GROUP A.

LONDON, CHATHAM, AND NORTH KENT
- -

EAXLW AY.

The Committee reassembled at twelve o'clock, by adjournment
from Friday last, and rammed the consideration of the North
Kent line.
Mr. M lIRREWSTRER, for the South.Xastern Company, submitted
that it would save trouble if the parties were to exchange drawings
and plans of the bridges and cuttings contemplated in the two
projects.
This proposition was, after some conversation, acceded to.
Mr. MERREWETIIER then proceeded with the cross.examination
of Mr.Vignolles, who stated that the extensions to Sheerness and
Blackwell were given up before the Bth of April last, because the
witness ascertained that these branches would cost more than
had been at first estimated.
On the part of Messrs. Hatblock, the tanners, Mr. Malian-
wvrumt examined the witness at some length as to the mode in
which it was his intention to provide 50 tan-lots, in lieu of 50 to
be filled up for the line. He (Mr. Vioolles) stated that he had
arranged for ►he construction of the new pits upon the site of the
present tannery.
Mr. MEIIREWILTHILIi said that he was Instructed to say that no
such arrangement had beets made.
Mr. Vignolles was further cross.examined by Mr. Wasfonst on
behalf of the London and Croydon Railway—Was acquainted
with the atmospheric principle, and was the first engineer who
brought it into operation. He had no doubt that the London and
Croydon Company could work their line upon the at-
mospheric principle, with the gradient of 1 in 50, which they had
adopted. The atmospheric railway can be worked at times and
under circumstances were a locomotive could not go. The cost of a
locomotive was not so high as a shilling. In some places in was
only ficl., and he calculated that by his arrangament he could run
the engines at an average of Bd. He was not aware that any of
the southern railways paid more than Is. On the Sheffield and
Manchestar line the cost was but 6%d. It was probable that he
had stated in a former examination that the atmospheric principle
could be worked at half the expense of a locomotive. In that es-
timate he calculated the locomotive cost at 10d. a mile, and the
atmospheric at 4d. or 41d.
