BEING MADE
On the Wheeling and Elm Grove
Electric Lire.
a Large Proportion of the Work
Between the City and Wheeling
Park Has Been Accomplished,
aud Another Month Will Sec the
Road Practically Completed.

The contractors for the construction
of that portion of the Wheeling and
Elm Grove electric road lying between
the eastern limits of the city 4 and
Wheeling Park are making progress,
and within thirty days the line will
be practically completed, so far as the
construction of the permanent way is
concerned as will be seen by the fol-
lowing summary of existing conditions:
Both bridges over the creek at the
Peninsula are ready for the iron, and
month will see them completed. The
rails have been laid from the north end
Of McCulloch street to the creek bank,
while the wire is up along the old line
of the steam road from Baker street
to the centre of Fulton. The founda-
tons for the power house, at McCulloch
street are far advanced and a large
number of men are at work there. From
the eastern end of Fulton the track is
down through ThOmpsOn's field to the
crossing of the pike at Stackyard Hol-
low, and this crossing will be down in
a few days. A large force Of men were
at work yesterday moving the station
at the hollow, and preparing to con-
meet up the lines at the crossing of the
pike. East of Stackyard Hollow the
second track is down, ballasted and in
service as far east as Woods run. At
the run the new abutments for the
bridge are in, and the iron is on the
ground. From Altenheim station to
Echo Point the second track is down,
while the material is on the ground
for the track from Echo Point to Edg-
ington's. From Edgington's to Sci
and rails, and the material is on the
ground. The new double track curve at
Seiberts is excavated ready for the
track On the pike, from Seibert's east
to Paxtons the second track is down
and paved between the rails, and
large force of men are at work grading
tup 1uIl WIuIu VI lLt plkO lOl luO DilOh
paving, the curbing is on hand and is
being dressed and thousands of brick
are piled up everywhere. The stretch
of paved track extends from Seiberts
clear to Greenwood cemetery, while the
rails are laid to within few rods OF
Wheeling Park entrance, except one
small stretch of a. couple OF hundred
feet. All along this distance the poles
are up, and men were stretching wire
yesterday. East of the Park little has
been done but men were at work yes
terday digging holes for the posts along
the route to Elm Grove.
AS a matter of course the pike is
torn up pretty badly at few points,
but this will soon be remedied, and
when the work being done by the coun-
ty and Railway Company is once COM
pleted the road will be in better shape
than ever before, and hauling will be
much easier.

AN ISLAND INCIDENT.

A squad Of the electric light plant
workmen, while prospecting recently
on one of the Island streets for suit
able point to run the wires, encoun-
tered an unexpected obstacle which
they are still talking about 1t appears
that they stopped in front of residence
with their axes and other implements
of their craft, and began inspecting the
fine shade trees. The lady Of the
house. a sweet faced and mild talking
parsonage, ventured the query as to
what they wanted. The spokesman Of
the party answered with much assur-
ance that they intended chopping down
a part of one of the trees to make room
for the wires We'll, you had better
not" the lady remarked. oh yes we
will" retorted the spokesman. "the
boss says to chop down anything In
the way" 81 don't care what your
boss says: you take my advice and let
these trees alone. They belong to me-"
The squad gave a sort of ironical grin
in unison, as much as to say that such
protests were common and weren't
worth the least consideration. The
tools were unlimbered ladder placed
against one of the trees and one of the
men assembled with a saw in his hand

cious expenditure of coin, the bank
wreckers planned their campaign and
succeeded.
They could rely upon the silence of
two newspapers, the collision of high
official of the State and the co-opera-
ton of a great corporation. Sherman
indicates in these letters that he was
the chief manipulation in securing this
tremendous advantage for the dishon-
est bankers. His letters necessarily are
of exceptional interest.
Sherman was not only fearful of the
blackmail of local papers, but feared
those in the southern part Of the State
He informed Dick that a great paper
in Southern California was about to
change hands, and he would have it so
arranged that the McDonalds could use
the paper for whatever purposes they
pleased. Incidentally Sherman re-
marked that it had cost him a great
deal of money to keep the City Council
of Phoenix from interfering with his
schemes and projects. In these let
tiers this man discusses blackmail, brib-
cry, official corruption and private dis
honesty as simple business propositions,

SHERMAN DECLARED THAT THE CHR0N
ICLE AND EXAMINER HAD BEEN
FIXED"

The letter that follows is one of the
most important that M. H. Sherman
contributed to the secret correspond
ence of the Pacific Bank In this epis-
tie Sherman declares that D. S. Dorm
and r. H. Mcdonald Jr. had fixed"
the Chronicle and the Examiner and
that nothing in reference to the condi-
ton of the Pacific Bank will be pub
lished. Woodland had been in San Fran
cisco showing around a list of the as
sets of the Pacific Bank and declaring
that the institution was insolVent.
Sherman declared that several news
paper reporters had seen the document,
but that Dorm and Dick Mcdonald had
silenced the Chronicle and the Exami-
ner as already indicated. In his letter
Sherman also said that he had spent a
great deal of money in keeping the
City Council of Phoenix from offering
encourag cement for a competing street
railway line there. Another effort was
made to induce the McDonalds to give
an option on their Phoenix water bonds
and incidentally Sherman declared that
he would go drown himself if his love
