INTERLOCKlNG SIGNALS.
No Two Trains Can Enter the Tamaqua
Tunnel.

No Two Trains Can Enter the Tamaqua
Tunnel.
The new signal tower containing inter
locking switches which was recently erected
at the Tamaqua tunnel is a great improve
ment to that part Of the Reading road. In
the tower is a twenty lever interlocl1ing
machine which operates a number of switches
and signals. In addition to mechanical
locks, each switch is provided with electrical
locks, so arranged that the presence of "a
train in the tunnel will lock the home signals
at danger through a tract circuit.
The distant signals are provided with
electric repeaters to indicate to the leverman
the position of his signals. This is accom-
plished by the use of miniature signals
placed in the tower in front of the levers
operating the signals, and is operated by
magnets in the distant signal circuits.
Anuunciators are used to announce the
approach of trains in both directions, op-
Grated electrically a mile and half distant
from the tower, allowing the leverman to
set his switches and properly lock them and
clear his signals for the approaching train.
Derails are placed at each end of the tun-
mel so that it will be impossible for two
trains to occupy the tunnel at one time.
With this arrangement it would seem that
the company has taken every possible care
fore the safety of the travelling public.

House Passes General Koontz's Bill
Enlarging the Committee.
Harrisburg. March THE hall of the
house of representatives was crowded
with spectators last evening in anticipa
ton Of a renewal Of last Fridays scenes.
Speaker Farr called the house to order
shortly after 8 o'clock and announced
that the first order Of business was re-
ports from committees. Several bills
were reported, after which a number
Of appropriation bills were introduced.
Then Mr. Koontz, of Somerset, Of
fered a resolution calling for the APP
pointment of four additional members Of
the committee to investigate the charges
of bribery in connection with the pass
age of the McCarrell jury bill in the
house. The resolutions provide tina.
Messrs. Robert X. Young of Tioga and
Randall of Chester (RepublcaDs) and
Dixon of Elk and Fow Of Philadelphia
(Democrats) ARE hereby appointed ad
ditional members Of the committee, with
instructions to hear such testimony as
may be offered pursuant to said resolu-
tions."
There was a lengthy discussion, dur
ing which Mr. Koontz criticized the reso-
lutlOnS Wnlcn tne cOmmlJJee ndu duOpJeu,
and insisted that if the inquiry was con-
Quoted along these lines there would be
no investigation. If the accused. were
given II hours notice to appear before
the committee he would have ample time
to get to Canada or to leave his country
for his country's good. He demanded
that these resolutions be set aside by the
committee and that the investigation be
conducted properly and legally.
After a number of amendments had
been voted down the Koontz resolutions
were adopted. A resolution placing John
B. Brooke on the investigating commit
tee in place of Mr.. Skinner, resigned
was declared out of order on the ground
that the appointment belonged to the
speaker under the original resolution.

such remark.
He left his study about the usual hour,
at o'clock last evening, telling Montjarret,
chief of his stables, that he would ride on
horseback from to 1::So on the following
morning. He then retired to his private
apartments, dined with his family, went to
bed at 10 o'clock, got up this morning at g,
and at once Informed his valet that he
would not ride.

this hurried to the president, whom he
