PUSHING
TBEPflVlJG'
Contractor Brltt Says Next Week
Will
Show the Work.
START TO BE MADE HEXT MONDAY.
Only Sections Will be Taken at a Time, so
That a Whole Square Shall Hot be
Closed to Traffic as the Work
Progresses.
Although thero is little in the appearance
of North Main street at present tu indicate
that the street Is soon to bo lclieved of its
mud gossamer and clothed with a more be
coming and modern attlro of brick paving,
still Contractor W. J. Britt has beoa doing
considerable wotk, and according to his
promises the street will have a very dlUerenl
appearance a week from to-day.
Tbo work of rearranging the curb stones
has progressed very favorably and will bo
eomploted in a few days. To day Mr. Britt
was having the curbs In the vicinity of tho
intersection of Stain and Lloyd streets re
arranged. In some cases considerable lower
ing was required and, in others, curbs had to
bo raisod.
Next Monday morning, tho contractor
expects, the work on the street will begin.
Thero will bo a forco of twenty men on hand
and the farmers who drive to towu from tho
Catawissa and Boarlng Creek valleys will
smile as thoy see an old friend tho plow'
furrowing the mud and broken stono upon
tho thoroughfare, Work will first be
started on tho east side of the street,
leaving the west side open for traffic.
After tho street is well ploughed and the
surplus dirt and stones put out of tho wny,
then the workmen will start in with their
layers of broken stone, cement and sand.
This will be followed by tbo laying of tbo
bricks. It is estimated that it will require
about four days to complete the cement work
on the west side of the street
from Centre to Lloyd street. This
part of the work will Include the Schuyl
kill Traction Company's track, tho com
pany being in expectation of having thi
old track torn up and tho sills and new rails
in position by tho timo Mr. Britt Is ready.
The brick laying, the contractor says, will
proceed more rapidly than any other part of
tbo work. After the east side of tbo street Is
finished, and In condition to allow traffic
over it, the west side will be started up. This
system is to be adopted so that the whole of a
squaro shall not bo closod to traffic at any
time while the street paving work is in
progress.
Of course tbero may be a fow bitches, but
the contractor seems to havo formulated
his
plans nfter careful consideration, and it is
not likely that there will be any serious
delays In connection with the work. Such,
however, is the devout wish of the property
owners ana tenants along tuat .street, as
thero are business places in every property,
and much inconvenience will bo experienced
in the loading and unloading of goods while
the parts of the street Immediately In front
of the places are thrown out of sorvice
through the paving work.
As to too men to be employed, Mr. Britt
says ho will give preference to residents of
town whenever it can be done in justice
to all concerned, but an army of men
will not be required, and many of
them must necessarily havo seme prac
tical experience in street paving work. It is
expected that the first installment of nia
terial will arrive to-morrow.

Piattsburg, N. Y Aug. 9. The war
In the Philippines is to be prosecuted
with a vigor that ought to result In
speedy cessation of hostilities there.
Your correspondent saw Secretary of
War Hoot last night In the office of
(he Hotel Champlain, just after he bad
Mid goodby to the president and was
p.epnri g to take the train for Wash
ington. The secretary referred to his
visit to Piattsburg barracks In tho af
ternoon, whore he witnessed a regi
mental drill of the Twenty-sixth regl
nent under command of Colonel Rico.
his regiment has beon recruited and
organized in n little over three weeks,
nd they drilled yesterday like old vet-
ornns.
"The progress which the officers and
men or tho 'nventy-sixtn regiment
have mnde lit drilling in so short a
time is simply marvelous,' said Mr.
Root. "It shows the wonderful power
the United States whon ton regi
ments of volunteor soldiers can bo ro
crulted, organized, drilled and equip
ped for active service in tho flold in
so short a timo."
Will the war In tho Philippines be
prosecuted vigorously from now on?"
asked tho correspondent.
Mr. Root turned on his heel and re
plied quick as a Hash: "Yes, sir, tho
war In the Philippines from now on
111 bo prosecuted with all posslblo
energy. All tho men, all tho arms nnu
all the supplies necessary to end tho
trouble In the Islands will be furnished
at tho earliest possible moment."
"How largo a forco will be at the
disposal of the commanding general
thero?" was asked.
"There will bo 50,000 men thero
ready for active sorvice at tho close of
the rainy senson, about the Inst of Oc
tober, and moro will be Bent there if
necessary."
As to the rumor published In some
of tho papers that President McICInloy
and ho wero not agreeable upon tho
policy to be pursued in tho Philip
pines, Mr. Root said:
Of course that Is all nonsense.
Whon asked whether Qoneral Otis
would be relieved of tho command of
tho American forces in the Philippines
Mr. Root replied that ho had nothing
to say on this point at this timo.
It would bo Impossible for any one
to bo moro emphatic nnd determined
than Secretary Root Is In his nvowed
policy of ending tho trouble in tho
Philippines. He seldom talks for pub
Ilcatlon, and the fnct that ho had just
come from a two days' conference with
President McKlnley adds Interest to
his words.
