Settlement Gossip.
Speculation as to the probable set
tlcment of the strike is active in all
circles, and among business men and
manufacturers generally the CONSENSUS
of opinion is that the combine officials
and Anlalgamaled otliriaIs will get to-
gether before long and adjust the dif-
ferences. Some Of the manufacturers
were emphatic in stating that it would
be arranged within 48 hours, yet they
could give no positive information or
any movement on foot to start nego-
tiations.

HUMP" YARDS AT EDGE MOOR

Since the Street and Sewer Department
yesterday gave the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company the right to build an over
head track through this city, discussion
has been rife as to what buildings in this
city will be moved or RACED Reports
have been current that the buildings in
Front street between the French street
station and the West Yard would be torn
down as also would Il portion of the
Pusey and Jones Company shops Plans
for the new system do not necesstate
such, however, and with the exception Of
a few old buildings on Water street, only
properties belonging to the company viii
be- effected.
Beginning at the West Yard the new
structure will follow the surface lines nm
til the French street station is reached.
Here the overhead road Will make an
easy curve and will pass through where
the round house now stands thence pro
ceeding in direct line through the pres
ent sites of the yardmaster's office, the
passenger and freight repair shops and
the company's sawmill mt Third and
Church streets. From the latter named
point the line swerves but little to Todd's
cut, which will be the principal scene of
operations for months to come.
Here work ON the largest and the best
equipped classification yards in the East
ern States already has begun.
The yards will be known as Il ''hump
yard. AT which il will be possible 10
classify from 2.000 to 1000 cars daily with
comparative ease. Trains will be- run in
on the receiving tracks and on reaching
the top Of the incline on "hump" in the
centre Of the yard, will pass over an Inn
proved weighing machine. Here they
Will be cut in iiyes ana he run down the
incline on their respective tracks.
IN the rear of the massive transfer sta
tion will be erected the roundhouse ana
the repair shops with headquarters for
the shifting engines. The new yards will
bc lighted by electricity and fitted with
every modern appliance.
Work on the freight yards, the repair
shops and rOundhouse will be carried on
lat the same time. and work on the build
4 lngs will begin as soon as contracts can be
awarded. preparations for which are be-
ing made already.
The freight station at Fourth and Pine
streets will be entirely rebuilt and To-
gether with the sheds, will extend from
its present location to the railroad. Be
tween the yardmaster's office and th,
roundhouse the surface road will be used
as freight discharging tracks.
As soon as the new shops and round
house have been finished the work of raz-
ing the old ones will begin. With the
completion of this work, operations on
the overhead system Immediately will
commence.
The location Of the new passenger sta
tion has not been settled finally but local
railroad men are of the opinion that the
present location will be retained. The
new station will be great improvement
over the present one, however, with wait
ing rooms, etc, upstairs.

section. Early yesterday morning Mrs.
James =. X. Hoffman. Of Leesburg,

making an investigation found a stylishly
dressed man, about 25 years old, lying on
the floor. The other members of the
household We're aroused and when they
addressed the strange visitor he jumped
quickly to his feet, placed his arm across
his face and very nervOusly began to
make apologies. He told pitiful story
Of being driven from an oyster schooner
at Maurice river, and said he was on his
way to Millville. Becoming tired and
fearing he would freeze to death, he said,
he was compelled to break in the house.
He then began to weep, but during the
entire time kept his arm over his face to
hide his features.
The aged couple invited the young man
TO remain until breakfast and when they
adjourned to another room the stranger
made dash out Of the door, The whole
village soon learned Of the affair and a
search was made through the surround
ing country, but no trace Of the young
