the story is that the Boston and Albany road,

cents In the fourth class below the pool sched-

that the cutting has worked both East and
West. the first complaints having been that
some Of the tributary Western lines were work

deny that there has been underwriting. but they
say that II has hcen confined entirely to con
trbutory lines. II is asserted however that

the difficulty would be settled on Monday. but

is favorable to the enterprise and all possible

there Is no delay for lack OF money. The work
