The Eastern Shore Railroad is
ambitious to become a trunk line.
Recently we spoke of a branch road
to run through Dorchester county
and now we learn of another impor.
tant movement to reach the cele-
brated Chincoteague Island BY
means of another branch of the
Eastern Shore railroad. There is .
strong probability Of the construc-
ton of these two branch roads dur,
ing the coming summer. Both OF
these roads will open entirely new
fields for business. The BIackwa
ter region of Dorchester county is
rich in farm lands, timber, oyster:
and wild fowl. Chincoteague Is.
land lies in Chincoteague bay which
abounds in original oyster beds,

Convict Labor or Public Highways.

Convict Labor or Public Highways.
We stated recently on the author
ity Of the Cambridge Chronicle that
the people OF Cam bridge, pretty
little town town on the Eastern
Shore, was much pleased with the
result Of the employment Of persons
confined in their Jail, on the public
roads. We now learn from local
paper, that one township in Penn
sylvania has settled to its satisfac-
ton the problem Of permanent
county roads. The farmers of Har-
mar, in Western Pennsylvania, beye
allowed the superintendent of the
county Jail to macadamize their
highways with convict labor. IL is
said that these permanent roads are
being we'll constructed, and at a
very low cost. The convicts are
sent out in gangs of twenty at q
time to work on these roads, and
with but one officer in charge.
They are not shackled in any way,
and are said to be glad to exchange
the confinement Of the prison for
outdoor life and exercise.
We remember the time when con-
yict labor was employed on public
roads in this State. The great
turnpike between Baltimore and
Frederick city, was constructed
mainly by convict labor many years
ago, and is yet one Of the best roads
in the State. We see no objection
to the employment of such labor.
1t obviates the objection so often
made by mechanical associations
against allowing their industries to
come into competition with prison
contract labor. la later years some
emotional reformers excited the
sympathy of the people of Maryland
against convict labor inN open air
employments, and by special enact
ment the labor of convicts was con-
fined to indoor workshops, where
they are a constant thorn in the
sides of honest mechanics. A re-
turn to the old order would be ben
eticial to all concerned.

A TELEPHONE BURNED OUT.

The Trouble Said TO be Caused By the Pleas
ant Valley Wires-LOw Voltage Lines
Must be Kept Clear-A Fire Caused By a
Similar Accident.
Yesterday morning private telephone
line owned by the Allegheny County Light
Company, connecting their Pittsburg and
Allegheny stations, was burned out. One of
the electricians of the company was sent out
to investigate, and claims he found the trouble
was caused by the wires OF the Pleasant Val
ley electric street railway. He say
that the telephone line ran over the
trolley wire of the railway company
on Duquesne way, near the Ninth street
bridge. The trolley on the cars is supported
by an upright, which presses on the under
side of the wire, and the strain forces the
that the trolley wire had been pushed up so
high that it came in contact with the tele-
phone line. The crossed wires caused the
current to flow from the trolley wire to the
telephone line, and charged the latter with
its high voltage of electricity. The heavy
current caused the insulation at both ends
of the telephone line to be burned off and
rendered the line useless.
The officials of the light company say that
fires have been caused in buildings by
heavily charged currents coming into con-
tact with telephone wires. A case of this
kind occurred in New York few months
ago. In this case, it was an electric light
wire that crossed with the telephone line
and the latter was burned into white heat.
A telephone box in an Office on the line was
charred and sizzled, but there was no flame
from the burning instrument As soon as
it burned sufficiently to allow parts of it to
become detached, the burning wood fell
upon the floor and set fire to the carpet.
The fire YVES discovered in time to prevent a
disastrous confagration.

THE TARENTUM MURDER.

Detectives Working on the Case Agree
That Conroy Was Not n Party-Grimn
Supposed to be Far Away-St0len Jew
eIry on the SOuthside.
The work on the Tarentum murder is now
being done exclusively BY Detectives Lang
horst, Gilkinson and Finney. They have
entirely relinquished the. idea that ''Eggy''
Conroy had any connection with the crime,
but are still of the opinion that Peter Grif-
fin was one of the murderers. Their
theory, in fact, is that Griffin is the man
who stood in the doorway and fired the shot
which killed Mrs. Rudert.
The information came very direct yester-
day that all hope of catching Griffin To-
cally has been abandoned. The trail, which
was rather easy for seven or eight days, has
been entirely lost. and the local detectives
have no longer any hope of catching him
unless it be through the police authorities
in some distant Western city. 1t NAV be
said that one of the three detectives work
ing on the case, and the one who is the
Oldest man in the business, has grave doubts
that Griffin even had anything whatever to
do with the crime. He believes that the
four men connected with the affair all lived
within five miles of Tarentum.
About three weeks ago man called at an
Arlington avenue, Southside, grocery store
and leIt bundle, requesting the proprietor
to keep it until he called for it. As the de-
positor of the bundle failed to return, the
grocer became suspicious that something
was wrong and yesterday opened the pack
age, which contained lot of jewellers and
glass moldmakers' tools, representing in
value about $50.

