the meat therefrom. No animal has been
brought TO a higher point of excellence
than the sheep. Highly-fed lambs have
been made TO weigh 100 pounds dive weight

facts ii is not surprising that those VINO

shires or Hampshires find it impossible TO

MomeEtous Question That Troubles
the City Engineers Mind.

City Engineer Nelson took on a worn
look yesterday when he was asked how
soon the construction of the "city's SUBJ
way in the alleys" of the city would be
begun. His entire appearance expressed
fatigue. Then he suddenly changed it to
an appearance Of resentment and said:
"Oh, wellr' It sounded like something
else. but it wasn't. maybe.
Inc citys subway" in the alleys" is
now receiving serious discussion amongst
most of the bridge workers in Street Su-
perintendent Evans's department. Said
John Finn Flanagan, who constructed a
subway in the alleys of Jackson Park sew
eral years ago, and has since been re-
garded as an expert: IF the Supreme Court

be perfectly clear that the city may le-
gally build the subways in the alleys.
should say If they were constructed of
IL that proves too expensive some other
material, Of course, will have to be SUBJ
stituted. The subways, however, will be
large enough to admit all who want to
use them. Wouldn't it surprise you If in
ten years the brewing companies would
want to pipe beer through the streets

could they do it? They couldn't, of course.
1 was talking with an eminent freight con-
ductor the other day. would name him,
but Ii isn't necessary--and he said that
way would be a good thing for milk deal
ers."
Some city officials believe and a member
of one of the boards says, in corrobora ton
of each other, that the city can build the
subway just as soon as the courts deter
mine whether they can legally do so or
not, and the available funds are at hand.
II the companies now occupying the alleys
with their mains and pipes will not ae-
quiesce without a contest of course, at
taches of the city engineers office believe,
contest will result If they do acquiesce
there will be no further difficulty. Those
who are acting for the property owners
declare they have rights which must be
respected. so that the legal department
anticipates work in defending the city s
position from the property owners if from
no others.
Prof. Josh NJ. A. Long, whose treatises
on hot air number hundreds of volumes,
makes this report on the "citys sub
ways"
while the alleys are so crowded with
pipes and conduits that there Is not space
for another line of any size, there is am
pie room for those now in the ground.
These companies would not contest with
out a fight to build subways and put in
them the underground construction they
now have i'm the alleys for the benefit OF
companies of the future. they say, espe-
cially when their own benefit would be
so small. =.
."The city officials are hoping the SUI
preme Court will announce a decision that
will give them the right to compel the
companies TO pay for the subways. and
they will not plan any action until the
elevated tracks decision is handed down..
This, the board believes, settles every
thing-at least until A. d. 1885.
