RIO GRANDE MAY BUILD
A PASSENGER DEPOT

There is speculation in railroad cir
cles lust now regarding the building
operations that will be inaugrated
In ogden in the Near future PreIim-
mary work has already begun on the
new freight depot for the Hartman
people, but the Rio Grande men aver
that their company Will build their de-
pot on Wall avenue between Twenty
fourth and Twenty-third streets and
begin the handling of freight through
IT before the Hartman depot is ready
for use.
The original plans. OF the Rio Grande
architects were for a freight depot.
but today one OF the Rio Grande en-
ployes said the giving up of the use Of
the Union depot and enlarging tho
plans of the proposed r. C. W. depot
so as 10 make a combined freight and
passenger depot, are being seriously
considered
The proposition is to place the pas
senger part OF the depot on Twenty
fourth street near the Intersection of
Wall avenue, and the freight section
on Twenty-third street near Wall ave-
nue.. If the depot is enlarged as con-
templated. the expenditure on the I'M
provement will be 100000 instead of
$4,000.
Just now. however, the Gould inter
osts are taxed beavlly in the con-
struction work on the Western Pacific.
but this road is nearly completed aud
It will be only a few days until the
attention of the managers may be turn
ed In another direction
1t is said by those who arc in a po-
sllion TO know, that among the first
things TO be attended to after the
completion of the Western Pacific. Will
be the improvement of the Ogden
terminus
