suit of Thomas w. Pearsall Of New

state will step into the case on the
theory that the completion of the pro-

QUAY'S DASH.
ny It He Scores u Great Victory for
Himself.


Harrisburg, Pa. Aug. Ex-senator
Quay and his followers made a bold
dash to-day in the fight for republican
supremacy in this state by taking pos
session of the state committee and de-
posing Il. +. Gilkeson from the chair
manshlp. Their object In doing this
was to place themselves In position
to prepare the rolls OF the delegates to
Wednesdays convention so that they
might appear before that body with a
prima facle case. What the effect OF
this movement will be cannot yet be
foretold and the next movement OF the
Hastings people Is looked for with
great interest. The situation In gen.
eral tonight Is Intensely exciting and
altogether uncertain. Both factions
are claiming victory, but II must be
admitted that those who are oppsing
the aspirations of Senator Quay are
the most serene and confident. The
delegates are slow In arriving, not
more than so of the 2S9 having reached
the city. As they arrive they are con-
fronted for the first time In the history
OF the republican party In this state
by dual headquarters OF the state COM
mittee :. One OF these Is at Common
wealth hotel and Is in charge OF Mr..
Gilkeson. who Is assisted by A. ID. Fot-
terhoff. secretary Of the committee.
The other Is at the Lochlel hotel and
had been engaged by Chairman Gllks-
son and when he came to take posses
sion this morning he found that Sena-
tor Quay's followers had captured the
room. Seventy-three of the lsl mem
bers Of the state committee attended
tho meeting held this afternoon in the
interest OF Quay.

ROMANCE WITH A MORAL.

The latest true story, the sequel 4Of
which is of unusual interest to mer-
chants in general is told in the follow
ing short romance in real life, culled
from a California paper: A few weeks
ago young man bought a pair of
socks contain ing a note saying that the
writer was an employe of the Kenosha,
Wis, knitting works, and wanted a
good husband. She gave her name,
and requested the buyer, if unmarried,
to write with a view to matrimony.
The young man who found the note
considered the matter in all its phases,
and then decided to write to the girl.
He did. Awaiting with anxiety, he
was at last rewarded with a curt let
ter, stating that the girl was now the
mother of two children and had been
married four years, and the letter had
been written ever so long. 1t was a
'isockdolager," and the young man
hunted for a solution. He found it.
The merchant Of whom he bought the
socks doesn't advertise.

ductors connected at the top to the
motor cables, and at the bottom
riveted 20 two other pieces of sheet
steel. These run on each side Of the
plough and serve as supports for the
hinges which carry the sliding contact
pieces. a heavy sheet Of fiber contil-
ues downward and serves to separa te
these contacts.
This system seems to offer the best
solution yet discovered for electric
traction on city streets without incur
ring any popular odium from what is
called the trolley difficulty. 1t is free
from the Objectionable features char
acteristic Of other methods attempted
elsewhere. Instead of a plough fitted
with wheels running under or over
wires strung in the conduit, instead of
any Of the other numerous and elab-
crate eXpedientS to secure a worka BILE
underground conduit electrical system,
a surprisingly simple method of con-
tact is adopted This new system is
cheap and easy to install, can be kept
in repair at small cost, and can be in
spected without difficulty. The intro
duction Of this system in New York,
where the crying need for rapid transit
is almost equaled by the determination
not to admit the overhead trolley, is
only a start. Its satisfactory opera
ton, safety and economy, when com
pared with cable or horse traction,
will probably result in its general
adoption upon the surface roads, and
another step toward real rapid city
transit will be made.
The motors employed are the stand
ard General Electric 800 machines,
controlled by N2 controllers, and the
cars which are used on the line resem-
BILE those used on the Broadway cable
line. They are lighted by nine incan-
descent lamps arranged in groups Of
three each.
