NEW RAILROAD SURVEY.
Mystery Connected with Projected
Line Over. sanare de crlsto
Rance,

Denver, Sept. 17.-San Luis valley
people, says the Republican, are much
interested in some mysterious survey
ins which is being carried on in their
country, with the evident purpose in
view of building a railroad which will
cross the continental divide in new
place.
The surveyors, who refuse to state
their connection with any railroad,
started some time ago from Durango
and have worked up the San Juan river
to the neighborhood of Platoro, cross
ing near the head of the Conejos river
and some twenty miles north OF Ala
mosa. A one and one-half per cent.
grade was located up Mosca pass, but
that was made up largely of bridges
and tunnels and was afterwards aban.
doned. Then another grade was made
up Medano pass in the Sangre de Girls
to mountains. The survey then ex-
tends down through the Wet Mountain
valley to the st. Charles river and
over toward Beulah.
Several theories have been advanced
as to the nature of the work and who
is behind it. 1t has been charged to
the Rock Island and the Denver & Rio
Grande roads, neither of which will ad-
init their connection with it. That the
work is to be made permanent, how.
ever, seems certain. The surveyors
are buying more horses and outfits all
the time and evidently have no inten.
tion of ceasing work.
The San Luis valley people generally
think the survey is being conducted by
the Rock Island railroad, and that the
present work is to establish a new
crossing of the great divide. Later, 1t
is claimed, the Rock Island will build
from the st. Charles river to Pueblo
and at the Durango terminal will be-
gin the long task Of building on west
ward to Los Angeles. 1t is contended
that some one has finally figured out
way Of getting through the
grand canon of the Colorado to the
west, feat which has puzzled railway
engineers for many years.
In favor of the Rock Island theory 1t
is said that the coal regions OF Dur
ango have long needed an outlet to
the coast and that this system has
been desirous Of furnishing it. Theor-
etical railroad building has long been
charged up to the Rock Island route.
Another theory is that the surveying
being done has particular reference to
the Wet Mountain district and its prod
ucts. Denver railroad men generally
say they know nothing Of the work be-
ing done and scout at all theories pre-.
sented.

SUGAR FACTORY FoR BRUSH.
citizen. Celebrate the Success Of the
Project.

Denver, Sept. IA News special
from Brush last night says: To-day
has been the gala day In Brush. One
year ago the Chamber Of Commerce
entered into contract with the West
ern Sugar Company to grow 1900 acres
of sugar beets In 1905 and $500 in the
years Of 1906 and 1907.
The sugar company guaranteed the
erection of sugar factory to be COM
pleted in time to handle the crops of
1906. The soliciting committee of the
Chamber of Commerce during the last
week. secured the necessary acreage
with an additional plot of $40 acres
In addition to the above acreage they
have 1000 acres subscribed by set
tlement of German farmers in the east
ern portion Of the county, provided
that a switch or stub railroad is
built into their settlement, which is
located about seven miles northeast of
here. The matter has been taken up
with the Burlington railway and the
sugar beet company, and Indicate
are favorable for the building of the
branch.
The Chamber of Commerce gave a
free barbecue to-day to the 200 farm.
ers who have subscribed the acreage.
The dinner was served In Knearl's
opera house and the entire citizenship
tributary to Brush were present The
general field superintendent for tho
sugar company, Frank Secor. is here
and has personally examined every
acre Of beets grown this year and un-
hesitatingly pronounces the sugar
beets grown in this section the best
IN the state.

PACKING HOUSE SALE
TRUST TO BUY DENVER PLANTS
Reported Negotiations for Purchase Of
Denver Stoekyards and Packing
House Plants.

