StcArriw, Wash.. Feb. 26.-It is stated r
that the Great Northern & Seattle and ri
Montana railroads have practically con- ri
solidated cnd that through truins will it
soon le run from St. Paul to Seattle vi a
Winnipeg iver the Canadian Pacific. the rr
Fairiaven & Southern and the Lake g
d Shore & Eastern. A meeting of the stock b
; holders of the Seattle & Montana was ii
held today. The following were elected ft
5 trusteea: J.. .. tHuis nd WV. P. Clouch a
of St. Paul, h. t) Graves and D. II. Gil r
man of Seattle. The trust eis then elected a
R. were J. .1. hill, president, and W. P. c
Clounh, vice-president.
THE OREAT NOiTHiEitN.
Rapid Progress Mtatdi on the Weatern a
Extenusion. I,
u COl. W. P. Clough,vice-presidentof the it
Great Northern, in a recent interview in Ii
Seattle, gave the following interesting In- kl
formation of the pragresa of the western w
extension and the pfoposed Puget sound d
line: "The line tainr here to Portland is co
M yet under consideratiou. The arrargemient i
Ietweei the Union Pacific and the Guest
- Northern contempilated that the latter r
should have an opportunity to examine ii
and consider the proposed routes before
going on with construction, and the
Great Northern has never had that chan: e v,
till within the past few weeks. The sub- o
ject of the route is now under considera
tion and, being a matter of very great
consequence, will receive very careful
ie study. Whether the result will be the s
5 resumption of work on the existing line °
or the abandonment of that line and the
location of a new one, is something that
cannot ie decided for some little time It
, yet. Examination are now being made a
with the view of getting at all the pus
sibiliiies afforded by the country between ri
- the two points.
"Netther Mr. Bogue nor Mr. Beckler ri
has yet been given authoritative charge n
over the construction of the line, so far
as the Great Northern is coucerned. The
Smain line fronm the east is progresseter
with great rapidity. One hundred ad
thirty miles of track have been 1aid from u
the esatern end, and the grade has been A
complet d from the end of the track to
the niumnit of the Rocky mountains. ii
U Front the summit to the Kiotenal river C
the line is covered with graders. As fast )
as the location is decided on the line will g
b le put under contract and covered with 1
men. The line has not been decided on g
further than th9 eastern line of Wash.
ington, and it will not ie practicab:e to
do so until a decision has been made a4
to the pass in the Cascade range which
will be adopted. That will probably be h
decided within the ni xt ninety days. We a
li do not expect to find a pass In the Cat
eadis which we can traverse without aP
tun tel. p
The expectation is that the terminii i
shops and yards will be at Thompson'r n
Cove, and in all probability they will lie a
the main ones for the sound. ihe tnh- k
cial terminus of the Great Northern has
been declired in its Pacific extension
u inortgaie to lie at Seattle atid Swias fti ii
long ago. We are making every effort
to git our transcontinental line finiahed it
by J.an. 1, 1503, and by that titte, I trust, ri
it Portland line will be finished. Still,
that may le somewhat delayed by viriousi
complications."
