| Show AT HOME AND ABROAD SAN BAN FRANCISCO oct 8 the ore posed Butte Boise city and san ban frao fran bleco railroad continues to be a lead log ing topic of conversation in local loca banking and business circles the statement made by E T wood worth of denver that san francisco wax was going to give a bonus ot of to his new road was read with amaze ment meat in this city nobody as for far as can be ascertained has baa board beard of any movement to raise such a bonus in this city wood rash remark about ra bonus following as it does on the heels of moritz Lipp lippmann mans statement that the now new road had already made arrangements for terminal facilities in san francisco Franc laco and oakland has caused a number of prominent people to view the enterprise with distrust and yet they do not wish to do or way say anything that may hamper these men it if they are sincere in their efforts t build a road from butte to san ban francisco too general opinion is that it is best to give lippman and his hie associates plenty of time to show their bande if then it is shown that the enterprise can be carried to a sue suc issue the men who are backing the enterprise will be assured or of the hearty support of san Fr francisco incisco C P huntington said raid when asked what he be thought of the he scheme what do I 1 think of the butte boise city and san francisco railroad scheme ho betat well I 1 have just the same opinion about li it as I 1 would have about the construction of a road to the moon material is very cheap i ow and yet it ii would cost to build such a line capital Is very sensitive and it would want to know what sort of an nv oveat estment ment such a road would offer there la Is no business to amount to anything between here and butte my credit is good in now new york as that of tho the book bank of england and yet I 1 could not borrow there to put pui into bob such a road I 1 have been borrowing and handling money in now new york for fifty elgba years and I 1 know what I 1 am talking about capital wants returns on its investments and a butte ban francisco road could never answer that requirement why for the greater part of the road there is no more inore business than on the central pacific between reno beno aud and corinne the latter stretch or of road might as aa well be built to in the air as far as an local business to is concerned I 1 do not tear fear contradiction when I 1 say that lippman and his associates would nave have to raise faille to build any decent road with good terminal As a matter of fact there are too many roads in the west for the volume of business I 1 will make the statement that between here bore and a point coiet miles west of the missouri river I 1 will agree to handle wn ten times the present volume of business over a single track road like the central pacific with say bay a too ten per cent increase in side if the pacific has today ton ten per cent of tilde side tracks I 1 will or would increase the he side tracks to lo twenty per cent end anu handle as I 1 nave have already a stated ion en times the amount ot business which is in being done today between the points I 1 have mentioned and I 1 would do it at greatly reduced rates and make money 1 I have all along told now new york bankers I 1 could do this and it is we the truth why look at roada like the northern pacific atchison Atohi and union pacific they are all in the greatest financial distress the business done by western railroads does not give mato roy any profit worth mentioning butte and the montana country are naturally tributary to portland ore they are on a wenters down grude grade to the sea end and commerce in the long ruu follows the lines line of gravity you can not overcome gravity lor for it in too great grea a factory even in commercial life if 11 however there are people who want to build overland lines into california it is 18 none of my business bu einer I 1 if f they want to 0 o lose loee money in ebion choh ma manner tiner that la Is also alao none of my hu business siness unless they come and want my advice then I 1 would show them how floe fine it was to say aay you are building a bis big road and how bow easy it il la is to drop a big lot of 01 money these dabu I 1 am not dot trying to prevent any one building buil diug more over land roads I 1 dont care how bow many roads are built and it would nut not make any difference if I 1 uld care because some gome man may or might come coma along who bad money ond and a determination to construct an overland erland ovI line it would be