ROUGH ON PORTER.

Judge Slagle Gives the Squire One Year
and Nine MOnrhs-A New Trial Refused-
Sheppard Also Got n Salty DOse-Easy
on Carney and Packer.
The argument on the motion for q new
trial in the eases of Alderman W. II. Por-
ter and Constables Elijah Sheppard, Thomas
Packer and Thomas Carney, who were con-
victed Of conspiracy, was heard yesterday
by Judges Slagle and Collier. The motion
for new trial was based on the allegation
that conspiracy had not been proven beyond
a reasonable doubt.
Thomas NJ. Marshall, J. E. O'Donnell
and W. j. Brennan argued for the defend
ants, maintaining that the law on con-
spiracy was indefinite and vague; that there
was no evidence to show a prearraneement
to enter suits to sextort money, and that
new trial should be granted to ali the de-
fendants. Mr.. Brennan's efforts were
directed in behalf of Carney, he holding
that nothing had been shown to prove Car
ney's part in the conspiracy.
Ex-District Attorney Porter resisted thu
motion, holding that the evidence justified
the verdict. He had no objections to the
recommendations for mercy in the cases Of
Packer and Carney, and referred to Packers
previous good character.
Judge Slagle, after looking over the
papers, said he saw no reason to change the
rulings Of the Court at the trial, and re-
fused the motion. He then sentenced Alder
man Porter to pay fine of $500 and costs,
and undergo an imprisonment of one wear
and nine months in the penitennary. Shep-
pard received $500 fine and costs, and one
year and six months to the peLitentiary,
Carney three months in Jail, and Packer 50
days in Jail.
The attorneys for the defense stated that
the cases would probably be taken to tine
Supreme Court.

LOCKHART BOUGHT 1T.

An Deed Settles the Owner.
ship of Long & Co.'s Mill.
The Sheriff yesterday made deed of the
Vulcan Iron Works, Long & Co. late
owners, to Charles Lockhart, proving that
a good many people guessed right on the
day of sale.
j. E. McKelvey, Esq, was questioned
concerning the matter, and though he was
almost as reticent as on previous occasions,
he said, it was the intention of the buyer or
if some one else not designated, to put the
mill to work and that soon. Mr. McKelvey
didn't talk as though he believed the obiec-
tions to the sale would hold water, but he
carefully refrained from expressing any
opinion on the subject. A rolling mill,
even in brisk business times, is an unwieldy
thing to handle In the matter of sale. In
the first place but few people have the loose
cash in their pocket to buy, and secondly
those who have may not have the training
necessary to make ownership profitable or
advisable.
The people of CHARTERS will hail with de-
light the announcement that the mill is to
be put in operation.

CHAIRMAN ANDREWS.
His Illness Prevents Him From Spending
an Afternoon in PfttaburR,

His Illness Prevents Him From Spending
an Afternoon in PittpburE.
Word was received yesterday afternoon
by a number of local politicians that Chair
man W. II. Andrews would be at the
Seventh Avenue Hotel at 2 o'clock in the
afternoon. At that hour a number of gen.
tlemen were waiting to see him, among
whom were District Attorney Lyon and
james L. Pugb, of Somerset Mr.. Pugh
will be remembered as the member of
the last House who is known as the best
looking man in that body from the western
part of the State. Mr.. Andrews, for some
reason, did not arrive. His brother, Charles
J., came in during the day, and could say
only that w. II. was sick.
Mr.. Andrews arrived in the city at 7:30
last evening, and had only time enough to
eat his supper at the Union Depot restau-
rant. He said that he felt like not coming
at all. His appearance and voice indicated
that he would have been wise to remain at
home. Mr.. Andrews said that he had been
laid up for ten days with the grip. He con-
fessed that be was hardly able to be out.
Pressing engagements, however, demanded
his presence in Washington, and he depart
ed for that city on the fast line at $40 P. NJ.
He was accom- panied, as far as East Liberty,
by Collector Warmcastle.

BUILDING NEW PLANTS.

