HARD ON THE CONDUCTORS.
New System OF Transfers Inaugurated by
the Officers Of the Belt
Line Railroad.

the Officers Of the Belt
Line Railroad.
The Belt Line Railway Company now re-
quires that every man applying for conduc-
tors place should have gigantic memory.
This is due to the fact that the company will
not issue q transfer to a person that has
already been transferred, and the conductor
who happens to do this is very apt to hear
from 1t sooner or later from the company's
officials
The many free rides gotten out of the COM
pany by the transfer system of late caused
the board ofdirectors to sit in solemn judg
ment on the matter and after several sessions,
TO every one of which the question of how
can the cheats" be beaten grew more diff
ticult, the problem was apparently solved by
an order being issued as follows: Transfers
good only to the next transfer point"
This order was printed and posted up in
each car on July 1. When those accustomed
to get tranifer on a transfer found out that
the free excursion piece OF paper could not
be obtained readily as in days gone by cry
went up that the Belt Line was charging
double fare. Itwas statedthat the greatest num-
ber of transfers were issued at Eleventh and
G. streets northwest and this was claimed to
class is called who got the all-around town
rides by the transfer system-got in their
work.
As an example of how the matter is now
arranged, a person who gets a transfer for the
Belt line at Eleventh and G streets must be
careful about the car he gets in. II he boards
n yellow north-bound car of the Eleventh
street line with transfer it will take him to
the terminus at Eleventh street and Florida
avenue. but no transfer will be issued to him
should be want to change cars at Eleventh
and streets. Any one, therefore, wanting
to go out street from the Eleventh and G
streets corner can do so by waiting at that
point for the chocolate-colored ear, that goes
through o street.
The conductors say that the rule is hard
upon them, as they have TO remember faces
Of persons who get transfers so that they will
not issue any to them a second time. Not
withstanding the new regulation people
manage TO get transfers a second time. This
fact the employees admit. They say it is an
impossibility to keep the run OF faces OF peo-
pie who get in the cars at the five different
transfer points ON the Belt line. They deny
that a double fare is charged. although the
system in practice makes il appear that way.

DEAD HORSES ALL REMOVED.

Last of the Carcasses Taken Down the
River Yesterday-No Further Arrests.
The work of removing the dead horses from
the ruins OF the Knox storage warehouse was
completed yesterday at o'clock in the after
noon.
The last Of the offensive carcasses was
taken down the river to Patsy Mann's place
on the Maryland shore, where all the car
casses have been incinerated.
The removal of all the debris will COM
mence to-day in real earnest. as the Knox
firm desires 10 commence rebuilding as soon
as possible. They do not, they say, appre-
hend the slightest difficulty in obtaining a
full and final settlement from all the insur-
ance companies.
No further arrests in connection with the
fire have been made. nor is ii likely there
will be any more unless something new de-
velops. Inspector Holinberger has no in
formation attaching accusations of crime
upon any one. he saws. and while his detec-
tives have not been instructed to relax their
vigilance and work. they do not expect TO
make any more arrests.

prevailing in the districts canvassed than in

WILL GO TO NEW YORK.
Ferris Wheel to Be an Attraction at
the MetrOnOlis.


the Metropolis.
Chicago, April 27.-Preliminary work
incident to the taking down of the Fer
ris wheel at Midway Plaissnce is now
going on, and consists Of fall work, en-
gines and hosting apparatus. Some
time next week the big wheel will turn
for the last time in Chicago. At that
time several Ferris wheel company
officials will ride around on the struts
that are still in place. Some will sim
ply hold on to the ten-inch iron beams,
while others, more timid, will be tied
on.
1t will take ten weeks to take the big
wheel to pieces. Fifty men will begin
the work, and several hundred will be
employed before the last bolt is with
drawn. The material will be loaded on
Illinois Central cars. The car that was
used for carrying the Krupp gun will
be used for the seventy ton axle. The
material VIII be taken in five trains of
thirty cars each to New York city.
There is 1000 tons of metal in the
wheel, and 100000 feet of timber is
needed for the false work. Taking the
wheel down will be more dangerous
than putting it up. Only one life was
lost in erecting the big attraction.
The expense of taking down, moving
and rebuilding the wheel will be $780,
600. In New York it is to be placed at
REIMBURSEMENT street and Bowery. Old
Vienna will be reproduced around it.
Here the wheel had 5000 electric lights;
in New York the number will be
doubled. The old Ferris Wheel COM
pany goes out of existence and a new
company composed of New York men
has been formed. Superintendent L. V.
Rice has charge of the removal
During the fair the wheel went
around 10000 times and carried 1000, 900
passengers. The largest single load
was carried October is, when at 1890
o'clock 1.76S. people were in the cars.
