BURLINGTON EXTENSION.
One Thousand Teams and 1000 Men
Working on FraDnic Line.
Especial TO the News, y


Sheridan, Wyo., Dec. 25.--one thou
sand teams and over 1000 men are now
at work on the Frannie extension of the
Burlington railroad toward the Sho-
shone reservation, and work on same Is
being pushed with the greatest possible
speed. The men are now working on
the bridges, culverts, cuts, fills, etc,
and ttagklaying will begin about the
18th Of January. The town Of Worland
at the southern end Of the extension
Is becoming rapidly city of tents
and many wagons are leaving Fran
nile each day, filled with emigrants
bound for that point. The town has
been laid out, depot grounds selected
and the sale of town lots will begin
soon.
The road will pass almost directly
through the large tract which is to be
reclaimed by the Hanover canal. and
the land Of the Hanover Land & Irriga-
ton company viii also lie adjacent
thereto. These two tracts comprise over
10000 acres OF the most valuable land
In Wyoming, and water has already
been turned ON several OF the farms,
IL is estimated c0nservatively that
100000 people will register at the open
ing Of the Shoshone reservation, and of
these the Burlington proposes to handle
at least one-half. The best possible
passenger equipment will be put in use
and at the above figures the first year,
passenger business Will nearly pay for
the extension OF the line.

CALIFORNIA; STAKE.
Why San Francisco Shippers do Not
Want Rate LEGISLATION.

In the year 1904 there were shipped
out of California, by rail, 72,2S0 car
loads Of fruit. OF these 7051 were green
deciduous fruits, 1854 citrus fruit,
t4.546 dried fruit, 1894 raisins, 966 nuts,
5s07 canned fruits. In the same year
the shipments OF fruit by sea, from
San Francisco. amounted In total to but
4S11 carloads, this embracing all kinds.
These figures show the Importance Of
the railroads In the transportation of
the fruits of California to the markets.
The fruits carried by rail exceeded
those moved by sea by more than Co.
coo carloads.
The shipments of vegetables by rail
from California in 1904 made up the
respectable total OF 2,3S1 carloads OF
10 tons each. The fruit and vegetables,
grown for expectation In California,
have steadily increased their export
volume. With the maintenance Of IA
vorable conditions their expectation Is
certain to grow, with corresponding
augmentation of the wealth and pros
perty OF this state. BY rail fruits and
vegetables from California are moved
