Tbe Committees Tbat Cbeien-rrrceedlnst In Detail. Wtie ntien Halt., Chicago, June 10 11.30 a. M A strong breeze, that made tbe big stripes of bunting In whleh the ex terior or the auditorium was enveloped fl ,p like tbe sail of a West India merchant man in an October gale, swept ever lake Michigan landward tbla morn ing. Very grateful It proved te the thou sand a el perspiring pitrlets that from an early hour gathered lu front of tbe great building and gazed longingly upon tbe doers through whose portals they bad no open sesame. Inside tbe building all was bustle and confusion. The war concert of last night had Interrupted tbe labors of tbe workmen and a geed deal In tbe way of decorating remained te be done at day break. But the small army of mechanics worked with a will and everything but tbe arrangement and numbering of tbe preas seats wa9 completed by 10 o'clock. Unfor tunately the latter, tue really most Import Impert ant work, bad been left until tbe hut moment, and greatly te their dismay the legion el correspondents wero forced te wait outside of the bar r lei s and permitted te Oil the air with maledlotlens upon the management until few mlnutss of the time for railing the convention toerdor. The delegates themselves were slew In assembling and the samn might be said of the visitors. Between the police and tbe plethora cf assistant sergeants at arms and ether subordinate functionaries as much red tape was brought into use as if the for fer for tunate holders et tickets were about te enter Inte the kingdom of heaven. Once within tbe building, bowevor, indignation was quickly changed Inte exclamations of delight. It wan like a transformation from a barren plalu Inte lalry land, with myri ads of eloctrle Jets In arches, In stars and diamonds, In sphere, lu almost every con ceivable deilgn el art, with Its banner butting streamers et a thousand hues, the Immense interior was a syuipheny of color, a magnltlcent spoctacle of the art decora decera tlva. The chairman's platform was simply a floral bower. Nothing could be seen of the front of the desk upon whleh 8 years age descended the gavel that announced tbe nomination of James A. Gaifleld and tour years later the eucesea of James Q. Blaine. It waa one huge bank of roses, Jacqueminet, Marecbal Neile, LyaclLthcs, peonies, violets and llllles and It sheds its delicate perfumes far anil wide. Tboentlre floral work was a trlbute te the convention from Manager Fred Llmeler, of tbe Floral Olen company, and It has never been sur passed, Te the right and left the American fligwas patterned In floral shields while en the top of either end hung two huge and artistically arranged bouquets attached te arches of smllax which iu turn connected with the American fligs which entwined the end pillar, and combined te make tbe stand an arcadian bower. Directly bencath the arch were pictures et Generals Legan and Grant wreathed In Immertelles whlle from the Urst balcony portraits et all the Republican presidents from Washington te Arthur looked down upon the delegates. rilE DELKClATia TARDY. The New Yerk, Michigan and Massachu setts delegations, which bad been honored with the front seats directly facing tbe speaker's stand, were among the first te arrive, but very little enthusiasm greeted their nppearance. Twelve o'clock, at which Leur, be said Chairman Jenes yesterday, the conventieu would be promptly called te order, less than half the delegates were In their seatf, while tbe chairs In tbe balconies allotted te guests were less than one third illled. In the next five minutes the Western and Northwest ern delegates came In rapidly, but tbe Southern men, ospeelally theso from Ten Ten nessee, tbe Carolina? and Mississippi still lagged and left a big hole in the seating Bpace te the left of the chair. The Vir ginians, tee, were considerably late, and many opera Rlases wero vainly lovelcd In quest el the diminutive Mahene and the doughty Wise, who head the rival delegations. Oheuncey Depew, with a genial smile everspreadlughls countenance, glided in unobserved ami se did Gov. Feraker. In f act the crowd either failed te recegnlzs distinguished men who made their appearance or the weather was tee warm ter enlhuslaam te assert ltself se early In the day. At 25 min uses past 12 o'clock that grizzled veteran and liret candidate et the Hepubll. ean party for president, Gen. Jehn C. Fro Fre Fro ment, was escorted te the platfeim by a aergeunt-at-arms, and as he caught the eye of tbe fleer and gallerles he wai honored with the first great burst of applause that bad been given se far during the morning. Bythotime that Wise, and Mabene came In tbe convention was a sea of waving tans and tbey lest tbe recoptlen wbteh might bave fallen te thorn had they observed Ihe rules of punctuality. THIS CONVENTION CALLUII TO OKI) HI, Half pest twelve and the hand, galvan ized into llfe by the frantic etlerta which some of the a&sis'ant