DESERT CUTOFF OF
SANTA FE MAKES
FAST PROGRESS
Track from Parker to Bengal
Completed for Thirty-one
Miles Graders Find Easy
Conditions.

Especial Correspondence 10 wornins Journail
Wickenburg, Ariz, Feb. l,.-Worl
on the extension OF the Arizona and
California cut-om of the Santa Fc.
from Parker to Bengal is progressing
rapidly. The graders are working
now at mile so and the track Is com
plete for th~irty-one miles.
From the very first the conditions
have been Of the best and no trouble
or delay has been encountered. The
first ten miles out Of Parker required
more work and took more time than
any of the rest of the road. Since
that was finished the work on the
grade has heen easy. No trouble has
been encountered regarding help.
Several car loads of laborers were
brought here from the north and east
and have remained up to the present
time, and as more have been required
they have been found nearer home,
until at the present time there are
ever 500 men employed at the differ
ent camps along the line.
4 train leaves Parker every after
noon and goes out to the end OF the
line. taking the mail, express. sup
plies and such necessities as are re-
Quired and returning the same night.
AT Videllc, sixteen miles west OF
Parker, n well Is being sunk by the
company, ana although they are at
present down $50 feet, they have no
sign of water. About 50 miles west
of Parker there is an old well where
they have been able 10 secure plenty
of water, and at mile so another well
has been sunk, and at ~ feet they
have an abundance of good water.
" hieh is used for all purposes. and
only shows the faintest traces OF al
kali.
The track is being laid at the rate
of one mile per day, or six miles per
week, as the men do not work sun
days, unless something unusual oc-
ours that requires il.
At the present rate the grade will
be finished by April LIST. Easy enough,
and the entire line to Bengal finished
by the middle Of May, or at the latest
by June LIST, in time for the excur-
sions to California, which means a
quicker and easier method of reach
ing the coast than the people In this
of Arizona have ever had.

Coal Car shortage.

Topeka, Feb. 19.-Coal cars are be-
coming scarce ana are at n premium
Just now, due to the fear of a strike
and the efforts Of the railroads and
ali heavy to store all the
coal they can get hold Of. Although
the Rock Island. Union Pacific and
Santa Fe had an ample supply of cars
previously, they are being diverted to
other lines OF late ana a scarcity Is
reported. Several mines in the coun-
try hav only been able to work half
time because Of the shortage. The
railroad officials are making every
effort to accumulate the cars and
send them down the line, but other
roads are hiding them away and it is
impossible to procure enough. The
shortage of cars promises to be an
annoying feature of the anticipated
strike.

Brass Trimmings Doomed.

Brass trimmings on coaches and
cars on the Santa Fc are to be a thing
of the past. An order has been is
sued that all brass shall be replaced
by statuary bronze throughout pas
senger coaches. The hat racks, side
rods and other fixture, that are now
made Of costly brass, will be covered
with a coat OF bronze. Brass is con-
stantly in need of polishing and clean
ing, necessitating a large expense.
when the size of the system is tax
en- into consideration and il has been
decided to do away with this by the
use OF bronze, which will hold its col
or and requires but little cleaning.
The order applies to the entire sys-

NEAL ATCHISON
 DIES SUDDENLY

Frozen in at Hot Springs on the Mar tha Glow, enroute to the Iditarod ac- companied by his wife and child, Neal Atchison, better known to practically everyone in the interior of Alaska as "Curley," died about o'clock on Octo- Der l3, while on his way from the Hot Springs landing on the Panama river to the Hot Springs town.
 He was seen to fall and then attempt to rise. He was immediately placed on 8 sled and taken into the town, but all attempts to revive him failed, and it is believed that death had occurred at the time of falling. Heart disease is given as the cause.
 News of the sudden demise of the well-known young man was immedi- ately dispatched to Fairbanks to the Fraternal Order of Eagles, of which or ganization Curley was an esteemed member, Arrangements were at once taken up by the order to look after his burial, but according to advices, it seems that the burial will take place at the Springs.
 While making the trip which re- suited in his death, MT. AtchisOn was going over to the town to secure quar- ters for his family, as it was found im- possible for the Glow to proceed farther. The townspeople took keen interest in the welfare of the widow and child and everything possible was done for their care and assistance, in cluding fund of $500 which was raised, presumably to assist Mrs. Atchison back to Fairbanks.
 She is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs Nyholm, of the Regina hotel in this city, and it is presumed that she was on her way with her husband to assist her parents in the conduct of that hos telry.
 According to the last letters received by Mrs. Nyholm, she thought that her daughter and son-in-Inw would not come down this fall, and it was some time be- fore the identity of the deceased could be known certainly.
