NEW INTERLOCKING SYSTEM.
It Is Being Installed by the Local
Telephono Company,
The Central Pennsylvania Telephone
nnd Supply company havo made a
vast Improvement In tho local service
In the shape M the lnttoductlon of a
now elective signal or Interlocking
system, which ns yet Is only In use In
Baltimore, UulTalo and Clnghumtan.
It Is only adapted to residence Bervlco
and Is constructed to have six sub
scribers on a line, practically giving
each a private wire.
The Interlocking contrivance consists
In the fact that no telephone bell rings
except for tho subscriber wanted:
neither can any other person on that
lino hear tho conversation. The patron
does not ring for the exchange, In fact
their Is no bell crank. Tie simply takes
the trumpet from the hook, which dicp3
the slgnnl In the om.ee. The operator
connects with the person wanted, which
Immediately shut off all connection
with tho other live subscribers on the
line on each of whose telephones
a small whlto disc drops showing
that the wire Is In use.
When the speaker hangs up the trum
pet the disc withdraws. Tho system
entirely obviates tho obnoxious ringing
of numbers other than tho subscriber
called, nnd Is thus ,iructlcally adnft
cd to residences. No olllces or bus
iness places nre allowed on the lino
on which the new telephones are
placed. The Invention belongs to tho
Bell company and comprises the new
feature of a power plant In the ex
change. The crent feature of the sys
tem Is the economy, ns It Is provided
for ubout one half the coat of the old
method. About 75 Instruments have
been placed In this city.

DID NOT PAY POR THE MILK.
Milkman Barrett, of the South Side,
Charged with Palse Pretenses.
M. J. Barrett, a South Side milk
dealer, was brought before Alderman
Kasson yesterday on a warrant sworn
out by B. .7. Foley, of Wlmmers, alleg
ing having obtained $65 worth of milk
by false representation. Barrett was
unable to furlnsh bail nnd was com
mitted to await the action of the grand
Jury.
Foley charged that Barrett came to
his house one day and set forth that
he wanted to buy a certain qdantlty
of milk dallv and represented that he
owned his wagon, cans, horse and all
the other appurtenances of a milk
man's property. On the strength of
this Foley shipped him milk to the
amount of $tJ5, but on looking for pay
it was not forthcoming, and upon In
vestigation he claims to have discov
ered that Barrett did not own any of
these things at all.

JM JUDGE IS SORE
ON REFEREE AUSTIN
ATTRIBUTES HIS DEFEAT
UNFAIR TREATMENT.
TO
Says That Austin Favored Smltli
and Points Out tho Particular
Manner In Which He Did It Anx
ious for Another Oo nnd Confident
That Ho Can Win tho Champion
ship Although Badly Punished
Judgo Was Not Permanently Hurt.
Patronage Not Encouraging.
Jim Judge is sore in more ways than
one us a result of the affair of Mon
day night. He Is especially Fore over
what he terms rotten treatment at tho
hands of Referee Sam Austin.
"I had to fight the champion of the
world, fight him at his own game and
light the referee Into the bargain," was
Judge's own summing up of his defeat.
"With affair man as referee I can
defeat Smith, and in fighting with
tho clinches barred I can make a
monkey out of him. If there Is one
man In the world I can whip It Is that
man Smith, nnd I propose to do It."
Judge's complaint against Referee
Austin Is not altogether an unground
ed one, but there are few who will
be rash enough to impute to the well
known referee dishonesty or mistakes
through neglect or carelessness. Ac
cording to Judge's story, Austin would
never call "break" when Smith had
the advantage until Smith had ceased
punching. When Judge had the ad
vantage he would call "break" before
a blow could be delivered. Again,
Judge calls attention to a fact which
probably many did not particularly
notice, namely, that during the early
part of the light Austin let the fight
ers separate after a clinch at their own
leisure, but towards tho Inst part of
the tight when Judge was weak, Aus
tin would rush In and pull them apart
as quickly at he could, so that Smith
according to Judge himself might
get nt his opponent and make the most
out of his weakened condition.
ATTRIBUTES DEFEAT TO THEM.
To tho average on-looker these
things appear unimportant. Judge at
tributes his defeat to them.
Theio were stories afloat durintr all
of yesterday that Judge was perma
nently injured, but these were without
foundation. After tho fight he was re
moved to Purcell'si baths, on Spruce
street, and examined by Dr. O'Malley.
The doctor found him to be suffering
from no serious hurts nnd assured his
friends that he was all right. The
prognosis proved correct. Judge's
stomach bothered him until about 1
o'clock Merday afternon, but after
a sleep i some appropriate treat
ment this ouble was removed nnd
last night at 11 o'clock he was feeling
well enough to warrant the belief that
he would be out In the mornlnc ready
to make another try for the belt.
His back, which was a pet target for
Smith's right In the clinches nnd which
was as red as a raw beefsteak when
Judge went to his dressing room, was
not discolored In the least last night,
and Judge said there was no soreness
there whatever.
These blows on the back did not do
much damage at all, Judge says. It
was the stomach blows and the slabs
In the side that were the most effect
ive. They took the steam out of hi
left arm, he says, and with that gonn
ho was not as capable of stopping
Smith's rushes ns during the earlier
rounds of the fight.
MAY BE THE LAST.
It Is a mooted question as to whether
or not the American Sporting club will
attempt any more big fights In this
city. There Is a growing sentiment
against them and, furthermore, the
patronage would hardly warrant an
other venture.
Not over half of the $3 seats were
occupied at Monday night's bout, and
a goodly part of the other half were
occupied by deadheads.
SHE POUND HER FRIENDS.
Young Woman Lodging at Emer
gency Hospital Made Happy.
The young Austrian woman who
wandered about, not knowing where to
go after reaching the city last Friday
evening, was being taken yesterday
to a family on Mulberry street, where
Mrs. Duggan had obtained a position
for her, and suddenly she found her
friends.
A man living on South Washington
avenue passed them and she recog
nized him. She stopped and spoko
and after a five minutes conversation
Mrs. Duggon's guardianship was no
longer necessary. He took tho young
woman In charge and' started to bring
her to her relatives on the Flats. Tha
man's name Is Oram, and he Is related
to Ignatz Oram, of South Washington
avenue. It was hard to find her friends
becniiEo no one could be found who
understood her language.

