SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 13. Contracts have been let by the Western Pacific railway for the grading of 100 miles of their proposed line through Nevada. : The present contract runs from Deeth, in Humboldt valley; to the Nevada and Utah State line. It is difficult country to traverse. Mountain ranges obstruct passage; in every direction.' In order to find a practicable grade, engineers have chosen a route that is not direct, but when ; completed will do away with the double engine service: that would otherwise be necessary, -j In Utah the line has already bee constructed about seventy miles outside of Salt Lake. |