HePofteo Ne2oIi1tlonB Tor VOTCn0oS ou
Denver Stoekyards and Packing
House Plants.
Denver. Sept. 1S.-Denver Is to be
the great packing and distributing
point for the entire Western country,
IL a persistent report Is confirmed.
This report connects the names of the
big combination known as the packing
trust with the purchase OF the two
Denver packing plants and the Denver
stock yards. Stockholders Of the
Denver plants deny that they have
been sold. but that is not final, because
1t is customary for business men while
conducting negotiations of the magni-
tude Of this one, to keep their own
council. The deal il concluded In
wolves more than a million dollars and
will make Denver the big stock center
OF the West.
The Combination known as the pack
ing trust is composed of the Nelson
Morris Company. the Armour Com
pany, Swift & Company, and Swartz-
child & Sulzberger. They have es-
tablished large plants at Chicago.
Omaha, Kansas City and st. Joseph.
1t is known that for good many years
they have been considering the advisa-
bility of getting foothold in Denver.
because of the advantage offered as
a shipping point. At present the COM
panies ship stock the 500 miles be-
tween here and Missouri river points,
slaughter 1t and then ship the meat
back They are thus compelled to
maintain double cold storage plants
as well as meeting the freight each
way.
Denver has two large packing es-
tablisments. The Oldest is the Colo
RADIO Packing Company, established
some fifteen years ago, which has
gradually been growing until 1t has a
plant of considerable capacity. The
size of plant is estimated by its stor-
age capacity. This plant has ca
pacity of 300 cattle and 1900 hogs and
perhaps half as many sheep per day.
A conservative estimate puts the value
of the plant. with buildings and stock
on hand at $750,000. The large stock
holders are Henry Gebhard, Dennis
Sullivan, Alfred Buffers, ]. A. Thatcher
and other local capitalists.
Several years ago the Western Pack
ing Company came into the field, Or
ganized and built new from the ground
up. 1t was created by Colorado men
who thought they saw field for an in
dependent company at this point.
They built modern plant at cost of
$750,000 which has since increased.
Among those who put in their money
were Charles Boettcher, Col. D. C..
Dodge, Charles ]. Hughes. Jr., and
others. That their judgment was cor
rect is proved by the fact that the
plant has made money.
The Western Packing Company has
capacity of 1000 hogs, 5000 cattle
and 1000 sheep, slaughtered and
stored per day. The plant consists
of two large buildings for slaughter
ing, cold storage plant five stories
in height, an expensive ice plant, fer
tilizing house, etc.

HOT SULPHUR SPRINGS
WELCOMES DENVER EXCURSION.
Opening Of Moffat Road Celebrates by
Advent Of Hundreds n De-
lighted Visitors.

Denver, Sept. 16.-It required two
long trains.' heavily laden. to transport
the large crowd of excursionists over
the Moffat road to Hot Sulphur
Springs yesterday to be present at the
exercises in honor of the advent Of
the Moffat road into the Springs. 1t
was a most representative crowd and
each and ever. of them were il
the best OF spirits.
The Second Regiment Band accom-
panied the excursion and during the
wait for the train it played number
Of popular airs much to the delight OF
the crowd. There were large num-
ber of the fair sex in the crowd and all
were animated in the expectation of en-
gaging in a SNOWFALL fight in midsunl-
mer at the summit of the continental
divide where the trains stopped for a
short interval to allow the passengers
to indulge themselves.
On the first train there was one car
that did not carry passenger, but
nevertheless it was well loaded, 1t
carried the provisions to augment the
barbecue that awaited the excursion
lists on their arrival at Hot Springs.
The provisions were supplied by the
Chamber of Commerce, under whose
auspices the days functions were held.
1t was estimated that fully 1000 per-
sons sat down to the barbecue
The energetic citizens of the honored
city were full of enthusiasm 1t could
not be expressed In an ordinary way,
but had to be brought out quick and
strong. Dynamite was the only re-
source in this emergency. So when
the smiling visitors came gliding over
the bright, new rails into the place
they were greeted with the resounding
roar of high explosives. Some of them
were badly frightened, not being ac-
customed to the unrestrained fervor OF
new city. A window glass in the
excursion train crashed to pieces, but
this was the only serious outcome OF
the joyous welcome.
The visitors were escorted imme.
diately to the barbecue, where they
were feasted upon roast oxen and
other substantial edibles.
The day was not only memorable
one for the people of Grand county, but
also for the officials of the Moffat road,
for 1t marked another milestone in
the history of the road. 1t was their
entrance into Hot Sulphur Springs on
their way to Salt Lake. Construction
gangs have been working on the road
bed all summer and they worked
through country that heard the toot
of the locomotive for almost the first
time yesterday.
Hot Sulphur Springs is twenty-four
miles beyond Arrowhead, the former
terminus of the road, and ITO miles
from Denver by rail. The springs
there have wonderful medicinal quail
ties and it is expected that 1t will be-
come great resort. 1t will also be
great railroad town as It will be the
end of the first division on the Moffat
road. No wonder then the people of
that place went wild with Joy over the
advent of the first train.

Around occasional crescent-shaped
bays curve the island cities, pictur-

The restless. hungry-hearted pio-
neers and sons of pioneers cannot
bear the restraint of settlement. Be
ginning a century ago, the first great
westward trek in the United States
was made from the settled portions
of Virginia and West Virginia into the
wilderness of Kentucky and Tennes-
see. After that frontier became
tame and civilized country the old
pioneers took up their westward way
once more and treked to Missouri,
Iowa and Nebraska, and then when
civilized customs stifled and suffocat-
ed the old lovers Of freedom there,
they struck across the plains to the
Pacific ocean and founded Oregon,
California and their daughter states
and territories. Now Oregon is a civ
ilized and thickly settled state and
these pioneers and their sons are
trekking once more, to Alaska, Can
ada. the Orient, Mexico, South Africa
and Australia, anywhere to find
| frontier.
