The officers OF the company today laid
great stress on the extreme difficulty Of
Installing a system OF transfers. which
would give the public the benefit of the
transfer system ordered TO be put in
force by the legislature. and at the same
time protect the railway company from
imposition.
General Manager Potter said today he
believed no other city In the country Of
fered so many difficulties for putting In
force a transfer system that would be
satisfactory to everybody concerned as
Providence.
"The irregular manner in which the
city is laid out and the routes of our diff
ferent lines makes the problem that con-
fronts us delicate and somewhat difficult.
THE lines OF tracks project from the
City Hall in various directions like the
spokes OF a wheel from a hub.
Now, this company does not mind car
rying a passenger a mile. more or less,
IN any direction, especially IL the per-
son be weak or old. yet the law says
that passengers shall only be transferred
In one general direction.
Don't you see how easy IL would De

control of a sufficient number OF ice COM
panies 10 insure our success.
1t is estimated that the new company
will sell 10000 tons of ice during the
year. The plant of the Commonwealth
Ice company will turn out 250 tons day.
In some OF the cities new plants will be
built, and in some artificial ice will not
be used. The Commonwealth company
has made a speciality OF using water
which has been distilled and filtered"
OF the companies which will be In
cluded In the trust the Providence Ice
company is capitalized at $4,000, the
Commonwealth Ice company at s5s5, 600.
the Brockton Ice and Coal company at
$325.000, the Taunton Ice company at
$4,000. The other companies will be
taken over according TO their value.
The new trust will not confine it's work
to ice. but will also deal In coal DIR.
Kaufman says he expects TO have the
stock listed on the New York and Bos-
ton exchanges.
The economies of the company will be
effected by reducing the number of Ice
wagons per district and by keeping the
men steadily employed both in winter
and summer.

"STARTLING
DEFENCE" /"
COURT SAYS
Manufacturing Concerns De-
InurTer Set Aside by Appellate
Division Of Supreme Court

The remarkable defence set up by the
defendant in the case of George Dion
p. a. VS.. Richmond Manufacturing COM
parry does not meet with the approval OF
the appellate division of the supreme
court
Young Dion was badly injured while at
work for the defendant company. He
was under the age that the law permits
children TO work In manufacturing es-
Adjustments.
The employer set UP the defence that
as the boy was under the age he could
legally work for it, the relation OF mas
ter and servant never existed between
him and II. Therefore. II was claimed on
demurrer that the defendant owed no
duty to the plaintiff.
In fits opinion handed down today the
court says: This is not a case to en-
force an illegal contract as was Berkett
VS.. Chatterton, IL r. /. 2S9, but an action
TO recover for the defendants negligence,
which Is question independent OF the
violation of the. statute.
1T would be startling doctrine to say
that defendant could set up his own
verdict Of a statute. intended to protect
children OF tender years. as defence to
his own negligence In the service rem
dered by him. Demurrer Is overruled."

to come down town and do business at a
bank. make purchases, or anything else,
and having a transfer, return on a
Cranston car? OF course every trans
ferred passenger Is expected TO take the
first car. but when cars are run under
ten-minute headway, this will give am
pie time to do considerable business.
Now, / don't mention this because the
company does not want TO Issue transfers
TO such class Of passengers. especially
IL they are infirm, but only TO show how
many things have TO be considered in a
matter like this"
Mr.. Potter said he could not tell when
the plans OF the company in regard 10
its transfer system would be ready for
announcement. He added. however, that
the system would be the very best that
could be devised"
Mr.. Potter Is examining the systems
prevailing in other large cities and TAX
ing what is best from them, and reject
ing what experience has shown to be
worthless.
An officer OF the Union company said
he did not believe the receipts OF the
company would suffer from the transfer
system. Many more people would ride,
and experience has shown that i'm other
cities which have long had transfers that
the receipts have grown larger in conse-
quence.

FEARS OF ERUPTION oUIETED.
Ponca. May i5.-The fears OF an erup-
tion OF Mount Iona. near this town, have
been quieted. The renewed issuing Of

gas continues, but no subterranean noises
have been heard since Tuesday morning
Farmers who were planning 10 move
away have been treasured and will re-
main. The cause OF the disturbance Is
not known. but is supposed to be the re-
suit by a heating OF an underlying lime

moisture.
