I Vnotlier liailmail Maybe that long talked of Beech Creek extension will W..me a reality in the near future The following i from the Pittsburg Times of Monday. The long proposed entrance of the Buffalo, Hochesier and Pitl-imrg rail road into Pittsburg is abont to lie cor. sum mated Surreys have already foe-en made for the extens-'>n of its Hue rrom Punxsutawney to Butl r and from Bnt ler to S. w Castle, and rights of way are now being taken np at different jioint- by a corps of railroad employe- Connections will 1 ma le at Butler j with the Pittsburg, Tie -iuier and Lake Krie raiiroa 1 and a rraftv- arrangement will be ent.-ned into with the latter j road. J. Pierpont Morgan is said to' lv behind the tO€6cnre ;; new trunk line task ■■> _ • President Arthur fates, of the Buffalo. Rochester and Pittsburg rail ' road, was in Pittsburg short time ago and made a careful in-jiection of the Bessemer road, it's facilities at Butler and its terminal system at Bessemer He was well pleased with the condition of the Carnegie road, and the new ex tension was taken np at on e. Presi dent Yates went so far as to place the ! route of the road's extension to New , Castle on a specially prepared map in ; his annual report just issued. A large party of the Holiest r officials came to • Pittsburg Saturday in their private car and the day was spent looking about I the Bessemer system. The officials left j for the Kast on the Pennsylvania fast ! Use Saturday evening. The terminal of the Buffalo, Rochester . and Pittsburg is now at Punxstitawney. ' and a line ha - been surveyed from the i end of the road in Jefferson county j down Mahoning creek totfie Armstrong : county line, across the Cowanshannock. down that stream to Kittanning and from that town southwest to Butler. There the Bessemer tracks will be cross ed and the line continued to New Cas tle. where the Ohio Midland road, now being constructed by ex Senator Calvin S. Brice. will be met. This will permit connection with Mr. Price's elaborate system of railroads in < >hi'o. Considerable secrecy has l>een main tained by the right of way men. and. although they have been working for som * weeks at Butler and Kittanning. few outside of those interested in the scheme have learned of their move ments. They have already secured al most all the land needed for the exten sion. and it is expected the active work of constructing the line will begin 1 c-nvly ii. Xt spriiig. It is claimed that arrangements for terminals have al ready been made but it improbable that after reaching Bessemer <nd Duquesne the proposed West Side belt line from Duquesne around the -outh side hills will lie used to bring the road into the West end or Pittsburg proper. President Yates has announced to friends that he will build a line to Bnt ler at once, as he is anxious to secure a share of the enormous tonnage expect ed on the Bessemer road. He is also de sirous of securing a lake jiort farther west than Buffalo, and the Conneant do.-ks will give him N ecial advantages in this respect. He expects to haul ore from Conneant harbor and also do a large coal business by Boasr,n >f the ex tension and connection. The Bessemer lint- north of Butler ha- much lower grades than the Rochester line north, and this is al *> an advantage desired. WHAT BUTLER COUNTY PEOPLE SAY WHO ARE USING HOME COM FORT RANGES.
