NEW R4IL-ROLLING PROCESS.
Successfully Tried at Pittsburg and Is Likely
20 lie Generally Adopted.

P%IrTsBURG. Pa, Oct, 30. Extensive alterations
are being made at the Edgar Thomson steel
Works in Brlddock, and II is believed that
when Andrew Carnegie comes to Pittsburg
next month q new process Of making steel
rails will be in operation. The new rails are 10
be tougher than those form erly made, Rail-
road officers have been complaining Of the steel
rails Of commerce. alleging that they were
brittle and not durable. Some time ago the
engineers Of the Pennsylvania Railroad suC-
gested a plan OF rolling tougher rails. The Car
negie Company put il to a practical test and
found the results to be excellent.
The point Of the new process lies in rolling
the rails at a lower temperature than has here
tofore been employed. For years the blooms
a. rolled from the inCots Of steel have been
sent 10 the rail mill ard rolled at a white heat.
Almost as soon rs they were placed on the hot
beds they were sent TO the presses and straight

A mortgage given by the Morehesd
& West Liberty Railroad Co. to a
Trust Co. of New. York was put to
record in our County Clerks office
last week, The mortgage is to secure
the payment of 100000 worth OF
bonds, the proceeds of which are to be
applied to building a railroad from
Morehesd to West Liberty. There
were S299.50 worth of revenue stamps
on the mortgage. 1t now looks very
much like we are to have a railroad.
Those who profess to know say work
will begin on it before the close of
this month.
