TELEGRAPHING FROM TRAINS
Chicago & Alton S Test Satisfactory and
System Will Be Extended.

The Chicago s Alton road will estab-
hsh wireless telegraph system for it's
trains running between Chicago and St.
Louis, and the system will be extended
later to apply to all trains in the road 8
service. Messages were successfully
sent yesterday from Chicago to the Of
ficials on the limited train while it was
running fifty miles an hour. President
FELTON, said:
"By this system the dispatcher will
be able to reach any train on any part
of his division whenever he [pleases.
Trains running in close proximity to
each other will also be able to exchange
messages, as we will have TELEGRAPH
operators on all freight trains as we'll
as passenger trains. With this system
on our trains we believe that it will be
absolutely impossible to have collision
on our road, no matter what the weather
conditions are, as the operators on
every train will know the exact where
abouts of every train on the road and
will keep the train crew notified at all
times as to how close the trains are to
each other.
"It is our intention, also, to handle
commercial messages for our passengers
to and from moving trains. This will
be an exceptional boon, particularly tc
those who are interested in the hucua
tions of the stock market and matters OF
life and death.''

New York Sun Special Service.

Ne" 1otk GUN special service,
Norfolk, Va, June 9.-New York
construction companies and Belgian
capitalists are said to be back Of a
PROJECT to establish all air line trans
continental railroad system between
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the
eastern terminus to be Norfolk and the
western terminus San Francisco.
AS outlined by the chief engineer
OF the. company, J. R. Marsh, now in
ing. New York from Norfolk by water,
distance Of 3O3 miles, in eleven hours,
and reaching San Francisco from Nor
folk, a distance of 1854 miles, in
eighty hours. The total distance by
this route is 1892 miles, which is Alb
miles shorter than any existing route,
and the time thereby would be sixty
three hours less than the present sched-
ule.
Back of the project, according to Mr..
Marsh, are j. Alden Gaylord & Co. of
New York city, bankers and promoters.
The scheme embraces railway COM
pany capitalized at 500, 100000 of
bonds and $1OO,OO0,00O of stock, and a
terminal company with a capitalization
of $5O,OOO,0OO in bonds to be controlled
by the railroad.
The corporation is the Virginia, Mis-
souri, & Western Railroad company, re-
gently chartedel under the laws of
tennessee, Wlth capital stock of $780,
100000. This would be increased to
the amount noted above and the corpo-
ration chartered under the laws of Vir-
glnia.
Interested in the project is said to
be the Belgian Steel company, which
is backed by the Belgian government
and seeks to enter the United States
by furnishing the steel rails for the
double-tracking of the whole road. 1t
has agreed to take two-thirds of the
bonds of the road. The remaining
bonds have been bid for by construct
ton companies in New York city in
terested in the project by J. Alden
Gaylord & Co. Tennessee has enacted
legislation providing for the subsidiz-
ing OF the road thru the counties of
that state.
1t has been ascertained that the road
is really d project of the PENNSYLVANIA
system, to combat the Gould Rockefel-
ler-Wabash system.

FARMERS WILL, "DIG UP' {
Those in Big Stone, Stevens and Pope
Counties After a Railroad.
Snecial to The Journal,

Special to The Journal.
Morris, MIMI, June 9.-Matters are
coming to head now in regard to the
construction of railroad from Orion
vile thru Big Stone county northwest
erly, then east thru the southern part
of Stevens and Pope counties to Bel
grade, on the 500 line in Stearns coun-
ty. This would tap a rich country and
one greatly in need of railroad. Sew
eral meetings have been held by the
farmers of this county, near whose
property it is proposed to run the line,
and all have been favorable to the prof.
ect.
The farmers have expressed them
selves as willing to donate the right-of-
way and also to give $4,000 town
ship on either side of the line the whole
way, this amounting to $25 quarter
section, and is regarded as light for the
advanta ges which would result to the
farmers along the line.
Propositions are understood to have
been received from the 500 and others,
who desire to take up the project, and
it is thought to be only a matter of
few weeks before the deal can be com
pleted.
