pany. A nortli-liound car and a south
bound car met at the corner of Alder
street and Plttston avenue, one three
blocks away from the switch and the
other five.
North-bound conductor said when he
left the switch there was nothing In
sight. South-bound said ho was on
the switch first and had the right ot
way. And so they stood nnd argued.
The crowd around grew larger every
minute until there were several hun
dred people around the car. The mo
tormen in the meantime let the con
ductors talk, and fell asltep.
"I'm right," said conductor of north
bound. "I'll stay hero all night he
fore I'll budge."
"Ah, go on, you fresh guy," re
sponded the other, "I was here first,"
"Carry them around," suggested a
bystander. "Get together and push,"
said a second, "and see who can push
the other back to the switch."
In the meantime two more cars came
up, and several others were waiting
at different switches nlong the line,
and the crowd was growing larger, and
the passengers more Impatient.
Tho north-bound car was standing
on the crossing and Lieutenant Zang
suggested to the conductor that ho
move back. Ho did so, and this was
taken as a retreat, and he was greeted
with loud Jeers. Ho was game, how
ever, and moiely moved off the cross
ing and settled down again. Ity this
time the block was ciowded with peo
ple "to see thp fun" and traffic was
nt n standstill all nlong the line. The
north-hound conductor finally tired ot
tho game; had his motonnnn reverse
the power and rnn back to the switch,
and as he gave In the crowd, to ex
