Seattle Man Gets Contract ami
Outfits Are Already at Points
Along Right of Way to Begin
1 Active Work as Soon as Men
re Secured.
Announcement made today that con-
tracts hava been let for construction of
the Chicago, Milwaukee St. Paul rail
road, from the Bitter Root mountains
to the Columbia river disposes of the
reports from New York- to the effect
that the - Harrlman railroad companies
had acquired oontxol of the Milwaukee.
It la believed these ooatraota would not
hava been let if the Union , Pacific
eould hava prevented It.
H. Henry of Seattle baa bean awarded
the work. The engineers who have for
a year been hard at work to secure the
best route for tha Milwaukee through
the Bitter Root range have at last com'
plated their task, and a permanent lo
cation of tha line hga been made. The
route follows the St. Joe river from the
Idaho-Montana line to a point below
Bt. Joe. -Idaho, then to Tekoavand Rosa
lia . and along . tha south, aide of Rock
lake, ' reaching Lind 1 oa tha Northern
Pacific . .
JTroxB Un4 tha Una folows tha survey
of .tha old Northern Paclflo aut-off to
Ellensburg. - Beyond that point no
permanent location has yet been made
Surveys are under way through tha
Cowllts pass and through Clspus pass,
of tha Cascade range, for a line Into
tha lower Columbia river basin, and
also ' bjr Snoqualmle paaa . to Taooma
and Seattle. It is believed the Portland
Una . will coma through Cowllts pass
and south to Portland via Vancouver.
Another and mora immediate method of
getting Into Portland would ba for the
Milwaukee to run from Tekoa Into thla
olty over the CX R. N. line, with which
it la aaid trackage arrangements could
ba made, ., -
B. N. Jones, a Spokane railroad con
tractor, whoae firm haa secured a part
of the work, aaid:
"we already hava our outfit at, Ros
alia and will start work at once. Wo
will need 1.000 men Immediately and the
work will last many months. It is esti
mated that tha work can be completed a
year from next January. Our part .of
the contract extends from Tskoa to
Und." '
The route adopted will be much the
shortest line across the state of Wash
ington. Distance, easy curvature and
low grades hava been the paramount
considerations with the Milwaukee's
surveyors. They adopted the route re
luctant for tha reason that it left : Spo
kane off of the main Una.