secretaries had for some time been making te attract Its atten tion, struck up a tune, but a sign from Chairman Jenes at 12.3.1 brought it te a full ateD and tbe convention was called te order. Then Rev. Frank W. Ounsalaus was Intro duced te lead the convention in prayer. Blessings wero asked for the leaders of the party and ler these ec:upylng high places jn the administration. " We Invoke the blessing," said tbe reverend gentleman, it te-day upon that great soldier, the cap tain of our armie, who lles se near te deitli. Oh, Lord I touch him tenderly by Thy band, Comfert him by Tby spirit and rastore him te the nation that loves him, with all hope." This reference te General Sheridan was followed by a burst of ap- platrse which Jirred upon tbe preacher's sense of propriety as evldenced by the grave expression which stele ever bis feature as tbe cheering progressed. Then the eall for ibe convention was resd In artuglngtene Jey Secretary Fcesenden, and the reference te tbe Urltl, te the protection of American labor, te tbe accuiuulatlen of lbs surplus, (he demand for a free, honest ballet and fair count and tbe question of tbeadmlislen of the territories were all loudly cheered, specially that relating te tbe tariff. Th reading concluded, Chairman Jenes read en address. Ue spoke te low that from the tart there were cries of "leader,' even from these In front benches. When be poke of success for tbe Republican party end thank te President Cleveland and hie Southern allies tbey bad thrown off their dligulse and declared themselves ad vocates of free trade. Tbe mere he reed the weaker grew hi voleo, until the cenven tien get into a hum et conversation and tbe effort of the chairman waa little better than dumb show addressed te the Incense breathing bouquets. Be was understood te allude te tbe record of Great Britain en pro tection and free trade, and te trace Ihe growth of the tariff reform movement or et the " tariff conspirators " from the days of Jacksen, en through the time et Buchanan, a oeplona quotation being made from a r-peeeh onee made by the latter. Then he referred te the achieve ments et the Republican party ; hew It had abolished slavery and elevated the people. He declared that tbe country did net want te go back te tbe old Democratic days of sloth and Ignorance. The country still had the benefit of the lawn passed by the Repub lican party and Its solid majority In the Senate te protect the Interests of the peeple. At this juncture Hen. Jehn M. Thursten, of Nebraska, who was yesterday chosen by the national committee as temporary chair man, had moved up te the right of Mr. Jenes and the latter lest no time In intro ducing his successor. But no sooner had tbe spectacled Nebraskan boned In re sponse te tbe cheer of welcome than a white headed, bread shouldered delegate was en hlsfeetln tbe Kansas section. In loud tones he announced tbLt Kansas bad a can didate of Its own for temporary chairman. Mr, Jenes responded rather testily that the gentleman befere them was the temporary chairman. But the Kansas man was net te be suppressed se easily and said that his colleagues declined te be re sponsible for tbe action of tbe national committee (hisses) which it regarded as a great mistake and it demanded a call et the roll In order that it might place In nomination Hen. William Warner of Missouri. " At this there were both applause and hisses, but Thursten with out noticing the motion began te deliver bis address, thus establishing the precedent that the choice of a national committee for temporary cillcers need net have been rati fied by tbe convention. The Kansas man kept upon bis feet, however, until he said that this waa net one of his fertunate days, and then be slowly and reluctantly re sumed bis Beat Temporary Chairman Thursten spoke as fellows : JUDOK TflUBSTON'S SfKELII. IbeTemperary Chairman Says the Democrat Mobbed HI. Far'y of a Victory Ileneatly and Fairly Wen, Gentlkmen op thk Convention. 1 am deeply sensible of tbe distinguished honor you have conferred upon me as the presiding officer of your temporary organ 1 1 zitieD. 1 am also mindful et the grave re sponsibilities of tbe position, and if they are auccesstully met it will be due te the con tinuance et your generous favor and the bestowal of your loyal assistance." I have no words In which te litttngly express my heartfelt appreciation et your confidence. I thank you, gentlemen, net for myself alone, but for that great and growing West whleh never disappoints the expectations of tbe Republican party. I ceme from a state whose vast domain has been largely appropriated by the sur viving veterans et the army of tbe republle under tbe beneficent previsions of the homestead and preemption laws enacted by a Republican Congress and true te the heroic recollection et the past the home heme home steaderB of tbe West still march en under the banner et Republicanism. In victory and defeat, In