The Missouri Pacific has her own
tracks from ST. Louis to Pueblo. From
Pueblo to Salt Lake City via Denver
the Goulds have the Denver & Rio
Grande road. From Salt Lake City to
the coast the Goulds have the new
Western Pacific which is nearing COM
pletion.
Whether this will develop into a
transcontinental route east of st. Louis
is not known. The Gould interests
have some financial difficulties in
some places which are vital to the
dreams of a through system so that it
may not be consUmmated by the
Goulds alone without some sort of a
railroad coup.
But it is the western end and par
ticularly the Kansas section of the
great system-to-be that concerns US
here. The Missouri Pacific has much
to do in Kansas. Probably no other
trunk line ever had poorer roadbed, or
poorer rolling stock with which to do
business, than has the Missouri Pacific.
Nearly every available cent of the
Gould ready money had been poured
into the Western Pacific. Then the
shaking of public confidence retarded
the normal improvements of the sys-
tenn to such an extent that the property
deteriorated in value.
The main line between Osawatomie
and Kansas City needs less improve
ment than any other line of the system
in Kansas. West of Osawatomie mil
lions will have to be spent. The branch
lines will also receive improvement. AL
ready the Missouri Pacific has extended
the Topeka branch line to Carthage,
Mo-, by securing additional tracks. This
extension of service will doubtless be
followed up by an improvement in
service and a reconstruction of the
roadbed. Between Topeka and Garnett
on this line is a decidedly fertile re-
gion, which could be built up with bet
ter service. There is a splendid oppor-

SIOUX CITY IMPROVEMENTS.
Ducky Holmes VIII Have New Stands
and Sod Diamond.

Sioux City, Ia, March 1.-Two
contractors and an architect are
figuring with Manager Ducky Holmes
on improvements at Mizzou park.
Plans have been drawn for an addi-
tional grandstand to be built to the
north of the present structure and
across to the north fence. The seat
ing capacity of the grandstand. when
completed, will be over 1000. and the
bleachers will seat about 500.
The home plate is to be switched
to the northwest and the left and CEN
ter fields accordingly enlarged. Right
field will be nearly as big as it was.
The diamond is to be sodded, and
the outfield planted to blue grass.
While these improvements are in
progress, it is likely that the club will
do its spring training at Riverside
park. The exhibition games, however,
except those on Sunday, will be play
ed at MizZou.

INVESTIGATE CRASH
OF PENNsY TRAIN
Narrow Escapes When Switch
Derails Engine and Four
Cars in Whiting.
Especial to the Newark Start

BARNEGAT, Aug. 1S.-The Pennsvl-
vania Railroad Company is today in
vestigating the derailment Of a train
of four crowded cars at a switch near
Whiting yesterday. The train, after
running at a rapid rate along the sleep
ers for almost 100 yards, jolting the
passengers and tossing them about in
side the cars, left the roadbed alto
gether, SUM deep into the soft sand on
one side, n after going a little fur
Their, the engine tarned over on its
side.
A defective switch caused the acct
dent.
For the few seconds it required the
tram to V the 100 yards the passen-
gers were in terror, thinking they had
peen struck by another train.
When the engine buried itself in a
mound of sand and pebbles, the for
end of the parlor car, which was
used as a women's retiring room. was
shivered as with a shot, and sections
of the paneling were sprung back into
the body of the car amid the confused
and struggling passengers. Great clouds
of sand and dust, which the engine
ploughed up, came pouring through the
windows n doors, temporarily blind
ing the panic-stricken passengers and
adding to the terror.
When the people finally clambered out
OF the cars the engine was almost con-
cealed from view in the bank of sand
into hic the impetus had driven it.

side of the engine when 1t turned over.

and crawled Il of the narrow aper-
ture through the gravel and dirt un-
scathed.
