The Readings Fall.
Receivers Appointed.

On Moaday last Judge Dallas ap-
pointed A. A. Mcleod, +. p. Wilbur
and Chief Justice Edwin NJ. Paxson as
receivers of the Reading Railroad
Company and its leased branches.
This was done on the application of
ex-senator Thomas C. Platt of New
York, who filed a bill in equity. The
crash was brought about by the fight
between President McLeod and !.
Pierpont Morgan for the control Of
New England railroad lines. This an
tagonized Morgan and others who had
been giving financial aid to the Read
ing, and they withdrew their support
and the Reading could not meet its
obligations. Mr.. Mcleod is still hope
full, and thinks everything will come
out all right.
Judge Paxson has sent his resigna
ton to Governor Pattison, who vii
fill the vacancy on the Supreme bench
by appointment

The Block System.

The city papers are condemning the
"Block System" of running trains and
are claiming that clear brain is safer
than any mechanical device. This is
true. The executive ability displayed
by the manner of the d. l.. & w.
railroad in its for,y-one years of exis-
tence, with but one accident on the
Main line in which a passenger was
killed, is really wonderful. During
the past fifteen years that VIM. +.
Hallstead has controlled the running
Of the road, the traffic has increased
seven fold or more. With the i'm
mense business which the road is do
ing-all that a double tracked road
can do--accidents to passengers are
unknown. The cause of this is not
because its employees are more careful
than on other roads; it is because of
the watchful eye which the General
Manager has on all his subordinates.
They know that he is looking after the
small details as well as those of larger
account Nicholson E.sa0aiuer.

A bill has been introduced in the
legislature to provide for the payment
of fees and mileage to jurors out of
the State Treasury. 1t is intended for
the relief of local taxation. Briefly the
bill provides that the Prothonotaries
or Clerks of Courts in the several
counties shall certify quarterly to the
Auditor General the amount Of jury
fees and mileage paid out, and the
Auditor. General shall draw 4 warrant
for the amount on the State Treasury,
who shall refund the money to the
counties. Senator McCarroll has
written to each county with view OF
ascertaining the amounts paid jurors
in fees and mileage in 1SS9-9o-9I,
and takes the average for the three
years. The aggregate in the State,
he says, will be about $500, 900.

The LehiCh and Wilkesbarre Coal

The Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal
Company has just contracted for hav-
ing an eight.inch bore hole sunk over
the abandoned workings Of their great
collicry, the Nottingham, at Plymouth.
1t will penetrate to depth of nearly
100 feet. and will then be used to flush
the worked out portions of the mine
with culm. 1t has been fonnd that
the cum thus flushed into the mines
solidihes firmly and furnishes an ade-
quate support for the strata from un,
der which the coal has been removed.
Under the present system only forty
to forty FIVE per cent. OF coal can be
taken out, the remainder beng left as
supports and pillars, Under this flush
ing process new support is furnished
and new chambers and breasts can be
driven around the solidltied culm, thus
making it possible to take out all bu;
five per cent. OF the entire deposit OF
coal as it originally existed.

Hon. James P. Sterrett, who be.
comes Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court of Pennsylvania by the resigna-
tion of Chief Justice Paxson, was elec-
ted in 1873 and consequently his term
does not expire until 1900. Should
he serve out his term he will have the
honor of having been Chief Justice of
the State for longer time than any OF
his predecessors since the Judge of the
Supreme Court was made elective and
the Chief Justiceship devolved on the
oldest Judge In commission.

The laying of track will soon be be.
gun. 1t is hoped to run coal trains to
Stroudsburg in May. The distance
between Wilkesbarre and New York
will be ten miles shorter by this route
than by any other. A large coal traffic
is assured. The company has secured
FIVE years lease of the Pennsylvania
Railroad docks at Jersey City for the
handling of their coal, and by the
time this contract expires the new
company will have completed their
own docks at Hoboken.

The amount of State taxes collected
through local authorities in the several
counties for 1892 was S2,365, ,9So.6I.
an increase S6I7,54o.95. The total
county debt for the year closed has
decreased from $S4,773,Ioa to sos,
6o2,5o2. There are 10 counties that
have no debt of any kind. Fifty six
of the 81 counties during the year
have expended $I,I7a,9I6,66 for the
support of the poor. 70 this should
be added $3.50, ,7a2. 90, expended for
the support of county almshouses.
Fifty eight counties report as collected

ally appropriated from the State
Treasury for the same purpose.

Queen Liliuokalani objects to being
deposed from the throne of the Sand
wich Islands, and has presented her
protest to this government. Princess
Kalulani, heir to the throne, who has
been in London several years, also
protests, and will come to this country
to present her claims in person. 1t is
likely that the Islands will be annexed
to this country, but the problem is not
yet solved.

The State Grange proposes to urge
the legislature vigorously on the bill
to repeal the mercantile tax, and tax
dealers on their actual sales for county
instead of for State purposes. The
Harrisburg Telegraph says the State
at present only receives about S4oo.-
900 annually from this tax, while $aoo,-
900 is spent for advertising the lists.
The Grangers estimate that there is
$500, 900, 900 invested in the mercan.
tile business, and the present tax is
less than one mill on this valuation.
Under these circumstances and as the
State does not need the money, it is
now proposed to have taxed solely for
local purposes by local assessors, and
at a mill rate not yet agreed upon. 1t
Is thought that by thus taking differ
ent subjects and framing a separate
bill for each, more satisfactory lcgisla-
ton can be had. Another is for the
taxation of transportation and trans
mission companies for local purposes
1t empowers for County Commission
ers to place valuation upon each
mile OF railroad in the county and as
sess four mill tax, for local purposes
upon this valuation. This is slmila
to the New York law. Telegraph
telephone and pipe lines are to b,
valued in the same manner and pa,
the same tax, and in appraising them
and railroads as well, the value of tn
franchises is to be taken into consider
alton. -Er.
