cities by one stroke of the pen-and in
return they granted the Union Pacific
the right from Mcpherson to Hutchin-
son, Kama distance of % miles.
Needless to say President Adams lost
his job as a result of this contract
and the Union Pacific has been watch
ing for flaws in the contract ever since.
On the other hand the Rock Island has
been living right up to the letter of the
deal in order that the 999 year right
might not be disturbed.
Not long ago some of the Rock Is
land officials noted that certain trans
fer tracks at Mcpherson were getting
out of repair and were unsafe for the
passage of Union Pacific trains in case
the Union Pacific wished to use the
line. This is in direct violation of the
contract and before the Union Pacific
could discover the weakness the Rock
Island had the track fixed up in fine
shape for traffic-even though the track
is not used to any extent. The contract
was saved.
May Use 1t for Cutoff.
The Union Pacific has not used the
inson on the Rock Island for 20 years
and there is considerable talk now that
the line will be used as an entrance and
cutoff to the Salt City. The proposals
of this entrance brought to mind to
the railroad men the old contract which
will exist until the year 289S That is
a long time away and the Rock Island
is reaping the benefits every day from
the slip of former President Adams.
All of the railroad laity' who Won
der why the Rock Island does not use
its own tracks intoKansasCity' or why
the Rock Island don't build them
selves will see by this explanation that
the existing conditions are far super
Tor to any other plan that could posi-
bic be made. 1t costs millions of dol
lars for railroad to gain an entrance
into railroad center like Kansas City
and with the excellent double track
service over the Union Pacific the Rock
Island has a contract that would be
welcomed by any railroad in the coun-
try

SANTA FE WATCHES WESTON.
Railroad Projects and Keeps Track of
Veteran Pedestrian.

San Bernardino, Cal, Feb. Edward
Payson Weston, the aged pedestrian,
reached San Bernardino shortly after
9 o'clock yesterday morning. At the
Santa Fe depot he was met by officials
of the company. There was a large
crowd of railroad men and others wait
ing to greet the traveller, who covered
the 20 miles from Upland to San Ber-
nardino in a little more than five hours.
A room in the office of the superin-
tendent was turned over to Weston and
after removing his travel stains he ate
breakfast, which had been prepared by
the Harvey house. After a short rest
the veteran pedestrian again started
out and planned on reaching Hesperia
before night.
Mr.. Weston was accompanied from
Los Angeles to this city by Roadmaster
F. s. Purdy, who carried the travellers
outfit on a motor car. Here Roadmas-
r w. F. Perris took charge and viii
accompany him as far as Barstow. On
his entire trip Mr.. Weston will be ac-
companied by officials or men OF the
track department, who will see that he
safely reaches his destination.
The Santa F'e. the route OF which
company Mr.. Weston is to follow to
Chicago, will keep continual account If
his whereabouts. AS he passes each
station the fact will be wired to di-
vision headquarters, which in turn will
report to the general officials.

CAPTURING RAILROAD LINES.
Hutchinson After Frisco and Union
Pacific-Wil Have Five Systems

Hutchinson, Kan. Feb. s.-Before
many more months roll by Hutchin-
son will be on five railroad systems
and have three main lines of railway
There is every reason to believe that
the Union Pacific will be running
trains into Hutchinson this year, and
that the Frisco system will have its
line built into Hutchinson this sum-
mer, and the Missouri Pacific will be
operating as main line through
Hutchinson.
That the Missouri Pacific really
means business and that through
trains will be established from Hutch
inson west to Pueblo, Colo, and east
to Little Rock, Ark, is varified by the
statement of Missouri Pacific general
officials.
The Frisco will also be urged to
build in from Burton or Patterson,
the few miles necessary and there is
good reason for belief that this will
be done this summer.
Committees from the Commercial
club will go to Omaha to confer with
the Union Pacific people, and to St
Louis to see the head of the Frisco
System. By the first of April there
will be things doing in railroad line
and it won't be any paper railroad
project either.

KANSAS ROAD TO IRRIGATE.
Garden City, Gulf & Northern Max
ing Plans for Southwest Kansas.