sunahlne and storm, In pros perity and adversity this mighty West re tains tbe courage of Its convictions, and holds that devotion te principle though It brings defeat, is better than success achieved by broken vows and political dishonor. We are met in national convention for delib eration aud conference. Tte Republle n party of the United Stales relies upon tbe wisdom of its assembled delegates for such action as will insure success. If we are prepared te honestly and fairly meet tbe supreme Issues of tbe hour with a clear, fearless and ringing declaration of princi ples and te nominate a ticket whlca will commend itself te the leja'ty aud in telligence of the country we can grandly win. We enter upon tbe proceedings of this convention pre pared te sacrifice Individual judgment te the wisdom et the majority, and te lay down personal preferences en tbe altar of party success. When our candi dates are chosen we will all join with heart and soul in the grand chorus et rejoicing, and tbe rainbow of our harmony shall glve certain premise el the glo ries of a victorious morning In November, When tbe Democratic party at tbe close of tbe last presidential election robbed us of a viotery honestly and fairly wen, we patiently waited for the eertaln coming et the Justlce of the years. We hoped ana uenevea mai ikxs weuia rigni the great national wrong of IbSI. Right It net only for the Republican party, but also for the grand and glorious candidates whose namea wero the Inspiration of that wonder ful campaign. The infinite wisdom et an all-wise Providence bad otherwise decreed. TRIBUTE TO 11I.AINE AND L0QAN. One of theni.tbocltlzenseldlor.tbo warrior statenman, tbe black eagle of Illinois, bas been summoned by tbe Silent Mtssoegi r te report te bis old commander beyond the river. But although Jehn A. Legan Is dead in the body, yet he lives again In the Illuminated pages of his coun try's most splendid history; lives In the grateful love of a free pwjle whose union be be gallantly fought te preserve ; llves In the blewings of a down trodden race, whose freedom he se man fully struggled te achieve ; lives In the future Beng and story of a here worship ping world ; and along the highway of the nation's glory side by slde with old Jehn Brown, Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant, his soul gees marching en. The ether, that gallant leader, tbe chevalier of American pentics, me giery or rtepuuu canlam and tbe nightmare et Democrats, our Henry et Navarre, Is necking In foreign travel the long needed re laxation and rest from tbe bur dens et public life and service. With the sublime magnanimity of this Incem parable greatness he dsb dented us the in finite pleasure of supporting him In this convention. Desiring, above all things, party harmony and succsbh, he has stepped from tbe certain ladderef his own laudable ambition that some ether man may climb te pewer. As his true friends, we cannot, dare net commit the political crime of dis obedience te bis expressed will. We can net place him at tbe head of the ticket, bat we may make blm oemmander-ln chief at the head of tbe forces In the field, where he will be Invincible. And though James O. Blaine may net be our president, jet hs remains our un un un orewned king, wielding tbe baton el acknowledged leadership, supreme in the allegiance of his devoted followers, hencrad and respected by all honest and loyal men, tbe greatestllvlng American and tbe worthy object of our undying love. But tbe Ra publican party la net left without great men te place upon Its ticket. We have that honest, able and experienced financier, statesman and senater from Ohie, and bis no less distinguished colleagues from Iowa, Indiana, Michigan and Wisconsin present te us gallant soldiers, while New Yerk, New Jersey, Kansas, Connecticut, and ether states cllar worthy and favorite sons. I'rem this splendid galaxy et political stars we cannot obeose amiss. The Republican party points with pride te tbe great achievements of Its put and offers as an earnest et Its future faithful unbroken record et services performed for troedem, union and national prosperity, THE PARTY OF PROTECTION. It la preeminently the party el protection. It was corn et the Irrepressible desire te protect the slave from the lash et the mas'er and te save our civilisatien from the blight ing curie of Its crime agalrrt humanity, it performed tbe sacred mission of protecting the republle from secession and disunion and In the latter time It ueceead In protect ing the credit and enrrency of the nation from repudiation and in 11 at le a. Its plat form, epitomized, stands for tbe protection or popular government en the American continent. Stands for the protection of 11 governmental and International rlgbfa from restriction or Invasion. Stands for the protection of the life, liberty ad prespeil y of tbe lndivlduil. Stands ter tbe protection of all tbe Immunities and