BAR HARBOR VS.. WEST SULLIVAN.
The Bar Harbor high school base ball
team defeated West Sullivan high at
West Sullivan last Saturday after hard
uphill fight. The Bar Harbor team was
handicapped by the loss of three of its
best players. Smith broke his finger the
Saturday previous and Hamor and Hig-
gins got left behind at Bar Harbor.
The game was exciting throughout, the
score being tied three times. After the
fourth inning it looked rs If West Sulli-
van had a picnic until the eighth when
the Bar Hsrbor boys took brace and
made four runs, tying the score 10 to TO-
By good batting and base running the
Bar Harbor boys managed to gain three
runs in their half of the ninth. West
Sullivan scored twice in the ninth, and
Salisbury retired the side by striking out
the next three men in succession.
The features of the game were the catch
OF high fly in centre field by Archie
Havey, he smallest man in the Sullivan
club, and the work of Havey and Carpen
ter on the bases for West sullivan; for
Bar Harbor the running catch of long
fly by Richardson, who had to run over
piece of ploughed ground, and the work
of Roberts behind the bat. this being his
second game in that position, and Ben
nardini, and Carter's work on the bases.
Batteries Roberts and Salisbury for Bar
Harbor; r. havey and Mattocks for West
Sullivan.

ELECTRIC CABS.
They are Now In Service in the City
Of New York.
Are Likely to Revolutionize ths Cab
System OF the Metropolis.

New York, April 1.-The electric cab
system has beon established, and has been
in operation since last Saturday. II is
yet in its infancy, but the promoters
predict the certain doom OF the horse.
The Electric Carriage and Wagon Com
pany was organized several months ago.
Isaac l.. Rice IL president and W. W.
Gibbs, vice president The stable is in
Thirty-ninth street, just west of Broad
way, and the factory IL in Philadelphia.
When the company was organized II was
intended to manufacture the electric yehi-
clos only 20 sell. 1t soon became the
opinion of the officers, however, that they
could practically rcvolutionizc the entire
cab system of the city by competing with
the livery stables This they will do, but
there will be no cutting OF rates.
7. Before establishing the electric cab
system IL was necessary for the officers of
the company to havc special ordinance
passed by the the Board of Aldermen
permitting the horseless vehicles TO ply
for hire in the streets of New York. This
ordinance has been signed:by the Mayor
At present the company has about n
dozen cabs, and only six OF these have
been licensed, but many more are being
built.
The hansoms in use are fitted with two
one and e-half horse power motors, both
attached to the front axle. The mechanism
Is easy of control, the manufacturers as-
serting that any man cin operate one Of
the vehicles after fifteen minutes prac-
ticc.
They will be run through the streets nj
an acreage speed Of eight miles AN hour,
but thcy can cover fifteen miles an hour
when necessary. The cost Of the now con
vcyanocs will not bo much higher than
the price of a horse and old style car
riugc. and the charging of the batteries
viii he inexpensive
A test made Yesterday proved that th,
| meteor vehicles Will run twenty five miles
without a rechargng Of the batteries. Ih'
| electric carriages can bc ordered Ivy tac-
| phone. and since Saturday when the sys
TEN was put In operation Superintendent
| Adams says tho company has been busy
responding 10 calls. The superintendent
thinks IL IL n question Of only n short tim,
when every stable keeper will either have
| 10 buy motor vehicles or go out of busi
| ness.
I've have no intention Of competing
( with the hack drivers by cutting rates,
