Red Lodge surveys electric road to Bear Creek
A civil engineer Russell Kimball completed a preliminary survey for an electric railway linking Red Lodge and Bear Creek. The 10.11 mile route would have a 4 percent grade, cost about 200000 to build and equip, with annual operating expenses around 41000 including interest. Local capitalists expect stock pressure and a committee will gather data. Bear Creek mines would gain from the line by accessing better prop supplies and faster transport, improving workers’ access and regional development.

California fruit men attack Southern Pacific case
Oral arguments were heard by the interstate commerce commission in a dispute involving the California Fruit Growers Exchange and others against the Southern Pacific Railway and the California Citrus Union. Complainants say the railroad limited car supply to fruit actually picked and warehoused, instead of allocating cars by each shipper’s season’s business, a regulation the shippers call discriminatory.