privileges or American elttzsnshlp. Stands for the protection of tbe ballet box from the erlmea of Intimidation, robbery and substi tution. Stands for the protection of American oemmero, American man nfacture and American agriculture from destructive ferelun comnetltlen. Stands for tbe protection et home Inven tion, home skill and home labor against the free trade heresies, which would pauperlre and degrade them all. Standi for tbe protection of tbe people from the unjust and oppressive exaction and combi nation of aggregated capital and corporate power. Stands also for tbe protection of both capital and corporation from confisca tion and mob violence and above all stands for the protection of the sanetltv and hapn. nessefthe American home. It welcomes te our shores the downtrodden and op pressed or every land, but It Insists tbat the Inestimable blessing of American cltlzon cltlzen hip, purchased with tbe prleelcai bleed of our heroes and martyrs, shall be extended te these only who are In tell sympathy and acoerd with Ibe fundamental principles of our government and who will loyally sup port the sacred prevision of the constitution of tbe United States. And it holds that Congress has the power te save American civilization and morality from tbe leprosy et Asiatic paganism, degradation and oon eon oen taglon. it maintains that the nation abeuld extend the benefits of free government te slltrus levers of liberty, but ltdemanda that tbe law of tbe land shall be a shield only te these who obey It and that for tbe Anarchist, tbe Communist and the crimi nal, American Justice has nothing te offer but the sword. DENOUNCES THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, The reconstructed nomecracy baa new been in power nearly four years. Its ad ministration has been most satisfactory te these who held office under It. Its loy alty has received the approval of every enemy of the government. The courage et Its foreign policy has amused tbe great pewers and pleased every oeward. Ha civil service has been se thoroughly re formed as te delight Mr. Ulgglns. Its Jus Jus tlee te tbe disabled soldiers has wen golden opinions from theso who gave them their wounds. Its financial management baa been safe because of its inability te destroy the resulting prosperity of Republican leg. lslatlen. And its unparalleled Btraddle of the tariff question has been a cause of won wen won dermenttu "gods and men." It Is strong in the imbecllitv of "Innennun desuetude" and desorves te live as a reminiscence of premises forgotten and pledges unre deemed. There are these in this land who seem te believe that the mission or the Republican party Is at an end. That the emancipation proclamation, Appomattox and tbe consti tutional amendments are at once tbe monu ments of Us glory and the gravestones et Its demise. But the work of tbe Republican party will n6ver be dene until every Ameilcan citizen enters into bis unquestioned In heritance of liberty, equal rlitbts and jus tice ; until representation in Congress Is based upon votes falrlv ceunted: until ade. quale prevision has been made ter tbe neipiessneBs and old age of the disabled veterans and widows or orphans of their dead comrades ; until these poiielis of gov ernment whleh Insure national and indi vidual prosperity are firmly established and until lotrletlsui and ievalty are the only qualification!-, except fitness for offi cial position in th9 service et tbe republic. There are these in tbe land who Insist that the Republican party ket p j alive the old 1 1 ac e sectional fueling and that.lt refuses te let " the dead past bnry Its dead." The Re publican party lenRBand prays for the com ing of the mlllenlum et its hope, when in spirit and In truth Masen and Dixen's line will be blotted forever. When fraternal lines and oemmon Interests unite as usual ; when the whole people are found rejoicing tegether that the Inherited Institution of human slavery was destroyed by the Jus tice of Ged ; glad tegether that the holy bends of union could net be severed ; hope ful together for a magnificent national des tiny ; loyal together te a common oeuntry and Its unconquered flag. But when that glad time comes tbe blaek and white must march side by slde in the bread sun shine et safety and lie down te untroubled shadows et piotected bemrs. Tbe Repub lican party turns te tbe New Seuth with wide open arms. It offers loyal assistance in the development et Its agriculture, tbe opening et Its mines, the building up of its manufactories. It propeaos te break down the barriers of unpleasant memories with the hope of a new prosperity. Tin: tarh'p the issue. The great distinctive issue of tbe present campaign is the issue of the tariff. Te tbe support et protective tarld tbere will rise up an overwhelming army of Intelligent, thoughtful and practical men and tbe East and tbe West, tbe North and tbe Seuth will join hands together te forever extermi