The building Of the new Burllne-

by that work, it was said in railroad
circles today. IL is said that the
Burlington has nesotiated with that
road for the hauling of materials to
various points which will be close
to the NJ. X. & T. line between
Moberly and Monroe City. The
Katy, il is said, will have to build a
number OF spur tracks from its
main track to points where the
material will be placed for the use
by the Burlington track builders.
For a number of miles in places
between this city and Monroe City
the Burlington survey and the Katy
rur close to one another The
Burlington line from Moberly will
run to Palmyra and Quincy.
Local railroad men state that the
present survey of the Burlington is
made so as to give a line that will
enable that road to haul almost
twice AS much tonnage between
Moberly and Monroe City as is
hauled over the Katy tracks in that
direction. Some of the heaviest
engines of the road will be enabled
TO run over the new line, the rail-
road men say.-Moberly Demo-
