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. COLLECTIONS FOR MONTH.

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.

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. SHILOH BAPTIST CHURCH. Recognition Services in Which Sev eral Clergymen Took Part.

Abraham, Moses, Ellas, Peter, John, and the Il lustrious Paul arc great figures In church history, but tho Savior Is the towering summit of the mountain peak above all these, and the one only to mediate for us with tho living God. Shlloh church hns a small but grow ing congregation, and has made much progress since Rev. Mr. Bell took charge of it last April. RIOTING AT DURYEA. Sympathizers of tho Rev. Father Hodur Gave a Demonstration of Their Feelings Monday Night. Three Sent to Jail. There was a demonstration that al most reached the proportions of a riot In front of the Polish Cntholio church nt Duryea Sunday night and as a re sult of It Joseph Rollnsky, Stanislaus Roglnskey and Frank Morlock were committed to the county jail at Wllkes Barre for a period of thirty days by Justice of the Peace Gllboy at a hearing Inst night.

Forty Hours deotlon were In pro gress In the Durvea Polish Catholic Church Monday and nsslstlng at the sen Ices were a number of Polish Catholic priests from various parts of the valley. Rev. Mr. Hodur's friends looked upon these pilests as his ene mies and after the services were over they made a very lolsy demonstration nnd hurled Ktonps at tho church and those who were teavin It. Some llttlo dllilcully was found In putting the Hoduiites to flight. Yesletday warrants were Issued for the ringleaders and last night the three above mentioned were summar ily convicted and sent to the county Jail at Wllkes-Barre for thirty days each.

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. XV. XV. Williams is plaintiff and Thomas J. Healey defendant In a pe culiar case now on before Judge Arch bald. Williams sues on a $124 Judg ment note which he claims was given him In 18SJ for carpenter work done on tho defendant's house.
