STEEL TRACK ROAD
ADINGTON TURNPIKE COMPANY
SO DECIDED YESTERDAY.
This Conclusion Wits Reached After
n Confetenco with Hon. Mtu-tln
Dodge, Director of tho United
States Durcau of Rood Inquiry.
Some of tho Details of tho Road
Construction Interview with Mr.
Dodge Rclatlvo to the Alms of the
Rond Inquhy Bureau.
Hon. Mitt tin Dodge, ot Cleveland, di
rector of the Fulled States 'nuteau ot
itoad Inquiry, inn up ftom Washing
ton yesterday to confer with the direc
tors of tho Ablngton Turnpike and
Plunk Iloud company lelatlvc to the
adoption ot his steel tiack Idea In
the improvement of their road.
A. H, Dunning, who was scciotary tif
tho Bond roads parliament at the Oma
ha tioltlon, over which Mr. Dodge
presided, ami who is 1111 etithwlast ov
er the new scheme of road Imlltllim.
met .Mr. Dodge upon his ut rival heto
at l.rJ o'clock p. in., and nccompanletl
him to the eonfeionco with the turn
pike company, which was held In the
onice ol Hon. W. W. Watson in the
Traders' bank building.
The lesult of the conference was
a decision on the pint of tho turnpike
people to constiuet .1 shott piece of
steel loadwny after Mr. Dndse's plans1
by way ot experiment. If actual us
age docs not develop latent defect'!,
that cannnot be leadily overcome, the
whole tuinpik" will bo Improved with
the -lccl tiucks.
COST OF STKKL IIOAD.
The company now spends over $i'00
a ear In lopalis of each mile ot llu
load. The steel load can bo built ten
about X4.000 a mile and Is piacticall."
lndestiuc tabl.. When tho company
getH iciuly to lay the toad, the govet n
inunt Mr. Dodfie says, will furnish
guitls an evpeit engineer to oveisce
the work. This will be the llrst load
of this kind to be constructed. There
was a short one at tho Omaha expos
ition, but that was not put to a practi
cal left, being simply for exhibition
purposes. Theie Is another steel road
In Ohio but it differs from the one to
b constnictcd heic In that Is has out
side Uanges, which have proven virtu
ally a fatal defect.
The load to be built heic will em-biae-e
all the latest Ideas In this ftyle
of road-making. Its design was de
sctlbed at length by Mr. DunnlnB In
an address befote the Iward of tiade
at the Inst meeting of that body. Hrlef
lv, it Is a railroad with rails ten in
ches wide, bavins n Hat surface with
llaiiiies on the inner side to keep the
wheels of the chicle lrorn lunnliip off
On the bottom sides of the rails aie
other llanges, which aie imbedded In
the earth, pteferably In toncteto No
does ties or sttlngers ate requited.
The th'h-plutes (nntie-ctlng the lulls are
so constructetl as to setve also as u
means of getting on and off the- tiack,
wheie the rails aie- Imbcded In clay.
These can be dispensed with when tho
nils are Imbedded In concrete and the
load between the tracks nnd for a foot
or so on each side paved or inacaduni
l7ed. VKKY SANGUINE.
Mr. Dodge is veiy sanguine of the
adoption of the steel road idea. One
ol the great piobletns of tho day, he
said. Is to impiove the mean-s of tians
poilatlon for shoit hauls, and the steel
wagon road Is one of the most piomls
ins means to that end.
Our facilities for transpoi tation for
long distances Is all that could be de
sired, ho went on to say. but for dis
tances like twenty und thltty miles it
is far from what it should be. Piin
ciples nre being developed now that
promise to supply this deficiency. The
bicycle, which carries six times its
own weight. Is an Important step In
tills diieclloii. All other vehicles weigh
mote some ot them a bundled times
nunc than their burden. Storage bat
tel ics and other like means of piopul
siou he mentioned as another step
along this line.
These two ideas taken In connection
with the steel loadway open up won
dertul possibilities. The steel load
wuy. he argued, mukes possible llght
01 vehicles. Lighter vehicles Invito the
substitution of mechanical for costly
animal power. Development along this
hitter line means in time, as Mr. Dodge
views It, facilities for transportation
over shoit hauK equalling- those we
now enjoy over long hauls.

