TEMPORARY HALT
IN PENNSY WORK
Contracts Checked Until
Spring Will Involve Over
$1,000, 900
HUNDREDS OF MEN ARE AFFECTED
Decided That II Would Be Impossible
to Complete the Tasks During the
Coming Winter-WiIl Not Affect

It is reported that by November Is
at least ten per cent. Of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad Companys force east
of Pittsburg viii be out OF employment.
II is not thought that there win be any
wholesale layoffs in this city. but that
on the other hand the work on the ele-
waited will be pushed forward as rap
idly as possible.
In speaking Of this move on the part
Of the railroad. Chief Engineer Brown
said:
"The biggest contracts ordered stop
ped until spring are under way between
Paoli and Thorndale, on the new low
grade division between Columbia and
Parkesburg, and on the middle division
at Newport. These contracts call for
an expenditure OF about S3,0OO,000.
The reason for this move is found
in the fact that the company could not
use the road this winter. even IL It were
completed as far as the Susquehanna
river. The high water has greatly re-
tarded work on the new bridge, and il
is doubtful If this can be completed be-
fore July /. Work on this bridge win
be continued during the winter, how
ever, and the construction OF the new
road will be resumed In the early
spring. BY adopting this course the
road and the connecting bridge will be
completed at approximately the same
time.
1t is the intention to allow contrac-
tors to finish the work Immediately un-
der way. Bridge piers. for instance.
viii be completed and capped until
spring, roadbeds viii be finished up
and. In fact any part OF the work lia-
ble to be affected by storm OF food will
be strengthened ready to be taken ur
in the spring"

The Parrot Trade.
'om the New York Commercial.


Most of the 1900 or $500 parrots that are
brought to this city every year are of the
sorts known as the double yelowhead'
and the ''red-head" The former are the
best takers and young birds sell for SD
or so, while the red-heads fetch the same
price as the Cuban parrots.
The finest takers according to a dealer
who talked to a Commercial reporter the
other day-are the gray African parrots,
but, although they are in good demand, 1t
is said that only 100 are sold today for
every 800 that were disposed of in this
country years ago The demand fell off at
one time because people had become afraid
to buy them, they were so likely to die on
the purchasers hands. When the demand
increased again the supply had become in
adequate. AS matter of fact. 1t is said
the popular idea that these parrots are DELI
cate is mistake, they are even harder
than the Mexican birds but they are usu-
ally not well cared for by sailors the
voyage from Africa, on which they are liza
BILE to contract blood poisoning from i'm
proper food. Only about 1900 of them are
imported here in year, and the average
price for a young bird is s15. In regard to
their linguistic abilities the importer spoke
pet. which, he said, talked fluently English
French, high German and low German, be-
sides little in Russian. For a fine talker
prices run up high as sl,OoO, price
which is paid perhaps once a year" The
payment of $500 for a highly trained and
accomplished talker is said not to be un-
common.
