ANOTHER ITEM
IN THE PROJECTED PROGRAMME OF THE
STREET RAILWAY MEN.
They Are Discussing the Building Of Bridge at
Bsllairs, and the Extension Of the
Line Into That City.

1t was stated yesterday upon the best
authority that the Improvements so far
outlined by the new owners of the
street railway do not by any means en-
brace all the ideas of the out-of-town
capitalists, and that before they COM
plete their programme they will have
expended a sum footing up somewhere
in the neighborhood Of a million dol
lars. This additional work will not be
undertaken at once, but it seems GER
tain that the preliminary arrangements
will be pushed while the rebuilding OF
the road, ETC., is In progress, and that
soon after the line as at [resens exist
ing has been put in thorough trst-class
condition and re-equipped, the new
work will be started in turn.
The additional expenditures and
plans here spoken of embrace the con-
struction of bridge across the river
at the lower end OF this city, and the
extension of the electric railroad line
over it to Gravel Hill, in Bellaire, and
thence through that city. A new bridge
from the Island to Bridgeport, such as
has been talked Of by the Wheeling
Bridge Company, has also been referred
TO, and several gentlemen have spoken
to the railway men about it. This
bridge, however, if built, will likely be
built by the Wheeling Bridge Company
and the electric line merely extended
across it.
The new bridge at Bellaire, however,
will be built by a new bridge company,
entirely separate and apart from the
Street Railway Company, although con-
trolled by the same men. 1t will be
highway bridge, Of the same general
type as the new steel bridge to the
Island, and will be erected at point not
vet very definitely fixed, but which will
be north OF Boggs' Island. The bridge
will have quite a long approach on the
West Virginia side, made necessary by
the low ground there, but on the Ohio
side the bank is high, and the ap-
proach there will be quite short.
Such a bridge would probably cost
$500, 600, and the building Of line into
Bellsire and its proper equipment would
easily eat up another 100000. This,
add to the half million or so involved
on this side of the river, would make
the aggregate expenditures a round
million dollars.
1t is figured that the outlay for a
bridge to BellairA would be amply just
fled, not only by the railway revenues,
but as well by the large foot and wagon
travel which would soon be built up,
and that there would be no trouble
whatever in clearing very neat per-
centage upon the inves tment.
1t is to be hoped that this project, so
often talked of in the past, will be car
ried out this time, and that it will meet
all the anticipations Of those whose en-
terprize leads them to make the venture.

About half-past two o'clock yesterday
afternoon John Huseman again abused
his wife in shameful manner, and was
promptly arrested by Officer Joe Daum,

week past, and the police have been
called upon two Two or three times to
..uiet him down, Yesterday he became
wild again, drove his wife out Of doors,
and then picked her up bodily and

unconscious. A number of the neigh

the house and placed in bed. She APP

FIGURES TO BE ADDED.
An Addition of $50 Names to the City
School Census.

Yesterday 500 additional names for
that portion OF the Second ward lying
east OF Wheeling hill, were reported,
increasing the total for the Second ward
from 1884 to 3,944, and the total for
the city to 35,725. This addition re-
duces the decrease i n the Second ward
from !, 207 to GA, a figure still large
enough for all practical purposes. This
chance arose from the fact sthat the
Third and Fourth ward enumerator was
given that part of the Second ward ly-
ing east of the hill for convenience, and
the figures were not forthcoming when
the REGISTER secured its data. As cor
rected the tabuIated returns are as fol-
