The Street Railway.

There is o certain defniteness in the way
the OwossO and COrunna street railway is
being built. Commencing at both ends of
the route with a large force of men the work
is being rapidly pushedAlntil it is but a
question of few days when the two cities
will be connected by this new bond. Rail-
road building is no new thing with the
Haines Bros. for that is their business.
Road after road in the northern states has
been built and equipped until these gentle
men are the largest street railway owners
and operators in the world. The presiding
genius of the Owosso city street railway Co.
is Chas. ID. Haines, who was born in Albany
Co., New York, i'm 1856, and who in the
prime of manhood is in the front rank Of
railway managers Mr.. Haines is accom-
panied to this city by his wife, who occupies
the peculiar distinction of being the only
| woman president of a steam railway Co. in
| the u. S. Mrs. Haines is as ardent in rail-
| way matters as her husband and is greatly
| pleased with Owosso and its possibilities
| and can, see no reason why OwOsso and
| Corunna cannot, as the twin cities. of Mich
| igan i'm a lesser degree, initiate the famed
twin cities of the northwest. And who can
dispute woman's intuition, especially il its
woman of trained financial experience.
| The street railway means thousands of dol
lars paid out here in construction, it means
the centralizing of business and the expan-
sion of the residence portion of the city, be-
cause rapid transit will enable people to
reside at a greater distance and do business
within the city. The experience of all cities
has been that residences sprung up along
the line and adjacent to the line of transit.
This will undoubtedly cause boom in the
| Woodlawn Park addition to the city where
a large number of houses are to be erected
| in. the spring. 1t seems more than probable
that the building of the street railway will
mark an era in the history of Owosso, and
| too much credit cannot be given to Chas. ID.
Haines, whose business judgment forecasted
the growth of this town and whose enter
| prise will unite two cities.

CLUBHOUSE.

TRYING TO OPPOSE OF THE LEASE OF THEIR
CLUBHOUSE.
The social end of tho County Democracy, the New
Amsterdam Club is likely to terminate its existence
with the year. The governors have lease Of the
club building al No. West Twenty eghtlst., until
May l. but they are trying TO dispose Of their lease
10 another club together with the refusal of the same
for two years longer which they hold The NewAm-
steam Club has been the meeting place Of the leaders
OF the County Democracy since that organization came
into being but when the club moved 10 its present
quarters in 1889, it announced that no more
political meetings would be held in ii. but that It's
main objects would thereafter be social rather than
political Little attention was paid to this
regulation, and the County Democracy executive
committee continued to hold its conferences there as
usual reorganization took place, however, and eX-
Collector John A. sullivan succeeded Richard 4. Gun
ningham as president Mr.. Cunningham had been tho
favored contractor of the Department Of Public Works
during the long period in which the anti Tlmmany
contingent camped in this department and fattened

Numerous expedients were adopted by Mr.. Sullivan
and the new management to resuscatc the clubs
waning fortunes but 1t recovered anything like
the prestige which IL enloyed in the heydey of It's

THE LIBEL AGAINST THE SHIP DISMISSED.
The steamship City Of Rome was libelled upon her
last trip by James CarinOdy, 'lOngshOreman, who
had fallen through hatchway while at work upon
that vessel in October. 1884 prior suit had been
brought in the Common Pleas Court, before Judge
Van Hoesen and jury, against the Barrow Steamship
Company, and 1t tried in January, 1887. The
action resulted In the dismissal Of the complaint after
both sides had rested. Another action was begun In
January 1885, against Henderson Brothers, as agents
of the steamer. The jury gave verdict for the de-
PENDANTS in the case.
In the present proceedings in the United States
District Court against the vessel exJustice Gedney
appeared for the defendants and raised the point that
the action having once been tried upon It's merits
in the State Court and dismissed another proceeding
for the same cause Of action could not be tried IN
United States court. Judge Brown, OF the .-United
states District Court has Just delivered an OPINION
dsnissing the libel in which he says u am satis
fled that upon the trial of this action should be
Obliged to hold that the former trial and Judgment

not amount TO negligence on the part OF tne ue
