The first railroad rumor of impor
tance in several days reached here
yesterday in the shape of a quota
tion hum The Contractor, a Kansas
City public iticn, that a Kansas Citv
turn had been awarded the cont:.id
for building 130 miles of road from
Eugene to Coos Bay. Nc further
particulars were given and there is a
disposition to question its accuracy
unless something has been secretly
pulled off in the railroad world anil a
new company is behind the project.
However, there is another story
that partly substantiates it and that
is that the Southern Pacific has
chosen the Eugene tome to build to
Coos Bay when it does construct a
line. A few weeks ago an appar
ently authentic report reached here
that the Southern Pacific' had decid
ed to retain the Drain route as
against the Eugene unite
How
ever, later reports indicate this was
erroneous. It is stated on almost
unquestioned authority that the Eu
gene route has been approved by
Chief Engineer Hood and his recom
mendations for that route have been
forwarded to the New York officials

the di
lectors for an appropriation for its
construction, but this appropriation
is not expected before the July bud ■
get is announced.
Further confirmation of the selec
tion of the Eugene route reached
here yesterday when Joe Schilling
who came from Gardiner, stated that
he had been reliably informed that
men had been sent to Drain lot the
removal of the last of the supplii:
laid in there when the road was first
started.—Coes Bay Times.
