Why should persons be asked to take
time from their own business in order to set
tie an estate or act as trustee, when we have
trust Institution in our city such as The
Safe Deposit Company Of Pittsburg, incor-
porated to attend to such work?
Why should people leave their estates or
trusts to be administered BY person, in
which case there is always the contingency
of death or incapacity caused by sickness,
when permanence can be secured by put
ting the estate in the hands of The Safe De-
posit Company Of Pittsburg, trust institu-
tion having a perpetual charter?
Why should persons be asked to furnish
bond, which in many cases is difficult to do,
or is not desirable to do, in order to comply
with the desire of those who make their
wills in this way, when the estate, to say the
least, could be as well administered by
trust institution such as The Safe Deposit
Company OF Pittsburg, having large capi-
tai full paid as the security required by law?
Why should people leave their estates or
trusts to be administered by persons, who
are inexperienced in the discharge of such
duties, and by their inexperience are liable
to cause loss or trouble to the estate, when
experience can be secured, without doubt
by providing for the trust being taken care
of by The Safe Deposit Company OF Pitts
burg, an institution having facility in
business derived from an experience of more
than 20 years?
In word. why should people choose an
when they can have certainty?
Why not decide upon an impersondI admin
istration OF the estate or trust by The Safe
Deposit Company Of Pittsburg, an old and
tried institution, and in every way qualified
for such work?

RUsTLING THE WORK.

superintendent Malone Reports Progress 20
be ExceIIenl-some Statistics as to Re.
cent Energy Expended.
Superintendent Malone, of the Govern
ment building, which has been crawling to-
ward the heavens in much shorter order
than the direct route adopted BY Eliiah's
chariot. said last night. "The papers have
been commenting more or less on the progress
Of this building. There you see the men
are at work as they have been for month
at night, and you can see that the stones are
going in place. When will the building be
put under cover? About next June think
as far as the present indications serve.
"As far as the advancement of the work
is concerned do not wish by any means to
be considered egotistical. but so much
comment has been made on our progress
that I must make some statement on the
condition of the place. I am free to say that
took hold of the building at about the
same time of year as my predecessor, and in
the same months have laid up to date 1000
more cubic feet of stone than was done in
the same time last year"
This, it will be observed, ,at the rate, as the
average will show, of 100 pounds to the
cubic foot, shows 80 tons advantage in the
hands of Superintendent Malone, or at least
on top of the building. When asked what
number of tons he took off the building on
first taking charge, Mr.. Malone refused to
give any information on the subject, al
though this would raise the number of tons
quite considerable, BY adding the rebuilding
to the new building. He said that
the only thing he wished was to vindicate
the management of the Government build
ing from the charge of slowness. One more
ship load of stone he thought would about
finish the edifce, and he expected that be-
fore very long. The yards around the build
ing were crowded with the stone already de-
livered, and if work is held back it will not
be for want of material, and, as the night
work shows, lack of energy.

At last enterprise in Caraspolis seems to
have unlimbered with the intention of keep
ing up its present gait The manager oi
the steel tool works company is lying In bed
with broken thigh, but be is hard at work
on the plans which are urgently needed and
as the weather is equal to summer for build
ing operations, things are movi ng merrily.
Lashell and Rankin say there are more than
the usual number of inquiries for property,
many more than usual at this season of the
year and the muddy roads are not keeping
back operations materially, as material can
be landed from ,the railway within few
hundred yards of any place it is wanted,
there being three stations within the bor-
ough, beside one at each end.
Some people of moderate means have con-
ceived the idea of making their small accu-
mutations work for them and are buying
lots and building neat houses that will rent
for $40 to $15 month. They expect to rent
them readily when the steel works are
started.
The cemetery question isn't SO exciting as
1t was tewsweeks ago, but the impression
prevails that the project will win in spite of
all opposition. So far the agitation has had
tendency to boom the crematory idea, and
it does seem strange that most cemetery
projectors should choose hilltop locations.

Put to work on such roads as that, aud on
the worst kind of roads, don't see how
such labor would compete with any other /
am heartily in favor of such scheme, and
think so would the farmers, who would
much rather pay for the performance of such
work than do it themselves.
President Weihe concurred, adding:
''This is about the only kind of work that
conVicts could be put at without interfering
with regular laborers If men confined in
penitentiaries must be given employment,
let the State get the full benefit of the work
and not those on the outside who contract
for it. There is no reason why an institu-
tion of this character should not be self
supporting and save the State considerable
expense"
Assistant Secretary Madden: "And if the
roads adjacent to the city were put in good
repair, it would be possible to get out in the
country at less expense than at present. The
road to Broadhead is so bad that many
hVerymen will not risk sending their horses
and carriages over 1t, especially in the bad
season. And the cost to get there is more
than it would be if the road was good"
Editor John Ehman said: "I should like
to see convicts employed in agricultural
labor, under the direct control of the Warden.
They would then be able to provide in
great measure their own sustenance with
out entering into competition with other
labor. COnvicts could be employed on
public roads where they would not compete
with common labor. II would be better to
have the roads in good order through the
of convict labor than to have
no good roads at all. l would not employ
convict labor in populous community
where it would interfere with ordinary labor,
but 1 think it could be advantageously used
to open up roads through wilds and in such
places as are now utterly neglected"
1. n. Ross, of District Assembly 3,
knights of Labor. said: ''The farmer who
now works his taxes out might pay them
into the State Treasury and have the State
employ convicts to put the roads in good
repair. 1 think convict labor could be
turned to account in putting our
public roads in good shape, provided the
of the ordinary laborer were
not interfered with"

The Board of Viewers WrestIe With Prop

The Board of Viewers yesterday held final
meetings on the grading and paving Of
Dresden alley and on the opening of Ivy
street. Considerable interest was mani
tested in the Ivy street matter, and num-
Der of the property owners came to the Office
of the board with lawyer whom they had
engaged, and were going to make fight on
the assessments. The Twentieth Ward
School Board was also represented, and two
directors thereof came prepared to put in
claim for portion of the school property
taken when the street was opened past the
school.
They were informed and convinced that
they had delayed putting in their claim too
long, and could not now get any damages
at all. The other persons who came to Op-
pose the assessment were shown how their
assessmentswould be increased if certain
claims they made were allowed, and they,
too, subsided, and their attorney had
nothing to do.

Capital Stock of S5OO,OOO.
The keystone Construction Company, the
Mair Construction Company and the WASH
ington Carbon Company were consolidated
yesterday under the name of the North
American Construction Company, with a
capital stock of $500, 900.
The principal business of the three COM
panies was putting up plants and lines for
the Westinghouse Electric Light Company.
1t frequently happened that the companies,
though working together and for the same
people, would meet in the same town and
clash at their work. To avoid these diff
ferences the Mair Company made PROPOSE
ton to the keystone people, and yesterday
the stockholders of the latter company met
in the Westinghouse building and prscti-
cally accepted the terms. The new COM
psny will meet again to-day or Monday to
elect officers. One of the heaviest stock
holders is George Westinghouse, Jr.
