the New System.

Yesterday morning at eight o'clock, a
force of men was put to work changing
the overhead cables, to adjust them to
the new spring trolley system which

tension Of the electric motor line, and
II it proves success, afterward intro
duced on the "loop," and in North
Wheeling. The hangers are reversed,
the wires running beneath, and are so
adjusted as to be as nearly as possible
of uniform height. The work was fin
ished yesterday as far down as White

THE New York EUeRtng Post makes a
strong point against the McKinleyites.
Last fall, >" it says, latter the storm of
public vengeance had fallen on the Nc
Kinleyites, they began TO say with oH~
accord that there had not been time to
test the measure. Give them a few
months and they would show such
state Of prosperity that everyone would
feel in his own pocket and business how
great a boon it was. Well, the few
months, six, or seven, or eight OF them
have come and gone, and what do we
behold? Confessedly the worst period
that the iron trade has ever known
and the iron trade is usually taken by
statisticlans as an index and thermome-

"MRs. A. W." has been writing to

MABEL, who lives in Brooklyn, says
that Mrs. A. w. needn't find fault with
