CHEAP ASJVALKING.
A Desire on the Part ol the Traction
Companies to Catch All the
Traffic They Can
WILL BATE LOTS OP SHOE LEATHER
Rut Liberty and Sharpsburg Patrons Anx
ious to Secure a System of
Transfer Tickets.
THEIR .EBAS05S FOE THE BEQUEST.
Tilt Cltliens' Line to Meet All Cuts That May be
JlaJc ly its Tw Competitors.
The demand for a revision of traction
road fares is rampant through Lawrence-
Tille and the East End. A cheaper scale of
fares is demanded, as also a system ot trans
fer tickets from one branch of the Citizens'
line to the other. Laborers, especially mill
workers, who reside in the Esst Liberty
neighborhood, and whose business brings
them to Lawrenceville, are especially inter
ested in the movement. Several of these
children of brawn were interviewed on the
subject yesterday. Mr. James Verner, a
director oi the Citizens' Traction Company,
was also seen. As a result, at the next
meeting of the Board of Directors of the
Citizens' Traction Company, some time
next month, a proposition will be made to
have the company issue transfer tickets to
people using both the Penn avenue and
Butler street branches. The matter will be
brought up by Mr. Verner, who is one of
the principal stockholders and directors of
the road. If the recommendation is adopted
the people using the two lines will save 5
cents each time they ride on the cars.
There are quite a number of people living
in East Liberty whose places of business are
on Butler street, and many of them work in
the mills at Sharpsburg and Etna. There
are also a great many people living in the
two boroughs who travel between those
points to Bloomfield and East Liberty. If
a workingman living in East Liberty travels
to and from Shirpsburg every day, his car
fare will be 30 cents, which is quite an item
of expense. The fare from East Liberty to
the forks of the Road is 5 cents. From the
Forks to the Cemetery Gate it is5 cents more,
and he will have to "pay an additional fare
on the Sharpsburg cars.
BASIS OF THE CLAIM
The people who object to paying 15 cents
say the company should issue transfer
tickets at the Forks and carry them from
their homes to Sharpsburg for 10 cents.
They base their claim for a reduction on ac
count of the short distance between these
two points, although it is necessary to
chance cars twice to complete the journey.
The distance from Sharsburg to East Lib
erty is no greater than from the latter point
to Pittsburg, although there are three times
the aniout of fare charred. A reporter of
The Dispatch yesterday called upon Mr.
Verner, and in reply to questions the latter
said:
"The idea of issuing transfer tickets from
East Liberty to Sharpsburg has never been
thought of by the directors, cut since you
mention it, I will bring it up before the
board at the regular meeting in July. I
think the scheme would result favorably to
the company, and I believe it will be done.
"What money would be lost in decreased
fares would be made up from an increase of
passengers. The officers of the company are
always willing to do anything to please its
patrons, especially when it will benefit the
stockholders. We are contemplating im
proving and extending the Sharpsbnrg
branch, and we may as well begin with a
reduction of the fare's from East Liberty.
"The Dispatch has already announced
the fact that there will be a special meeting
of the stockholders in July lor the purpose
of increasing the capital stock. This will
be necessary to make the change of motive
power on the Sharpsburg branch. The
capital stock of the company is now $2,500,
000, and it will be necessary to increase this
to 83,000,000, to make the change. Our in
tention is to make the very fastest time be
tween Sharpsburg and the Cemetery Gate,
and transfer the electric cars to the cable
car tracks. Passengers could then make
thetrip from the borough to the heart of
the city in about three-quarters of an honr.
"WOULD SAVE TIME AXD SIOKET.
"The majority of the people now travel
either over the Allegheny Valley, the VTest
Penn or the Pittsburg and "Western roads.
In either case tbey have to cross the river at
Allegheny or Sharpsbnrg, and about ten
minutes is lost. If they walk they are com
pelled to pay bridge toll, and if" they ride
thev must pay 5 cents. The electric cars
could be run into town, attached to the
cable cars, without trouble, and pacsengers
would not have to change at the" Cemetery
Gate. It is the intention to extend the line
from Sharpsburg to Fairview, a distance of
about four miles. The country up there is
becoming thickly populated, and there is
no doubt at all about the business paying.
