'flow's your boom?" was asked. "I have no boom and Salt Lako has no boom,.'" was the quick answer. "But Salt Lako has a steady and justifiable growth. Prices of property arc ad-vancing because a development is be-ing made." Yes, that's what we said in '67. Hut that's all right." Turning to the railroad question Mr. Jlixon said he was personally ac-quainted with Mr. Tiernaii, "and in Salt Lake we do uot have the least doubt about Ticrnan's road being built. We look upon it as among the absolute eeituinios, and we are as anxious to get a lino down hero to Southern California as you can be to have the road built up there.

The banks credit him, ami be- - sides maintaining his surveying forces, ho has imw about :J00 men at work at construction. His intention is to build into Salt Lake, but the construction work has begun about eighty miles south. "Hut who is backing Ticruau?" was asked. "He don't tell us that, but wc know that Rock Island people have declared their intention of building to the coast, and they consult with him a goo. I deal."

A Eailroad Heading for Salt Laka at the Kate of Eighteen Miles a Day, IT IS THE PAOIEIO SHORT LINE. The Trials aad Tribulations tha Young Oiant Had to Meet are All Over. James Dooge, Jr.. of Sioux City, la., fas a guest at the Walker house yesterday. His father Is tho heaviest individual packer of pork In. tho coun-try, and it takes a small army of men to conduct tho institution which brings hundreds of thousands of dollars an-nually to the growing town on the banks of the Hig Muddy. Mr. Rooge, Sr., is also an extensive owner of Sioux City real estate, is public spirited, lib-eral and always to the front with his money ami vigor In encouraging every enterprise calculated to help the city of his choice. Ho Is largely interested in railroads, and has a large block of stock In the I'aeiliu Short Line. Hesides he contributes considerable of his personal time in looking after and lostcring the ad-vancement of tho road which eventu-ally will have Salt Lako city for its terminus. When Mr. Hooge. jr., who has full cbargo of all his fat tier's real estate business and rail road investments, was asked by a Timks representative what the outlook was for the early comple-tion of tho l'acilic Short Line to this city, ho answered that it was in-deed encouraging, lie also expressed himself as being well pleased with the, awakening of interest in the enterprise by Salt Lake city capitalists, and said that ho would gladly carry the news buck to Sionv mill cliccr the hearts of the gentlemen who have met with tribulations and annoyances from vari-ous sources that Salt Lake City might be given an outlet to tho seaboard and enjoy railroad advantages in proportion to its coming greatness. 'The history of the l'acilic Short line," continued Mr. Booge, "has been one of tips and downs, and were it not for the (act that tho promoters of It were men who know no such word as fail, it would have been given up long ago and the rails would not be being put down, as they are now in tho direc-tion of Salt Lako City, at the speed of eighteen miles a week. When the road was first projected, tho Union Pacific and its allies put in . tho obstruction wedge wherever they got a chance and in the strength of its mightiness put stumbling blocks in tho way of tho road which took time, money and patience to over-ride. Owing to interferences from the formidable corporation surveys had to bo changed from time to time, and towns that the road would prove ad-vantageous to voted against bonds for tho purpose. Finally these annoyances were flvereonieaiid arrangements were perfected to sanction the grading made to O'Neil, 87 miles distant from Sioux City. Capitalists from the latter place about this time interested men from the money centers of the east in the road, and tliey agreed to do the fair thing in furnishing mouey towards tho expense of construction, But at a critical point those particular men of money wero trilled with by the enemies of the road, and t hey went dead baek on their words. In the meantime thousands of tous of steel rails, cords of ties, locomotive, ami other urgent ap-pliances had been contracted lor, and the manufacturers sat up a howl for their pay. .The greater part of tho ma-terial luid baen shipped on to Sioux City, and experienced railroad builders and contractors had come on in antici-pation of going to work. They, too, wero indignant over the delay in opera-tions, through tho failure of eastern capitalists to keep their promise, and as the Sioux City stockholders and the Boston Investment company had done the most of the "putting up," they called for a chango in the situation of affairs. Tho Northwestern railroad was now combining with tho Union l'acilic in tho underhanded dealing, and A. S. (iarrctson, president of the Siouv national bank ami principal stockholder in the Boston Investment company, and also one of the prime movers in tho new road, went to New York where he had a consultation with the Manhattan Investment company. This meeting resulted in the Manhattan people promising to make good at a stipulated timo a large sum of money to bo advanced by tho Boston Invest-ment company to begin the work of construction. This proposition was ac-cepted by the Boston concern through Mr. (jarrctson, 'and was set underway. A debt of over $300,000 had been in-curred in laying eighteen miles of track when tho Manhattan Investment com-pany telegraphed