original proposition was carried by vote
Of S5 ayes 10 = noes.
An effort was made 10 rescind the reso-

them to supply ready cars promptly. On

its capacity in moving so many heavy

better the past year and none of the roads

ARGUMENT AGAINST RATE CUTTING

ARGUMENT AGAINST RATE CUTTING.
A man who is fond of figures has taken
the annual report of theP Pennsylvania Ines
and figured on it little. He found that
the net income to the company on the
southwest system from a passenger trav-
cling fifty miles during 1897 was exactly
49, cents Thus, if a ticket was sold for
S125, and the passenger travelled fifty
miles, it cost the company, including
trainmen's wages, fuel, etc, just one dol
lar and twenty-one and half cents This,
he says, is one of the strongest arguments
against rate cutting.

That prolific writer, Lincoln ]. Car
ter, has given the stage another play,
and it will be seen for return en-
gagement in this city at the Grand
Opera House for half week, COM
nllancing this evening. Remember
the Maine" is the title of the new eff
fort and accounts agree tnat Mr.. Car
ter has constructed play that is bet
ter than anything he has yet done. Of
course, it deals with the recent war
and the destruction of the Maine. 1t
us sensational and covers incidents
from the time of the Maine disaster I'M
til Dewey destroyed the Spanish fleet
at Manila. Hal Reid who wrote "Hu-
man Hearts," is largely responsible for
the literary part of the play, and 1t is
claimed has made play rather above
the standard in this respect. Mr.. Car
ter, however, conceived the mechanical
and scenic effects and he is known to
be a master in that sort of work. 1t
is claimed that he has surpassed all
previous efforts in that direction and
has introduced a number of very re-
markable effects that are very realistic.
Some idea of the labor and expense
involved in the handling of a theatrical
company may be gained from the fact
that Mr.. Mortimer uses over 100000
pieces of printed matter, Autographs,
etc, each season in advertising his
business-enough sheets of paper if
placed. side by side to reach 2S2 miles
He pays the railroad companies for
mileage sufficient to carry one person
thrice around the globe with a trifling
surplus of six trips between New York
and Chicago. Mr.. Mortimer comes to
the Grand the last half of this week,
opening Thursday night in Hearts Of
Gold" and presenting first class dfa-
matte productions at 10, 20 and 80
cents.

LAST BRIDGE COMPLETED.

The Wheeling & Lake Erie company the
past week completed the work of putting
in the last Of fifty new bridges, which
were contracted for some time ago. The
last bridge was put in at Mt. Pleasant,
Ohio, where one of the old style construc-
ton structures was taken out. Since all
these new bridges have been placed in po-
sition, the road is in excellent condition
and all classes of trains can run at almost
the highest rate of speed. The track is
now being ballasted al different points
along the line, it being the aim of the
managers to place the road on an equal
footing with any of the lines in this sec
ton of the country.

On next Tuesday, March 10th, mat
inee and night, at the Opera House,
the music lovers of this city are to
hear Italy's greatest band, the Banda
Rosa. 1t will be remembered in
musical circles that this is the organic
alton which last year, in it's first Amer
lean tour, aroused such great praise
and enthusiasm wherever they APP
peared. In New York, Boston, Phila-
delphia and Chicago, both the public
and the critics were unanimous in
declaring that this was the most per-
feet organization of its kind that has
yet visited this country. Maestro Sor-
rentino and his perfectly trained corps
OF artists, selected from the best musi-
clans In Italy, together with his really
great soloists, will present pro-
gramme here that is sure to arouse
the greatest enthusiasm. The band is
we'll worth hearing.

The local freight agents of this district,
and who are all members of the National
Association, are now making preparations
for their trip to Norfolk, Va. The annual
meeting of the latter association will be
held in that city on June 18th, and the
members are busily engaged in arranging
for the event. The agents in this terri
tory are much interested in the national
meeting, for they not only learn much in
the railroad line at the gatherings of such
distinguished railroad men, but they have
a good social time as we'll. This year the
members of the Wheeling Association
have received from the Southern Railway
Company an invitation to be their guests
while on this trip to Norfolk. A special
train will be made up for their comfort
either at Cincinnati or Louisville, and the
party will be taken to the South, allow
ing them an excellent opportunity of seeing
all the famous resorts of North Carolina,
and in fact all along the line. The South
ern Railroad, as is web known, is one of
the most direct routes to the South. The
Wheeling delegation will be taken care of
by this railroad, and it is not necessary TO
add that the agents appreciate the hospi-
tality extended them by the company.
