RAILROAD MATTERS
Of Prime Importance to the People
of Wheeling.
Some Hard Facts Concerning the B. &
0.---The Proposed Union Depot
The River Road and
Other Lines. 81

will your petition to Council, in regard
to the B. & o., have any weightY' RE
IsrER reporter asked prominent mill own
er, yesterday: -
ats hard to tell what that Council will
or will not do, butt should have passed on
all these petitions long ago It's dilly-dally-
ing course is not eNcusable, but highly
ieprehensible. Here is the Ohio River road
ready to come in and that ordinance is
not through,one branch yet. To my mind,
its simply disgusting.
"How about the B. 4 o., fneY
There is not a member of that Railroad
Committee that seems to have the slightest
idea of what the completion of that line
means. 1t means a through line to the
coke regions, sir. Now, what does that
mean? II means that last Wheeling can
say she NAV offer the same, or better tacitl-
ties 10 manufacturers than Pittsburg
thing she never vet has been able to say.
While our coal facilities are better, yet it
has always cost Si.OU q tOn LnOIo W hhahS
iron here than Pittsburg and all becaOse Of
the difference in the freights on coke.
What is that difference
ut is 81 ton on coke and as it takes
ton and half of coke to make ton Of
iron, tie difference iSSl.50 on every ton.
Think of the number of tons handled here
every year, and YOU will have an idea how
much that one item costs the Wheeling
mills"
We'll, how much?'
40 estimate it roughly l should say the
various mills and furnaces in and about
Wheeling consume 100000 bushels Of coke
annually. At any rate lis between 250, 900.
and 100000 bushels. That means that
Wheeling spends 100000 more for freights
III coke than she would if she had through
ire The B. Il 0. though line means
Pi;tSburg rates-no doubt about that. The
mills make and have made Wheeling, and
low have they no claim at the hands OF
omrcil?'

THE UNION DEPOT

That Sanguine Railroaders Place on
Tenth Street.
Mr.. A. B. PAUL, of the Mt Vernon, Co
shocton and Wheeling road, is one of'the
most sangune railroad men ever in Wheel
ing. On this account, he is a good man to
have about, for it is inspiring to note the
confidence with which he talks. The .bane
of Wheeling has been that feeling which
prompted her people to stand back and say,
when a promising scheme is proposed:
oh, well, don't know about that There
is nothing of that about Mr.. PAUL The