nate in thla republle tbe pernicious dectriue ei rree iraue. as we gather here we remem ber that ntber great convention held In this city In 1SG0. We remembered bow It was Inspired with tbe wisdom and courage te select that great man of tbe people, that Moses who led us through the parted waters or the sea, past the wilderness of battle, ever the Jerdan of safety into tbe promlsed land. In 1881 we were driven back into the wlldernts., again Ged gUes us the wisdom te And another Moses who can lilt our wandering te four years Instead of forty. The mighty past Is wlthus te-day. It thin us with the same spirit of freedem, patriotism and devo tion which breathed Inte the oemmon dust et erdiuary humanity tbe sublime Inspira tion of hore'c deeds. Let us read Its lessen rightly and hr Id Its precepts dear. When Rebert Bruce, klui: et Soetland, fay upon bia dying bed be requested that his heart should be taken from his Inanimate body and borne by knightly bauds te the Savloui'dsepulehra Afier his death James, earl et Douglae, undertook tbe sacred mis sion and with tbe heart encasad in a golden caiket set upon his pilgrimage te the Hely Land. On thelr way thither himself and comrades we te set upon by a grtet bostet million whitiuih inougnturyieugbt with all the valor of mortal men they were borne backward by sheer force of numbers and their overthrew seemed certain, when Djuglas, drawing from bis besom tbe priceless casket cast It far out Inte tbe midst ei me oncoming nest and erled out " Lead en, heart of Bruce, we will fellow thee." And the knight of Soetland, never dofeated whlle following rucf.pusbed forward and wen the day. Let this convention lled a Diuglaai for our Bruce, He will take tbe soul or our greater leader Inte the gelden casket of his love aud with It lead uh en te certain and Bplendld victory. A TORRENT Ol' AI'l'LAUSK OVER lir.AINE. Frequent applause greeted the opening sentences et the chairman's speech, butTt swelled Inte a torrent when be reaohed his roierence te uiaine and Chevaller of Amer ican pentics end nightmare of the Demo cracy caused the convention te applaud again and again, But even thli was noth neth Ing as compared with the demonstration which both galleries and fleer received the declaration that tbe party cannot and must net commit the political crime of dlsobedl dlsebedl dlsobedl ence;te his will. Thin evoked cheers whleh were several times repealed and accompa nied by waving of flags and ether tokens et exuberancc. Whoa the dir. ferent candidates were named by tbe speaker, Hhermau and Allisen received me weigm ei applause, uut it was noticed that he refrained from mentioning the name of the soldier Judge of IUInele, Whea he classed tbeAnareblst with tbe criminal there wero expressions of spplause, but when he nald that tbe administration bad ' for four years performed its duties with satisfaction " the audience sat dumb and surprised until he added "te Us officeholders," The speaker'! voice penetrated every nook and oerner et tbe hall, his attitude was erect, his gestures appropriate, and be deserved In fnll meas ure the prolonged applause which came from tbe vast audience when the closing word! fell from hie lips. Silence restored the rest etthe roll of the temporary effleers was reed, leading off with C. F, Frlsby, et Michigan, Michael Rtekard, Wisconsin, nd W. M. Hewell, Tennessee, as secretar ies. Thla also failed te be submitted te the convention for ratification but no objection was made te this course. "Mr. Chairman," said ex-Congressman Herr Just at that mement the chairman pushed an electric- button and the band atruek np medley of airs and Mr. Ueir stepped back Inte his seat. The convention kept time with Its feet te "Yankee Deedle," "Marching Through Georgia." Finally bursting into song It applauded in reverent manner when the strains et "Amerlea" broke upon tbe air and grew vocal again when the national hymn gave way te the "Star Spangled Banner." When the musle had ceased Mr. Herr waa reoegnlzsd. He wanted In behalf of the Michigan delega tion te present te the convention gavel made of the weed from the oak under which the Republican f a ty waa organized, July G, 1861, In Jacksen, Mleh. In accept. Ing the gavel Mr. Thursten said he would at once proceed te pound the daylights out of the Democratic party. Mr. Reet, of Ark,, moved that the report en the temporary olllcera be approved, but the chair stated that this bad already been done by the absenoe et objections when the report wee presented. The gray-beardad dele gate from Kansaa objected te this conclu sion and Reet withdrew his motion, Judge Meedy, of Dakota, moved te glve Dakota ten delegates. He was Informed by the chair that the national committee had already cenceded what waa asked for. On the motion el Gen. Bingham, et Pennsylva nia, the rules of tbe Heuse of Representa tives were adopted, and en the motion of a delegate from Kansas the following res