The Rochester On. " Railway Company has un-
der consideration the ACCESSIBILITY OF adopting a
new system OF putting down rails, which. II II comes
ntoeenera use, will give the time honored wooden
lie a back seat The system proposed makes each
rail OF the track independent and provides for n
continuous prism of concrete under each rail y

the bottom and II inches in depth. The rails are
10 be laid directly the concrete, and fastened In
place by iron Jokes which compass the concrete
at distances of four five feet.
The originator OF this system Is Peter Heyners,
and it's use has been authorized In Syracuse where
contracts for five miles of construction In this
ner have been awarded, under ordinance OF the
Common Council directing that indestructible
lie or foundation he laid II is claimed for the sys
tenn that It's first cost IL less than that OF the
present standard OF construction which Is for ties

rail, made necessary 10 get the ties down deep
enough 10 enable the pavement Of stone blocks to
be laid over them. 1t Is further claimed that
roadbed laid in the manner proposed Is practically
indestructibc, and therefore there Will be peri

pose Of making repairs. and that absolute rightly
Is secured, with no play between the rail and the
pavement adjoining.

NEW RATES TO BE MADE FOR IRON, STEEL AND
rINPLATE WORKERS.
Pittsburg April 2T-There may be a serious hitch
IN the settlement of the annual wage scale of the
Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel and
Tinplate Workers. The new scale will be pre-
pared at the convention to be held In Detroit be-
ginning on May is. Some important changes will
be made if the new Tariff bill is adopted. II the
tinpate duties are not advanced there will be no
change in the rates paid, and the dlfferental
will continue for the making of sheets for the
market and for thinning purposes.
II is understood that the manufacturers VIII In
terpose objections 10 the continuance Of the diff
ferential and insist upon the tinpate prices for
all sheets made. This may cause trouble Not
wlthstanding the efforts of the manufacturers 10
lower the scale of wages for pudding, President
Garland Of the Amalgamated Association says
there viii not be a change: that is. the rate will
not be less than 81 % a The average selling
price of bar iron il 10 cents pound. and this
Is to be the basis of the scale.
