FOR ELECTRIC; II 1 ROSEBURG TO j COOS BAY ! i i Officers Announce Construction Begins in bO Days COOS BAY TRACTION CORP, Bonds Guaranteed by Marine Trust and Savings Bank ol San -Francisco, Calif. To begin construction work within sixty days from this, date upon n standard gunge electric railway line between Roseburg and Coos Hay. is the announced purpose of the Coos Day Traction Corporation, whoso principal officers were In this city today. This corporation has nn au thorized capital of $1,000,000, and its officers are: Oeo. T. Averill, presi dent; W. P. Evans, secretary and manager; X. U. Campbell, tiv.is-.i.v.-and manager; J. 11. Hobinson. chief engineer and manager; .1. H. Burners, vice president and manager of real estate department. All these gentle men were here today except Mr. Campbell. The articles of Incorpora tion of this company were filed with the Secretary of State in Salem. Ore gon, on July 2.1th. The Incorporat ors named are: Ceo. M. Perrine. Geo. F. Averill. W. II. Campbell. A. T. Harding and V. P. Evans. They an nounce that tliey have no connection with the movement, of Messrs. Clark and Haines for building a steam road from Coos Bay to noseburg or any other point. This is to be nn elec tric ratjl and has no connection in any way with the S. P. Co. or other railroad company now operating in this state. Detnils of the proposition which this company is making to the citi zens of Douglas nnd Coos counties are given more fully on page 2 of today s Review, together with a copy of the bank guarantee given by the Marine Trust and Savings Hank, of San Francisco. We are assured by President Averill and Secretary Evans that this movement is no mushroom affair, although not heretofore made known to the public. The matter has been handled quietly and the financial end of the proposition ar ranged before any public announce ment was made. As to who is sup plying the funds, of course no infor mation is given out, but it Is reputed to be San Francisco and New York capital. Mr. Evans is n well known resi dent of Marshfield and is the presi dent of the Port of Coos Hay. Mr. Averill Is recently from New York. Mr. Evans has had about 15 years of practical experience in railroad construction. He assures us that this road will be of a similar type as the Oregon Electric line now in opera tion between Portland and Salem, with standard 70-pound steel rails and other equully substantial equip ment. He assures us, however, that he does not intend to infer that this movement has any connection with the Oregon Electric. Mr. Evans goes from here to Portland to confer with W. S. Burstow & Co., constructors of the Oregon Electric P.. R., and ex pects (o employ them on the con struction of this line. He says the construction will begin both from the noseburg and Marshfield ends of the line just as soon as the necessary details can be arranged. Mr. Evans further Informs us that terminal arrangements on Coos Ray have already been made, and that they expect to have the line from Roseburg to Myrtle Point In opera tion within 12 months from this date and to Coos Ray In 20 months. A Hue to llandon Is also Included In the company's plans. That there may be no hampering of operations on account of traffic arrangements or fixing of rates with other trans portation companies, plans are al ready under way for a line of steam ers running Into Coos Bav from Snn Francisco, and this will probably reach Portland also. Chief Engineer Robinson has had experience in railroad building in Colorado and is nlso familiar with conditions In Oregon. No serious engineering difficulties are expected, and construction and operation are to follow the location of the road as rapidly as men and money can ao the work, so we are Informed by the officers of the company. Whenever a section of five or ten miles nre built cars will be put into operation thereon. As has been known for some time, the Oregon Electric Hue Is nlready mapped out as far south as Rose burg. nnd bv the construction of an electric road to Coos Bay direct con nection will be given with at least two great transcontinental routes. Pres. Averill will remain bore probably until Monday looking after several matters In connection with this railroad movement. j No sort of service Is surer, qulck ' er, cheaper or more widely adapta ble than want ad service.
