the dam will be finished. 1t will

Pipe dream about the rate on the new
Railroad to Pittsburg.

There are hundred surveyors Of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad at
work in Monongalia county, 1t is said
and coal agents of that line are also
getting secret options on every field ri
coal in that county. What the Bliti-
timcIe and Ohio means down there is
the matter which puzzles Fairmonters,
says the Times.
1t is believed confidently here that
some hot opposition to the new Wa
bash is-being planned, but what IL is
cannot be learned. 1t is said to be
recognized by all that when the new
line Is completed the Baltimore and
OHIO will DE out of business so far as
through passenger and freight traffic
from Pittsburg to West Virginia is
concerned, and shorter aud hrtter
route will have to be secured.
IL is stated that the fare from Fair
mont to Pjttsburg on the Wabash will
not be more than two dollars.

DR.. Purinton has some weighty
matters to decide in his official capac

dollars conditioned on the decision as
to whether 1T be grass hopper or a
