"And who are these gentlemen, Mr..
Trenor?"
why" said he, Mr. Mackey is the
president Of the Virginia Beach Hotel and

superintendent of the Board OF Engineers
of the New York Aqueduct, and IS the en-
gineer of the Underground railway and
engineer of the Baltimore and Drum Point
railroad. Mr. Fry is member Of the New
York Stock Exchange. The Richmond
members, Messrs. Belyin and BossieuX, you
of course know"
THE PLAN.
"The idea" said Mr.. 1renor, is to run
the road to the Potomac to connect with
the Baltimore and Drum Point road. This
will give us q connection from the Poto-
mac river to New York. The connection
will be made at place called Piney Point,
and we will have boats made TO carry
whole trains across. The Wicomico branch
we will also build"
THE CONTRACT.
"But. Mr.. Trenor," said the inquisitive

work on the tunnel; who will do it; will
the enterprise now surely 60 ahead? ?"

the firm of Mason. Hoge & Co., do you
not? Well, they have taken the contract
and will push the work Of construction
with all possible speed"
At this point Mr.; Mason came into the
room. yes" said he, - 1t is true that his
firm had undertaken the work" They
would proceed, he added, without delay.
He had been to all the brick-yards here,
and found that to get enough brick for the
tunnel this season was impossible. He
knew of no other impeachment.
Mr.. Trenor and Mr.. Atkinson stated that
the tunnel had already been pierced down

that the calamity at Johnstown has seri-

many lines of trade. These disasters
have entirely changed the situation in

created in these lines which viii result
in temporary revival and firmer prices.
