Co. Of California : Sir : In compliance with your request, I have made an exam- ination and inspection of the Central Pacific Railroad of Cali- fornia, commencing at the city of Sacramento, thence to Clipper Gap, which includes that portion of the Eoad now in successful operation, and from Clipper Gap to lUinoistown, which includes the portion in course of construction. I have also carefully examined the line as located from lUinoistown [since called Colfax] to the mining town of Dutch Flat. Fr...om Dutch Flat, the end of the finally located portion of the line, 1 have traversed and fully examined the route as recently surveyed by your Company via. The Donner Pass, over the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the Truckee River, on the Eastern slope of the Sierras, thence through the canon to Crystal Peak, a distance of about thirty-six miles from the summit at the Donner Pass. That portion of the Railroad constructed and in operation from the city of Sacramento to Clipper Gap, a distance of 48 miles, and which attains an elevation of 1, 785 feet above the sea, will compare most favorably in every respect with any rail- road in the United States.
