BUSY DAYS FOR
THE BAGGAGE MEN

The busy DAYS for the baggage man
have begun and from now until the lat
ter part OF October there viii be no
holidays for this class OF workmen.
Last year was the banner year in re-
gard to the number of people who trav-
eled. All the railroads Of the country
did a phenomenal business and the
receipts from the passenger department
were larger than ever before. This
year promises to surpass 1901 and so
far this month the travel has exceeded
that Of the same period last year.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
in 1901 handled 5.640. .4S6 pieces Of bag
gage. while in 1900 the amount was
5,014.34S. This is in fact of the fact
that there is more of a disposition on
the part Of the traveller to carry less
baggage. One trunk now answers the
.pnrpose for which two or three, and
sometimes more formerly were used.
The bicycle craze Is gradually dying
out and there are not nearly as many
BICYCLES carried on the trains now as
there were a few years ago. In 1901
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company
|carr!ed 1s99S7 bicycles. while in 1900
the number was 27S.796.

SHOWERS LOWERED TEMPERATURE
Fell Eight Degrees in the Night and Today
Is Cooler

Thunder showers, which last even
ling passed to the south and west OF
this city, brought a grateful relief to
sweltering humanity, and once more
made life worth living. Between 4
O'Clock i'm the afternoon and o'clock
lin the evening the temperature drop
lped from SO TO n. and cooling breezes
caused a big shrinkage of the humid
,ity.
For today and tomorrow the weather
man predicts occasional showers, with
a stationary temperature The thunder
showers which cooled the atmosphere
last evening, however, may be OF no
benefit today, but the local showers
are expected TO keep the temperature
at least comfortable.
The maximum temperature here yes
terday was 30 at 3 o'clock in the after
noon. The hottest places were Jack
lsOnville and Tampa. where the mer-
louIy went up to the 96 notch. At Bos-
ton it was Ga. and Helena. Montana,
was the coolest spot. the maximum
Temperature there being only 5S.

ARGUING BATHHOUSE QUESTION
Chancellor May Give answer This Afternoon
on Petition for Injunction

Additional arguments in the case Of
AbsalOm Corderey VS.. Thomas o..
Cooper and William j. Thompson, on
a rule to show cause why a restraining
order should not issue against Cooper
and Thompson from erecting bath
houses and enlarging the wharf at Au-
gustine Park, was heard before Chan
cellor Nicholson here today, Messrs.
higgins and Eastburn for the COM
plainant, and Salisbury. Ponder and
Curtis for the respondents. It lis prob
able that the court will answer the ar
gument this afternoon. Mr.. ThOmp-
son. Of Gloucester race track fame, was
lin court during the morning.
Complainants seek to restrain Messrs.
Thompson and Cooper from building
the lighthouses and enlarging the wharf
because the proposed woSk is on COrde-
.rey's property. Respondents contend,
ON the other hand, that the land upon
which they wish to make the improve
Iments is Government property. At the
bottom of the injunction proceeding is
a fight between the persons mentioned
over the right to land excursionists al
the park.

CAPITATION TAX MEN
COMPLAIN OF LEVY COURT
Have No Receipts Or Stubs ard
Cannot Collect 1902 CapitatiOR
Money

Capitation Tax Collectors Bullock
and Mccoy, upon whom the Levy
Court has been showering its criticism
because Of failure to collect the tax fast
enough. are unable to collect any 1902
tax because the Levy Court has failed
TO supply them with stationery. Re
ceipts and stubs, as we'll as the books,
are necessary to the proper and legiti-
mate gathering of this tax, but the
collectors have no supplies, and the
work is not going on as 1t should.
In speaking of the matter this morn
ing Isaac S. Bullock, OF the Northern
district said.
we ought to have had our sta
tionery by July /, but we have not re-
ceived it l don't even know whether
it is printed. or where it is being done
1t inteIferes with our work, and We
should have our supplies.
"YOu have been pretty severely criti-
cised for having collected such small
portion Of your books. How Ions
have YOU been in office?'
ii have been in office one year.
"HaNe you had all of the necessary
books and stationery for 1902
mo; 1 have not. I had to wait fol
over four months for the books, after
took the office. which left me but eigh'
months in which to do my years work.
The tax for 1901 keeps coming in
but it takes a good many payments a
fifty cents eaohl to amount up to UnOu
sands Of dollars.

NO POSTAL STATION HERE
Contract Of Local Corporation Does Not
Expire Until july |. 1903

The report that the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company had signed con-
tracts with the Postal Telegraph Com
Ipany, and that the company was estab-
fishing offices in the railroad COM
pany's stations. caused some comment
as to whether a station would be To-
Gated in this city The Pennsylvania
railroad has signed contracts with the
Postal Telegraph Company. but each
corporation which makes up the rail-
road company has a contract of its
own with the Western Union Telegraph
Company, and until that expires the
Postal Telegraph Company cannot set
,up its offices.
The Maryland divisions contract
with the Western Union Telegraph
Company does not expire until July l.,
1908. therefore the Postal Telegraph
/ Company cannot operate between Phil
,adelphia and Baltimore until shat time.
Representatives Of the Delaware rail-
road in this city did not know when
their contract expires. and therefore
could not say what the company i'm
tended to do.
