Mr. McOrann. lis clestd the contract and
backed It with net only a sound ludgment
and hardy spirit, but with substantial se
curity ler the aiiocessful completion or the
work.
While old railroad in en shook thelr heads

they tlared net lake, llie young Lancastrian
set nut te ergBiiD his ferces, subdlvlde

irleil all along the Ohie, from I'lttsburg te
rhlllliMbiirfi up the Heaver, and all along
the Una there was activity that
startled the sleepy towns through which
the reute lay and a work was lu progress
that attracted the attention of engineer,
railroad btilldera and contractors the country
ever.
A OIlfiAT IIIIIIKIK,
The feature of It which attracted curiosity
and concentratod Interest was tlie great
brldgeacrms the Ohie, lietween Heater and
1'hlIllpstmrK'. The rlver had te bflspuuned
at a helgbt of (Vi feet alxive the waler te ad

enterprise, In brief, was completed lu the re
quired llme and when the read was hamled
ever te Its owners It was In llrst-class condi
tion, ready for trains te run lu entire length.
Hut during Its progress the management
had directed very Important changes from
the original plan. Dilllcultles et securing tlie
projected rights el way, caprlre sometlmea
and at othera noeosssry alterations te catch
tradeand tralllc, had materially changed the
conditions of the contract, lionce srose a
claim for extra work and services which tlie
company that had orderod thein at first
refused te pay. Under the compulsion or
the time Mr. McOrann setlled his account
but reiervetl his right te sue for his claim;
and aubso'iuently was brought the action
tried recently In I'lttsburg foraemo jri.lKul.
Judge Kwing refused te let the case go te tlie
Jury, but the supreme court of l'cnusjlvanla
has overruleil his Judgment or non-null, and
during the latter pirt or this month the
Hoceud trial will take nlace with every pros pres
)vct tint the jury will he mi opportunity
te award te Mr. Mcdranu the lirst measitre
el his iliuuauds.
AS A CllllllUllMAN.
Mr. McOrann is a pillar of NL Mary's

Asa cltlren Mr. McOrann Is onterprising
