railroad relative to the selection of this point
for the establishment Of tho projected rolling
mill, proceeded 10 Baltimore on Thursday last

lengthy interview with Mr., Garrett, president
and other gentlemen Of prominence connected
With the road in an official capacity, In whiol
the advantages Of this locality were presented
and discussed, and tho willingness Of the cit.
authorities to heartily co-operatein the matte

prospects Of the success of the mission are mos

Of this location, but little doubt exists Of th
preference, on the part Of leading officials Of tn
company for Cumberland over other point
named in connection with the enterprise. Th
whole subject will be laid before the board
directors Of the company, at their reyuls
monthly meeting in Baltimore to-day, whs
definite action may be expected.
