The new-iangled Philadelphia plan OF poll

differs from the old method by making the
unit the election district instead OF the ward.
AS there are $50 election districts in tho city
and % in tho four county towns. the Republic
cans have separate associations dotted all over
Kings county.
The ward associations. composed Of dele
gates from the election district clubs. are the
next factor in the scheme. and the County
Committee made up OF delegates from tho
ward associations is the final controlling
body. This plan has a decided advantage
over the old Republican methods in Brooklyn

ARMING TIE TRAIN HANDS.
The Railroads VIII Make Train Robbinr
Unpopular as . Profession.


CHICAGO Sept. 2G-Armed men will accom-
pany every train hauling express or mail cars
from Chicago to any point east. west or south
in future. Two roads have already determined
to arm their mon. and in few days orders
will be issued by other roads running into
Chicago to supply repeaters to all trninmen
connected with trains hauling express cars.
This has been found a necessary provision
owing to the repeated robberies and attacks
on trains. supposed to be carrying q large
amount Of money.
Orders were issued by the President of the
Michigan Central yesterday that every train
man should be supplied with a couple OF re-
volyers and repeating rifle. This only refers
to those who travel with the trains hauling
american Express cars or mai cars.
We have determined to put n stop to hold
ups said o. w. Ruggles. the general passen-
ger agent OF tho Michigan Central. last night
This scheme OF tagging trains and then
shoot ing at the trainmen has become too FREE
quent to be pleasant. Not only are we resolved
to protect our own men from injury but We
are fully determined to protect to the best OF
our ability the money inrusted to our care
Every man on the rennsylvania lines will also
be armed in similar manner"
We intend to supply every trainman with
repeating shotgun" said +. j. Wall. tho
assistant to, tho First yico, President OF tho
ipennsylyania road. last night. whenever
the train carries an express car or q mail car
The recent robberies have compelled lis to
take this measure; It Is understood that tho
Kock Island the Wabash the Illinois Central
and other roads will take the same precautions
