Denver.-A Republican special from
Fort Collins says: Colonel Powers
president of the Denver. Yellowstone
& Pacific Railway Company. accom-,
panied by Secretary Chenowith. Gen
eral Manager Hohl and Ex-Governor
Chatterton Of Wyoming, all Of that
corporation, arrived Thursday evening
and next day had a conference with the
chamber OF commerce and leading citi-
gems at which the plans OF the com
pany were specifically outlined and
laid before the meeting.
Colonel Powers stated that eondi
tional contracts for the Construction
Of the the road from Denver to Wal
colt, Wyoming, had been let and tha,
actual construction work would be
gin at Denver soon after the question
OF right-ofway through and terminal
privileges IN Fort Collins had been def
nitely settled. He asked the citizens
OF Fort Collins to furnish the right-of
way and adequate terminals free OF
expense to the company.
This the citizens are wiling to con
cede provided they are assured that
the road will be built on the located
route from Denver TO Walcott.
AS an evidence OF good faith and to
guarantee the citizens against loss In
the event OF the purchase OF the prop
erty required. the railroad company has
deposited $150.000 OF its corporate
bonds in the three banks OF this city
to be held in escrow until the road is
built through to connection with the
Union Pacific at Walcott, with the fur
hot In, h1
bonds are sold before the road Is com
pleted. the company will deposit In
their stead SIS, 900 in cash, to be held
In place OF the bonds.
Inns proposition was satisfactory to
the chamber OF commerce and to the
committee OF citizens and an agree,
ment was entered into between Col
onel Powers and the other ofi1cers OF
the railroad company and the citizens
to that effect.
Colonel Powers stated that the com
pany was considering an alternate
proposition. and that is to build from
Walden. North park. through MUDDY
pass to a connection with the MoffaI
road at some point in Middle park. In
| stead of through Fort Collins. This
route will only be considered. he said
to secure a right of way through Forl
Collins.
With the deposit OF the bonds as a
guarantee, the citizens feel that they
will be amply secured and they viii
now go forward and buy the propert.
needed for right OF way and terminals
| The chamber OF commerce resolved IT
self into a committee OF the whole Il
canvass the city for subscriptions fol
the right OF way fund and there is utssl
doubt but that the full amount re
quired will be raised within few days
Colonel Powers stated that the
money to build the road was in the
treasury and that all the company IL
waiting for is settlement Of the right
Of way question through this city
This matter disposed OF. he said, the
