statement of John Burnham, the super
intendent, and which Burr says would
cover an area Of 66 acres. These ngureS
are for only the last two months, anu
represent but small fraction OF the
number of cars of glass that have been
unloaded in the city, and also a sma,i
part of what must be brought mere
before the work of rebuilding Is I'm

the belt line, is not, however, concerned
as to the number of acres OF glass
that is being brought in here. He
complains of the consignees who do
not unload freight promptly and IN
speaking Of this he said yesterday:
There are 40 cars of glass now on
the belt line and for the last month
the consignee has been unloading only
two cars day. At this rate il viii
take him 20 days to unload the cars
we have on hand without getting In
new ones. Through his slowness in
unloading he is blocking up our tracks,
using the cars as warehouses and we
have been put to much Inconvenience
for the want of trackage by these cars
We have run IA of these cars down
to East street near Jackson. have
complained to several merchants and
have asked them to take delivery Of
their freight and they nave not paid
the slightest attention to my protests.
Indeed, l have gone as far as to ask
them for their signs, as they are not
only using the cars as warehouses
but also state property, and suggested
that they stick UP their names so as
to let people know their whereabouts.

down the desert and inspect the work
performed by Randolph and Cory on
the west bank of the Colorado river
