road. It Is said that work on the
two extensions will begin early in
the spring. In connection With
this announcement it is said that
the Burlington will not continue its
Big Horn BaBin line beyond Cody.
So many statements . have been
made of the intention of the Bur
lington to build to Salt Lake and
from Lyons on, that people have
begun to consider it a "wolf" cry.
However, the surveyors have cotm
pleted their work, and it is ex
pected the official announcement
of the extensions will be made thix
week. According to the best infor
mation, the Guernsey line will run
south by west, and it is said will
cross the Union Pacific at Laramie.
Thence it cutB into northwestern
Colorado and goes west to , Salt
Lake."
