ANOTHER TRACK.-A force OF la
borers went to work this morning to
prepsre bed for another track from
the east end OF the Wilkes street lunpel
to Union street. This track when laid
will be the fifth 10 the triangular space
bounded by Lee, Wolfe. Wilkes and

the turning Of engines. The new work
is being run in southeasterly direct.
ion from the tunnel, and will connect
with the track which hes been laid
to Jones's Point. No notice had been
given by the company OF its intention
10 construct this spur, the fret intima-
ton being force of laborers appearing
on the scene this morning and the
blowing up of Wilkes street east of
Lee. The railway company Owls the
northern half OF Windmill Hill to the
channel bank, and sf.er they cross
Wilkes street are on their own pre-
perty, but there is some dissatisfaction
among residents of the neigbborhood at
the digging up OF the street running
east from Lee street, and they think the
company should be compelled to re-
grade the square and place 1t In the
condition they found it. Otherwise 1t
will be impossible for vehicles. as 1t
will be necessary to make deep cut 10
order to place the rev track on level
with these with which it Is to connect.

AFTER CHURCH LoAFERs.-Rev. Fl
J. Cutler at both services at st. Mary's
Church yesterday morning gave notice
that he was about to inaugurate heroic
measures against young men and boys
who copgregate in the front oil
that church on Sunday, smoking cigar
cites and stareing at people who enter
or leave. He said he had secured the
names of all who were addicted to the
practice, but would not read them out
at present. He gave notice, however,
that 1t was his purpose to procure them
all and should the annoyance be con-
tioued he would let the congregation
kuow from the altar who are the Offend
ere. Father Cutler said worshippers
who sat In the lower pews OF the church
had complained OF the annoyance oc-
cssoned by such conduct, as their at
tention was often distracted from the
services by it. Should this course
prove Intellectual the services of the
police will be brought into requisition
and the offenders prosecuted according
to law. 1t Is thought the same methods
will be adopted by the pastors OF other
churches who suffer from the chronic
annoyance.

THE MACHINIsTS' STRIKE.-The &C :
tion of some OF the machiDists employed
at the Southern Railway shops in this
CITY is still a theme OF much interest
among railroad men. There was an.
other meeting Saturday night at which
forty.two mschinists from other cities
were present. None of the participants
would talk, and it was impossible to
ascertain what further action would be
pursued. The railway officials had
nothing to cay and the mschinists be.
ing equally re,icent it was necessary TO
wait until today for further develop
meDts. At elk o'clock this morning a
number of workmen and others were
around the depot, and it was said six
more machinis;s employed 10 the shops
would RESIN their positions aud join
the ranks of those whose services were
dispensed with Saturday. There lie
some bitterness expressed toward the
officials OF the company for their action
in discbareing the men who attended
Friday nights meeting, but others take
o different view of the procedure, and
think it was the bsst course under the
circumstances. The status OF the men
is much better, as they can be taken
back at any time they were die
charged, ut had they struck, under the
rules of the company they would have
been forever ineligible for positions.
The report that other machinis's
would quit work proved erroneous,
aud everything today has been pro-
crossing quietly. There was but one
OF The employees OF the Midland shops
at Saturday nights meeting. 1t is said
that the unions in other places con-
tributed 81 900 for the purpose Of pre-
clpitating and continuing strike ut
this place.
