The Industrial track as orlalnaily planned in front of the station site, tn ther with the warehouse, will be com pleted within 10 days. The road then will be well equlrP'd for the accommo dation of ail kinds of frelaht trathv. A heavy movement of train is expected as n as warehouse accommodation are presented. Farmers there have stored tftnusanda of bushels which they will sri'.p to market as fast aa the Orrson Trunk trains ran carry it. Several Portland oil concerns are pre paring to enter the Central Uifon tir'.d and are erectin tanks and warehouses Pear Madras from which they purpose t distribute their products. One con cern has Its buildings half completed and has Ave car loads of oil and other supplies on the way. Several other com panies are preparing to enter the field. The lumber for the unloading platform at Madras Is on the way and as soon as It arrives the construction of the plat form will commence. Several car loads of sugar, salt, flour and other commo dities have been ihlppcd. To stock pens have been built at Ma'iras. each to bold about six car lo.ids of cattle. The capacity of these will be Increased to 1 or tl car loads at once. Hotel Being Ilullt. A temporary car depot and train shed lias been built at Mctolius and sleeping tents have been provided for the rail road employes. A company Is now build in a first class hotel for the accommo dations at Metollus. Excavation has b-en completed. The structure will be finished early In tha Summer. It is pre dicted. Work on the yards and side trarks at Metollus. which Is to be the division point of the road. Is progressing rapld lv. and when thla Is completed other Improvements and track extensions wlil proceed. The lumber tor the freight de pots at both Madras and Metollus has been ordered and after It arrives un loading merchandise will be made a matter of less difficulty and greater speed. Redmond and Bnd merchants are ordering their freight almost entirely through Metollus. bavins; virtually aban doned the service via Shanlko. Ther are cautious in the stio of their orders, how ever, as the early arrival of the railroad at those points will enable them to take advantage of the railroad rates to ship Ir, heavy lots to replenish the stocks that they purposely have allowed to be come almost depleted. Tbere Is a heavy demand for service as fr south as Opal City, but until the eorjtructlon work reaches that point the railroad officials are unable to promise accommodations. However, it Is expected list traffic facilities will be extended to Opal City as soon as the track Is laid. B-caue the waiton and automobile roads are In poor condition this yarth e-rvk-e ef the new railroad has been ma.le of more tHan ordinary value to the farmer and merchants of Central Or gn.

The route from Moncton to Prince Rupert Is virtually a sxralg-ht line. Tn aorr.e places the tangents are lio mllea lonjr. There la one of 160 miles. Numerous stretches of airalght track vary froa to 150 roll. The curvature la so allrfct that trains can be operated at full ipeej. The heaviest grade la 21 feet to tho mile, giving tnia roaa xne ngnieei grade on the continent. The greatest elevation Is J?no feet, where the line goes through Yetlowbead Paaa. at the aumrr.K of the Rockies.

Another division baa been opened from Prince Rupert to a point loo miles east. Work on the east ern end of this line wHI connect with the middle section of the Rockies. Tho east ern end also la moving westward at a reasonable rate of aneed. It la calcu lated to have the entire line completed and In operation in less than two 'ears. Officials intend to build SO miles of addi tional trackage n the West within the present year. This will bring it near the Rocky Mountains and leave only a small rap between it and the line from Lake Superior. Numerous branchea wlil extend from the new road southward toward the bor der of ths Vetted States. Three, branches aireadv have been built northward and two mors are projected. Steamship to Be Operated. t .u n the rail line the Grand Trunk Pacific also will operate a steam ship service between Prince Rupert and other Coast points.

GUARD PLACED Oil RATS LINER RYGJA, FROM ORIENT. WILL BE WATCHED. Though Vessel Has Been Twice Dis infected, Harbormaster Does Not Omit Precautions. If rats get ashore here from the Ori ental liner Rygja. it will not be duo to the fact that Harbormaster Speier is unaware of the chance that plague Infested rodents might play havoc with health conditions, for ho yesterday sta tioned a member of his force on Co lumbia Dock No. 1 with instructions to watch the steamer and insist that rat guards be replaced on the lines when she moved elsewhere. The pre caution was taken even though the Rygja waa disinfected before sailing from Hongkong; and on her arrival at San Francisco. Officers of the steamer say they heard I'ttle at tho Chinese port con cerning the plague situation and noth ing was reported at that time concern ing the famine. Like officers of the liner Hercules, they are of the opinion that the acarclty of food did not reach an acute stage until after their de parture for Japanese harbors. The Rygja brought one of the smallest car goes ever discharged here by a regu lar liner, beinar less than 600 tons, while at San Francisco she unloaded 3500 tons. That brought to Portland was principally Chinese merchandise for the local Chinese colony. Federal authorities at San Francisco, who adopted stringent measures In fight ing a bubonic epidemic there three years ago. have communicated with Dr. C. H. Wheeler, Portlanj City Health Officer, regarding the outbreak of plague in China and have asked his co-operation because Oriental liners operate from Portland and most of the vessels of the Portland Sc. Asiatic fleet touch at San Francisco on their return. Dr. Wheeler, while keeping In touch with the situation and having regular reports from Harbormaster Speier. has deemed It best to wage a stronger wax on rats brought by vessels and arrange-, ments have been made through which Harbormaster Speier will have men on continuous duty while vessels arriving from the Far East are In the harbor. It is Insisted that rat guards be placed on all hawsers as soon as the steamers berth at docks and they must be replaced after every move. Gangways -will be hoisted from the deck and dock at night, so that rodents will have no easy time gaining shore, and nets beneath gang ways will be hung so as to protect per sons falling, but will not be fastened so that rats can make use of them.

CLUB SPEEDS VOYAGER Newspaper Men Out In Force When Jack Barrett Goes Sootb. Yesterday's departure of the steamer Rose City was made memorable to members of the Portland Press Club for two reasons, because of their tare well to Jack Barrett, until recently night police reporter of The Oreg-on-laS. who is seeking health in Califor nia and the attitude of Captain Ed Mason, master of the vessel, which has endeared him to the newspaper fra ternity forever. The press contingent managed to precede Barrett to his stateroom and It was placarded In such fashion that all who passed the door read almost his entire pedigree. Then there was mus tered on deck the Little German Band and while Sousa's followers m'ght have played "Auld Lang Syne with more precise interpretation, it could not have been more inspiring than when accompanied by the cheers of the press party. When the crowd went ashore an Impromptu vaudeville show took place, assisted by the band, each member of whom wore a green ribb n to harmonise with the ornaments of others, who adopted the decoration as a reminder of Barrett's Celtic ante-, cedents. Good-bye, Jack; be good to your self," sang the funsters In chorus as the steamer stood into the stream and from the north end of Alnsworth dock an Immense rocket was sent skyward, while Captain Mason, on the bridge, ordered a series of whistle salutes that awoke echoes in the harbor. Every officer of the steamer evinced the same consideration for the voyager, while Stewardess Brown promised to bring forth all her remedies to ward off sea sickness. Young Hunter Slay Lose Leg.
