| ten TO thirteen rows OF tracks, 40 feet

| The declining track system is in vogue
and the jugger system OF transferring coaches
will be used, so that the ears can be readily
taken 10 the large Graves electric elevator
| and carried to any floor.
The building is fire-pronf throughout and

Opening on the roof is large well
which furnishes not only light. but ventiia-
tion TO the lower storage rooms.
The north end OF the roof is on level
with Prospect avenue, the adjoining street,
and it was necessary to place sustaining
wall eighteen feet wide at the base to
support the enormous weight So that
at the foundation at that end of the
building the walls are in the neighborhood
of twenty feet wide, while on the other
three sides they will easure two feet
six inches Attached to the main build
ing on the north is also a continuation OF
the retaining wall at the intersection of
Thirty sixth street, with steep stairway
leading to the street above, and adjoining
the wall is the company's stable, neat
building OF red brick.
The method of conducting the cable
cars through the building is very simple
and effective. The tracks pass in a
loop around the office part and the trains
are propelled by gravity from the time
they enter the east arch until they reach
the western end. when the cable is again
taken up III the grip.
Although open for business, the building
is not yet fully completed, and all day
yesterday about thirty five workmen were
| employed putting on the finishing touches,
which will occupy some time. Ground
was first broken in November, 1894, but
work was not begun in good earnest
until May year ago, since which time
workmen have been constantly employed
Chief Engineer D. s. CARL, of the Traction
Company, has had charge of the construc-
tion. The plans We're furnished by w. B.

Senators on the Hawaiian Treaty.
Washington, d. G., June 20. -
Ex-Queen Liliuokalani and her
entire suite called at the Senate
chamber this afternoon. Cards
were sent in for several Senators,
with whom the Queen talked. She
was urging, presumably, unfsvor-
able action on the Hawaiian an.
nexation treaty. ItIis understood
that she is also paving the way for
claim for damages against the
Government, unless provided for
! in some treaty If the annexation
law is enacted.
During the visit it developed
that Senator Davis, chairman of
the Committee on Foreign Rela-
tons, yesterday received q written
request from the ex-Queen for q
hearing during the consideration
Of the Hawaiian treaty. The Sen.
ator denied the request, suggest
ing that the first step in the direc-
ton of recognition of her claims
should come from the executive.
It is believed that she intends
leaving the city to return when
the treaty is considered next
winter.
