Silks Made Waterproof Director of Maintenance Talks About Prospective Developments. Construction of a new railroad from Redmond, the terminus of the Des chutes line, to Odell, on the Klamath- i Natron cutoff, has been authorized by the I Southern Pacific - directors; the line from Grants Pass to a point on the .northern coast of-California, pro bably Crescent City, may be built, and the Coos Bay line Is being considered ware announcements made last night by Julius Kruttschnitt, director of operation and maintenance of the Un ion Pacific and Southern Pacific sys tems, after a day of inspection of the' property in andabout Portland, says the Oregonian. ' , -i; ; ; ' v llowever no definite time for be ginning work on the Redmond-Odell road has been determined. In the meantime the company, will endeavor to complete as early as possible all the projects already undertaken! Aft of. the present contracts on. the Klamath- 1118 Adami AveTel.

'The directors of the company have authorized the road from Redmond to Odell,'r said Mr. Kruttschnitt, "but it" Is impossible to determine the time when work will commence. The road will ulUmately be built; that is cer tain. It will open a rich country there at present has nb railroad facilities. , "We have started surveys on the line from Grants Pass to the sea, for which purpose we have Incorporated a com pany. This Incorporation does not mean that we are to start operations at once, as It is necessary to take such action in order to have the (surveys made. Whether or not the line will be built and how soon It win be built depends entirely upon the reports of the engineers. . '"No decision has been reached with reference to the Coos Bay project That road has been suggested and may eventually be built, but our board of directors has hot yet autholried It." 'Divorce" Jfot Necessary. "I think it will not be necessary for I the Oregon-Washington Railway & from the Southern Pacific, the probab ility of which has been frequenUy dis cussed in the past few weeks," he con tinued. VThe present arrangement by which the same heads of departments have Jurisdiction over the two roads In Oregon comes within the law and can continue unless we choose to separ ate them for economic reasons, and I see no necessity for that." ; :, Mr. Kruttschnitt expressed, the, posi tive belief that the wage ' difficulty with the Brotherhood lot Locomotive Engineers would be settled without a strike "V - ' " ; "AH I can; say," he . declared,v "is that the engineers "Compose one of the most Intelligent and,. conscientious bodies' of men with whom wa have to deal. They have able men - directing their, affairs. The railroads have the same kind men representing them. I am sure that ; these committees can find, some convenient solution 'of the difficulty," - . ': ' ( , V Mr. Kruttschnitt; accompanied by his secretary, left last night tor Se attle, where he will confer with local officials.,'';" ' , Possibilities Are Remote. . With, reference to the proposed East and Wst lines from Ontario, near the Idaho state line, to a connection with the Klamath-Nfatron line, Mr. Krutts schnltt declared that the possibilities for early construction were somewhat remote. He expressed the opinion that such a road eventually will be built, however.'. . .'' , .V,:. In the work through the Deschutes canyon, he said, Joint trackage agree ments had been entered into with the Oregon Trunk Railway over some of the most difficult portions. The Harrl man line has progressed ahead of that of the Hill system in some", places, and the former line likely wttll be complet ed over the 137-mile stretch from the Columbia river to Redmond be fore the latter is finished to Bend. p , rr if V i.
