COMPETITIVE LINE ASSURED,
Road Connecting Canadian Pacific
Will Be Built.

Spokane. wash. March ts,--Spo-
kane can have new railroad, con-
Meeting the city with the Canadian
Pacific, within year II she win do
nate the right Of way into the city and
terminal grounds.
Such Is the statement of ID. c, Cor
bin. the well known capitalist, with
whom Hon, George Turner has been
working for more than year past on
the project to build road from Spo-
kane to some point In British Colum-
hia TO connect with the CanadianPa-
cific. Mr. Corhin has recently returned
from New York. and last evening gave
out the above statement. The road, II
built. viii give Spokane what she has
long needed, competitive line. and
Il is believed will ultimately result In
giving Spokane shippers what they
have been refused by the merger
roads. tariff rates that are in accord
with the business of the city.
Mr., Corbin says he cannot tell ex-
actly how long II will take to build
the road. but he believed II would be
completed within year. The length OF
the line will be l4O to ll5 miles, and II
viii cost about s4,Ooooo0. The pre-
liminary surveys have been completed,
but a number OF changes may be mede
before the final location is decided
upon.
The new road win run easterly from
Spokane to a point near Rathdrum.
Idaho II is likely to diverge there, but
the exact route IL not determined. II
will probably strike the Kootenai river
not far from Bonners ferry, The sur
Vey as now made Is along the Yahk
river. a stream flowing into the Koot-
enai above Bonner's ferry. 1t follows
the Yahk TO the international boun-
Diary and will connect with the Cam
adian Pacific at the boundary.
This is the road for which Judge
Turner drafted Incorporation papers
over year ago under the name Of
the Spokane & Kootenai Railroad
Company. 1t is probable, however.
that a new company will be formed
and a new name selected, as the old
name hardly indicates the scope Of
the enterprise. When the road is COM
pleted, through service win be given
from Spokane to st. Paul under
traffic arrangement with the Canadian
Pacific.