Garden City, Feb. 9.-Not only is
the Garden City, Gulf & Northern
railroad going south and opening up
the country lying below Garden City,
but there are other evidences of de-
veIopment, including the revival of
an irrigation project.
The question of irrigation along the
Cinarron river through southwest
Kansas which has invited the atten-
ton of promoters for several years is
to become a reality. John w. .Baugh-
man is the prime mover in the pro-
ject and has associated with him
several men of wealth.
The extent of this new project was
not definitely decided upon until Mr..
Baughman, in company with c. A.
Van Scoy of Denver, w. E. Adams, a
civil engineer of Lewiston, Indiana.
and Ray Edwards of Plains, went
over the country concerned in the
project and after considerable pros
pecting found a splendid location
for a dam at the intersection of the
north and south forks of the Cimar-
ron in southwest Grant county, and
upon the advice of the civil engineer
Mr.. Baughman Immediately filed the
notices of appropriation at the coun-
ty seat and posted the same as re-
quired by law.
1t is estimated that the volume of
water will be sufficient to irrigate
something like 10000 acres and the

Rock Islands Great Entrance
Contract With Union Pacific.
Made and Executed by Attorney
Nj. A. Low of Topeka.
FAVORS ROCK ISLAND.
Former President OF Z. p. Fired
for Making Arrangements.
Other Items of General Interest
in Railroad Circles.
FAVORS ROCK ISLAND.

Many Topeka railroad men have often
wondered what constituted the con-
tract between the Rock Island and the
Union Pacific in the use of the latter's
tracks between this city and Kansas
City 1t is also a question in railroad
circles in Topeka-why does the Union
Pacific allow the Rock Island to use
this valuable stretch and thus enter
the rich Kansas City field?
In explanation it might be said that
the Union Pacific is not allowing the
Rock Island to use their tracks because
they need the money. And the Rock Is
Etnd is not worrying because they do
not have their own tracks to Kansas
City from the west. In fact this con-
tract between the Rock Island and the
Union Pacific is one of the greatest
contracts ever made in the history of
the Rock Island-but not in the his
tory of the Union Pacific.
Not only does the Rock Island take
advantage of the Union Pacific en-
trance into Kansas City but the en-
trance into Omaha and into Denver all
comes under this one contract. 1t was
the prettiest piece of railroad contract
ing ever transacted in the west and
has caused the shedding of many tear
among the officials of the Union Pa
cific However, it is useless because
the contract is good for 999 years.
President Adams Dream.
The story canters around the time
when Charles Francis Adams was. pres
iGent of the Union Pacific in 1889. 1t
seems that President Adams had beau
tifuI dreams of the Galveston outlet
a nd the trade to the gulf. He thought
that in making a contract with the
Rock Island whereby he could get from
Mcpherson to Hutchinson over the lat
ter's tracks he would make this valu-
able outlet complete and thus give to
the Union the cream of the traffic of
the gulf
President Adams could not make the
greement fast enough-and it might be
said in connection with this that the
Rock Island came just as fast-there
was a regular headon collision of Off
Gals and NJ. A. Low of Topeka for
the Rock Island closed the contract for
999 years as fast as he could sign his
name and get together with the pa
pers.
For this stretch between Mcpherson
and Hutchinson the Rock Island was to
get into Kansas City from Topeka over
the Union Pacific; to use the tracks
of the Union Pacific from Limon. COL.
re Denver; and to use the Union Pacific
bridge from Council bluffs to Omaha.
Thus it will be SEEM that sthe- Rock
Island got into three great western

Union Pacific Leases Thirty-Three
Acres of Land in Salina.

Salina, Kan, Feb. 9.-The Union Pa
cific tie yards have been located and
leased and the work on the new yards
will be begun at once. The tract leased
is located, and includes about 80 acres
of ground belonging to the Schippel
estate. Tracks will be extended into it
at once.
c. A Black the tieman who has
charge of locating the yards and leasing
the grounds, stated to a reporter this
morning that the piece of ground Is
little larger than is needed for the new
yard, but lies well and will make an
excellent yard and besides it provides
fire protection, which was not afforded
by other tracts which were offered for
lease. He said that there would be
work enough to keep the tie gang pussy
for two wears for there will be a con-
slant string of tie cars coming in all
the time About 100000 ties will be
stored here.
