500 LINE PREPARING TO BUILD
,725. MILES WEST TO THE COAST

Minneapolis, Jan. 25.- President
Edmund Pennington, of the 500 line,
on his return to Minneapolis from
Montreal Friday; admitted that the
company is preparing to build a
third transcontinental line through
to the coast from the twin cities. 5
| This construction work, the larg-
est in the American railway field,
will cost $4,000, 200. The new road
will be 1876 miles long, crossing the
state Of Montana. 1t will open up an
enormous territory for direct connec-
tions with the twin cities and will
strike the Canadian Pacific connec-
lions somewhere near the edge of
Montana, bordering on Washington.
Mr.. Pennington said that the road
is employing six locating crews.
which have been in the field since
last spring, and that construction
will be started as: soon as the weather
permits. OF the territory" to be-
crossed about seventy per cent Is az
ricultural land and much of it can be
Irrigated A large number Of set:
tiers are expected to follow on the
heels. of the track layers. -. --"
- The 500 line announced plans for
an eighty-miles extension Of the Am
brose line and for the. projection Of
the Plaza, N. D., line, thirty miles;
The new line will continue from;
Plaza, crossing the Missouri river at
Sansit, whence it will go west and
over the Montana line. The Yellow
stone river win be: followed for ap-,
proximately 200 miles. The line will
strike the Musselshell river in Fer
gus county, crossing the southwest
ern portion of Choteau county. Aft
er entering Teton county in the
western end of Montana, the road
will be carried to the north and west
over the Canadian boundary.