Mr. tiarretson that through the duplicity of men they had dealt with it would bo impossible for them to reimburse tho Bos-ton Investment company, which put a stop to further oper- - iliotiu 1,1, ul tli!it,T llin 1,i.i1 i already oh tho ground . This last move made matters very gloomv, and Mr. Garrelson hurried'to New York, where a combination of railroads was formed and a big lump of capital subscribed that dispelled tho attachment proceed-ings ami work was resumed." "What railroads are interested in tho l'acilic Short Line!1" tho reporter asked of Mr. Hooge. "That is a matter of tho utmost conf-idence," ho replied, adding, "but Tiik Timks can stale that many of the prin-cipal trunk lines cast of the Missouri river and east from Chicago to the sea-board are in the movement. With tho excellent railroad connections Sioux City affords, the products of the uorth, south, east and west can be shipped into Utah with greater dispatch aim cheaper than she is now get-ting them. The Pacitio' Short Line will open up a new country to Salt Lake City, and will operate to it in an inestimable extent. W ork will soon be commenced on the bridge to bo built by the road across the Missouri from the Nebraska banks tu the Iowa banks at fionx City, and over this structure the Pacific Short Line will connect with the other roads favorable and friendly to it." a wsmm Fit The Most. Disastrous; That Has Visited Salt Lake City for a Number - of Years. VALUABLE PEOPEETY IN ASHES Losses and Insurance So Par as Can Be Ascertained Until the Safes Cool. It is a long time since Salt' Lake has been, visited by so disastrous' a burn-ing as that which occurred . yester-day afternoon. The lino furniture warehouse of II. Dinwoody, on First South street, has been rubbed out of ex-istence, and nearly $200,000 has van-ished in llame and smoke, leaving only ashes to tell tho tale. It was about 1 o'clock when the lire was discovei ed, and at that lime it had gained such headway as to leave no room to doubt that the destroying ele-ment had been at work perhaps for hours. An alarm was quickly turned on anil in a very few minutes tho department ' was on the ground. It was then discovered that the flames had gained complete mastery in the rear portion of the build-ing, whero it was apparent the lire had originated, and owing to the large amount of inflammable material stored there, it was at once understood that all hopes of saving the building must be abandoned. ' The firemen then directed their at-tention to contiuiug tho flames to the Dinwoody building, and in this their efforts were successful. Numerous streams were kept playing' on the doomed structure all the afternoon, and save damage by water neither of the fist on the latter. The troub aio.se from the interference, so Mi. Sun ton claims, of Mr, Jennings chief's work, and from unfavoiabe comment as to the methods pursued by U Thehrewere a number of incidents of more or less interest during the pio-gres- s of the fire, but nothing of nnpo tanco occurred. One or two arrests interference with c were made for department, and it required watch and vigilance on the pait of the police to keep back the surging crowd, ,ut all in all very good order was main- - Ma'nager Holmes of the Continental repeatedly sentlargc camp kettles of hot strongeo'ffeetolho workers, who cv .ressed their gratitude for the grateful ''iu's'd that Dinwoody's safo con-tained 2.000 in money. , Ten minutes after the alarm Supei in-tended Ryan had the water shut oft east of the Eagle gate and thereafter the pressure was equal to MO pounds on each stream deliv ered on the lire. The Pacific Express company will try to get together today the numerous packages of goods they transferred to places of safety. Until this is done de-livery will be slow. Nearly 8000 feet of hose was used at Dmwoody's building was 60x120 feet in size and throe stories high, and when the tire was at its height the in-terior was one mass of flame. I he ter-rible heat was intolerable , The street railway service was inter-rupted for a short time all over the city, as it was found noeessary to stop the electric generators until tho several wires near the firo could be cut out. Many railroad employees became vol-unteer firemen and performed good service. Dinwoody's factory in the rear of the First South street warehouse was sev-eral times on fire, but escaped serious damage. ' Much favorable comment was made upon the work of tho liremen, who labored like beavers. Ogdnn was telegraphed for assistance and that city's department promptly responded, but before a start by train was made the request was counter-manded. The tottering walls of the burned adjoining buildings building are being demolished today. sutlereu. Some barrels of oil belonging to Sears & Liddlo which were piled up in the rear of ..the furniture warehouse were removed as soon as possible, and thus a source of great danger was placed where it could do no harm. At one time it was feared that the flames would spread in a south-easterly direction, but the department and some volunteers through their ex-ertions prevented this. A few sparks, however, were carried over tho roofs of the immediate buildings and lodged where a large quantity of 'liquor was stored, and hero an incipient blaze was soon fanned into liveliness. A watering hose was freely used, and the lire here quickly subdued. (; Some queer scenes occurred in the vicinity of the fire!' 