Rail observers report a Erie Delaware and Hudson agreement paving a four track link from Moneydale to Forest City via Farview Mountain. The tunnel route shortens the path and could obviate the need to rebuild the Lanesboro viaduct, potentially speeding Erie gains and coal interests alignment amid Vanderbilt Morgan speculation.

Two Juveniles Released From County Jail After Case
Nora Sheehan and Cora Acker ages 17 and 19 were discharged from the county jail after previously being arrested in the house of Albert Ivory in Raymond court. Ivory was convicted last week of keeping a bawdy house and sentenced to one year. The girls were kept as witnesses and described as very hardened for their age, with Sheehan noted as the tougher of the two. An attempt to send them to Philadelphia’s house of refuge failed because they are too old.
