Lancaster daily intelligencer. [volume] (Lancaster, Pa.) 1864-1928, 1884-08-07

From the South Mountain railroad our
journey passed over tho Harrisburg ~
Gettysburg railroad, which is new road
and runs over treStle work in many places
of the most uncertain and creaky kind.
This railroad is decidedly new thing in
great deal of the country through which 1t
passes, for all the white dressed and blue
ribboned lassies and their sisters aud
cousins ana mothers, came for miles to
see us or our train as 1t whistlCd aud
soreeched and twisted past them. But
what's the use of talking about what we
all know, how the young men and some of
the older ones, too, halooed and saluted
tho above mentioned dresses and ribbons
as We rolled on toward Lancaster, tired
patriots that we were DRUMORE.

The acting secretary of the interior
has declined to grant the motion OF
Robert Carrick for reconsideration Of
the decision refusing to order survey
of Arsenal island, opposite ST. Louis.
Tho original decision was based upon
statements by the United States engi-
neers that Arsenal island was drifting
island, but Carrick now produces atiida-
Wits by two civil engineers of st. Louis
declaring that the island has been fixed
or anchored.
In his decision tho secretary says
This department would not order the
survey of land of the commercial value
and importance of Arsenal island upon
mere OK .parte aud contradictory afiida-
Wits and statements without the fullest
investigation, during which all parties in
interest might be heard, nor especially at
the solicitation of private persons so long
