motion in the District court. asking that
the Commissioners of the District be com
PEELED to proceed, in the matter without

The question Of the extension of Six
teenth Street has been agitated for at
least ten years to nay knowledge Since
the passage Of the street extension act OF
1893, land lying il the line OF the proposed
extension has been rendered practically
unsaleable and owners of such land have
mad TO bear taxation at a high rate and
pay interest on encumbrance for at least
ten years, being all the time prevented by
this unsettled question from selling their
land or obtaining reduced interest rates.
The owners Of such land have really been
subjected to financial cruciixion by the IN
reasonable delay in procedure At last
some public spirited citizens agreed to and
did dedicate a large quantity OF land for
said street under a strong implied 4 not
positive agreement by the petitioners
that there should be no further delay"

says the Prospects for Democratic
victory Are Bright.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 27-A general air of
confidence pervaded Democratic head
quarters yesterday, and without excep-
ton each Democratic leader declared the
chances for party triumph in the State
improving every day.
Ex-senator German arrived shortly af-
ter noon and held conferences in Chair
man Vandiver's private room. After the
big Bryan meeting at Music Hall Tuesday
night MIR. Bryan and Dir. German had a
confidential talk OF an hour at the Hotel
Rennert. and il is supposed the two got
very close together. The outlook was
discussed yesterday in the light of that
conference. and after the talk was over
Chairman Fandiyer declared emphati-
cally his belief that the Democratic
party would win in Maryland. Il tasa
TINS, he said, ION the deep interest
which the people are taking in the fight.
l never saw it equaled in any O. her cam
paign."
Mr. German dined with Mr. Vandiver at
the Hotel Rennert and returned to his
home in Laurel on the AIS D. NJ train
Before leaving he said that the outlook
IN the State was very bright. Our peo-
pie, be said, are very confident. and
the trend Just now seems to be with US
l have not had opportunity to go very
deeply into the situation here but from
what ! am told it is certainly satis.ac-
tory to u.s.
When asked why the chances were 50
much better this time than four years
ago in this State Mr. German said:
The greatest point OF difference be-
tween this campaign and that of 1896 IS
that the Democrats who left US th-n have
returned to the fold. Four years ago
when we held meeting il was hardy
possible to get any business men or man
prominent in professional life to go en-
the platforms. This time things are differ
ent, and large numbers Of those who let
US have come hack AS for the general
situation. all l can say is that the Ma
tional Committee has confidence in the
result. and Mr.. Bryan himself is conf
dent that he viii be elected The mass
es of the people seem TO be with the par
~ th:s time more strongly than in
former campaigns
Mr. German spoke of the splendid re-
coption accorded Mr.. Bryan in Maryland
and said he must have spoken to at least
so 900 persons.

ceedingiy low as compared to rails. struc-

As an effort 10 being made to organize

probably advance plates $40 ton If the
move is successful, Mr.. Cowen showed
much foresight by getting under the wire.

Reeentiy,ywhiie President Cowen WAS in
Pittsbufg, he said that his company would
need about 10000 tons of steel rails, and
that the engineers were at work en- the
specifications. They are apparently still
at work on them, as no ORDER has been
placed with the pool since other railroads
IN the country have openly refused to pay
S26 Per ton, and say that S22 is enough
The chances are the Baltimore and Ohio
viii not pay $26 per ton for rails. and the
national election will have nothing to do
with it.

Charles NJ Hayes, General Manager of
the Grand Trunk Railway, has been Sc
lected as President OF the Southern Pa
ciffe Company by the committee consisting
OF James Speyer. Charles H. Tweed. and
D. o. Mills, which for some weeks rsst
has been considering various names for
the position. The appointment is perhaps
chiefly interesting because of the Light it
throws on the question whether the Van
debit interests have acquired control of
the company. This has been claimed by
some Wall Street people recently and de-
MED strenuousIy by others
1t is known that H. E. Huntington was
originally slated for the position. as stat
ed in The Times. Mr. Huntington is first
vice president fof the company, and it is
understood that his uncle, C. P Hunting
ton wished him to be his successor. The
appointment of a Grand Trunk man to
the position seems to give color to the
idea that the VanderbiIts at least have
a large and powerful Interest in the COM
pany.
Mr.. Hayes is considered one of the lest
railway managers In the country. His
record on the Grand Trunk has been a
fine one. He will reside in San Francisco
and will have complete charge of the OPP

Why Only Democrats VIII BE ON

The story is in circulation in Demo-
cratic circles that the suggestion has been
made to Democratic voters on the Capitol
police force that for their personal in
terest they ought not to exercise their
right of franchise at the approaching cleo
ton. One of these men said to a reporter
for The Times today:
The tip has been given to the few Of
us that are on the force. that it Will
be better for US If we do not go home TO
vote, and although the tip has been
given out in the nature of a suggestion,
1t has been construed by the men to whom
1t has been given as threat, and has de-
TERED several CT US from going home to
register. No circular has been sent to US,
bat the word has been passed along to US
by the Republican members of the force
with the insinIation that ii has come
down from pretty high sources. There is
scarcely a Republican on the force who
will not go home to vote 1t is the few
