THIS WILL Be BIG
RAILROAD CENTRE
Terminus of the New York
Division Will Be Re-
moved Here
PROMINENT OFFICIALS TO COME

Delaware Railroad Headquarters May
Be Removed From Clayton to This
City in the New Office Build.
ing.
There is no doubt but that the ta-ml-
nus of the New York division OF the
pennsylvania Railroad Company will
be removed from Philadelphia to this
city.
Several things have pointed 10 this
change, but nothing definite could be
learned about it until recently. When
the West Philadelphia station was built
lt practically settled the matter i'm the
minds OF many. as there was not spacs
there for any yards. and the already
congested condition at Broad street
station makes IL impossible to take care
of the increasing amount of traffic.
The fact that Wilmington Is almost a
central point between New York and
Washington also had muoh to do with
the proposed change. and the amount
Of yard space here was in its favor, as
was also the terminus Of the Maryland
division.
This will be the means OF bringing
many more railroad employees TO this
city, as all crews will change here. in
addition TO a number of high salaried
officials that will be forced to coma
here. The mail clerks have already
been notified To be ready to remove to
this city, and by that IL Is thought they
will be first TO come here
II will probably be a year before the
system is in working order. as il is the
opinion of local railroad officials that
tina change will not be made before the
trains run over the elevated track. In
deed, it will be impossible to make the
change until the new ronndh0use and
buildings at Todd's Cut are completed
as the present structure Is inadequate
to accommodates the Maryland division
and Delaware road engines, and several
are forced to stand ON the sidings out
side the house.
Another thing the announcement q
the New York division terminus com
ing here settles is that Superintend-
ent r. l. Holiday and his stan OF Del
aware road clerks will be removed from
Clayton TO the new office building here
Much time will be saved by the
changing Of crews and engines on tn,
New York division at this place, as
yard space makes It possible.
When these changes are completed
wilmington will be one Of the most i'm
jortant railroad centres on the Penn
sylvania system. and most of the i'm
portant railroad centres on the Penn
Gated here

THREATENED STRIKE
CHECKS BUILDING
Contractors Refuse to Figure
on Big Work Until Labor
Question Is Settled

on account OF the pi csent unsettled con-
.ditlon Of labor i'm Wilmington, the building
boom has been checked to some extent-
Tho journeymen carpenters and plumbers,
and also several other class of workmen
have asked for an increase and unless
some agreement is reached by Thursday
there promises TO be a big strike.
A prominent real estate agent in speak
ing of the matter this morning said that
# was unfortunate just at this time, as it
win interfere with many new operations
beieng started and viii delay what build
ings are row in the course Of erection.
Contractors. he said. NJ the present thine,
on account of the uncertainty as TO how
the labor troubles arc going 10 turn out,
do not care to figure on any big work. In
however, there is every indication that
work on hundreds Of proposed new houses
will be started in a short time.
The work of tearing down the two dweH-
ings on Market street, on which site Dock
stader's new theatre Is to be erected, is
progressing. BY the end Of this week il Is
expected that all the debris Will be re-
moved and the work Of building will be
started at once. The buildings on the tri-
angle piece Of ground at Delaware avenue
and jefferson streets are also being torn
down to make room for an apartment
house for General J. Parke Postles.
on Saturday Building Inspector Cassidy
issued a permit 10 Edward johnson for
the erection Of five three-story brick
houses on Clayton street, between Thir-
teenth and Founioenth streets at cost
Of $3.50 ior the five buildings.

Near Forsyth street they were ap-
preached by an older girl, who said:
There are ten roughs waiting on
the corner to take those clothes from
you. You'd better come with me"
The children say that the girl stopped
with them at No. 12S Chrystie street,
and said:
Hurry up, now, and give me those
nice dresses and l will save them for
you!
The children, completely out Of their
wits, allowed the older girl to take of.

peared.

More for Roast Beef and
Leg of Lamb

The price of beef has increased three
cents in the pound during the last three
weeks This is in addition TO the ad-
vance Of the winter. 1t applies to. all
kinds Of beef, and housewives and
boarding-house landladies are wonder
ing when the prices are going 10 cease
soaring. The latter are particularly
Demoaning their fate and making dire
threats to advance board to the trem-
bling boarders.
Lamb is also higher, as all meats.
with the exception of pork, which re-
mains the same at present, but accord
ing to the dealers the supply Of hogs
is less than usual, and pork prices
