To FORT CARROLL AND BACK.
The new steam transfer barge Can
ton, built in this city for the Balti-
more and Ohio and Philadelphia, Will
mington and Baltimore Railroads, and
to be used for transferring cars from
Locust Point to Canton, went down
the Patapsco on her trial trip yester-
day. The train which arrives at

brought from Philadelphia Messrs.
Isaac Hinckley, President II. F.
Kenny, Superintendent 8. T. Full
Ter, engineer, and J. L. Smith, super
intendent of bridges and buildings of
the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Railroad.
The monster transport moved out of
the harbor at 1905 O'Clock, with jack,
burgee, ensign and monogram flag fut-
tering in the breeze, under command of
Capt. Holder Almy. She ht aded for
Locust Point aud made the distance
from her slip at Cant in i've minutes,
President Hinckley, who had an EN-
gagement with President John W. Gar

then continued down the river, gliding
along with perfect ease. The wind was
blowing very heavily, but notwithstand-
ing this and the newness of her boilers,
machinery, etc., she ran to Fort Carroll
from Locust Point i'll forty-five minutes.
This was independent of fifteen mill
utes delay at Locust Point. On the re-
turn to Canton one of her boilers be-
came overheated and she was delayed
off Fort McHenry ten minutes, with
which exception her machinery operated
satisfactorily in every detail. She reach
ed Canton ut 2 o'clock, having made the
distance to Fort Carroll and return,
fourteen miles, in u h1urs. On the
way down the party partook of sub
stsntial lunch, and when they reached
the city it was the general verdict that
the trip had been a most pleasant and
successful one. The aprons at Locust
Point and Canton, which connect with
the barge, have now been completed,
and it only remains to finish the bump
ers on the tranfer before she begins hel

CITY COUNCIL LOOKING Ar STREET DE-

CITY.
City Council met in adjourned ses-
sion at Ninth and Washington streets,
Saturday evening to examine some
curb stone, which, on tho east side Of

Of Ninth, is several inches above the
proper grade, and will hay to be taken

the Council or the property owners
would have to pay for tho resetting Of
the curb, and consequent lowering of
the sidewalks.
Council next proceeded to Ninth and
Franklin streets, in which neighbor-
hood parties who propose building de-
sire the city to do some necessary grad
ing. The opinion was generally ex-
pressed among the members, that
when parties commence Building opera
tions of reasonable ma gnitude along

stance, ordered the grading of Harri

the work will be light and not very
expensive.
Council still con inued on the 60
and at the request Of Mr.. McMenamir
proceeded to Front and BroOme
streets. Front street, from Harrison
to Broome, is in u very dangerous con
dition, the bed being rocky and sc
high as to make quite descent to the

SUSPENSION OF THE READING IRON
CoMPAN authorizations WITH THE
COAL AND IRON COMPANY THE
CAUSE.
READING, Pa, May 23.-The
Reading Iron Company of this city
suspended last evening. This is the
largest iron works in the Schuykill
Valley, owning two furnaces, the
Scott foundry and machine shop,
steam forge, sheet mill, two pipe
mills, nail works and rolling mill
and employing in the nelghborhood
Of two thousand hands. j. P. Brock,
of Philadelphia is the president.
The original owners were Seyfert,
McManus & Co., but some years
since the title was changed to
"Reading Iron Works." The sus-
pension does not create much excite
ment, as this company was so closely
connected with the Philadelphia and
Reading Coal and Iron Company,
which suspended on Friday, that it
was expected to follow suit. 1t is
the only firm in this place that is in
any way embarrassed by the Coal
and Iron Company's failure.
CAUSE OF THE SUSPENSION.
George F. Baer, counsel for this
company and also of the Reading
Railroad Company, IN an interview
gives the following as the cause OF
the suspension THAT the Reading
Railroad Company had advanced
large amounts of cash to enable the
Reading Iron Company to transact
it's business Immediately after the
panic of 1873. For this amount notes
were given by the Reading Iron
Company, which are held by the
Reading Railroad Company, and
owing to their suspension it was
thought the notes could not be re-
newed if necessity required it, as
thev had gone into the hands of third
parties, and consequently suspension
was agreed upon. The works will
continue to run, however, and pro-
visions will be made for the prompt
payment of wages. The iron works
have incurred no losses and are in
good condition, the suspension being
brought about by the necessity OF
meeting obligations for which nc
provision had been made. Mr.. Baer
says also; . ,,o
1--WE have every reason to believe
we will be able to continue the busi-
ness, pay our debts, and in the end
establish the company on such a
basis as will prevent similar disasters
from coming upon u.s."

are Strengthened out it will no gooo
to talk the public. As far as can bt
ascertained there have been no ad
ditional suspensions of brokers, ant
it is thought by those likely to know
that there will be no more. Wei
informed men think if trustees arr

the company will be able to cleal
