He could no longer hold Petersburg or Richmond against his stronger foe, One chance was left—a desperate chance, but his only one, And he took {t. He prepared to retreat by forced marches—sending word for Richmond to be evacuated—to Join Johnston in North Caroling and combine what was left of the two Confederate armies, This, af course, could not change the fate of the Confederacy, but It might postpone the inevitable jend. Grant had foreseen the project and had no {dew of letting Lee carry it out. ground rights, and, in fact, to transform special franchises into} perpetual private p wea to an extent which might mean the loss ns of dollars of taxes to the city in future. | , The Evening World insisted, would be an unnecessary and} unwise departure from the policy by which the city has, in its more recent history at least, kept a controlling hand upon its valuable grants to transit corporations-—requiring, for extra tracking fran-| chises and the like, fixed rentals or percentages of gross receipte and reserving the right to revise the arrangements at stated intervals, Why should the New York Central be entitled to « bargain different in this respect from those the city has made, at one time or another, with the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, the Manhattan Elevated or the B. R. T.? The soundness of this objection has been recognized by the Public Service Commission. The new tentative plan announced by the Commission and the Joint Confegence of the Board of Fatimate expressly substitutes rental for the formerly proposed perpetual ownership of rc’! estate by the railroad. Among the chief points of the new proposal we find: Rental (readjusted every twenty-five years) to be pald by the railroad for the use of public property, or for rights granted, instead of the real estate ownership basis of the plan of 1916. City waterfront property and all other necessary property to be leased to and not sold to the raflroad. The ratiread to be placead wholly upon alty atreeta and public property, thereby establishing complete muntcipal contro! over its rights. Rights granted not to be capitalized elther for purposes of rate making or for sale to the city in the case of Federal Government purchase. The rights granted to be subject, among other things, to: Recapture for muntolpalization or other public purpose by the city, In which event no payment is to be made for rights os - granted under the agreement. The new plan radically differs from the old in protecting the city’s Interests on exactly the lines urged by The Evening World. Tn putting a series of practical questions to the framers of the Of Successful Marriages 1916 proposal and in throwing open ita columns to discussion of the ae “Grant had worked out the whole campaign as if {t were a tough chess | problem,” writes one historian. “His progress was slow. But it was tere ribly sure, This shabby, green little Westerner had a deadly way of strip. ping war of its gold lace and laurels; of putting it on a business basis—and * winning.” In hopeless, almless fight, Lee's brave army staggered on. About 40,000 Confederates began the retreat. Sheridan cut off and captured 7,000 at one blow, The survivors presently were whittled down to 28,085, of whom barely 8,000 atill had weapons, None had enough food for a square meal, It was one of the most dramatic and terrible retreats in history, ‘ ‘ At last Grant overtook the reeling remnant at Lee's Surrender {Sent word, bemwine Late to stop Turtier urslens Bloods i ing La er ureless * at Appomattox. ® shed by surrendering.
