EXPECT WAR WILL CAUSE
 RAILWAY TO BE RUSHED

Officials at railroad headquarters are going ahead with plans for the coming season, regardless of the threatened war with the exception that preliminary plans have been con- sidered by which work on the line to the coal fields can be rushed.
 ~ When asked this morning what eff feet a war with Germany would have on the work, a high official said:
 "Either the road will be finished through to the coal fields at top Speed in order to insure this fuel supply for the navy or work will be shut down. !"
 It is evident that the local officials expect the former alternative to be put into effect as orders are being sent to the purchasing agent in Se- attle for supplies and material need ed for reconstruction work contem- plated this year.
 Contracts are being let for piling to replace trestles along the line and preparations are being made to open the road beyond Mile 40 at the ear Hest opportunity.-Seward Gateway.

Premier Brew ster will take up the matter with Sir Robert Borden at the forthcoming session of Parliament.