"It is rather too early to talk of Duquesne
Traction Company affairs, but to my mind
there is going to fie a fight between the two
companies for business. About the first
thing will be a reduction of fares, and I
will favor our company taking a hand in
the fight. We have our own patronage in
the East Liberty Valley and have never
paid any attention to the Pittsburg Com
pany, which goes through an entirelv differ
ent territory. If the Pittsburg Company
reduces the fare we will meet it, and be
tween the three companies it will be a case
of the survival or the fittest If the fare
wa reduced to 3 cents it would probably be
a starter toward a consolidation of the Pitts
burg and Duquesne companies. Thel two
lines would fight each other, and, as both
would lose money, the affair would be set
tled by one selling out to the other. Both
lines will practically go through the same
territory, and where under the sun both of
them can get enough passengers is more
than I can see. The people in the new com
pany are in it to stay and there will be fun
when they begin running their cars."
TALKS WITH THE PATKOJJS.
A trip was made to Highland avenue,
near East Liberty, where John Dogherty
resides in a neat frame house. Mr. Dogherty
is a mill worker. He formerly lived in
Lawrenceville, near the mill in which he
worked, but has since moved to his present
dwelling place. Mr. Dogherty said: "I
think that's a good plan of The Dispatch
about those transler tickets. Every morn
ing, when I'm starting out to work, I've got
to take the cars down to the Forks of the Boad,
get out there and take the other cars as
far as Fortv-third street. For the two rides
I pay 10 cents. Lots of men prefer to walk
the "whole journey; but I'm getting a bit
old, and the walk would make me too tired
to work my full time. If the Citizens' line
people allowed transfer tickets, to go
'through, they would do a mnch bigger busi
ness with raillnien and other laborers.
About lower fares, I would like nothing
better, and I'm sure the additional number
of passengers would make up for the reduc
tion." Joseph J. McGonigle, of Wain
right's brewery, lives on Frankstown ave
nue. He also approved of lower fares.
"Three cent fares," he observed, "would
help us with familes to pay rent and taxes.
Four cents extra in our pockets every day
may look small, but it meaus church money
on Sunday and candy for the children. The
transfer tickets would be a great boon; "that
is, ifjhey were 5-cent transfer tickets. Lots
of peopleworking in Lawrenceville prefer to
lire ovein this part of town, as it's cleaner
here, "yn see These people ought to be
considered by the traction companies."
VIEWS OF A POLICEMAN.
Officer Thomas W. King also dwells on
Frankstown avenue, but hit sphere of dnt-r
lieth not is East Liberty, bnt in Lawrence-
ville. Policeman King Is a very intelli
gent citizen. "You see," said he, "I don't
pay any fare, being a policeman; but I may
quit the force very soon, and then I'll have
to pay. I am thinking of going into busi
ness down Sharpsbnrg way, but-Mrs. King
won't hear to leaving East Liberty, where
many of her friends live. So I am mnch
interested in this new idea sprung by The
Dispatch. Not only the people's interests,
but their own ought to prompt the Citizens'
traction people to give us those transfer
tickets. The first line that gives me the
cheapest way to Sharpsburg I'll stick to in
the big fight that the lines are going to
have, sooner or later. I think most people
out here will say the same." .
J. H. Arthurs, clerk in Wanamaker &
Brown's establishment, was in favor of
smaller fares to Pittsburg. "If the Citizens'
line will not rednce "their fares now," he
siid, "they will have to do so later on.
They may as well reduce with a good grace.
I am not personally interested in the trans
fer ticket plan, but I think it is a good one,
and feel sure that all the laboring classes
whose work lies in the Allegheny river di
rection will support it."
Out Lawrenceville way the same feeling
prevails. Dr. C. V. Buvynger, of Butler
street, has occasion to make many journeys
to the East End. "I find the traction car
rides swilter and more direct than the
buggy driving I used to do. The charging
of 10'cents for a trip from Lawrenceville to
East Liberty is a little too much. The two
branches which separate at the forks of the
road belong to the same line. "What diffi
culty then can there be about creating a
transler system between them, and charging
five cents for the journey."
A BEGULAE PASSEXGEB.
