Local MEN WORK FOR

5aptain Wilson and Mr..
KilIen Attend New Jersey
Railroad Conference
HREEATLANTICCITY
ROUTES CONSIDERED

Captain Horace Wilson, of the Will
son Line and Clarence c. Killen, sec
retary of the Chamber of Commerce,
are attending a conference today of
representatives of New Jersey Cham
oers of Commerce, regarding a Penns-
grove-Atlantic City railroad The
irst meeting was held at Woodstown,
y. j., this morning, and this after
loon there will be a meeting at
Elmer. n. ]. Dinner was served at
he latter place Should the road be
built, Wilmington will become an inn
portant connecting link for passenger
and freight traffic between the north
and the south and between the south
and the Atlantic resorts on the New
Jersey coast
Two routes are under consideration.
One. in which the Reading railway
officials have shown an interest, to the
extent of having their engineers esti-
mate on cost, is to have the Reading
build an extension from the end OF
one of its lines at Mullica Hill,
through Woodstown, Sharpstown and
South PennsgrOve to Deep Water
Point there to make ferry connection
with the company's Pigeon Point pier
n South Wilmington. Working in
conjunction with the Baltimore and
Ohio. this would give connection
for southern freight and passenger
business to Atlantic City by way of
Williamstown Junction, and through
afiliation of the Central railroad OF
New Jersey. with which there is al
ready a traffic arrangement, there
would be a northern connection TO
New York.
This would also give the duPOnts
a new line for northern shipments
from their New Jersey works from
Deep Water Point to New York and
New England points.
This would necessitate the construc-
tion of about Is miles of road, at a
cost. estimated by the Reading, OF
100000.
Another route involves a Pennsyl-
vania railroad connection and the
construction of about 80 miles Of
road via Sharpstown, Woodstown
Daretown and Elmer, connecting al
Newfield with the present West Jer.
sey road. This proposition would in
vOive the construction OF II miles Of
track from Elmer to Newield and q
miles from a point near Daretown tC
Pennsgrove.
The construction of an air line. G.
miles long from Pennsgrove TO Allan
tic City. which has been considered
possibility, is not as attractive as The
other two as the expense will b
heavier. about $4,000 a milo beinl
required for construction.
Following the conference today tn
whole matter will be gone over 10
morrow I'm a meeting at Elmer, ant
the Wilmington Chamber Of Com
merce and other commercial bodie
win have representatives present. ]
Is expected that some definite actiOi
will be taken az this meeting.
