From Our Regular Correspondent


WASHINGTON, March pa weil-known

sons does not care 70 have bis name men-
toned, consented 20 give the Dispatch cor
respondent to-day hts ideas regarding the
intentions OF the Republicans In the state
with regard 10 the approaching contest. Be-
ing asked who stood the best chance OF re-
ceiving The nomination he said: II think
that ex-Mayor Lamb, OF Norfolk, conh-
dently expects the nomination, and by rights
be ought TO have II. He has been more
prominently mentioned than any other Re-
publican In Virginia Congressman Bow.

"Yes, there has been; but as ! sad be-

BELT-LINE BIDDERS.
CONTRACTS AWARDED FOR THE CON-
sTRUcTIoN OF TIE ROAD.
Rapid Progress to Be Made and Cars to B'
Running in About Twelve
Months

The BeltLine contracts we're awarded yes
terday.
In about twelve months trains from the
North and South will be crossing The James
on an elegant iron bridge spanning the
stream abou, three and-a half miles west OF
this city.
Connection with the Fredericksburg road
will be mEde in the nelebborhood OF B'l-
lard's crossing, considerable distance be-
yond the Exposition.Grouuds. and with the
Richmond and Petersburg road about three
miles south OF Manchester.
THE CONTRACTORS.
II permitted by the Council the connec-
ton track on Belyidcre street will be used
for the transit OF passenger trains through
the city; IL not, both freight and passenger
trans will be run over the Belt Line.
Al any rate this new road is TO be pushed
forward with great vieor, and In week y
large force OF hands will be- at work under
the following contractors, whose bids were
on yesterday accepted by Major Myers:
Grading: A. W. Harman & Co.-Colonel
A. W. Harmsn, Of Staunton; Writ A. Ches-

OF Louisville, Ky.

Iron.work: Edgemore irony Works, Will
miBgton, Del.
THE ROUTE.
In view OF the objection to running trains
through the streets Of the city the route OF
this new connection road has been located
by Msior Myers and his assistants so as to
anticipate the future growth Of Richmond
and TO Obtain line in the country that Will
afford easy grades and curves. IL passes
from the Fredericksburg road down to The
river westwardy Of the Soldiers Home and
New Resi- ryolr Park. Necessarily IT passes
through or near by a number OF valuable
farms, and the owners OF all these VIII be
entitled 10 damages, TO assess which the
County Court OF Henrco las already ap-
pointed number Of well-known gentlemen
as commissioners.
THE FIGURES.
Until the land damages are assessed 1t IL
impossible 10 estimate with any degree OF
accuracy what the connection will cost. The
grading will probably amount to between
fifty aud sixty thousand dollars, and the
masonry TO about the SINE. Both will he
paid for by the cubic yard. The cost OF the
iron.work for the bridge cannot be ascer-
tanned.
The contractors are all obligated and
bonded to have their work done 10y the close
OF this year, so that at the beginning OF loJO
the company can commence tracS-aying.
