IBr TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNE

Montcair. y J.. Aug At developed to-day
that the railroad now being built between Nor
ristown and Caldwell is 10 be part Of a new
trunk line between New-York and Chicago"
This statement is made by the persons who are
building the road. and it is believed that the
Goulds are back of the projected line
The Wabash Railroad will be extended from
Baltimore 10 Reading Penn The new trunk line
could tap the valleys Of Eastern Pennsylvania
near Easton and cross Northern New-Jersey
making the new road between Morristown and
Caldwell a link OF the system. 1t is reported
that the Goulds are determined TO get TO New
York. and the route above indicated is rich in
possibilities. BY following the old LOOMS line,
on which much work done thirty years
ago the new road would be almost air line
to NewYOrk from Caldwell
Already the work of extending the road from
Essex Falls to Morristovn is we'll under way.
the contract for the rails having been given out.
The right of way. hundred feet in width.
sufficient for a four track roadbed, has been Sc
cured for the entire distance. and half of the
grading has been completed.
The principal owners of the new railroad and
its builders are Richard b and Robert B. Nc
Evan, the we'll known paper manufacturers of
Whppany. who control several valuable patents
connected with the manufacture of paper. The
name of the road at present is the Whippauy
River Railroad.
Morristown will soon be connected with the
metropolis by another railroad line than the
LackaWanna.
The idea has been that the Erie was back OF
the new road. but the present builders insist
emphatCaIly that 1t is to he part OF new trunk
line. Henry Wood. Of Philadelphia, has bought
hundreds of acres along the line of the road, and
expects to make another Tuxedo near Essex

will be included in the new route. The tunnel

MontClair side of the mountain. and about four
hundred feet on the Verona end. About two