Andrew Patterson is a shrewd Scotch
gardener, living on Fortv-fonrth street. He
works in the gardens of several East End
residents, and makes fourtrips on weekdays
between Lawrenceville and these points. "I
ken ve'Il laugh at me, for being a canny
auld'Scot," he said, "fond o' the bawbees,
an' a' tha; but I tell ye that there's mair
than me wha wants the three-cent fares, an'
the transfer tickets. My wife teaches mil
linery, down town, and going in every day
the three-cent fares wod be a hie reduction
for her, too. Gin someane or 'other. '11 pet
np a petition to the directors, I'll sign it."
Mr. "Walter J. Griffiths, of Forty-sixth
street, a well known and representative resi
dent, said: "It would be a really splendid
notion, that 3-cent fare idea. The transfer
tickets will, I am sure, be agreed to by the
company without any trouble. It was posi
tively unjust to ask people to pay double
fares on that trip. "Wlien they reduced the
10-ceiit lares they ought to have given the
transfer tickets, too."
otheb transfers -wanted.
The residents of Oakland are still agitat
ing the transfer-ticket idea on the Atwood
street feeder ot the Pittsburg Company.
The electric cars will probably be running
by to-morrow, and nobody knows what ar
rangement has been made by the company
about the short distance fare. If any at
tempt is made to collect an additional fare
the people say they will boycott the cars
and continue to walk.
The track sprinkler of the Pittsburg com
pany arrived yesterday, and was run out on
the road attached to a cable car. It will be
run at intervals during the day over the road.
HIS WIPE MAT DIE.
A Fall Hnabnnd nnd on Emptr Bottle Prove
a Bad Combination for HI. RIathew
Remlincer The Woman In n Very Se
rlous Condition.
Mathew Bemlinger went to his home, on
Brownsville avenue, near South Eighth
street, in an intoxicated condition early yes
terday morning. Mrs. Bemlinger scolded
him for his condition. Bemlinger finally
seized his wife with the intention of beating
her, bnt alter a desperate struggle, in which
both were considerably shaken up, she es
caped from his grasp and attempted to rnn
from the house. Bemlinger started in pur
suit and another struggle began, in which
the woman would have held her own had
not her husband picked up an empty beer
bottle and struck her a heavy blow on the
head.
The children in the house screamed at
the sight of the blood streaming from their
mother's head, covering her with the red
stain from head to foot, and running over
the floor, and neighbors who had been lis
tening to the quarrels between the couple
ran to the house on hearing the frightened
cries 01 the children.
Mrs. Bemlinger was lying on the floor un
conscious, and with the appearance of a
dead person. Messengers were at once sent
for the police and a doctor. Special Officer
Richards went to the house and arrested
Bemlinger, who had remained in the house,
bnt made no effort to aid his wife. The phy
sician who attended the injured woman said
that the wounds, while not necessarily fatal,
were of a very serious character, and might
prove disastrous.
Bemlinger was placed in the Twenty
eighth ward station, and will be held pend
ing the result of bis wife's injuries.
TEE COMMISSION SYSTEM.
A Problem With Which Passenger Agents
Are Still Wrestling.
"Whether the system of paying commis
sions by railroads is against the 'inter-State
law, or whether or not thesystem is a bad
one, and militates against the interests of
the lines is a question which passenger men
would like to have definitely settled one
way or another. An old ticket agent of the
Pennsylvania Company, in discussing the
subject yesterday, said:
"The policy of this road is against paying
the commissions, as being illegal, but some
of the Western lines offer agents pecuniary
inducements to sell their tickets, and it in
jures our system. The evil of the plan is
that one railroad will underbid the other
andgive larger commissions to secure the
business. It is useless, too, for some rail
roads to agree not to pay them while others
do. If the lines could do no better, it seems
tome they could agree on a uniform com
mission to be paid, and this would give the
weaker lines a better chance to compete for
business."
TALK OF A BAHB0AD PBESDJEKT.
Mam or the Pennsylvania Cars la Use on
the Grand Kapldn nnd Indiana.
