The new line will tap the Southern Pacific main line only twice, and for the most part will be constructed from minor lines already in use. The greatest amount of work to be done will be in Washington, between Home stead and Spokane, and in California in reconstructing the old Colorado railroad. Work of broad gauging the latter will begin in a few months it is said. TO CONNECT POWER PLANTS; WILL DEVELOP 84,000 H. P.
