GREAT RAILROAD CHANGE
Wilmington VIII be Benefited by the
Prospective lmprovement

Wilmington Will be Benefited by the
Prospective Improvement
Connected with the subject of elevat-
ing the tracks of the Pennsylvania
railroad through this city, the directors
of the road have in mind the fact
THAT, should the tracks be elevated. THAT
much time would be saved by trains
running between New York and Wash
ing, inasmudh as grade crossings
would be avoided.
AS this city is about centrally To-
Gated between Washington and New
York, the management Of the road com
template making this city the end Of
the New York division Of the Pennsyl-
.vania railroad thereby bringing o
number of trainmen wlho now live in
Philadelphia to reside in Wilmington.
In the event Of Wilmington being
made the end OF the division, all en-
lgine crews Will be changed here, and
las about fifty trains pass through this
lcity each way daily it will be neces-
lsary for all crews to reside here.
