NEWS OF RAILROADS.
Tracklaying on the Great
Northern Soon Begins.
cLoucH AND BECKER COMING.
Surveys Of the Eastern Line Ready for
; Choice OF Routes-work On
Port Townsend Line.

Tracklaying on the Great Northern rail-
road begins about May Is from the juno
ton with the Fairhaven & Southern rail-
road near Jarman Prairie. From that
point track viii be laid to Mount Vernon
and from Seattle the rest of the way. It
may be decided to lay track simultar
neously from both directions, but this is
not likely.
Vice-President Clough and Chief Engi-
neer Becker will be here about May Is,
probably to arrange for the final
location of the line across the
mountains. Some arrangement may
also be made for beginning construction
on the Portland line As the Union Pa
cific has only resumed work south of Gen.
tra1ia, the inference is drawn that the
Great Northern will build the northern
end as originally agreed.
The preliminary surveys for the line
across the mountains have been COM
pleted with the apparent exception of the
Skykomish river route. Engineer Stevens
is now at the summit of the mountains,
about twenty miles above Sultan, and
from this fact those interested in that
route infer that it has been selected.
Official information is that no selection
has been made. All the other engineers
in the field and draughtsmen in the Fair
haven Office have been discharged, imply
ing that field work is over.

Meeting Of the Committee on
Retrenehment.
TIE SCHEDULE or SALARIES.


Delegates Shipley. Kittinger, BagIey and
Morford were the only members Of the
retrenchment committee present at last
nights meeting. Mr. Shipley suggested

CITY GOvefuuent.
The Citizens League held meeting 81
the Chamber of Commerce last evening,
at which E. o. Graves presided, and J. A.
Gould acted as secretary. The main BUSH
ness was the reception of the report nom
II. W. Durant and u. u. Carraher, the
speciaI committee on retrenchment IN
the city government They reported that
the question Of cutting expenses was being
considered by the members of the city
council and the heads of the various de-
partments. An earnest effort to retrencn
was apparently being made, and 80 no
present action by the league was necessary.
The report was adopted.
uSeveral speeches were made on the gem
eral features of the work of the organize
ton. The importance Of being at the polls
for the election tomorrow was dwelt upon
at some length. It was argued that both
the Republican and Democratic nominees
for aldermen were good men, and the
league would not take any action favoring
one more than another. James Leddy
said that if either party should in the fu-
ture nominate bad men, he hoped tho
such nominees.
Mr.. LedQy declared tuat HUGH gOou Hau
already been done. Chief Rogers, Of the
police force, had abated many evils, and
for that at least was deserving much
credit. Mr.. Leddy further urged that the
members, not only collectively but indi-
vidually, turn their efforts both toward
securing the enforcement of existing laws
and procuring the enactment of better
ones.
Major James B. Hayden seconded him,
and thought that as much could be ac-
complished by quiet action as by public
meetings. After vote of thanks to the
Chamber of Commerce for the use Of the
chamber the meeting adjourned.

Ter apportioned among the different officials and

On speaking of the fire department, Mr..
Bagley said that when the ordinance came
up for action they should invite in repre-
sentatives of the underwriters, ex-firemen
and regular members of the fire department
to discuss the matter. He advocated the
call men system, and said that if the in
surance rates were advanced they would
have to be paid, but it is not fair to make
the residents of the outskirts of the city
pay for protecting the down town build
ings.
Kittinger did not believe in call men :
this was not the idea of the way fire de-
partment should be run, although he was
in favor of reducing the present expenses.
The limit of expense agreed upon is 81 500,
practically corresponding with the figures
in Bagley's ordinance published some time
since.
If this ordinanced is passed it will make
a saving of about $4,000, the salary list
last month amounting to $3i, 900.