"W. O. Hughart, "President of the Grand
Bapids and Indiana Bailroad, accompanied
by his wife, arrived in the city yesterday in
his special car. They registered at the
Monongahela House. The road is prac
tically of the Pennsylvania system west,
and Mr. Hugbart comes here often to con
sult with the officials.
Just at the present time the traffic on the
road isvery heavy, and many of the Penn
sylvania Company's cars are being used.

DE. M. B. GOFFS BACCALAUREATE.
A Unitarian Idea of the Possible Fifth Ave
nue of the Hereafter.
0THEE TIEWS OP LOCAL PEEACflEES
A deeply interested audience followed
Chancellor Milton B. Goff through the "Ee
latiOn of Libraries to Education," that
furnished the subject of his masterly bacca
laureate sermon delivered at the "Western
University yesterday morning. After pre
senting an account ot what has been done in
the way of making and collecting books,
Dr. Goff proceeded to show the utility of li
braries and the relations between them and
education. He said:
'"Some seem to think that the educated
man makes no mechanic; that frequently the
hard worker makes the greater progress.and
usually in his avocation makes the better
man. It is not usually true, though it is
true sometimes. "When the character of the
two is the same, both having the same mate
rial tastes, the same perseverance, the same
love for their work,. the educated will in the
long run be the superior. It would, of
course, be useless to compare those who are
of different caliber, different disposition and
inclination."
In conclusion, the speaker said: "The
library should be a blessing to all people;
to those of little education; both directly
and indirectly; directly, because tbey may
learn from the more elementary works that
which will make them wiser and better; in
directly, because it affords the better edu
cated the means to obtain information which
can be put into simpler form,
and thus made accessible through the
making of books, to the simpler compre
hension. Let us, then, with one accord,
unite to instruct our youth iu that which is
pure and useful, both by libraries and
schools; and endeavor with all our powers
to cultivate in them a taste for that which
is noble and good, and imbue all with
whom we comeln contact with a desire to
drop out of the unseemly race for mere
gain, and enter upon the more noble strife
of making the world happy; remembering
thst 'the whole duty of man is to fear God
and keep His commandments.' "
THE FIFTH AVENUE OF HEAVEN.
Dr. Townaend'a Views of the Dalles of tho
Rich and the Poor.
Bev. James G. Townsend, pastor of the
Unitarian Church, in his sermon yesterday
morning, said: "The ideal which many
have is a material one, a residence with all
its accessories on Fifth avenue, New York;
Euclid avenue, Cleveland, or the East End,
Pittsburg. To this I would have no objec
tion (for no palace is too good for a human
being to live in) if there were enough to go
round, and the work were done by material
servitors. But I object to this ideal for two
reasons: It produces a kind of social servi
tude (for a whole armyot caterers must wait
on the millionaires), and it deteriorates the
class who are served; for, as a rule,
there is no class who produce so
little of real worth of art, poetry,
thought, philanthropy as the rich. Our
noblest men come Irom the middle classes.
I strike no blow at the possession of prop
erty, believing that business, at the bottom,
is profoundly ethical. I think it the duty
of men and women to live in lovely homes,
and to dress as beautifully as they can. I
am no apostle of grief. God made us for
pleasure, not for pain; for sunshine, and not
I or shadow. Nor do I think we should be the
bridegrooms of poverty. Poverty's the
nurse of all that's evil. I hate it. Neither
do I desire that all shall be made after the
same pattern and live in the same way.
"Some men are capes and some men are
continents. But social equilibrium will
never come until men protect the future of
their children by giving them the inner
treasures or purity and truth, teaching both
sons and daughters a trade, and profoundly
lusiuiiug m mem tue jeeuug 3i tne sacreu
ness of labor. Until all men, the preacher,
the editor, the lawyer, touch manual toil at
some point, the social gulf will not be
bridged. In my judgment the time will
come when labor of the hand, into which
goes the thought of the brain, will be paid
lor as well as music, oratory, or painting.
Those who live in the Filth avenue of
heaven serve with their own hands, live
simply and are hospitable to all. Noble
thought! the richer the man the Bmaller
should be his house. Instead of a million
in one house, he should build a hundred
beautiful homes, each family trained to do
its own work. He who does no work of
hand or brain only consumes makes the
value of the dollar less in the pocket of
every other man.
