INSTALLING OF
BLOCK SYSTEM
OF SIGNALS ON RICHMOND d.
VISION 500.
LESSEN WRECL DANGER
System is in Effect Locally on Each
Side of This City For Few
Miles.

The block signal system, the latest
safeguard that the Pennsylvania
railroad is installing along its lines
for the better protection of travel
ers, will soon be adopted locally and
installed on the division between here
and indianapolis. For several months
the block signal system has been in
stalled at many points along this dl-
vision where the danger or Likelihood
of wreck was especially great. 1t has
chiefly been placed on either side for
several miles of the largest towns. The
block signal system is in effect locally
for several hundred feet east OF the
freight yards near Glen Miller to a
point little over half way to Cen
terville on the Indianapolis division
and to corresponding points on the
other lines running in here. Thus
there are many stretches of track
where this new signal system has been
installed and all that needs to be done
is to fill in the stretches of track be-
tween.
The installation of the block sys-
tenn will afford much greater protec-
ton to travellers and will greatly les
sen the chances of head-On collisions
between fast and slow trains. The new
system divides the road into blocks,
each several hundred feet long, each
block so arranged and fitted with SEM
aphore signals and lights that if the
train should break down while on a
block the danger signal would appear
automatically at each end, to warn
trains approaching from either direc-
ton in time to stop and thus avoid a
serious wreck. On the divisions where
this system has already been installed
it has proved of great value and will
be installed on all divisions Of the
Panhandle lines soon.
The division between Zenia, Ohio,
and New Paris, Ohio, has been fitted
with the block signal system and the
trainmen running on this division say
that the protection is much greater
and that the number Of wrecks has
decreased greatly.
"The block signals are working
fine' said a trainman last evening.
1.-THE block signal system is certainly
all right.'
Telephones have been placed along
the track fitted with the block system
in order to facilitate the reportings of
breakdowns, etc.

An Interurban Court Decision.

The Indiana Supreme Court has
just handed down a decision holding
that an interurban railway with a
franchise from the city to lay tracks
in the streets with such rails as it sees
fit, and to operate thereon by electric
ity cars running to and from other
towns and cities, carrying passengers,
baggage, light express and mail mat
ter, or baggage, light express and mail
matter without passengers, running
not more than two cars in a train. is
not an additional servitude which
necessarily causes damage to an abut-
ting owner and entities him to enjoin
the building and operating of such
railway in a street, until his damages
are assessed and paid, or rendered.
Such owner can only have his action
at law for actual damages suffered.
The decision was handed down in
the case of Henry Mordhurst versus
The Fort Wayne & Southwestern
Traction company, in which the APP
pellant sought to enjoin the comE4i
from building and operating an M
terurban line past his place in the city
of Fort Wayne extending to the city
of Huntington.

incomplete Refreshment Booth
on Plaza Between Virginia

In the tearing down OF an incomplete
refreshment booth on the plaza between

the Plateau of States at the Worlds Fair
yesterday was marked the final victory OF
two women. the hostesses of tho build
ings.
The lumber, which has been placed in
piles, will no doubt be carted away some
time to-day. and where, according TO the
IDEAS of some men, would have been
soda water and lemonade stand will be
placed flowers and plants.
When the construction OF the refresh
ment booth began Mrs. W. y. Strother,
the hostess at the Virginia building, and
Miss Cara Yeatman. acting for Mrs.
Rachel Jackson La ~rence, the hostess Of
the Tennessee building. entered viSor-
Gus protest against the stand being placed
there.
When the women saw that the work was

their buildings, II necessary. The author
ity was readily granted. Armed with this
n further demand was made, and assisted
by one of the National Commissioners. the
work was stopped.
The building in its uncompleted state

that the two hostesses had won.

they can't have good music some OF the
members declare they will organize a
"tin-pan" band and have bad music.
Matt Hall. who has charge Of the Mis-
souri, exhibit in the big palace. saved the
dignity of the agriculturists yesterday
morning with an able address to the mem
bers of the club, but II President Francis
does not comply with the demands OF a
committee appointed TO see him to-day 1t
is not believed that Mr. Hall will be abe
to turn the other members from their pur-
pose at the next meeting on Tuesday, Au-
gust 16.
Some time ago the exhibitors decided
that inasmuch as the Palace of AEricu!-
ture Is far removed from the center of the
grounds, band should be assigned by the
Exposition management to give concerts
in the building three times week for the
purpose Of drawing visitors.
II was claimed at the meeting yester
promised with the proviso that tney SUP
ply a band stand. This has been done and
the exhibitors have waited weeks for the
swee; strains, but in vain.
Yesterday the question was brought up
by James Walsh of Nebraska. who moved
that the exhibitors organize a band with
tin pans, wash boilers. tin horns. COW
bells and buzz saws, for instruments.
We could give a concert with such a
band that would draw a crowd" de-
ciared Mr.. Walsh, land I'll act as leader.
Mr.. Hall opposed such an idea, declar-
ing II beneath the dignity Of the body OF
such representative men. He advised dip
lomatic methods and discretion. His ap-
peal had the desired effect, and his motion
for n committee to walt upon President
Francis resulted In the appointment by

"SCALPERS" PLY THEIR

The ticket "scalper' has made his ap-
pearance on the Worlds Fair grounds.
Like the early swallow he may be the
forerunner of others.
Yesterday afternoon a party of six, sta
toned themselves at the different entrance

a very large rush and. although every
possible endeavor was made 10 handle the
large crowds. 1t was impossible for the
cashiers to prevent long lineup at each
entrance. At a given signal the scaipers
started I'm shouting. Tickets for the Boer
War; house full: grand stand seats here"
Before the management of the Boer War
were fully aware Of all the facts several
persons had beeen induced to pay 81 for
5D-cent grand-stand seats. Very soon.
however. Detective Sykes. the Boer War
house detective. spotted the scalpers and
induced them to return TO the rounds Of
Market street.
In order to prevent any further attempt
at "scalping," the Boer War management
has had a special Jefferson Guard and
service men placed at each entrance gate.
There is ample accommodation for 2,00l
In the Boer War grand stand, but It, of
course, takes some time to handle the
large crowds that present Themselves
daily.
