RAILROADS BUY LAND.
Ere and Ne5o York Central Viii
Improve Jersey Yards.

John N. Golding, acting for the Erie Railroad
and the New York Central Railroad announced
yesterday that two important improvements
were contemplated by these companies The more
important. that OF the Erie, embraces the ex-
penditure OF Ssoo0Oo0 TO improve the terminal
facilities at Jersey City
Mr.. Goding purchased from the Grafiin estate
at Little Ferry. n. j.. for the Erie one hundred
acres of land extending from the tracks 70 the
Hackensack River. He also mace extensive
purchases in Jersey City for the improvements
contemplated there. The Erie plans to make its
terminal at Jersey City one of the most ex-
tcnsive in the country, far as room for
switching and handling OF passengers and freight
is concerned. At present the railroad is forced
to move slowly owing 10 the tunnel out of Jersey
City. through which all trains pass.
THE Erie Railroad ar present has reached the
absolute limit of its capacity" official of the
railroad said yesterday. we expect TO make
very extensive improvements. but at present We
cannot handle more attend to oHr
passengers a whit better"
II is the idea of the officials II is believed 10
purchase eventually all the land possible about
the present terminal. Through this land four
track cut will be made, connecting, beyond the
hills. with the present tracks The tunnel will
then be used entirely for freight while the four
track cut will be used for passenger traffic solely.
In this way thousands more passengers can be
handled quickly and with more comfort than is
az present done with those that the Erie.
The other purchase made by Mr.. Golding was
from the same estate at Little Ferry, of about
fifty acres of land. extending from the Little
Ferry drawbridge TO the Hudson River Ter
minal COmpany'S overhead tracks. This was
sold to the New York Central Railroad This
property Will be added to the present freight
switching yards at the Weehawken terminal,
where the leased West Shore Railroad has its
terminal The purchase of the fifty acres, IL is
said, will make ii possible for the West Shore
trains TO be dispatched from Weehawken much
more quickly than at present.
