Illinois Central to Extend its Line.
Onawa, la, Feb. 20.
People who claim to be posted from high authority say the Illinois Central will extend its line from Onawa to a Junction with the Fort Dodge & Omaha railway at, or near Loveland, la. The distance is forty miles and all the way the road will run parallel to the Sioux City & Pacific.

Onawa, Sentinel.—An Illinois Central railroad surveying party is reported to be at work along the Sioux river in Kennebec township, and it is said there are grade stakes twelve miles this side of Loveland. That the Central intends to connect this branch with the new line built last summer there is no doubt, but it seems hardly possible that they will make the connection at Kennebec Siding. The Sentinel still believes the line will be run from Onawa to Loveland and if so it means a great deal for the town as this would be the proper place for the division of the road. It is thought that in a month or so it will be known just what the plans are.
