PRIVATE RAILROAD SWITCHES.
New Rule Regarding Them Adopted
by Board of Works.

a new plan has been adopted by the
Board of Public Works to be followed
wherever practicable in granting petitions
for private railroad switches. The policy
of the board is TO favor manufacturing
institutions as much as possible, but at
the same time it has to take into consid-
Grafton the dangers resulting from inter-
secting public highways by railroad tracks.
At a conference of the board yesterday it
was decided that provisions should be in
serted in switch ordinances, whenever pos
sible. forbidding the running of cars on
them at any time except between the hours
of Il o'clock at night and o'clock in the
morning. BY this means danger TO pedes-
trians and the usual annoyances will be
avoided.
The petitions which led to the adoption
of the new plan by the board were pre-
scented by the +. G. Atkins saw works and
a new company which has secured the
building of the old Maus brewery. Both
companies desire switches from the Belt
and as each spur will cross important
streets the board feels that the order will
prove beneficial.

As to Shipment of Grain.

The Board of Trade yesterday adopted
the following resolutions and placed copy
in the hands of John S. Lazarus for presen-
tation at the meeting of the Freight As
ISOLATION in Chicago to-day:
Resolved. That the official minimums
on grain exacted by the various railroad
associations are unreasonable. because II
is impossible to load cars of less than 10.
600 pounds capacity to an exact load OF
10 per cent. above marked capacity.
This committee, therefore, petitions that
the minimum for cars under 10000 pounds
capacity be changed TO permit loading
within 10 per cent. below or 10 per cent
above stencil capacity.
Attention is called to the minimums OF
grain products, which are as low as 26,O0o
pounds in cars of any stenciled capacity;
therefore the change suggested is not out
of line or hardship on the carriers