'People residing there became alarmed and attempted to remove their belongings, but the panic, was soon over and more delib-erate work ensued. The gentlemen's furnishing goods store of Thomas W. Jennings, the oflico of the Pacific Kx-press company and the Calder Music emporium wero all more or less threat-ened, but Chief Stanton, seeing that nothing could be done to save the burn-ing building, directed, iho entire ener-gies of the ileparlmeutj toward saving adjacent property and confining the tire to the one structure This he suc-ceeded in doing and it was all that could be done. The police department was most ef-ficient in its service. Chief Youmr was early on the scene and at once established lines, by stretching ropes, to keep out the crowds which had boon drawn to tho vicinity of the tire.' Some remarks have been made about 'tho wisdom of such a course, many claiming that the salvage of property would have been greater had the spectators been per-mitted to exert themselves in that di-rection. This is a mistake, ns all ex-perience has demonstrated the fact that tho indiscriminate work' of an irrespon-sible body of men at a tire usually re-sults in less effective work than when organized labor by trained men is em-ployed. Tho lack of discipline is an evil not to be overcome at such a time, and the action of Chief Young, performed as it was under the eyes of the mayor, was perfectly in ac-cord with the practice in all cities under similar circumstances. All the afternoon and late into the night streams of water were kept play-ing on the red-ho- t bricks and tfie charred masses of timber, and thus was performed all the work it was possible to do. The tiro was confined to the building where it originated, and even in New York, whero the department is the most efficient on the continent, nothing more would havo been at-tempted. When all danger from a spread of Iho flames was over, it became in order to sum up the losses and the insurances. It w;u approaching 0 o'clock when Mayor Scott, with a battered and drenched silk hat and a decidedly moist coat, appeared at the Continental for dinner. Asked as to the service per-formed by the two departments on which the city most relies for protection from tire, the mayor was of opinion that everything had been done that could be done, .Mid that it was a fortunate thing no more serious damago had resulted. Had tho tire occurred in the night the destruction to prop-erty must have proved enormous, and it would have been difficult to have stayed tho ravages until the greater portion of the most valuable business Mock in tho city had been destroyed. It is not an easy matter to arrive at anything like an exact estimate of the losses and insurances, but approxi-mately they are as follows: Din-woody's stock and building, $1.50,000; insurance, $70,000, distributed among tho companies represented by Grant Co., Hugh Anderson andW. E. Smed-ley- . Until tho ruins have sufficiently cooled to admit of opening the safe and getting out the papers ana policies, it will not be possible to form a more definite estimate. The sufferers who had no insurance are Carroll & Kern, architects, $1500; Scars & Uddlc. paints, oils. etc.. $100; John Hale. $50; Mrs. Emma ( li nlon, $700; Mrs. H. Christie, $5000, and Airs. Nchultz $000. Mr. Dinwocdy, llie senior member of the firm, was not at home, he having left for Chicago a few days ago. where ho is expected to arrive this evening. A telegram was scut to intercept him, however, and he may now be on his way homeward. It is said that the junior member, who was present at the fire, telegraphed last night ordering an entire new stock of goods. The loss of Mesn-s-. Carroll A Kerns, the architects, is atmost irreparable just at this lime. It is. made up of plaus. drawings and estimates, of new work iu the building line, and will be severely felt, besides retarding work whic'i would have soon been under wav.

Superliilemlent Cramer Hays It la Only a Railroad Content The war between tho Midland and the Santa Fe, which involves tho Rio Grande and the W'ells-Farg- Express companies, is in statu quo. The Mid-land train from the West arrived at t V.I,., .win V,,i-i,-u vijl,,i-il-i- r n fl i.rnrifin. says the Denver Republican of Sunday, with the Rio Grande express messenger in charge. Tho train was delivered to tho Santa Fe road. The Wells-Farg- agent demanded possession of the express matter, and was refused. He then demanded of the mail, and was refused. Then the Santa Fo train master or-dered tho Santa Fe conductor to cut out the express and mail car. This was done, the car being sidetracked. Then the Santa Fe people brought the train on to Denver. Tho Midland people attached a Midland engine to the side-tracked car, whirled it over to the Rio (irande to put it into Denver. The Rio (irando diet, and had tho car here e the train arrived. Out of Denver yesterday morning the Rio (irande took tho Midland express and mail car and carried it to Colorado Springs in one hour and lifty-fiv- c min-utes. "I think il will be settled by Mon-day." said Superintendent Cramer of the Rio Grande Kxpress company, yes-terday. "The contest is not between the express companies. Tho W'ells-Farg- o company claim that they have entire and exclusive rights over the Santa Fe tracks. The Midland com-pany has made a contract with the Rio (irande Express company and believes that its right to do so is gcod." SALT LAKE HOLDS HER OWN. She Keeps JUp .
