ANOTHER BIG DEPOT.
The Pennsylvania Company Will
Ast0nish Philadelphians.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. IA, 1S92.-The
Pennsylvania Railroad Company is ne
gotiating for the Central Market at
Seventeenth aud Market streets. II the
market company will sell its property at
a fair value, it will be paid, but if it re-
fuses, then the railroad company will de-
post a bond and take the property by
condemnation proceedings.
For a loug time the officials of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company have
been working on the plans for the en-
largement OF the Broad street station.
The plans for the accommodation of
more trains have been prepared, but
when they were presented The other day
to President Roberts and some OF his Of
ficers it Was agreed that The space at sew
tnteenth street WAS too narrow, n tnaC
to give better facilities for the prompt
handling Of inward ana tWa trains
more room was needed.
A survey of the locality was made and
it was found that by tearing down the
building on Market street as far west as
Seventeenth, the room required for more
tracks could be ecured. The Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Company owns most of
the buildings on Market street. but IT
does not own the Central Market, which
is on Market street, near seventeenth,
and extends back on the latter street to
the railroad.
THE WHOLE BLOCK MAY DE USED.
1t Is the intention OF the railroad COM
pany TO widen the tracks at Seventeenth
street. This part of the road is known as
the throat and has been a source OF trou-
b g to the officials of the road for a long
time. When the market property Is ac-
quired, it will be torn down and the road
will be made wider at this point. II it is
found necessary the whole block from
Sixteenth to Seventeenth street will be
RACED. On the corner OF Sixteenth are
the Adams Express offices. but as they
are only tenants of the railroad company
il will not take much of an effort to get
them out. II it is found necessary to tear
down the whole block the elevated road
will be extended to Market street.
The plans for the new station have not
yet been completed, but rs to the ground
plan that is so far progressed that very
little alteration will be made. The upper
floor, or train floor. will be entirely
changed. The ladies' private room will
be turned into q gentleman's smoking
room, the general room will be turned in
to small rooms for a news stand, tele-
graph. parcel and packages, and bureau
of information. The ladies' waiting Dom
will he where the dining room now is.
aud the general room will be where the
restaurant Is.
The ticket offices will be on the second
floor. There will also be a barber shop,
and on the Market street side will be the
dining room aud restaurant. In the gem
erat building on the outside of the enclos-
ures of these rooms will be an enlarged
lobby with the usual fence, gates, station
masters office and trainmen'S Office.

Aggressive Democracy.

Evidently the Democratic majority
in Congress is determined there shall
pe no mistake as to where it stands on
the question of public expenditures.
These wise and truly Democratic reso-
buttons were proposed yesterday by
Mr.. Holman of Indiana, Chairman of
the Committee on Appropriations and
they will be passed today after a brief
debate, every Democrat in the House
voting for them
Resolved, That In IL, judgment of this House
the granting of subsidies or bounties by Congress
in money, public lands, bonds, or by endorse
ment, or by pledge of the public credit to pro-
mote special private industries or enterprises OF
corporations, independent of the question or the
constitutional power of Congress to make such
grants, is unjust and impolitic. and in manifest
conflict with the spirit of our republican institu-
tions, as it directly tends to Gre ate and roster
the wealth of favored classes at the expense of
the whole people, who bear the burdens of Coy
eminent, and manifestly furnishes undue facili-
ties for the enlargement Of great private estates
"a policy which q Government OF the people
cannot justify or safely encourage by any form
of favoritism in legislation. -
Resolved, In view of the present condition of
the Treasury, and because efficient and honest
government can only be assured by frugal ex-
penditure of the public money, while unneces,
Sary and lavish expenditures, under any and all
conditions. leads inevitably to venal and cor
rupt methods in public affairs, that no money
ought TO be appropriated by Congress from
the public Treasury except such as is manifestly
necessary to carry on the several departments,
frugally, efficiently, and honestly administered.
If the party lives up to the resolves
here expressed, it can go before the
people in the Fall on this record alone,
and may throw all other issues out of
consideration

A careful reading of the annual mes
a G of Governor Albeit, which will be
found in full in today's Gazette, will
thoroughly inform n in all the con-
Germs and operations of our State Gov
eminent. The message is lengthy, but
it could not well be shorter and cover
the ground. Governor Abbett's theory
OF a message is a document that shall
give an account of his stewardship Il
of the work of every department OF the
government. that may be comprehended
by every citizen who contributes In the
way of taxes TO its support. In this re-
spect the present message is a model
one.
The first subject treated OF is the
finances. The people will read with
surprise and qualification the Cover
nor's very rosy account of the con-
dition of the Treasury, There are few
States in the Union. perhaps not
another, that can say, as the Governor
of New jersey says, that the extensive
Improvements of the State House
have been made, a big floating debt
paid off, several State institutions
enlarged, the Sea Girt Camp ground
bought, and all the ordinary expenses of
the government met, without mourning
debt, without increasing taxes, and with
ont imposing the necessity of a future in
crease of the revenues. This is a financial
record of which New Jersey my justly
feel proud. Experience may show that
the Governor in his enthusiasm has been
somewhat of u rainbow chaser, but the
principal facts ne gives are drawn from
official sources, and record actual trans
actions. The showing made by the Ex-
ecutive head of the government is very
gratifying.

There are some timid people who are

just what proportions the changes are

.Fide,io, at the METROPOLITAN.

A great performance Of Beethoven's
opera, "Fidelio." was given at the Metro
politan Opera House, New York, last
night. 1t was remarkable for the pres
ence of two of the first operatic artists of
the day, Lillian Lehman and Edward de
Rezke. Both these singers are uniquely
fitted to interpret the majestic and SOD
orous phrases Of the composer. Both are
statuesque physically. and correspond
ingly grand vocally and artisticaily.
Madame Lehman's versatility is becom-
ing more and more q matter of comment,
She is truly a great prima donna.
