DOUGLAS RECEIVES
TUCSON COMMITTEE
Gives Them No Assurance
That Southwestern VIII
Build to That City.

Despite the fact that Walter Doug
las, vice president of the Ell Paso anu
Southwestern granted a meeting and
a hearing to the chamber OF commerce
at Tucson to hear what the city OF 1uc-
son had to offer should the road extend
to or through that city. it is main
tanned at the general offices OF the
company at Ell Paso, that the extension
has the same status that it had q
month ago.
According to dispatches from Tucson
and Bisbee regarding the meeting pc
tween Mr. Douglas and the committee
of Tucson citizens the members OF that
committee did the talking while MI
Douglas listened and the committee re-
turned to Tucson full Of dope and
hope.
At the general offices of the railroad
it is stated that the news of the extern
sion. should it be decided to extend,
will come from New York. All the data
relating to the cost Of the extension,
and the probable earnings has been
gathered and submitted tq the New
York officers.
As one official put it, I'VE have told
them what it would cost to build and
what revenue the extension would bring
in. It is their mon$ and they will de-
eide whether or not they will spend
it"
Those who profess to have knowl-
edge of the situation, say that 1T has
been decided to build. and that the
question now is whether 1t will build
to Tucson or down the San Pedro val
ley TO Phoenix, with circumstances IA
voring the latter route. No definite in
formation was given the Tucson COM
mittee by Mr.. Douglas.
It is believed that definite informa-
4ha nv
Just as soon as the route of the extern
sion has been decided upon, and It is
certain that nothing will be given out
until it has been decided. The general
manager of the Southwestern main
tains that there is nothing doing.
