Whole No. 725
Greene Road Over The Sierra Msdres.


 the Sierra Madre from the state of Chihuahua into the state of Son. ora, which has been formed in the United States, has been receiv- ed in Mexico City, says the Mex ican Herald. The new company is formed by Col. w. c. Greene, principal owner of the Rio Grande. Sierra Madre and Pacific, and as- sociates, and has the title of the Sierra Madre and Pacific Railroad company. It is capitalized at $6,- 100000 gold.
 According to the report in circu
 lation now the Rio Grande, Sierra Madre and Pacific will be extended from Casas Grandes across the mountains by way of Santo Tomas to La Dura, Sonora, where connec- tion will be made with the Cana nea, Yaqui River and Pacific. That such an extension would result from the purchase of the road by Colonel Greene in 1904 has been the general belief. The principal difficulty has been the finding of 9 direct and not too expensive route across the mountains, and this has evidently been found. The ex- tension of the road will be about 400 miles in length and it is re- ported the survey for the entire distance has been completed, and the letting of contracts for construction is expected soon. The Rio Grande, Siera Madre and Pa clfic was projected by the late Solon Humphreys, a former president of the Wabash, and the intention then was to ultimately build the road across the mountains to one of the Pacific coast port cities. When the road was completed to Casas Grandes it was found that feasible route through the noun tains was hard to find and apparent ly the plan of extending the road to Sonora was given up. Since then the road has lain dormant until purchased by Colonel Greene indicated that 1t was to be extend ed to connect and afford better transportation facilities from the Greene mines and timber lands in Chihuahua and Sonora, and this Is evidently the intention of the owner in projecting the road through the mountains. Since the purchase by Colonel Greene the construction of an extension to Temosachic to open up valuable mineral and timber tracts and con- meet with the Chihuahua and Pa ellie has commenced and is rapid ly nearing completion. Recently 1t was reported that a large bond issue was contemplated to provide for other extensions and branches. With the completion of the ex- tension to La Dura and connec- tlon with the Cananea, Yaqui River and Pacific, Colonel Greene will have. an outlet through to Guaymas as we'll as connection with the Mexican Central at Chi. huahua through the medium of the Chihuahua and Pacific when the Temosachic extension is and direct line to Fl Paso by way of the present Rio Grande, Sierra Madre and Pacific road. The new road will connect his holdings in Chihuahua and Sonora and will open up rich

There Is no doubt now but that the
Arizona and Colorado railroad will
complete Its extension from Pearce,
Ariz, to Douglas The recent open

and the United States Governments the largest and
unquestionably the handsomes railroad station in The
world provided only for the convenience Of the
citizens OF the United States but as notable architectural
addition to the great public buildings of the Capitol Cy
1t is monumental eclGce and worthy type Of the l,,ne

beauty spot OF the world
The station including the C)nc)ur,e is longer than the
Capitol and nearly wide The waiting room is larger

which is the train lobby longer than the interior Of the
Capitol building if it continuous hail. and half as
wide 1t is the largest building constructed for Ike
purpose
Within this great structure there every convenience

to serve his purpose to the best advantage.
The lofty ached entrances face plaza large as an

adorned with shrubbery and fountains
The trackage is sufficient for all demands upon it and
the entrance and exit from the trains are separated the
confusion and ostlng of huying crowds moving in oppo-

The bigness of the station is immessive lis utilities
