ROAD IS SEEKING
A NEW FRANCHISE
Richmond and Henrico Railway
Co. Wants to Change Route
Into Fulton.

A new franchise being sought by
the Richmond and Henrico Railway
Company that it may run Its lines
into Fulton over q different route from
that originally planned will be con-
sidered by a subcommittee on streets
Wednesday evening shortly before the
regular street committee conyenes.
The old route Of the company ran
from Thirty-first and Marshall streets
around Chimborazo Park and into
Fulton. The new route runs out Mar
shall street to Thirty-f1fth street,
thence through private property In
an eastern and southern direction to
the Government road at a point west
Of the ravine In that thoroughfare.
Crossing the Government road, the
line proceeds by treste across Gil
lies creek and the flats along that
creek to Spring street. which thor
oughfare 1t follows into Fulton. At
Spring and Nicholson streets in Full
ton the line makes a loop. taking in
a large part Of the suburb.
The matter was brought before the
afternoon, when the members met
at Thirty-fourth and Marshall streets
and inspected the route.
1t will be further considered We'd
nesday night, when City Attorney
Pollard and City Engineer Boiling
will probably express their ideas re-
garding the proposed change.
1t is regarded as probable that the
subcommittee will finally recommend
that the change in route be sane

reasons why ii was administered.
The return of General Barry. who
is in command of the academy, has
failed To alleviate the practical insub-
ordination that now exists. He at
once approved of the action of Com
mandant Sibley in placing the entire
study body under arrest. The court
yesterday examined thirty more
cadets and to-day was still summon
ing them.
The court is now concentrating It's
efforts on getting the names of those
who instigated the silence" To meet
this, il is declared the cadets have
adopted a uniform policy of testi
mony, They tell the court that when
the silence" was administered, they
merely saw several other cadets doing
1t. and so Joined In the treatment
themselves Not one of the cadets
has admitted premeditated conspiracy.
From the cadets point of view.
the most serious result of their arrest
is the fact that confinement TO bar

calling off, in all probability. of the
game scheduled Saturday with the
