visable to construct ferry near Ster-

on the transmission lines. More than two hundred men will be engaged on this work until the lines are complet- ed.
 The construction of the distributing station and the transmission lines is regarded as the forerunner of the elec- trifcation of the Bingham X Garfield railroad and possibly the Salt Lake X Los Angeles, operating between Salt air and Salt Lake.
 It is also possible that the Salt Lake distributing will figure in the ultimate electrifcation of the Denver x Rio Grande. However, the prime object of the Salt Lake station is to furnish power to the Merchants Light & Power company, holding franchise in Salt Lake. Power will be furnish ed to the surrounding mining and smelling camps. Lines will be run to Bingham to supply the mining con- panies with power and to Garfield for the operation of the mills and smelters at that point.
 Although admitting that the new work has been started, P. F. Sawyer, vice president and general manager of the company, last night said he was unable to outline the plans for the ne W station.
 I've have established a camp" said Mr. Sawyer, land have started the driving of piles. A spur track has also been built to the site of the sta tion. but further than that am not al liberty to detail the plans of the com pany."
 He was even more reluctant to out line the cost of the new plant, e have forgotten now" he laughlnglN replied when asked the probable cost of the plant.
 Markham Cheever. chief enginee for the company, in charge of th' work west of Salt Lake, declined to b' interviewed regarding the new dis tributng station. "You will have t see Mr. Sawyer" was Mir. Cheever' reply to questions concerning th plans for the new plant.-Salt Lax Herald Republican.

 Power Plant is Started

Construction work on the new D. O00,0O distributing station of the Utah Power X Light company. which will ultimately distribute power to Salt Lake, surrounding mining camps and points south of Salt Lake, has been commenced. Work has already reached a definite stage and, within a week or so, the erection of steel tow. CTS to carry the current to and from the distributing station will be con- menced.
 Operations thus far have been con- ducted quietly and only passengers be- tween Bingham and Salt Lake were aware of the scene of activity present. ed at the site of she new station, six and one half miles west of Salt Lake. Even now officials of the company are reluctant to outline the complete plans of the company.
 However, they admit that a con- struction camp has been established and that the work of driving piles to reach T solid formation has com nenc. ed. A spur track has been built from the lines of the Bingham X Garfield railroad to the site of the plant, over which the machinery and material for the new plant will be transported.
 Although the officials of the con- pany have made no public announce ments concerning their plans, Salt Lake engineers declare that the new plant will be one of the most complet e distributing stations in the United States Orders for the new machinery have already been placed, It will be shipped to Salt Lake as soon as the plant has reached a stage where the machinery can be installed. Single pieces of the new equipment are sait to weigh forty tons.
 The fact that the company had com pleted plans for it's transmission line: was announced several weeks ago when the orders for the new stee towers were placed in the east. A part of the order has already beer shipped and the company IS laying plans for the commencement of worl

 These groups are to be operated un- der a lease, conditioned on an option to purchase the stock owned by G. w. Hull, after two years of exploration has been conducted. The agreement has been ratified and the new syndi- cate is now in charge, perfecting pre- liminary arrangements for beginning operations.
 Both groups on account of their rela- tive location to the famous United Verde mines, are considered very va lu' able Exploration has been conducted by Mr. Hull for the past 20 years on limited scale in attaining depth. Geo. logical conditions are identical to the United Verde.