The Work Which Mr.. Wolf of Philadelphia, +,
Has Under way-srnub's New Brewery
Large Additional Abattoir Buildings
on Herr's IsIand-A New York Scheme.
Mr.. Otto C. Wolf, the celebrated Phila-
delphia engineer and architect, is stopping
at the Hotel Duquesne Mr.. Wolf is in
this city to superintend and advise in
various large building projects now under
way in Pittsburg.
One of the chief of his works is the erec-
ton of an entirely new plant for Herman
Straub & Co., the Bloomfield brewers. That
firm will altogether relinquish their present
works, and have the new works erected on a
new plot of ground. The new establish
ment will be q complete one, somewhat
further up the street than the present brew
cry. Mr.. Wolf has the contract to super
wise the erection Of the buildings, which
will cost nearly 800, 900. The contractors
for the building are L. Benz & Bros, of
this city. The contracts for the machinery
have not yet been let, but will add at least
$50, 900 to the cost Of the plant. In addition
to that the firm has decided to put In large
retrigerating plant at cost $50, 900. The
company is now in correspondence with
several houses on that item.
By the new plant Messrs. b. Straub 8
Co. expect to at least double their capacity,
and TO compete with the largest firms doing
business in this locality.
Mr.. Wolf has also concluded another con-
tract, which is of some interest to Pittsburg
people. He has been selected as the archi-
tect and supervising engineer for abattoir
works which will exceed anything within
reach of this city. Winter & Dellenbach,
on Herr's Island, have chosen him to super
wise the construction on that island of a
large hog abattoir, an oilhouse and a tan
nery.
Mr.. Wolf is also in consultation with par
ties in regard to the erection of large stor-
age warehouse in this city.
Mr.. Wolf is a young man, and a casual
acquaintance could scarcely be convinced
that he is one of the leading architects of
Philadelphia. It was only last night, at
the Duquesne, that he received a telegram
from New York announcing to him the well
come news that he had been selected as ar
chitect of the great brewery plant to be
erected at once in that city by the Con-
sumers' Brewing Company. The telegraphic
dispatches conveyed the information last
summer that, as a result of the for
pool in that city, the retailers of
n ew York had formed sort of cooperative
association, to make and sell all their own
beer. This association, although nothing
has been said of it in recent months, has
been completely organized, and is now about
to erect q great plant. 1t is to be located on
Eastern boulevard, between Fifty-fourth
and Fifty-ffth streets, near the East river.
Large pumping engines will draw from the
river the supply of water for the refriger-
atlng machines The present annual con-
sumption of the members Of the Consumers
Company is zoe, 900 barrels per year; while
the capacity of the new plant will be $4,000
barrels

A CAPABLE MANAGER.
Mrs. George A. Kelly Speaks n Kind Word
for Miss TIIdesIey-The Expenses of the
Allegheny Hospital Are Exceedingly Low

Mrs. George A. Kelly Speaks n Kind Word
for Miss TIIdeHIey-The Expenses of the
Allegheny Hospital Are Exceedingly Low
Her Management Commended.
The action of the retiring Board of Direc-
tors of the Allegheny General Hospital
who, it is claimed, at the instance of one or
two of the attending physicians passed a
resolution at their last meeting advising the
incoming board to appoint male superin-
tendent in place of the present incumbent
Miss Tidesley, has caused considerable
comment among the friends of the institu-
ton in Allegheny, and with view of ascer-
tanning the general sentiment in the matter
a DISPATCH reporter called on several per-
sons intimately concerned and prominently
interested in the affairs of the hospital A
call at the residences of several of the staff
physicians proved futile in results because
of their absence.
Mr. Peterson, a member of the old board
was seen, and while the tenor of his re-
marks plainly showed prediction for the
present superintendent and a marked ap-
proval of her management, he declined to
express himself either for or against her
retention.
Mrs. George A. Kelly was next visited
and interrogated on the subject. She said:
''I can only base my opinion by the results
of the management which show a degree of
perfection in every department which alike
merits praise and challenges better execu-
tive ability. The economy which has char
acterlzed Miss Tildesley's superintendency
has shown her to be a most capable and
excellent manager. For several years the
earnings have been nearly sufficient to de-
fray all the expenses of the institution; this
is really very wonderful because the hospital
is small, has always been crowded with pa
tients and its resources are exceedingly linn
tied. The total expense of conducting the
hospital for the past year was carefully COM
puted, and comparison made.with the rec
ords of other hospitals in this country,
complete list of which we had, showed the
amount to be proportionately less than any
other for that period, while a very large
majority of them far exceeded this in the
amount of expenditure.
''I have been President of the Ladies So
ciety OF the Allegheny Hospital since its
opening. We have nothing to do with the
control of the institution or the appoint
ment Of its officers Our field of labor is
confined alone to its support. I must say,
however, that had the appointment of su-
.perintendent been left to me, L should have felt
great hesitancy in selecting so young per-
son as Miss Tildesley for the position, though
the result of her four years management has
proven her eminent capability."

PUTTING UP THE DUST.

Mr.. McCOmb, property holder, said last
night that he thought the right of way could
easily be obtained from the land owners. He
has discovered that street coming down the
hill was located by the city, but has never
been opened. He claimed it was blocked
through Councilmanic influence. Mr.. Nc
