The cost of the Pacific coast extension of th e Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul railroad, which, it is expected, will be open for traffic on July 1, 1909, will be about $5,000,000 more than the company originally estimated, it is said by an officer qf the road.. The additional cost is due to th e decision to run the road at a lower grade over the mountain divisions than was at first planned. The total cost of the project is now put at $77,000,000, but as $100,000,000 of preferred and common stock has been Issued to provide a balance for future contingencies, ther e will be no shortage of funds, notwithstanding the increased cost.
