said, their financial connections and
resources are such as to assure the
construction Of the railway on any
plans which they may decide upon.
The party yesterday was taken In
automobiles over the city and then
on a trip to Vineland. to look over the
territory east OF Pueblo. Today thsy
will go over the line from Pueblo to
the stone quarries at Turkey creek
and probably as far as Canon City.
1t is probable that the party will
remain In Pueblo until Friday night
in order that the members may thor
oughly acquaint themselves with the
plans Of the company.
Considerable grading has been done
between Pueblo and Turkey creek.
and II the new men interested decide
to go ahead with the project, this part
Of the line will be built first. The
eastern division would be the next
and then the northern division to Col
orado Springs. Following that would
come the construction of the electric
al transmission line to furnish power
for the pumping Of water for irrigA-
ton.
The Kansas capitalists have organ
ICED the Kansas Colorado Construc-
ton company. which will do the work
II the plans are approved.

particular reference to the firing of the

patient American volunteers from Nebraska
doing sentry duty on the extreme front
