NEW TRACKS
FOR THE
YARDS
BANCROFT ISSUES ORDERS TO
HURRY ALONG ViAOUCT.
Six New Passenger Tracks Planned
Handsome Greenhouse East Of
Commissary Building.

While Engineer Campbell is inclin-
ed to be reticent on the subject and
pointedly refuses TO discuss the mat
ter in detail or at length. 1t Is the
theme of general comment around
about local railroad headquarters that
General Manager Bancroft Is especial
lY pleased at the progress now being
made on tho vIaduct and has ordered
that work on the structure be pushed
to completion as early as possible, with
q view Of taking up yard enlargements
and other improvements as soon as
the big bridge proposition is out OF the
way and turned over TO the city for
general use by the public. and the
present Twentyfourth street crossing
is effectually closed up.
The plans and specifications for
yard improvements and engagements
have been approved by those In au-
thority, and the work entails radical
change from present conditions. 1t
is understood six additional passen-
ger tracks will be built Immediately
In front of the big union passenger
depot, and that these Will be used
exclusively for the accommodation of
passenger trains arriving and leaving
Ogden. Ample room, between the
tracks. Will be left for passengers and
FOR baggage, express and mail tracks
and even during the heaviest travel
there Will be an absence of the present
congested condition which exists on
the arrival Of several trains at the
same time. Tracks for switching.
making up freight trains and for the
use Of incoming and outgoing freight
trains, will be extended in every d.
rection. and the vacant ground now
existing In the center of the yards Will
be utilized for this purpose.
Among other improvements to he
made around about the Union Depo.
will be the erection OF handsome
greenhouse east of the dining car COM
missary and Office building.
AS soon as these improvements arc
fully under way 1t Is believed work on
the new freight house will be inaugu-
rated and continued until the hand
some and much-needed structure is
ready for occupancy by Joint Agent
Cheyers and his cver-increasing staff.
All in all The present year promises
to be an eyentful one in marking radi-
cal chances in I'd about railroad head
quarters. and .Ee-e improvements Will
result ir neayy increase of the pres
cnt payroll enjoyed by Ogden from
the Hartman management.

intending to resume his journey to-

lower Twenty.ffth street and shortly
afterward was accosted by a female oil
striking appearance who apparently
took almost a daughterly interest IN
him and his safety. During the briet
conversation which followed, Beals,
accompanied by his protector" pro-
oeeded about a block and then sepaT-

found that he was DennileSs.
