DISCUSS TIE GRADES.
Engineer Brown, OF the Baltimore and
Potomac Railroad Company had a confer
ence with Commissioner Powell yesterday,
at which the practicability of depressing
and eleYating the tracks of the road, as
contemplated in proposed legislation, was
Informally discussed.

in the District is laid out, was carefully
gone over. a report made in s93 of plan
for changing the grades was discussed and
objection was made by Mr. Brown for
reasons given, TO the depression OF tracks
at various points To the depth proposed.
The fact that the sinking of the tracks
involves a contact with sewers and water
mains is Il consideration, and in addition
there viii Ice trouble in gaining an ap-
proach to the tracks if too great Il depth
is insisted upon.
The railway engineer has consented TO
inquire into a plan for elevating the tracks
and viii submit the result OF his observa-
tions TO Commissioner Powell, and the
latter Will inveStiga the suggested diff
culties in the way OF depressed tracks.

may be required and to what extent il can
be realized.
