Work on Railway Expansion Begun

Christainsburg, Va., June 2 -- Work was begun yesterday morning on the extension of the Virginia anthracite line of railway from their mines four miles from here, to Blacksburg, and the work will be rapidly pushed to completion, thus making an all rail line between here and Blacksburg, which has long been hoped for and is now about to be realized.
