TROLLEY WON TBE FIGHT.
Holes Dug and Pole. Put Up In the Dead
of Nigh.

TRENTON. n. j., April THE fight Of
the Trenton Passenger Raj way Company
during the past four or five years to sup
plant its hOrse-car system On west state
street with electric cars was accomplished
last night after physical resistance on the
part of several property owners, VINO tried
10 prevent the putting in OF poles and
str.nging Of wires.
This morning electric cars were running
where only yesterday there was not the
slightest indication of such a result, ex-
cept the fact that the board Of works had
a month ago passed an ordinance grant
ing the company the right to DO so. The
company had accepted the ordnance ana
residents were waiting the nrst move 10
carry the matter to court. Last night
men appeared on the scene and began
digging holes for the poles. People OBJ
iected. and some property owners planted
themselves In holes and refused TO move,
but were dragged out and the work went
on.
At o'clock this morning Justice Van
SICKLE granted a writ of certiorari on APP
niication of Mrs Roebling who was one
Of those who tried TO prevent the poles
being put up. The writ was served at =
o'clock. but the work went on until ~
o'clock when the men were arrested on
complaint OF Street Commissioners Kulon.
Meanwhile poles had been put up ana one
wire strung. Cars are now being run
amid the cheers of the crowd, the OPP
moments Of the road being "A few residents
of west state street. The arrested men
gave bail
