In the case of P. C. Pilger against
the Borough ot Thro'op, the rule for ;i
new trial was refused. Pilfer secured
damages for injury done goods In the
cellar of his saloon by water overflow
ing from a blocked gutter. The bor
ough attorneys, Ieers & Gratnbs,
sought a new trial on tho ground that
the verdict wus not in accord with the
evidence.
The rule for a new trial in the case
)t Fannie and John Gnlluclier against
the Borough of Jermyn was also dis
vharged. Mrs. Gallagher had her leg
aroken by falling on a defective siile
.valk. The jury gae her ?GO0 and her
nusband $100. The borough asked for a
lew trial on the ground that tho case
should' have been non-suited because of
contributory negligence on tho part ot
Mrs. Gallagher, she having 'taken a
path which she knew was dangerous,
when she might have gone on the other
side of the street to a safe walk.
The fad that Mrs. Gallagher was one
of a. large number of persons returning
from church along the sidewalk in
question, when she was injured, de
cided tho judge In refusing to hold her
guilty of contributory negligence, the
law being that a person encountering a
possibly dangerous spot on the road
may proceed, if he or she reasonably
oelleves it can be passed by in safety.
ItULU DISCHARGED.
The rule for a new trial In the cuse
of C. B. Wescott against Thomas C.
urWln was discharged, and re'tusal was
given the petitioners to strike off the
non-suits In the eases of John Coni
gan against the Scrnnton Railway com
pany, and Ann McGovern against the
Lackawanna Iron and Steel company.
In the case of the "West Rldse Coal
company against C. S. Yon Storch, the

Seventy-two Per Cent, of the Busi-
ness of the Railroads oftho
Country Is Freight.
The casual observer will probably
argue that the railroads throughout tho
United States rater more to the pas
senger than freight traffic over the
various roads. Tills argument Is usu
ally advanced by the fellow who hangs
around tho passenger station and
watches the Incoming and outgoing
passenger trains with their carloads of
human freight.
But the student of facts and figures
t III tell you, and on the best of au
thority, that seventy-two per cent, of
the railroad transportation Is clone in
freight, wlille the remaining twenty
eight per cent. Includes the passenger,
mall and express business. Tills Is an
estimate ot all the toads in tho United
States.
The unprecedented increase In the
freight business during tho past year
has broken all previous records, and
the percentage would have been much
larger, but for the lack of transpor
tation facilities. The coming year will
undoubtedly witness a remaikable
growth in all lines of railroad truilic.
This nnd That.
Superintendent Rose, of , the Dela
ware and Hudson company, has issued
an order forbidding the foremen or
clerks at any Delaware and Hudson
colliery to have anything to do with
the purchase or sale of powder kegs.
These kegs. Which are worth ten cents
each, have been bought up by foremen
or clerks for about! five cents. The or
der of Superintendent Rose will enable
the miner to get a higher price for the
kegs, either tho ten cents straight from
the powder company or eight or nine
cents from tho agents.
Some persons think that the Dela
ware Valley railroad is the first, out
side the Erie, to enter little Pike. Tho
Mllford Dispatch tells or three railroad
companies to meet there Saturday,
January 11. On that occasion directors
for the ensuing year will be chosen by
the Mllford, Matamorus and New York
railroad, the Mllford and Log Tavern
railroad and the Mllford and Dlngmau
railroad. The latter two roads exist
only on paper and the first mentioned
extends to tho farm of Hon. Jacob
Klacr, one and a half miles from Port

