Municipal trials and troubles were

The difficulty arose over the Interior

railroad men. In putting up the guy
wires for the companys trolley wires

ed that the trouble was located in the
East End, and due to the fire alarm
wires and the Elm Groves wire touch
ing each other.
He went out to McColloch street, In
company with Mayor Butts, whose at
tentlon he called to the matter They
explained the situation TO some OF the
men, but didn't receive much satisfac-
ton. About l o'clock the chief and
Charley Kurner returned to the scene,
and Kurner was instructed to climb the
poles and separate the eity's wire from
the company's. This he commenced to
do. Securing a ladder ne started on his
mission, and Rinsler then ordered one
OF his men. Beal. to Jerk the ladder
away, The order was obeyed and kur-

Again the chief consulted the city's
executive, and orders were Issued for
the arrest OF Rlnsler and Beal, an OPP

Shortly afterward they were released.
They will have hearing In this morn

terfering with a fireman in discharge

In the meantime Kurner secured an
other ladder and going over the sew

dropped on the arms or tied to pins

touch or be fastened TO anything but
insulators; the circuit should not be

mend that the present three circuits be
split up into five; the tower bell striker

there are three circuits outside, they

a six circuit repeater would be the
very best means by which your circuits
could be separated so that any trouble
existing on any one circuit could not
affect any other. 1t also automatically
and lnstantaneously throws out Of ser
vice a broken line, thus keeping the
other five circuits still In perfect oper-
alton. The alarms are repeated auto
matically from one circuit to all others

Vices and machinery II the city can
not afford to install repeater In the
system, it should at least furnish a
combination switchboard. This, to-
gether with the new lines properly con-
structed and the overhaulins of the
boxes by your care-taker, would again
put your entire system in FIRST class and
reliable shape.
