TRAINS OPERATED
WITHOUT TELEGRAPH
One Effect Of Storm May be Placing
Underground Of All Wires Used
by The PcnnSy

The storm which played such havoc
with the overhead wires served one
useful purpose in putting to a severe
test the electric pneumatic signal sys-
tenn in use on some divisions of the
Pennsylvania railroad. The engineer
.of signals was able yesterday to re-
.ceive reports from all portions of the
lines on which this system has been
installed. I'm every case these reports
woro to the effect that there was not
the slightes interruption in the opera
tion Of the signals. Although the use
fulness of more than ten miles of tele-
graph and telephone wire was destroy
ed on the New York division alone,
not an inch of the protected wire in the
tubes was harmed The signals we're
set with perfect regularity in spite of
the peculiar severity of the ice storm,
and very little detention of traffic was
Experienced on the sections of the line
where the trains are guided by tnis
lautomatic system.
The entire New York Division Is
protected by the electro pneumatic
block signals at present, as is also tee
main line as far west as Paoli and
labont two thirds of the distance re-
tween Altoona and PittsbuIs. The At
lanuc City division of the West Jersey
land Seashore railroad is also equipped
and operated by tho electric blocks
! The system is being extended over the
.inee to Washington, and west on the
mann line, as rapidly as the comprehen-
sivt improvements in progress on
those lines will admit rhe wisdom
of the expenditure requisite for the in
lstallatiOn and maintenance OF this sys-
ltem is fully demonstrated by the re-
lsults of mo past few days.
In consequence Of the successful
working of this system under the Sc
verest of tests il is probable that both
Ithe Reading and Pennsylvania may
once again take up the problem Of
IplaCing their telegraph wires under
ground. Il was stated by an official
yesterday that calculations on the
lp,ohat lc cost of such an Improvement
had already been figured out to a nicely
land that its adoption had been post
lponed because Of the greatly increased
lexpense Of installation. The cost for
lplacing the wires underground would
be about double that of the present
system. but it was stated that much
would be gained by the certainty that
Its operation could not be as often and
las seriously interfored with as that of
the overhead wire system. Besides, a
considerable saving would ensue
Through the absence of occasions for
frequent repairs.

FROZEN SEWAGE In
CITY'S THOROUGHFARES
Property OW0erS Disregard Law in
Not Having Underground
Drainage

Ii property owners and tenants had
cleared their sidewalks and cutters OF
snow and ice last week. and thereby
allowed waste water to flow into the
culverts, many of the sloppy, disease
breeding pools TO be seen in the princi-
pal streets OF the city would not be in
evidence. There is not one OF these
stagnant spots that does not stand as a
disgrace to the city. Why the Board of
Health allows the nuisance to exist, OF
the Street and Sewer Department per
mits those owners from whose proper
ties the waste water runs TO longer re-
main without sewer connections, is be.
yOnd the understanding of those per
sons who are compelled daily to wade
through tho stagnant puddlee.
In Eighth street above Orange there
is veritable sea of filthy slush. The
water has made its way from the
houses in Wihitechapel, and, having
been denied gutter rights because OF
ice. has banked on the pavement. where
today it is a mixture Of slush and
kitchen refuse. Only a ray of sun
shine is required to transform the spot
into a disease pool
There are many similar pools in the
city. but perhaps not so foul as tbs
Eighth street one. In Ninth street
above Tatnall the pavement is covered
with slush. as also is the case in Sec
ond street above Adams. French
Church, Sixth and Tenth streets alsC
show many filthy pavements.
