Southern Pacific Making Arrange
ing for Extensions.
ARE PRINCIPALLY IN NEVADA
Curves TO Be Cut on All Lines and Dis
tanee Shortened Giving Quicker Time
to All Points on the Road and to
the Eastern Cities.

San Francisco, March 2Sa-The
Southern Pacific Company is engaged
on number OF important improve
ments Of its roadbej. the most exten-
sive of which is the revision Of the line
through the state Of Nevada. Between
the east and west boundaries of Ne
wade much Of the road is being re-
built. Excluding the Salt Lake cutoff
there will be 219 miles OF new road
constructed, saving more than seven
miles in distance and reducing the
maximum grade generally from one TO
0.4 percent. Between. Montavbo ana
Burbank, Cal, new line 554 miles
in length is being built, saving 697
miles in distance over the old line be-
tween the same points. On this new
line there are three tunnels located be-
tween Santa Susana and Chatsworth
Park. The length of tunnel No. is
1859, tunnel No. 2, 1905 feet and of
tunnel No. 3 1888 feet.
On the coast division between Soleda
and Santa Margarita, Cal, there will
be 2S567 miles of new road. Between
Elwood and Santa Barbara there will
be 1908 miles Of reconstruction, which
will reduce the length of the road O.S9
miles, the curvature by 141O degrees
and the grade rise by 13 feet vertical.
Between Santa Barbara and Ventura
construction has been recently COM
pleted which reduced the length of the
road O.42 miles, and reduced curvature
S7.6 degrees. The grade was reduced
32 feet vertical.
Another important stretch Of recon.
struction is found between Strausa and
Rogers, N. NJ. The saving in distance
Of the new line over the old one is
about half a mile. But the maximum |
grade has been reduced from 52.S to
31.6O feet per mile and the maximum
curvature from 10 to degrees.

Gates Thrown Open to Save the
Croton Dam.
DUE TO GREAT SNOW FALL
The Village Of croton, One Mile Below
the Dam, Is Threatened With De.
struetion Should the Dam Break or
the Reservoir Overflow.

New York. March aS.---No break has
yet occurred In the s5.000,0 900 dam
forming the New Croton reservoir.
which was menaced yesterday by a
food OF water from the great Croton
watershed, Workmen are reinforcing
the structure ut all points of danger
and patrol has been established 10
give immediate warning should break
threaten. The village OF Croton land
ing. with a population of 100, ia one
mile below.
When engineers in charge OF the
reservoir learned of the food they hur-
ried to the dam and threw open the
gates. but the outflow TO the Croton
river and thence to the Hudson was
insufficient to carry OF the rapidly rls-
ing waters entering from an area OF
S65 square miles and steps were at
once taken to avert break.
1t was expected thai the dam would
be completed late this summer. Ex-
perts had figured that II would take
about two and hair years for the
reservoir 70 MI. so, less than n month
ago temporary gates were installed
and closed. the reservoir was denuLed
of houses, trees and brush were burned
over and the basin was allowed to be-
gin filing.
The great snow fall OF the past win
ter and recent rains brought about con-
ditions on which the engineers had
not reckoned. The reservoir began
filling with amazing rapijlty. The
dam is nearly quarter OF a mile In
length. With the unexpected tiow II
filled rapidly and reached the 100 foot
mark before the danger was appreci-
ated The maximum which the dam
was intended TO hold when completed
Is i55 feet The engineers believe that
the danger will be to protect the wo.
men and children.
