Cleveland Construction company is
undoubtedly the largest electric rail-
way construction company in Ohio.
Among the contracts which the COM
pany has secured in the past and the
constructions accomplished may be
mentioned the street railway system
of Erie, Pa, and some of the more
Important Cleveland lines, including
the Euclid and Prospect, Cedar ave-,
and Wade Park ave., lines. Following
this, the company constructed the
Broadway and Newburgh lines at
Cleveland, and the loop line at Akron.
Following this in quick succession
came the city system at jamestown,
n. Y, Dunkirk and Fredonia, N. Y,
Rockford, ILL.,, Warren, Pa, Toronto,
Can, The Niagara Falls and Suspen-
sion Bridge Railway, the Niagara
Falls Belt Line, and many others
equally important. In 1894 and the
year following the company built the
Cleveland & Berea line and overhead

work of the Detroit Railway lines. In
1895 Mr.. Christy, hacked by the CO.
operation and financial assistance of
Henry Everett and others, undertook
the construction of the Akron Bedford
& Cleveland Railroad, the first impor-
tant interurban electric railway of
consequence in the world. 1t was
built upon steam engineering prin-
ciples with heavy rails and ties, much
grading, easy curves and to con-
siderable extent along private right
of way. 1t was recognized that to
compete with established steam rail
way system it would be neces-
sary to at least approach them in the
matter of speed. and its construction
and equipment both emphasized
strongly the Importance of this con-
sderation. To secure these results
the company expended money to an
extent beyond any previous effort.
The volume of business and popular
ity of this road is the best cOmmen-
tary upon the manner of its construc.
ton and the wisdom OF its promoters.
This company also built the Cleveland

In her defiance of government than
Herr Most, is an insignificant person
in appearance.
She Is below five feet in height, and
slender in build. She would be passed
without notice in an ordinary throng.
But when she mounts platform to
speak she gains attention at once.
Her voice Is strong and clear, and
her sincerity is beyond question.
Not only does she attract true anar-
chists, but many socialists go to hear
her expound the principles of their
faith. She is fearless in her denuncia-
tions. not stopping short of sacrilege
In abusing all forms of government.
In recent speech she alluded to the
Deity as 'the old gentleman who en-
ploys full-stomached idlers, priests,
rabbis, and ministers to mind his bust
ness" She attacks the press at every
opportunity, and charges it with re-
sponsibility for most OF the evils of
society. She has spoken Imockingly OF
President Mckinley, as of every other
head of nation, or a government.
Her hearers she calls fools and
slaves" aud tells the workingman
that he ought to be shot down for not
asserting his rights by force If other
means fail. "Freedom! freedomw is
her cry, and she fguratiyely waves a
red flag and a firebrand as she says

In conversation recently she said:
"Yes, am more of an anarchist than

to use every means IN my power TO

pie.

law.
However pleasantly l might be
situated, l could not Danish from my
mind the thousands who are ops
pressed and suffer from the injustice
OF the present system.
Society lies in its last commissions.
The people are awakening to their
condition. Let them once Iuily realize
it and the present system wiil go.
Men cannot be happy as long as
they are slaves.
They cannot expect theft, murder,
prostitution, and oppression to be
gotten rid of until the system which
breeds rottenness Is gone.
Intending of any Knu won't do.
The earth must be swept of these
parasites-human vampires, despots of
crime.

During the Spanish war Emma Gold
man lectured in many cities, denounc-
ing the government for engaging in
the conflict In this city, in the
course of her speech, she pointed her
finger at the crowd of men in front of
her and said:
"You stand like cattle before the
bulletin boards to get the last war

for? That the ruling classes may re-
joice, that the yoke may be pressed

1t was in October, 1893, that Miss
Goldman was convicted in New York
for melting to riot. She was sent to
Blackwel's island, and her term of
Imprisonment was reduced to ten

When she was freed she wrote and

system required about eight miles
altogether, Developing the details of
the work as it progressed, surmount'
ing many difficult local conditions,
Mr.. Christy completed the work with
signal success. 1t was at this time
that Mr.. Christy devised for his own
use the first practicable overhead
switch. This he patented and for Sc
veral years the Spague and later the
Edison company purchased and fur-
nished "Christy switches" in all OF
its installations.
AT the completion of the construc-
ton of the Akron road Mr.. Christy
suggested the formation of company
for the purpose of acting as inter-
mediary between the manufacturing
company and the street railway COM
pany, to make such purchases OF ma
chinery as might be desired, to erect
the power house install its machinery,
construct the roadbed and overhead
system, attach the motors to the cars,
ETC.; in general 10 do all engineering
and construction work involved. Act
ing upon this suggestion, Mr. VIII
Chrlsty, his brother, James Christy,
Jr., and MIR. &. w. Foote, associated
themselves in partnership in equal in
terests, establishing headquarters in
the Society for Savings Building,
Cleveland, Ohio, and taking the name
the Cleveland Construction company.
Because of the fact that all the mem-
bers of the firm resided In Akron, the
principal offices We're established there
some time ago, although the company
still has Cleveland offices, at present
in the Garfield Building. The Akron
offices are among the finest and larg-
est in that city, ON the second hoor
of the Hamilton building.
The officers of the company are;
VIII Christy, president; w. E. Davis,
vice president; G. w. Toote, treasurer;
II. Il. Inskeep, secretary. The CON-
pany has large force of engineers
and employees. The electrical engi'
neers are W. u. Davis, G. w. Foote

SHAMROCK III MAKING GOOD.
Shamrock III is making some excel
lent time in her trial spins and is
source Of anxiety to the hackers of the
American yacht that will have to go
against her when the preliminaries
are complete. Each day, when the
wind and sea are such as to make it
possible, Shamrock goes out for trial

are watched with especial closeness
by the Yankee yachtsmen.
JENKINS HURT.
Tom jenkins injured himself in prac-
tice and will be laid up for some time,
so that his match with Mcleod will
have to be postponed. While wrest-
ling with Doc Payne in Cleveland
Monday, jenkins ruptured the sinews
attached to two ribs on his right side.
This will require considerable time to
heal.
HUNTING NEW MATERIAL.
Ted Sullivan, who has been touring
the east and looking up material for
the Cincinnati club of the National
league, has returned home He sign
ed players from three clubs in New
York state and denies that he was af-
ter any American league players. Sui
Ivan is also studying the association
football movement and may spring
something in that line later.
NAME CANDIDATES.
Foot ball teams who have confined
themselves to inuoor practice on ac-
count of the warm weather which pre-
vented severe exercise, are beginning
to work out on the various athletic
fields of the city.
The sudden coolness of the last few
days has given them the chance they
were after and they will now proceed
to select their teams in final field prac-
tice.
There Is not a club in the city that
does not have several candidates for
each position, and there will have to
be an extensive wedding out process
before the teams are finally formed for
the season. The wedding out coulo
not be accomplished while the teams
were prohibited from practicing on
the open fields or while they were
doing light work.
AKRON FLIERS.
Akron horses have not been heard
from for the last few days. Very few
Of them are at home, but the races

are preparing, however, and will be
heard from again soon. The Wooster

ERIE, Pa, June 2.-While driving
across the tracks of the Lake Shore
railroad at North East, sixteen miles

warning or to attract their attention.
They all lived at Findley's Lake, N. Y,
and were on their way home. Walters
