Falling walls.

The walls Of the old Sweeney foundry
are getting more and more dangerous
every day. Within the last week sew
eral Of the inside walls have fallen.
1t is now dangerous for people to pass
that way, and nearly all who realize
the danger go to the other side OF the
street in passing. A crowd OF boys loaf
around the corner at Twenty-seventh
and Chaplins streets. There was a
scared lot of them there yesterday.
They found that by touching the old
brick wall it could be shaken. The pc
tition circulated by the citizens in that
locality, asking that something be done
to remove the old walls, seems to have
been of no avail.

system already built through Argentine
Rapublic. This will carry the line to
she Argentine capital, Buenos Ayres,
tbA great metropolis OF South America,
Another side line is projected TO Rio

Other TO Venezuela. Thus all the com
mey5ial centres and capitals are made
tributary to the line. Vast as che pro-

hnges without having to provide for
tny extensive or expensive tunnels
on bridges. There are several tunnels
about 1900 feet in length which, how
ever, are not much greater than the
railway tunnels entering several Amer
can cities. The bridges are not large,
though some Of them stretch across
very deep canyons ard abysses.
The commission reports that practical
good is already being accomplished by
the survey. Private capital is being
attracted TO various parts Of the route,
and thus links are being built which
will aid in the project. The Argentine
Republic has already developed all Of
the route through its territory. Thus
what appeared to be the veriest chimera
is rapidly assuming practical shape.
