reach so great n
depth and there are no false bottoms
to contend with such as the crusts of
salt deposit caused on the north by
rivers flowing into the lake.
A survey has been made around the
southern arm of the lake, but the one
across the water has been so salts
fe ctory that it will in all probability
b. accepted.
The Western Pacific surveyors ara
we'll pleased with the work they have
accomplished, and it is believed the
er tire route as laid out by them will
be accepted. The portion paralleling
the Central Pacific across Nevada has
already been approved.
The new line, whether it is backed
by Gould, Moffat or Rockefeller, q
matter still shrouded in mystery, will
cross the Great American desert in
Utah in almost a straight line to a
point called Silver Zone. Here the
mountains will necessitate building
four tunnels, the longest half mile
in length The road will then pass
through the Goshute Valley and cross
low divide at Flower Lake Pass
From there it proceeds by way of
Warm Springs on an easy grade to
Wells, in Nevada, which is the frs;
station on Harriman's line to be tres
passed upon. Wells will probably be
made a terminal and division point
From there the Western Pacific sur
veys parallel the Central Pacific, in
some places running as close as 200
feet from Harriman's line of the en-
tire distance through the Humboldt
Valley. passing Halleck, Osino and
running into Elko. At this point the
Western Pacific will enter one end of
the town, the Chinese quarter, while
the Central Pacific passes through the
opposite end. The parallel line con-
tinues, diverging at or near Battle
Mountain, which point is not on the
Central Pacific. At Winnemucca, how
ever, the Western Pacific surveys re-
turn and boldly cross Harriman's
road. From there the new route keeps
to the north of the Central Pacific un-
til Beckwith Pass in the Sierras is
reached.
Construction has been begun in Cali
fornia and large force of men will
be placed in Nevada as soon as the
company surveys are finally accepted

was frequently illustrated. He traced the
matter of psychic subjects from the ma

clared that investigation had reached a
point where the scientist must admit he Is
baffled or accept the hypothesis of the
spiritualist and the positiveness of invisi-

by exhibitions of thought transference
and demonstrations of clairvoyance.