olution of sympathy wlthUen. Sheridan was adopted by standing vote amid hearty cheers: "The delegates te the Republican national convention representing the survi ving comrades of tbe distinguished soldier nd general of the army.l'hlllpli. Sheridan, and representing also the living principles for whleh he se gallantly fought and triumphed during the great era of tbe war send him sincere congratulations en the prospects et his recovery and hepe that he Is spared for many years." (Applause ) A resolution of number of old soldiers new In the city that tbey be allowed 200 tickets of admission te tbe conven tion te be distributed by the G. A. R,, committee was presented by delegate Lewis et Kentucky. The chair ruled, tbat the resolution would go te the com mlttee en resolutions without debate, but Lewis urged tthat the rnles be suspended and tbe request be adopted. Mr. Talt, of Seuth Carolina, made vigorous speech In favor et the suspension of the rules. The Democratic party, he said, was also en receid as against tbe sol dier, and tbe Republican party could net aflerd te aet meaury In tbe matter. Mr. Butlerwerth, el Ohie, asked tbat the matter be left te the national committee with Instructions te see tbat the matter be adjusted and finally It was se referred. This much accomplished. Cot.

AAUHUAD'' MARKS ItKl'I.V Te the Open Letter of Mr. Hon.len en Ilia Bats Hatliet Ballresd Contrevsrsy, Kt)3. lNTRI.UOENCKR I had DOt tllO least Intention et being drawn Inte news paper discussion when I wrete the artlele you kindly published en the lMh Inst But there are some ststemenls In Mr. Housten's letter te whleh I should like te reply as briefly as possible. Mr. Housten state that "no man had any understanding wfth him as te where, when or hew the committee should report." Regarding thla I would say that at the meeting referred te It waa tbe understand ing et ether gentlemen preaent, as well as myself, that the oemmtttoo would net take any aotlen, regarding the proposed railroad te Bare Harber, until the coat of right et way had been ascertained and reported. Mr. Housten says, referring tothealleged difficulties connected with the enterprise, that the Inquiry suggests Itself, " did they wish this difficulty kept hldden until after the people had subscribed their money?' Te say that this statement Is uncalled for and unjurt la putting It In the mildest pos sible terms. If Mr. Housten knows any thing at all about this enterprise, or the parties connected with It, he knows that everything In connection with It bas been open and above beard. And full and free Information en all points concerning the proposed railroad has been eheerfully given te all parties desiring It Admitting tbat Mr. Housten is In favor of the project he seems te be se entirely taken up with tbe miner details that he losea sight or the main question, whleb, as 1 leek at the matter, is about as fellows : Would a rail road from Lancaster te Safe Harber be a benefit te tbe business Interests of Lancas ter city and oeunty ? It se, should the rail road committee recommend the enterprise te the Beard of Trade T It has never occurred te the parties Inter ested In the building et this read that the station of the Pennsylvania railroad at the Safe Harber end of the line, being en the oppeelto side of the creek, was an Insur mountable obstaelo In the way of tbe success of the new read. I have been In formed tbat the Qnarryvllle ratlresd Is one of the host paying branches In the Reading system. Yet they have no connection whateverwlth the Pennsylvania railroad at either end of thelr line. And at thelr seuthern terminus have no connection and In event et the possibility of the Pennsylvania Railroad company net being willing te make n satisfactory arrangoment with the proposed read, about tbe only quostleci Involved would be a transfer from ene station te the ether, which Is matter of every day occur eccur ence In the railroad towns throughout the oeuntry, with the exception of the cities, whero the dlllorent railroads unlte In union depot And, se far as my knowledge gees, theso cxoeptlons are "tow and far bo be bo tween." Regarding the matter of route, I would say that the parties interested In the pro posed railroad have spent oeusldorable amount et time and money In going evor the aeveral routes between Lancaster and Safe Harber and believe that the line of the present survey, with perhaps few slight changes, lathe cheapest, most practical and would be the bast paying line upon which the read could be built. At the same time tbey would willingly adept any practical snggestlena en change of route tbat would Insure cheaper construction and better line. Regarding the concluding paragraph or Mr. Housten's letter, I would merely say that his remarks about " Insinuations " and "lying" I regard as beneath the dig nity et the chairman of commltteo et tbe Lancaster Beard of Trade and unworthy of the wrtter'e notice.