Hillside Home during the past ten
years.
He left tile Home Thursday, and

of his brother, ths late Michael Mc

SCRANT0N MEN
IN BIG SCHEME
WILL REVOLUTIONIZE TELE
PHONE BUSINESS.
Company Controlling tho "Central
ess" Tolophone System and An
other Company Installing One of
tho New-Fnnglcd Plants In Chi
cago, Have local CapltnllBts for
Officers and a Big Wad of Ii6cal
Capital for Tholr Backing Work
ings of the Now System.
In yesterduy's New York Herald ap
peared an Interesting article on tho
passing of tho telephone girl. Tho
"passing" Is innile possible, or rather
Imperative, by the automatic telephone
exchange. Tho article Is extremely In
teresting of itself, but It Is of especial
local Interest, because of the fact that
Scranton plays an Important part In
the automatic telephone.
First the article; then tho local
flavor:
."Hello Contrail" was one ot tlio nineteenth
century' pet plir.iea, with its nnsweilng cry, in
dulcet or fliarp lonct, from romo feminine tlirtnt
far away, "What number, please!" Hut "Hello,
Onlial!" now that the twentieth century H
here, promises soon to be a phrase merely historic.
Science has made a stride forward. Tho "hello
girl," presiding genius of the telephone cer blnee
Its Installation, must seek fresh emplojnient be
fore long-, l'or there has arrhed, and Is now in
practical, successful operation, a glrllcss, central
Icm telephone s.i stem, with VUitth, with a few
twists of a curious dial, any one can get tliu
number he wants, directly, in a few second
N'o delay, no middcniui; leply, "They're Iiuiy,
'II let jou know!" lurks In the ieccws of this
r.ew Instrument. No' third person sits In the
t.intallzinir soniewhcie, icady to "listen in," If
the pleads to cut oil the hurried man or the
flurried woman at will, to JujtkIc with wires, put
in and pull out plug, and when the subscriber
is driven to the cip;e of desperation not infre
quently to "talk back."
HAS A PRIVATE "WIRE.
On the contrary, he who "calls tip" now, if ho
be on the lino of the new telephone, has at once
a pilvalc wire in his hand.
He slips a tinsel tip into cue of the ten little
holes along the cut in; sides of this metal dial
on the telephone bo (the holes ale numbered 0
to 9), haling firet taken the icceher off its hook,
lie jerks the dial aiound sluiply until It catches.
Swung on a p!ot the diil moves easily and
quickly. It moes back to Its plicc automatic
ally. If 2,741 is the number to be i ailed, the linn
inserts his linger In the Xo. 2 hole ami makes the
hist moement. l'or Nos. 7, 4 and 1 he twists
the dial in the same wa.
As the disk dually ionics bad; to its starting
point he preves a, button just h"low. At the
other end tho bell is alieady ringing-. The con
nection has been made, the pcison called in four
to flic seconds.
Had the other end of the wtie been "busy,"
the man would hae braid, after he had gone
tlnotiKh thee rapid motions, a faint blazing
bound. Automatically, again, does this telephone
announce the fact that .my other wire is en
gased. Otbeiwirp, if the finger is put into tho
right holes, the proper number is seemed In
fallibly. The delicate, complicated, perfect me
chinlsiu behind it all ncer fails. Operated on
mathematical principals it is omcr een than
huniju hamh.
A big, lure room, filled witli lows of high
kej boards of glistening metal, is the sulolltuto
for "ccnlial." A strange "central" this, in
deed! It is nothing but a machine loom, with a
single electrician listening to the constant dklcs.
Thet.c begin at one low of boau!.s, they are echoed
on to a second, thenio to a thiid.
XO OPERATORS.
There is no sign of a petticoat or any i-ort of a
telephone operator. The man in chaigc has sim
ply the task of keeping this machine in ordei.
Satmday night he, with the drills in the fiont
cilice and the manager, locks up the etliange,
not to return until Jlouday morning. And
thiongh men nights in the week and all day
feunday the esclnnge clicks .i.y, the sen Ice
goes on without a hitch, with no human hands
to aid it.
The bant;3 ot iiistiuments in the loom click
away, subsci ibers call each other as they plea.se,
the "wipers" inoe up and down the "Mdectois."
The telephone sill is truly passing. She is no
nioie a modem necessity.
l'all 1th cr, Mass., has the most complete, laig
et and most piacticaliy operated of all the girl
less telephone systems of Atneiica, thoug It is
closely pressed by those of New- lledfoid, neaiby,
and Augusta, Ga, The latter cities lue each
more than lite hundred subaciibci on tlieio au
tomatic wires.
I'all Piter has seven hundred, howoter, and ap
pieciatiou of this, senlce in this New Ihighnd
mill town is rapidly growing. Yet the!e tluee
cities aie but a few ot those that operate tele
phones of the new older with no girl at "i:en