progress since Rev. Mr. Bell took
charge of it last April.

THE OLD SCHOOL BOOKS.
Text Book Committee Will Meet To
See What's to Be Done.
Tomrorow evening the text book com
mittee will meet at No. 9 school build
ing, on Ash street, to decide upon what
uses to make of the old text books that
have been and will be stored away. No.
9 school has been used for some time
past as storace headquarters for the
books that havo been relegated to the
shelf.
First these books were packed away
In the buildings where they were used.
That plan was not long In force, for
they took up too much space, and then
again were apt to be overhauled fre
quently and rendered entirely useless.
Next they were stored In the supply
rooms, but the available space there
became too limited, and thirdly, thqy
were carted to No. 9. The committee
will meet at that building so that they
can Inspect the stock on hand and
know In what condition it Is with a
view to selling such part as may be
worth dealing out at second-hand.

CLAIMS THE BONDS
WERE HER PROPERTY
MRS. M. J. CALLENDER SUES TO
RECOVER 810,000.
Assignee John r. Kelly, of tho De
funct Olyphant Trust Company,
Sold tho Ponds ns Assets of the
Rank nnd Mrs. Callondcr Suos to
Recover Their Value, Alleging
That She and Not tho. Bank Was
tho Owner Judgment Noto Case
In Which Thcro Is Bad Memory.
Mrs. Margaret J. Callender's suit for
$10,000 against Hon. John P. Kelly, ns
assignee of the Olyphant Trust com
pany, was called for re-trlal before
Judge SeaHe yesterday. Judge John
B. McPherson tried the crso last fall
and gave binding instructions for the
plaintiff. Ho afterwards admitted the
defendant's contention, that he was In
error in not submitting the matter to
tho Jury, and directed that tho case be
re-tried.
The suit grows out of the fnlluro of
the Olyphant Trust company in 1S93.
When Mr. Kelly, the assignee, took
charge of the bank's affairs he found
In the hands of the First National
bank of Scranton a budget of coupon
bonds of the nggregate par value of
$10,000, which had been deposited there
by the Trust company as collateral
security for a $6,000 Indebtedness to
tho bank. When sufficient money had
been collected to redeem the bonds, the
assignee took them from the bank and
sold them, accounting for the proceeds
as other assets were accounted for.
Later, when J. Alton Davis, acting
as auditor, was engaged in distribut
ing the funds In the assignee's hands,
Mrs. Cnllender presented u claim lor
the value of the bonds In question, al
leging that they wero her property, de
scended to her from her father's es
tate, nnd that she had loaned them to
the Trust company, through her hus
band, who was Its vice-president.
THEY WERE A LOAN.
He took them out of their private
vault, she says, upon her authorization
and delivered them to tho bank as a
loan, receiving from the cashier, M. J.
Stone, a certificate settlns forth that
tho bonds were borrowed and that they
would bear Interest at six per cent.
The defendant clnlms that the bank
did not borrow the bonds from Mrs.
Callender and never knew her In the
matter at all. He contends that Mrs.
Callender's husband, vice-president of
the bank, loaned tho bonds to M. J.
Stone personally and that Stone sold
the bonds to the bank to cover his In
debtedness at the time tho state bank
examiner complained of the insecurity
of the Trust company's assets.
The plaintiff is represented by I. H.
Burns and W. S. Dlehl. Mr. Kelly has
as his attorneys S. B. Price and Major
Everett Warren.
The Rhodes-Vaughan ox case went
to the Jury yesterday at 4 o'clock In
the afternoon, after the whole day
had been consumed In listening to the
$75 dispute it embraces. Yesterday's
proceedings were enlivened some by
tilts between the attorneys and an oc
casional bit of odd or Interesting test
imony. One of the witnesses M. J. Kinney,
of Gouldboro, who In his capacity of
village blacksmith had frequent occa
sion to shoe the oxen, testified that he
never saw anything wrong with them
and to the best of his knowledge and
belief they wero perfectly sound. Mr.
Colllngs.counselfortho defense, on .ex
amining the witness nfcked If it wasn't
so that he was a Christian Scientist.
REPLIED IN KIND.
Tho witness admitted that he was.
"Then you wouldn't admit said Mr.
Colllngs, "that there could possibly
be anything the matter with the oxen.
If one of them walked lame you
would say that It wasn't lame; It was
all In tho Imagination of the ox. Is
that rlsht?" The witness merely an
swered that If Mr. Colllngs said such
was thf- case It must be so.
