'I'o what extent the lionip.iny lias changed the original plans Is not given out otllelullv. but ftomsounes that are uullioiltntlve The Tribune Is Intnimcd that It eventually means u stt-lnl I(,ad tiom Caibondale to Honesdale. and that in time en on tension of the Dplawaie mid Hudson lines to tidewater along the mute of the abandoned canal. For tin present, passpngei and fielght unfile mid siuh coal business a is no ooss.iiy for the company's own local uses will be haudlPd over the gravity mule Trains will be inn as at pre sent fioin Caibondale to Honesdale Fi in Honesdale to Wnymmt on the letum tlip a locomotive of the nnirow gtuge lMie will dtnvv the ttalns over the loaded tine'-. From Wujninrt to Caibondale the gr.ivltv will be ucil The light ttack between Honesdale and Wnvmart will not be used ut all. In a nutshell, all trullle between Wuv- I mart nnd lionesdale I heavy Had;. will be on the FOH A T1.MH ONLY. Fur a time the toal shipments will be made over the Kile under Hie le (.ent air.ingement, the Krle and Wy oming being used as the outlet fioin tills, vnllev. This aiiiingement will, however, continue only for a limited time. The Delnwnie and Hudson com pan lias alieady secuted options on land along Its route over the mountain that will be necess.uy for laving n staiulaid guage steam load. In fatt, woiknicn are alieady widening som- of the cms along the levels above Way- mart. The dllllcultles attendant upon I getting amuial the bills now asteuded I by planes will alone go vol n the length of time tha' will intervene befoie the ! steam road Is a real'ty. There is no tiuth in the statement that the airiingeinent to take the Dela I w.ne and Hudson eonl over the IZile and Womlng to Haw ley bad fallen i through. Superintendent (.Jeoige H i Smith said estetday that he had heard nothing of such a move being contem plated. What is a still more positive denial Is the fact that the Delawate I nnd Hudson company Is replacing Its i nui row -guage tracks with wlde-guage ' tracks at all Its bieakcrs and has about i eomplet -d the work. W tde-guagti cms cant be run over the giavlty. In time the Krle nnd Wyo ming will not be used, but for the pity ent It must be. The older posted yesterday does not affect the gravity between Carhoudale and Olyphnnt. That will lemaln aban doned and is being torn up. Honesdale falily went wild with Joy eHteiday when the good news leached theie. Some of the enthusiastic citi zens had u lot of the notices printed In big tjpe and posted them all over the town. Crowds gathered nt the various stieet coineis and disvussed the wel come news nnd everybody congratu lated eveiybody else on the town's new lease of life. CONFLICTING STOHIKS. There ale conlllctlng stories atloat as to when the company came to this con clusion not to wholly abandon the gravity. A peisonal letter was iccelved by a lesldent of Honesdale from Vice President Young on Wednesday stut lug positively that the giavlty would be abandoned Theie are other state ments to the effect that the company never i ontemplated an entile abandon ment, but, ns Is often necessaty In deals wlieie options must be seemed on need ed land, practiced what might be teimed n politic- perversion. A local Delaware nnd Hudson ollic lal. when questioned on the matter, said It was quite possible -that the company found that the abandonment of the gravity would leave the Delawaie and Hudson at the ineicy of a ilval 10m piuiy and as this would nut be a veiv desltahle condition of affairs, decided to begin at once to take steps to avoid su h a dilemma. It Is more lenson.ible to suppose.how ever, that lut so l abroad coiporatlous are wont to look ahead further than a few weeks and thut Midi a someisuult In polity uud plans in such a slant pel Iml Is not likely.
