Willamette-Pacific Railroad Is Nearing Completion ROAD WIEL COST $11,000,000 Approximately Half of the Money Necessary to Build tbe Road Was Spent in Ore gonDouglas Co. Benefitted KffiKXK. Or.. Jan. 27. The wed ding of Mr. Lane County and Mi s Coos Hay by the bands of Iron of the Southern I'aclMc Kailroad Company, as described by Kay L. iioodtich, toast muster, was celebrated tonight bv L'.'.O residents of Kugene. Marsh field and other Willamette-Pacific points, who assembled at a banquet here. A railroad 121 miles In length and costing $1 l.ooo. odd, extending from this city westward to the coani and thence down the coast to Coos liar. and its near completion, offered tho occasion for the Jollification. Willi the arrival of the evening train from those towns on the Willamette-Pacific to which It now af fords service at 5 o'clock, the fun began with a burlesque performance which embraced everything from a letter by P.esident Hproule, of the Southern Pacific Company, telling of the company's future plans for the city of Kugene, to the Henry Kord peace ship, Oscar II. The banquet proper aib staged in the Chamber of Commerce dining room, beginning at ti: 30 o'clock. TonHtniaster Goodrich and Thomas O. Kus.scll, of the engineering depart ment of the Willamette-Pacific, read comparative figures from early rail road surveys. Prenldent lloerer, of the Chamber I of Commerce, on behalf of the city of Kit gone, thanked the Southern Pacific Company, pledging loyalty to I lie railroad In the future. j W. W. Calkins, of Kugene, presi- 'dent of the I'nited States Hank of Commr-rre, spoke of the railroad and the public, and I.. K.

A. lliusliaw. general freight agent of the Southern Pacific Company, spoke for their comtmnv, J. W. Hennett. of Marshffeld, made the address for the visitors from Coos Hay. The entrance of the building was arranged to resemble the rear of a pasenger train. The entire club room was decorated with semaphores and si nnl lights. Conductor Kronk, of the Wendling liullet, took the tickets, which resembled those of the railroad company. W hen one semaphore was thrown, tin ihe oihcr side ot the room a sign was displayed, reading "Kugene" and revealing a small reproduction of the Kugene depot. A report upon the Willamette- Pa cific construction work ay Knglneer II. P. Iloey, who had charge of the work which was under the direction of William Hood, chief engineer of the Southern Pacilic, was read. He said th.it the total coxt of the road when completed will be $ 1 1, not), 000. There are on the line nine tun nels, fne and one-half miles of per manent trestles and :tH steel bridges. The Cook Hay bridge Is one of the longest In the Northwest, being near- a mile, including trestle approach, in length. Htaw span In the Coos Hay, Sins law and finpqua bridges will admit tne large-t octan going vessels. Approximately UO.iMHi.lHMt feet of Oregon Mr lumb"i, all purchased In l.ane County, was used in the ron struition of bridges, buildings, trestles, and for tics.
