AL Streator, the initiator of the novel
head-end collision which was so much
talked of some time since, said, while in
conversation with News reporter, that
the plan was meeting with very good sue
cess. Already 81, 900 has been subscribed
and the Canton merchants were respond
ing very literally. 1t certainly will lack
no exciting qualities As grand sight it
will excel everything in that line yet
thought of. Plans are not yet completed
but each day sees something accomplished
and the plan will undoubtedly be matured
very shortly.

The state board of health has been
asked TO approve the plans Of Alliance for
the proposed system Of purifying the sew
age of that city. The plan embraces
what is known as the intermittent flltra-
tion system turning the sewage into beds
prepared for its reception and publication.
Recently the state board refused to APP

plated the emptying Of the sewage into
the MahOning river and suggested the
preparation of plans for the publication

Elusive and inaccessible.
However, the faculty. realizing that the

give those who failed in the first exam

Defective Electric Lighting

PASADENA, May 25.-The Pasadena
Electric Light and Power company has
hot yet succeeded in remedying the de-
fects in its servicec caused by the burning
out OF An armature few days ago, but
it is expected that few days more will
suffice to make all as good as new again
and all the lights will be again burning:
Pasadenans who feel at all disposed to
grumble at the temporary loss OF very
few lights-whch will not ba for more
than few days al. told-should be re-
minded of the reign OF Egyptian dark
nessnow bel ng enjoyed by the temporary
metropolis of the great state of Califor-
MIA. adopted as money saving scheme
in the dire extremity occasio.id by lack
OF the wherewithal to run the city. When
Pasadena becomes a part of the future
metropolis, which is destined to ex-
tend from the mountains to the
sea. there will never be such Ia pse
into bacIwoods darkness in this neck O.
the woods. we venture to say.
The present electric company is now
increasing the size and capacity of its
plant by putting in a 250.horse power
engine and 1900 light dynamo.

Associated Press Special Wire.
NEW YORK, May 23.-Two reasons for
G. p. Huntington's trip abroad are said
to be the sale of portion of the new
Southern Pacific bonds under the $780,,
COO, 100 mortgage which was authorized
last year for various purposes, includin 6
the funding Of the floating debt, and a
personal conference with the Panama
canal interests, which own the Panama
railroad. In addition to these things
Huntington will confer with Englishm en-
about the Central Pacific matters and try
to reach satisfactory understanding or
an extension of interest on the bonds and
dividends on the stock.
One purpose of the new Southern Pa
cifc mortgage, it may be stated, will be
to facilitate the liquidation of the affairs
of the Pacific Improvement company.
This company has not undertaken any
new obligations for more than a year, the
purpose being to wind up its affairs and
distribute its assets as soon as practicable.
There are outstandingagainst the Southern
Pacific floating debt upward OF SIG, 000. 600
of new bonds. and it is reported an effort
will be made to try to sell these and other
bonds of the new issue abroad in order to
clean up the floating liabilities and fur
nish the company with needed capital.
The money advanced was largely fur
nished by the Pacific improvement COM
pany. 1t is also reported that large in
terest in the Brooklyn Gas company,a G..
gregating So. .0O0,0 ,000 which was acquired
in the interest of the Pacific Improve
ment company, has been disposed of to
parties who are at present in control OF
gas companies.
Huntins ston, as president of the Pacific
Mail. has been unable to reach an under
standing with the Am erican directors OF
the Panama railroad and hostilities are ex-
pected to begin on June l. If he meets
the foreign stockholders of the railroad it
is believed that the negotiations will bear
| truit. Rumors were in circulation today
that he would offer to buy controlling
| interest in the stock. Huntington expects
to remain two months abroad and to spend
| a considerable part of his time in France.

Electric Railroad Employees Suspended

PASADENA, May 23.-While nothin G

there will be some changes in tie man
agement of the road, and while the en-
ployees directly connected with the ac-
ciden5 OF last Friday are all suspended
for ten days, there will probably be
further results. Some of the injured are
not recovering as rapidly as was ex-
pected. While the man whose leg was
broken is doing well, others seem to be
not so fortunate. Mrs. Eccleston is
thought to be on the verge of paralysis
as result of the shock and the injuries
she received.
