ID. a II. a. TO BE SOLD.


The Denver and Rio Grande rail-
road will be sold TO the highest bidder
November 70. Probably no American
railroad has had e pore romantic
history. Founded by Gen. William J.
Palmer in 1871, the road was designed
originally for line connecting Dsn-
yer with 81 Paso. A change In the
plan was brought about when the
mining craze brought prospectors
from every corner OF the globe. and
this resulted in changing the direc-
ton OF the roads development and
the laying OF branch lines into the
mining territory.
A contest sprang up between the
Union Pacific and the Denver and
Rio Grande for control or the Rocky
mountain territory. the latter road
invariably maintaining its advantage.
Palmer survived the competitive
foray about twelve years, being forced
out by Jay Gould In 1883. Constantly
the object of financial campaigns. the
roads aggregate funded indebted
ness runs well up into $250,o00ooO.
But these obligations. like common
debt. finally become 0utfawed.
When the court announced that no
bid would be considered November
20 under $4,000, 900 II can be readily
imagined that much OF the quarter
billion dollars mentioned IN the IMAM
cial manuals has long ago passed into
historical limbo.

who rely upon the telegraph for
prompt action on the New York