I.ea, Minn. ; Auburn, X", Y, ; MadKou, Wis.;
l'llneeton, X". .).; Ithaca, X". Y., and ecn the
far distant wilds of hkaguay, Alaska, all hate
automatic telephones.
Hut the going of the telephone gill Is on no
null sin ill scale as this shoit list would Indicate,
'the Ceiinaii government' has experimented, and
Miccessfully, with the new intention. It has had
a dial i-ct of ke.tboaids for tOO mom libers woik

In lbitaua, Cuba, the giiljess telephone is to
bo the bjsteni of the Cuban capital, Twi'iity
lite bundled iiistrununbi hate been oiduird to
begin with, and tin thousand altogether are to
be put in place as soon us possible,
A curious clicuiiistaucc lias led to the choosing
of this "no ccnlial" phono lor llutana, so the
story goes. It is said that the difficulty of get.
ting "cential" girls who could speak nil the
languages leiiulied would bo too great. At all
ctcnts no telephone girls .ne to bo theie.
Hut It Is in Chicago that the "hello gill"
will find her first inipoitant Waterloo, Already
the tables aril being laid, Hee will be estali
lUheel the first ccntralless telephone) ststcnt of the

start off with fifteen thousand antophoncs, with

Ilttranrdluarily iiitcrestine; are the details ot
this mechanism that kiiii to tonic more nearly

and set they are i-o Intricate, and complicated
that they aie alniort beyond the cumpiehenslpii

"Kach man his own telephone operator" Is sim
ple enough, but the method by which, in the
limits of a single room, one line picks up an
other without human aid, in a erj- small frac
tion of a minute, holds flic two together ns long
as elesiicd, and then, upon the simple hanging up
of the receiver, disconnects them, is nothing short
of the peifcctlon ofiniodern science.
Hut one man, life eipert electrician, is sta

C. D. SIMPSON PRESIDENT.
These "centraless" telephones arc all
owned and controlled, not only m the
United States, but tho world over, by
a company of which C. D. Simpson, of
this city, is president, and the com
pany eng-ac;ed in installing the new
phono In Chicago has Edwin "V. Gear
heart, of this city, as Its secretary.
Both companies have many Scranton
men in their make-up.
The company owning and controlling
the phones is the Automatic Electric
Telephone company. It is capitalized
at $2,000,000. JIr. Simpson Is Its presi
dent and in the directorate are T. II.
Watklns and Edwin "V. Gearhart. of
Scranton; C. B. Eddy, of New Mexico,
anil J. 13. Itussell, of Wilkes-Barro. A
number of local men are anions its
stockholders.
The company Installing the plant in
Chicago Is the Illinois 'Telegraph and
Telephone company':-' It is eapituliezd
at $.-i,000,000. A. G. Wheeler, of Chi
cago, Is its president; Edwin W. Gear
hart Is secretary, anil Messrs. Simpson
and "Watklns are among Its directors.
Local parties hold $2,000,000 worth of its
bonds. Among its stockholders are the
local men above mentioned and 'YV. II.
Gearhart, ('. S. Weston, Reese G.
Brooks, T. H. D'lle, N. E. Rice, of
Scranton; Dr. Bullard and Messrs.
Russell, Flick and Hollenbeck, of
WIlkes-Baire,
AT WORK IN CHICAGO.
Two miles of wires have already been
laid In the down-town, or buslnes-s dis
trict of Chicago, and by June 1, 0,000
telephones will be installed. Even
tually, the company proposes to have
100,000 telephones in use in Chicago.
The phones are put In without cost to
the subscriber, after the fashion of a
telegraph messenger call box. There is
an automntic meter connected with
each phone to register the calls. A
charge of so much per message Is made
until $85 is reached. Everything above
that Js iigured as free. The Bell com
pany In Chicago charges $175 a your for
a business phone, without legard to
the amount of business.
The Luxury of Modem Hallway
Travel to Florida and the South.
The gratitute of tourists who appre
ciate the acme of luxury In railway

by year they have adopted every Im
provement that c'ould add In any way
to the comfort of that nrmy of visitors
who jiitike their winter home in the
vast territory covered by Its network
of lines.
An example of the supeili trains
