one stepped out from behind a tele-
phone pole after he had just passed

could not explain the assault clearly
because of his limited knowledge OF
the English language but from his

Road
COMING THIS WAY


Says the Pfttsburg Post: That
the Deepwater & Tidewater Railroad
Company VIM connect with the pro-
posed west Virginia Connecting rail-
road at Belington. ". Va. thus
bringing the Tidewater line within
a comparatively short distance from
this city, is Indicated by the fact
that the engineers are now at work
on the connecting link at Elkins. w.
Va. The main line Q fthe Deep
water & Tidewater passes south Of
Elkins, and surveys are now being
made to that city from the main
line. This link Win be extended to
Belington, where connection win be
made with the West Virginia Con-
Meeting line, as forecasted some
time ago.
It was reported IN railroad CIR
cles yesterday that persons back of
the Deepwater & Tidewater had
made a proposition to the West vir-
ginia Connecting Railroad Company
to take over the holdings Of this
company. D. F. Maroney, presi-
dent of the West Virginia Connect
ing, declined to discuss the matter
further than to say the line would
be built by the original company.
President Maroney admitted that
there is a possibility Of the line be-
ing sold
AS published in the Post some
months ago, the West Virginia Con-
meeting lire win extend from Being
ton to Rogersville. near waynesburg.
II developed yesterday that the line
will not end there. and that engineers
are now considering plans for an
extension to the Ohio river. BY
this route the Deepwater & Tide
water would not only gain an en-
trance to the Pittsburg district. but
would have line from the seaboard
through rich mining country and
connecting some Of the more I'M
portant tonnage centers with the
lake ports.
All field work of the West Virginia
Connecting line has been completed.
Work is to be started early next
spring and bids viii probably be
asked in a short time. President
Maroney said yesterday that he was
not IN position to discuss plans
regarding the future of the line. It
was reported some time ago that the
Tidewater people were planning .
connection with the Belington-
RogersvilIe line, but no official ac-
ton was taken until recently. It
was said yesterday that all surveys
for the connecting link through
Elkins would. be completed within
the next month. The Tidewater will
also have connections with the Coal
& Coke railroad and the Wabash at
Elkins.
