Trucliec River Plant. Said to be

"A dispatch from Reno, Nevada, re-
wives the rumor that the Southern Pa
citic will electrify its road from Sparks
to San Francisco, covering the summit
OF the Sierras with electric motive
power. and that T.. H. Hartman is
behind the interests which own the
great Truckee river power plant. The
dispatch goes on to state that the in
terests of The Truckee River company
have passed To the Fleischhacker in-s
terests, and the actual sale should be
contaminated within a few days. Cen
eral Manager Baum and Superintendent
Naphaly were. in Carson and Virginia
last week, looking over the old prop-4
erty of the company at those points.
The men are comforting with the
main Offices of the Fleischfackers IN
San Francisco, and as soon as their
report is made it is expected the
money for the property Will be paid
over and control established.
That Hartman is behind the
Fleischhackers is feasible enough.
when the source of the power of the
company is considered The Truckee
river parallels the Southern Pacific
tracks from Reno to a distance above
$I'loristoii. AT Floriston is located a
plant for the generation of electricity
for Reno, Carson and Virginia. 1t
would be easy to install third rail
and electrify the road from Florlston.
GETS GOULD PROPERTY. . @
Hartman has just gained control OF
the Great Western Power company, in
the face of the Gould opposition, ac-.
.cording to the dispatch. The Great
Western has been a Gould company.
and it Is said its output was intended
for the Western Pacific. Gould's con-
cession to Hartman in return for
financial assistance is shown from the
fact that the Western Pacific contracts
with the Great Western have been
turned over to Hartman. The Great
Westerns power plant Is located 40
miles from the western head of the
new Southern Pacific tunnel in the
Sierra, and a power line to the tracks
would be an easy matter. If Hartman
to run electrics over the noun
tains, he could use this power. This
power would also be sufficient to fur
nish the Alameda county suburban
lines, which the Great Western is said
to have purchased. The electricfca-
ton of the Southern Pacific lines from
Sparks to San Francisco will greatly
decrease the very expensive haul over
the high Sierra into California.
