RAILROAD WORK
SOUTH OF town
IS PROGRESSING
Extension of Railroad on the New
D Line Goes Ahead Uninter
ruptedly Now.
The end of steel on the new D
line has reached up to station 19177
yesterday morning:, a distar »e of 10,
300 feet from the point of beginning,
and the work is being continued as
|
rapidly as conditions will permit.
The Brown hoist is at the front
and is of the greatest assistance to
the steel gang. She has three cars
in tow all the time loaded with rails,
ties and logs and her boom easily
reaches back for such material as
i is needed at the front.
At the rapid rate of progress
1 made with the steel it is expected
that the north bank of Julius creek
will soon be rached. Piledriver No.
5, also known as the track driver,
built last winter at the Commission
yards and mounted on a flat car,
; will be sent out to drive the neces
sary piling for the bridge across
; this stream.
I There are two shifts of the track
laying crews, but at the present
time there is only one shift of the
i surfacing and ballasting crew. As
soon as a sufficient number of camp
cars have been built to accommo
I date the men, a night crew will be
| put on and the surfacing and ballast
i ing will be done night and day.
Thomas H. Bush, who has the
j contract for the building of the
camp cars, is rushing the work, and
according to Superintendent of Con
struction W. L. Packer, he will have
j sufficient cars to house the extra
; shift of the surfacing gang ready
, in a day or two.
On an average about forty cars
i of gravel are used daily by the
ballasting and surfacing crew, but,
| owing to the soft and marshy nature
, of the ground where the rails are
: being laid, the flat cars are not be
ing loaded to their full capacity.
About eight hundred cubic yards of
gravel is used daily.
The night crew of the Bucyrus
dragline excavator do all the strip
ping work and the day crew exca
vate and load the cars for the use
of the ballasting gang. It is ex
I pected that with the putting on of a
.night crew ballasting, the dragline
will be kept digging all the time.
Sufficient ground will have been
stripped by that time to allow of
the work to continue without in
terruption.

| Three autos of the Gibson-Shel
don line got in yesterday. The first
| one arrived at 9 o’clock last night
and had the Edes party on board.
; This was followed later by two
, others with the mail.
I The case against George Starrs,
i the youthful offender, was heard
j before Commissioner Reed Heilig
j yesterday afternoon. He was bound
j over to the grand jury, his bonds
being fixed at 31500. J. A. Webb
and W. W. Pendergraft were the
bondsmen.
The Home Guards are giving a
big dance at the Armory tomorrow
night and the proceeds are to be de
voted to further the Fourth of July
celebration.
The Edes party and F. D, Browne,
engineer in charge of the Fairbanks
division, expect to leave for Nenana
on the Sunbeam today.
Marin Todoroff, one of the in
ducted men who failed to respond
to roll call and who was deemed a
deserter according to military regu
lations, turned up today, 48 hours
behind time. He states that he
was lost in the Big Chena country
and was therefore unable to answer
the roll call. He will be sent to
Fort Gibbon on the next boat, prob
ably the Yukon. Arthur Dana Hall,
the other deserter, has not been
heard of yet.
