TWO BANKS AT WAR.

| THE CONTEST ASSUMES A CONIICAL AS
PECT-A wHEELBARROw LOAD OF
SILVER.
Philadelphia Letter to Cleveland Leader, April H.
The refusal of the City National Bank
of Salem, n. j., to accept certain terms
of exchange offered by the Woodstown,
n. j., National Bank has involved those
institutions in war which has assumed
comical aspect AS the bank receives
on deposit daily large number of the
Woodstown bank checks, a messenger
is dispatched to the latter place, eight
miles distant, twice week, to receive
the money for the same. In order to
punish the Salem people, Cashier Fit
craft imported from Philadelphia thous-
ands of dollars in silver coin, counted
out in bags, to meet those checks semi
weekly. Messenger Powell, whom the
Salem Bank sent down last week, pro-
tested, whereupon Cashier Flitcraft
yesterday, when Powell appeared with
81 300 in checks, wheeled out the mon
ey in a wheelbarroW to the middle of
the bank and dumped the whole amount
loose on the floor, compelling Powell to
count out the entire amount. When
bags were asked for in which to carry
the money to Salem, Cashier Flitcraft
politely responded that banks were not
in the habit of furnishing their patrons
with purses. Powell sent back for a
team and armed guard to assist him in
the transportion of his burden. The war
continues and is the topic of conversa-
tion of the citizens of the county.

SHORTENING THE LINE.

How Contraction and Expansion OF
the Rails Affect Railroads.
| From the Philadelphia Record.
"The distance by rail from Philadel.
phia to New York is longer in sum
mer than in win ter, remarked pro.
minent railroad official quizzically
yesterday. THAT seems strange, nc
doubt, but you can state 1t on my auth
ority as well-asceEtained fact.
What is the case? 1t is the expansion
and contraction which the rails I'M
dergo as the temperature changes.
The heat in summer draws them out;
the frosts of winter shorten them
again.
This is fact that the railroad en-
gineer has to take into account when
he is track laying. His operations
mometer. In midsummer, with the
mercury at 80 degrees, it is safe to
lay tracks tight together with close
joints, for the further expansion need
not be feared. But if the work is
going on in cold weather an aperture
between the rails must be left, the
colder the wider; and when the work.
man is ignorant of this point his track
will in summer time be forced out
of line. A neat calculation must be
made, for while it was absolutely
necessary that room for expansion
be given the space should beassmall
as may be, or there will be needless
iolting at the joints.
at is easy to calculate how much
shorter the track between this city
and New York Is in winter than in
summer. If the temperature be at
zero an engineer will leave space
not far from quarter of an inch
from the rail ends. The average rail
is 30 feet long, and since there are
$3.50 feet in mile the space between
the rails will mount to at least A in
ches in that distance; or estimating
the distance to New York at ninty
miles, there will be 1860 inches of in
terstices, or $50 feet. In summer
time'the splices will have disappeared
"This divergence would be marked
in a long-distance ride. If a railroad
line was laid straight for 5000
miles across the Uuited States it
would be found by measurements
that the track was two miles shorter
in winter than in summer. This is
a difference worth considering when
one is planning transcontinental
journey.

About ST. Mary'S Street.

Editor LIGHT:
Several people have spoken to me in
reference to "local" in the Express
this day, purporting that Mayor CAL
laghan said "that he doubted if they
would report in favor of opening the
(St. Mary's) street, AS it was on my
motion in the council that the award
etc., of the commissioners was re-
jected, l might say for the proper un-
derstandIng of my action, that l was
not opposed to the amount of damages
awarded, $4,000 for property to be
condemned, but to the small amount
assessed to property owners for bene-
fits accruing on account of said WIDEN
ing. All property on Commerce street
from Corcoran to Yturri streets will
be surely benefited by the con-
templated improvement and most as
suredly the property on ST. Mary's
street from Houston to the river will
be greatly advanced in value by the
the extension. A very conservative
citizen said to me yesterday that the
property north of the bridge was now
lying dormant but by making the inn
provement it would enhance in
value 100 per cent. The council have
by ordinance determined the manner
and extent of widening the street and
/ have no doubt the commissioners
will make their award of damages
and benefits satisfy the property own
ers and city council. 1t must be re-
mem bered that after the city pays her
pro rata of the expense in condemn
ing the Grandjean property it will
have to pay for the first-class iron
bridge with abutments and improve
the new street from Commerce to the
river. which at fair estimate will be
about SIS, 600, therefore those who will
be benefited by the valuable i'm
provement should be expected to
come down handsomely for same.
Yours Respectfully,
JOHN Fl. BOLTON,
Alderman at Large.

An Expert Opinion.

The Carly fishpond, situated on
Cevallos and South Laredo streets,
seems to have suddenly become an
eye sore in the estimation of some of
the men living down that way, since
Mr.. NJ. s. Carly died and his widow
has been struggling with the aid of
the fishpond, to exc out a living for
herself and little ones. Now it is
charged that the owners death and
the illness of his daughter was due
entirely to the presence of this pond
DR.. Cross, the eminent physician who
attended both cases, says he heard
these rumOrs and investigated the
causes leading to the illness of both
patients. He examined the fish
ponds, and found the large lake fed
by running stream and drained by
running stream. 1t is fresh water
all the time and is no more unhealthy
than the West End lake, the river or
any other running stream. He Or
dered the small ponds to be emptied,
however, as they were not so well
drained, and this Mrs. Carly has
done and will incorporate them in
the limits of the park she
desires to establish The real cause
of sickness in this family, says DR..
Cross, was the waters of an old stink
Ing we'll they used. He examined
this we'll water and found it full of Or
ganic matter, we'll loaded to produce
disease. This was the cause of sick
ness and not the fish pond.
DR.. Cross opinion, as an eminent
physician and scientist, both in this
city and in Little Rock, Arkansas, is
well worth paying heed to, and should
forever set at rest the attempt of the
aldermen to have the ponds abolish
ed and the widows subsistence cut
off
