II is learned from reliable authority
that the Pennsylvania Is considering
the adNisability of placing an automa-
tic signal system on locomotives. An
invention known as the Miller system
has been tested by the Chicago &
Eastern Illinois Railroad between Dol
ton and Momence, Ill.,, a distance OF
sixty-three miles This system has
been in experimental use for some time
on length of six miles OF track of this
road between Chicago Heights and
Thornton Junction. Only one engine
however was equipped until few
days ago, when the engines plying be-
tween Dolton and Momence were in
stalled by the system.
This line is divided into block sec
tions of suitable length. and adjacent
block sections are separated by an in
sulated track section one rail in length
The track batteries are placed at these
points, the positive wire being con-
nected to the insulated rail and the
negative wire to the rail to the block
section in the rear. The rails in each
block are bonded in the usual way.
In the engine cab are two incande-
scenCe signal lamps, one white and the
other red, one or the other of these is
always burning. Current Is supplied
by battery on the engine or tender, and
is switched from one lamp to the other
by an instrument operated by the
track circuit. Each axle has electrical
connection with a conductor leading to
the instrument on the engine. When
| the wheels enter the insulated section
a. a'sstn sf, ,.l t., - \
| the current passes from the rail
through the wheel conductor and cab
instrument switching the lighting cir
| cult to the red lamp.
| The signal is always given two
| blocks back from the obstruCted block,
| or the train order signal, so that when
| the red lamp burns the engineman
| knows that he has one clear block in
/ which to stop his train. The red lamp
burns when a switch is open, a block
| section occupied or a train order signal
| displayed.
The result Of the experiment made
| on the Chicago & Eastern Illinois rail-
| road shows that II is much superior
| than the block system. which is i'm use
| on large number of railroads at the
| present time. The block system is op-
! Grated by man in a signal tower and
| should he ever fail to do his duty the
block system is of no use. But with
| the automatic system no person is re-
| quired. the only essential thing neces-
| sary being to keep the circuit wires
| charged properly 1t can be maintain
ed with much less expense than the
block system and is as safe, If not
safer.
Now that the Miller system has been
| tested with satisfactory results it is
| said that the Pennsylvania Railroad
will adopt the system in the near flu
| ture. The majority of the trains on
| the Pennsylvania railroad are operat-
| ed by the block system, but the new
system could be installed with little
| expense. The new system will do
| away with the high salaried men To-
Gated in the towers, operating the block
| system.

THIS YEARS BOWLING.
Tournament Will Soon Be Under
Way-Mitchell and Deitrick Did
Not Meet Tuesday.

The bowling match scheduled for
Tuesday night between Deitrick, of the
Rosoville Athletic club, and George
Mitchell, of the Bicycle club, accord
ing to a local paper, did not take place
on the date mentioned. Mr. Mitchell
is out of the city and has been for some
time, and moreover the club alleys are
still closed, and it IL therefore more
than likely that no match was ever ar
ranged. The bowling season. will start.
however, within the next few weeks.
Nothing has been done yet towards
calling a meeting To organize a league,
but bowlers Of this and Luzerne coun-
ty are awaiting the summons for a
session, to be issued by either Charles
Fowler, of the Green Ridge Wheeluen,
or John =. Hunter. of the Wilkes Barre
West End club, both Of whom have
played prominent parts in previous
years in making the preliminary ar
rangements for the league rolling.
At present the uppermost question
in the minds of those prominent in last
years league is whether TO form an
entirely club league, drawing the con-
teStantS from the various b-county
wheelmen's clubs, or to again leave in
the alien teams, from the Backus and
Elks' alleys.
1t is most likely that the league
tournaments of this year will be again
contested with the same teams. as in
preceding years, as drawing the line
on the Backus and Elk teams would
shut out some of the City's crack bowl
crs, notably Hopkins, last years cap
