last July and had met with difficulty on
the way and only reached Constantinople

his delay:
The State Department was asked
some time ago by cablegram as to the
whereabouts OF Father Geisler, who was
encircled about the end Of August by
Arabs Ia tho Syrian Desert. The De-
partment complying with their wishes
notified the Ambassador at Constanti-

delay To-day a letter was received
from the Consul agent at Aleppo stating
that he had received visit from Father
Geisler September 18th and that he left

WE ARE TO HAVE NEW r. R.
A Corps Of Engineers are Now Surveying
the Line.

There is little doubt but that Reyn-
oldsville will have another railroad out
let in the very near future. A corps of
engineers, with b. p. Howell as chief,
came to Reynoldsvile Monday and are
now at work surveying for railroad
line between Reynoldsville and Punxsu-
tawney. We interviewed Mr.. Howell,
but as usual In such matters, he was
reticent and all the Information he
would give was that railroad line
would be surveyed as above stated and
that the line would connect with the
A. V. R'y at this place. Some OF the
other members Of the engineer corps,
who were not so reticent, informed the
scribe that the survey was being made
by the Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
We believe 1t is an extension of the
Pennsylvania and Northwestern Rail-
road that now runs into Punxsutawney,
and il that be the case, Reynoldsville.
instead of Punxsutawney, would be the
terminus of the road and 1t would
bring number of railroad crews to
this place. besides being great benefit
to the town in many other ways. This
would give the Pennsylvania road a
direct line to the lakes, and that CON-
pany is largely interested in coal fields
south of here. The coal would be hauled
over the new line to Reynoldsvi'le, over
A. v. R'y to Falls Creek, over Ridgway
and Clearfeld R'y to Clermont and over
the Erie lines to the lakes. The Penn.
sylvania Company is interested in all
these roads.
The new line will be quite boom for
Reynoldsville, as there will be no other
town in this section with any better
railroad advantages than our own town
