Commence at Hornstein Hill Putting in First Work Track. Equipment Arriving: and Work Will Soon by Under Way at Saegertown. The work of double-tracking the Erie Railroad from Meadville to Concord, thus completing the double track clear through to Waterboro, has been started, commencing at the Meadville end, and soon there will be activity all along the line. Gillespie who have the contract for the section between Meadville and Cambridge Springs, have begun the laying of a working track at Hornstein Hill, between this City and Saegertown, where the work will begin, and as soon as the rails are in position the work of paring down that hard hill and taking the dirt to Saegertown for the fill there will begin. The contractors received one steam shovel at Saegertown Wednesday and other of their equipment has arrived and is arriving daily.

The question has been asked as to i how trains will be run through Saeg- ertown during the raising of the grade, about 13 feet? The plan is wholly simple. The old track will be abandoned when the new double track Is finished and ready for use. The grade for the new double track, which will be about 13 feet higher than the present track, will be to the east of the present track, and while it is being built and the two new lines of rails laid the old track will be used, as at present. When the new double track is completed all that will be necessary will be to connect the old track at the proper point and start SEAMEN REFUSE TO SAIL ON OLYMPIC Men on Sister Ship of Titanic Declare life-Saving Equip-, ment Inadequate. Big Ship Forced to Anchor Off Spithead to Await New Crew.

By Leased Wire from New York Sun. SOUTHAMPTON', April 24. Com-rJaining of the life-saving facilities on board the liner Olympic, sister ship of the lost Titanic, 300 stokers struck just before the vessel's sailing time to. day, declaring the additional life-saving equipment inadequate. The firemen who quit the Olympic state that one of their number pushed his thumb through the canvas one of the collapsible boats, and therefore they decided not to take any risks.

After a delay of an hour the liner moved down the river, where she anchored. The Olympic, with her 1400 passengers, was still anchored at Spithead off Ryde at midnight waiting for her complement of firemen. The vessel got that far with the help of 40 engi- neers who had been loaned by the American Une. The striking firemen, notwithstanding the fact that they are liable to arre3t for mutiny, are unyielding and are supported by the officials of the union. After they landed there was pandemonium on the quay.

Many of the men Beemed to be intoxicated. After the seamen talked, the officials and stewards were obliged to do rope work while the vessel was going down Southampton water. Subsequently men of all ranks below boatswain's mate refused to do duty. FARMERS' 'EXCHANGE 'IN 1 GREENVILLE MEETING (Special Correspondence.) GREENVILLE, April 24.

The woman from Nice has sent a description of the children which tal lies in most respects with the waifs.
