cinnati to be appointed by tho Mayor
was resd a second time, and tho House
refused by a.vote Of 70 to 33 to suspend

beTs OF the Board Of improvements, but
the resolution failed, aud tho House at

communication between California
and tho East over the Central Pacific
Railroad. General Superintendent

Company, in speaking to a reporter

Senator Stewart has the matter in

recent storms have demonstrated the
fact that We must have unobstructcd
communication with tho East. The
project isquite feasible. The expense,
OF course, will be great, somewhere

the benefits to be derived from the
work will wholly justify tho outlay.
1t will be as great a feat in engineer

eventually it will provo Of much more
