throughout and an agreement was
reached in a short time 1t was
shown that the most feasible plan
was that looking towards a tunnel, and
a tunnel was at once agreed upon.
Without argument it was decided that
the Coast Line, the street railway and
the city should divide the expense
that will be incurred in bringing about
the necessary change. These were
the most important points that came
up for consideration, and there was no
difficulty in disposing of them. There
was no effort to block the scheme and
the parties interested seemed anxious
to have the matter settled without
further conferences.
what VIII he Done.
The accompanying diagram. shows
Just what will be done in order to
abolish what is probably the most dan
gerous grade crossing in the city.
There will be a twenty-foot roadway in
the center of the street, beginning at
East Broad street. The double tracks
of the street railway company will oc-
cupy this roadway. On each side of
the roadway will be a five-foot side
walk for pedestrians, making a thirty
foot street running under the Coast
Line tracks. On each side of the tun-
mel, between the retaining wall and
property line, there will be a roadway
Is feet wide.
In this manner all danger of the re-
covery of consequential damages will
be removed, and people living opposite
the retaining walls will be able to get
in and out of their houses without any
inconvenience, or have vehicles driven
TO their front doors as at present. OF
course, these twenty-five-foot roadways
will end at the Coast Line tracks and
It will be necessary for vehicles or
pedestrians to go back to East Broad
street, and go east of the tracks by
way of the tunnel. 1t will not be pos
sible to cross the railroad tracks and
all travel must go by way of the
tunnel.
Four Per Cent. Grade.
1t may be found necessary to elevate
the railroad tracks a trihe. but the
elevation will not be more than six
inches. The distance from the center
of the roadway to the railroad tracks
will be 1917 feet. Beginning at East
Broad street. there will be drop OF
four feet to the 100. until the foot OF
the tunnel is reached.
Then for seventy-five feet there will
be level ground, after which the in.
cline will begin with an elevation Of
three feet to the 100. At the base o.
the tunnel a number of catch basins
win be located, and the water will b,
carried to Bilbo canal through TWEEN

FIRE DEPARTMENT NOTES.

Savannah's firemen are rejoicing over
the reigning cold spell, giving them
an opportunity as it does, to wear
their new overcoats, which arrived In
the city and were distributed among
the members of the several companies
yesterday. The overcoats are made of
fine quality of goods and are suffi-
GENTLY heavy to afford comfort in the
coolest weather. The caps have not
as yet arrived, but are being looked
for every day.
1t is not generally known that a Red
Cross relief system is in use in the
Savannah Fire Department, yet such
is the case, several of the companies
being provided with Red Cross boxes.
which are carried on the engines. These
boxes are in themselves small drug
stores, containing bandages, absorbent
cotton, arnica, spOnges and different
kinds of oils to apply to burns. In
several instances the Red Cross boxes
have come in very handy, giving re-
lief until a fireman's burns can be
dressed by a physician. The idea is
one of Chief Maguire's, and will event
ually be introduced into every com
pany of the department.

 The funeral of Honorius Lestage was held this afternoon from his late residence on Charles street. The re- mains were taken to Canada for in- terment i'll charge of Undertakers Mo riarty and Callahan.
 The funeral of Marie o. Bouffard was held this afternoon from the resi- dence of her parents, MT and Mrs Francis Bouffard of Highland avenue, to St Ann's church. Interment was in Calvary cemetery.
 The outing of the board of public works which was scheduled for to- day didn't come off. There Is no money on hand for new work and un- der these conditions 1t seemed non sensica1 to the board to make a tour of investigation and recommend that certain petitions be granted when there is no likelihood of getting the work done this year.
 A large number of the old hands were on the trolley cars this afternoon and when they stopped on the siding on West Main street almost every body who passed that way stepped on the running board and extended them the hand, all remarking that it was the first time they had put their feet on trolley car since the eleventh of last January. The old hands, Or the new ones, whichever you want to caN them, look just as good as ever, and although they have been off the routes for over half a year manage to get along without any coaching. They can use the lever and punch and call off the names of streets with as much ease as If they hadn't been off day.

At the present time there is little prospect of settlement, although hands employed in other de- partments in the factory wonder why the difference has not been adjusted long ago. Some of them do not know what 1t is all about and say that the trouble is the outcome of stubbornness on the part of somebody. There is lots of work in the department, but 1t seems to be very hard to get people who know anything about it to take hold of it.
