To pave the National road through

damizeB the thorofare to a point be-
yond the borough limits of West

this stretch of road edual to the Flynn

The board OF trade has taken up
the matter Of paving. instead OF maca-
damizing the road. with the officials
I'm charge and IL is likely the conccs-
sion will be- gtanted II is understood
that the hill this side of West Alex
ander and Main street within abe
I borough limits will be paved to a
width Of twenty-four feet. The prop
erty owners on each side OF Main
street are to pay 81 per running foot.
This Is expected To- equal the expenses
OF paving about four feet and by this
way eight feet of the twenty four will
be paved by the residents owning
/ property on the street. Will. this
proposition has not been fully de-
cid"d upon. II will likely be made 10

WASHINGTON. Sept. 2i.-So far as
is known here. the attention which
the department OF Justice has been
directing 10 the United States Steel
corporation, consists mainly of inves-
ugation. II is not thought in official
circles here that the matter has pro-
crossed TO a point where it can be
stated that the government is about
TO bring suit'fOr the dissolution OF the
corporation.
Solicitor General Lehman has been
in full command of the government :
investigations and ne has repeatedly
declined TO say what their status is.
In view OF the governments atti-
tude toward the International Har-
Vester company, which is TO permit
the company TO rcadiuSt its organiza-
ton TO conform with the recent in
depreciation OF the sherman law. ana
thereby avoid hostile action by the
department Of justice. it is generally
thought here that the steel corpora
lion would have a like opportunity to
change any features To which the gov
eminent objects. II any such exist.
