Tug large thirty.inCh water pipes are be-
coming an eye sore to the people who live
,lons the streets on which they arc scat
tered. They have laid there these many
weeks, through all the advantageous
Weather Of the fall, and it begins to
ook s Il they might be found on top Of
roupd next spring. 1t is said that tho
DELAY is caused by the non.receipt OF some
olthe appuuenanccs that must go hand in
hand with the work Of putting down the
uipe Just why the pipes should have so
Ia preceded the appurtenances does not
appear. 1t is certainly a matter for regret
iat the good weather OF the fall has been
st for the work Of laying the pipes,
There is, however, one consolation in
having bought the pipes so much
ahead Of time-the price has advanced
nearly thirty.three per cent since the con-
tract. Chicago has just bought thousand
tons Of the @me water pipe at $4S 90 per
ton, whereas the price Of ours was $SS 80,
Delivered Each pipe has cost the city S67,
and when laid down will cost about SS5.
The lead about each joint will cost within
alaction Of $40, us it requires 175 pounds
narost Of 81 cents per pound. The cost
Of these pipes when laid in the ground
will not be far from $500, as there are
nearly or quite thousand tons, or, count
ing two tons to the pipe, 800 sections oil

WASHINGTON, November 1.-THE latest
information received here from Virginia,
Is that the election tomorrow will bc close,
but that the Rcadjuster party will proba.
bly, win. Congress Jorgcnson, who passed
through here last evening, on his way from
Richmond to New York, says that there
will be 100000 votes cast by Republicans
and Readjusters for Cameron for Governor.
He thinks there are 5000 Republicans
who will vote for Daniel, the Funder can.
didate, and from 5000 to 10000 Republic
ans who will not vote ut all. There were
5000 Republican votes cast last year for
Garfield. Mr.. Jorgenson thinks that about
10000 OF these will go for Cameron. lie
has seen such indications that the Readjus.
tGrs are making gains from the Democrats,
and believes there Is little reason to doubt
that the Malone party will carry the Iegis-
lature and elect the next United States
Senator. lie says his own Congressional
district will give Cameron 10000 majority
for Governor, and u general inference from
what he says Is that Cameron will be elect
cd and Mahone's triumph be complete.