Campaign Manngcis Aie All Confi

Going to Win Out In To

Nothing about this very remaikable
campaign has been quite as remark
able! as Its closing houin. When the
paity woikeis retired to their homes
last night every one of them was abso
lutely ceitaln that the men he is In

At Republican headquarteis there
was an air of gieat conlldence yes
teiday. Tho men in chaige of the
campaign were not worrying them
selves flguilng out plutalltles or major
ities. They were putting the flnlblnB
touches on the work of the campaign,
and their confidence Indicated that
thev vveio noL at all nervous about
the lesult of today's balloting.
"Have no time to figure out major
ities," said ("hall man Wlllurd late in
the afternoon "Weil have leisure to
do that tmnon ovv night and have fucts
to woik with. We are going to win
though, make no mistake about thut,
and we'll havo a few to spare, too."'
At Dcmociatlc, headquaitcis Chair

nn Investigation nt an Early Hour
Thursday Morning.
City Engineer Phillips bus a ..crlous
task on hand, and there Is no way of
Judging veiy well Just now what pro
pot tlous It may ussuine. His attention
was drawn last Saturday to the sct
tlhiB of the fcldcvvnlkrt on the northerly
sld" of lower Lackawanna uvenue
lrorn the Delnvvaio nnd Hudson sta
tion to the bridge, und upon making"
an liibpcctlon bo finds that neaily thu
same condition Is pi essoined t.s that
opposite the old Wyoming house? a few
years ago.
The curbing is fettling down almost
level with tho asphalt, nnd the flag
stones of the sidewalks aie loosening1
and settling as well. How to account
for this oth-'f than the supposition
that tho sub'oll has been washed nwuy
Is what Is pU7rling Mr. Phillips.
Tf Iho gtotttic! wore compact the
curbing and sldewalku would not set
tle. Pelleting that the ground is
honeycombed then the question to ar-
ilvu ut Is. 'How much is It honey
combed and what caused It'" Two
things could be the came, the leaking
of the water main. 01 the leaking of
the sewer.
CONDITION HH FOUND.
How long any of these leaks, If
either or both cNlst, have been going
on Is another thing to consider. If
they aie lecent, the amount ot soil
washed out cannot bo large. Dill If
they aie old, the e tiasm unt'er the
street will be a considerable one
On Saturday Mr. Phillips made a
piollmlnary Inspection. He went Into
the base ments along that side and
lound that neaily all of them, esnoc
Inlly of those buildings on the "air
lots, ' were damp. In one of tho lovvoi
basements 01 Hoche & FaddenV hotel
tho water was t tickling through the
wall as If It came fiom a spring under
the street.
A bottle of that water was seemed
and sent to the laboratory In Chitten
den's eltug store for analysis. The
analysis did not detect any sewc rtiBO
pat tides In the wutci. It was almost
pine enough to be use for drinking
pui poss
Then yesterday, Assistant Engineer
Domlnlck J. Kelly und Lovelmen Evan
Wnlteis and Evan Thomas were de
tailed to go down to the mouth of the
sewer at the ilver and woik their
way up. A shoit distance Inside the
sewer they came to a stop by uneoun
teiins a small cataract about & feet
In height. A large volume ot water
was flowing over it at the time und
thut made their piogrcss Impossible.
They weic forced to tuin back, but
while they were In there they noticed
that water was tiickllng from the
northerly side of the sewer wall, and
got n quarL bottle and filled It trom
this senr co. It villi be analysed to
elry. Its appearance In the bottle sev
eral houis afterward was clear. T'teio
was se.iicoly any sediment on the bot
tom of the- bottle after standing thut
length of time.
NO PLAN OF SEWEIJ.
Strange to say, theru Is no plan of
the fwer recorded In the city engi
neer's ofllce. It was built in 1S72 when
Ficd Amsdcn was engineer, and if
thro evei was a plan ot it, it is lost.
stnyd or stolen In tho absence ot
a plan In the depaitment Is working
somen lint In the dark. From calcu
lation.) madu uj on measuilng the
depths of manholes Mr. Phillips Is of
the opinion that the sower litis thtco
or fours "drops," nbout eight feet high
evch.
He has fixed not Thuisdav morn
li.ij at 4 o'clock as the time for send
