He told a Pittsburgh reporter that the
Sou'h Pennsylvania Railroad Company
had not yet decided at inst Whist point they
would tap the Pittsburgh, Mckeesport and
Ioughiogheny road. A number OF surveys
have been made, but the last and shortest
one makes cont ection above the Edgar
Thompson steel works. The company is
considering this route favo-abiy, as it is the
shortest and of good grade, and it is proba
Die that it will be chosen. The statement
that this company intended to build a new
dPTot on the South Side, the terminus OF
the road, the doctor says is not true. The
compsny will use, at least that is its inten
ticn now, the Pittsburgh and Lake Erie
depot.
What about the extension OF the road
to Wheeling through Washington or
Greene countless"
II don't know anything about that" he
replied, further than that the South
Pennsylvania Company have nothing to
do with this matter. The numerous sur

and Greene counties about year or more
ago were not made by the South Pennsyl
vania Company. Personally, ! don't oe'

that section. Our road will run in the in

act the money 90 raised can only be used

Improvements, aud not on any street al

Jun ction, prevent the expenditure of that
revenue for any other purpose. This levy
will, this year, amount to $4,000 in round
numbers, and with this sum a vast amount
of good caa be done.
Among these improvements Is one which
the Board will include, as it cannot well do
otherwise This is the Improvement of
Chspline street, south Of Sixteenth. At
present its condition is terrible, from the
s,rhg rain and thaw, and soft mud covers
10 an almost unfathomable depth. The
Importance OF this street needs only to be
mentioned to impress itself upon the
reader. At present it is the only outlet to
the manufacturing establishments Of East
Wheeling, which cluster about that neigh
borhood. These are many and important,
and the city is bound to furnish them IA
cilities commensurate with the large taxes
they pay. What was Seventh street, south
OF Fishers foundry, has been closed by the
Forsythes and in il one important outlet is
shut up. There is no Eighteenth street, TO
Market, and Nineteenth has been cut off
by the cavipg away of the creek bank.
Consequently, the only outlet for that
manufacturing centre is by Chapline street,
where mentioned, and down Seventeenth
street between the Hempfeld square and
the old brewery.
This single outlet is only one degree re-

STAB CaAnBE Il SESSION

or the Railroad Commfttee-Deadlo
on an Engineer.
At s o'clock, last evening, six railroad
magnstes were closeted in the cock lott OF
the City Building and two reporters were
near them, with the closed door between
them. The honest toilers of the press had
been refused admission to the presence OF
the msjestic msgnates, and now, with ears
glued to the crack and keyhole, they stood
there to gather in the words Of wisdom
that might fall from the lips Of the mag
mates.
The magnates were six in number and
were six OF the eight members Of the Coun-
Gil Commute on Railroads, viz: Messrs.
Wilkinson, Smith, Happy, Bingell, Work
and Peterson. They were met here TO-
getl er for the purpose Of discussing the
proposition OF the B. & o. road for right OF
way out the creek. When they fist as
sem bled, the reporters, as usual, made
their appearance and we're rudely expelled
from the presence. Not merely retired,
you understand, but cruelty driven ont, with
less ceremony than is usually employed
with knights OF the road, who nightly ap-
ply there for sleeping room in the lookup.
1t was q fine evening, however, and the
Knights Of the Faber stationed themselv es
on The door mat and coolly took in the
proceedings.
Nothing was done, literally nothing.
tt is same thing was done at the last meet
ing. Better luck to the meeting on next
Moo day night, to which time the mag.
mates adjourned. Some six proposals were
received from various engineers, who de-
sired TO do the surveying work. The com,
mittee had its favorites among these, and
as nobody wanted anybody else to know
bis preference, secret ballot was ordered.
1t resulted as follows: Hoge, 3; Howard,
8; this name Howard may be mistake,
but the name sounded through the key.
hole like Howard, so Howard goes. Anoth.
er ballot was ordered, but resulted the
same way. Then, after some little talk on
railroad grades, and little wait for alb
sentees to break the deadlock, aud who
didn't come, the committee adjourned.
Then the reporters appeared and asked
what was done. But Mr.. Peterson said
there was no necessity for telling what
was done at private caucus" and nobody
did tell. There was nothing to tell.
