OPENING OF THE CLUTHA LINE.
We (‘ CluthaLeader ’) have|received infer* mation that it is the intention of the general manager, Mr Wm. Conyers, to visit Ciutha and the intermediate stations within the next week or so for the purpose of completing arrangements for opening the through UQ6 from Chain Hills to tho Molyneux River. The intention is to run the train from Dunedin right up to the mouth of the tunnel, and from the upper end of the tunnel through to the Molynoux River, providing for the break over the Chain Hills—which will not exceed two miles—by coach. We are in a position to say that Mr Conyers is sanguine of being able to make his arrangements so complete as to admit of passengers to and from Balclutha reaching their destinations in at most three hours. It is also contemplated to make such provision as will enable passengers for Invercargill and the southern districts to be taken on to '-he Mataura by a swift line of coaches, and thence by train, reaching Invercargill and ■olun the same day.
