is pending and the only matter to be consid-

efficiency.

The Hancock StAr says: THE presence
of Chief Engineer Parsons, of the West Vir-
ginia Central Railroad here, last week has
started anew the cry that that road will
shortly construct a line through the country
from Cumbcr land to Washington, by way of
this place. Engineer Parsons was tracing
the o!d Taylor survey made by the Western
Maryland railroad some years since. Only
one tunnel would be required in the building
of the road from Cumberland to this place
1t appears that the West Virginia Central
Company is bound to have an Independent
outlet from its coal fields tn tide water and
i, is more than probable that early steps will
be made toward the construction of such q
line. Stephen B. Elklns always favored the
road being constructed through the country
and was opposed to the canal project.
