is THE ROUTE or THE WABASH
ACCORDING TO SPECIAL IN
WHEELING REGISTER.

WASHINGTON, Pa, Dec. S--The
prediction that the Wabash company
will not build its tide water line
through Waynesburg but to the East
through Carmichaels was strengthen
ed when a corps of Wabash engineers
began surveying for road through
the latter place It is in this section
that Wabash agents optioned exten-
sive holdings from J. ". Thompson
of &Uniontown. This line will be an
extension of the West Side Belt line
to Faipnont and will pass through
zolarsville, Washington county and
Greene county. The line
is considered the logical one to Fair
mont from Pittsburg. From the lat
ter city to Morgantown is 65 miles
while from Pittsburg to Waynesburg
is the same distance This means that
a line leaving Waynesburg tothe West
would greatly shorten the rail con
nection between Pittsburg and the
coast. The West Side Belt line it is
said, will be extended from Castle |
shannon and will run through PIT

patched up the differences and spent
the night hilariously and one of them

he was anything but sober when he
appeared at nine o'clock for trial.
These men are the best OF friends
and the trouble last night happened
because both were drinking. They had
a merry little battle. in the Opera
House bar, but Assistant Chief Bar

damage was done, and at considerable

day morning and the other call

time disputing the officers testimony
and generally making himself obnox-

warned him several times and finally.
