Policemen were ordered to-day to
clean out the tramps along the spur of
the New York Central Railroad on
North River from Twentieth to Thir-

When the police came upon the
tramps there were several hundreds of
them in all. They scampercd in every
direction, hiding in every conceivable
place. On top of a high pile of lumber
were two score or more hardened ho-
boes who were snoring.
one of the policemen climbed up the
side of the lumber pile n raped his
club violently. INSTANTLY the tramps
began jumping from the lumber, ard
all had reached the ground and maze
off except one woman and a man. The
man finally spranC from the lumber
pile. He shook 1t so violently that IL

SAY TROLLEY MEN

Employees Of SouthtieId Electric
Railway, Staten Island. Ac-
cused of Gross CareIessness
MANY Accidents Result.

At the South Beach terminal Of the
Staten Island Rapir Transit Railroad,
in the town of Southfeld, is the South
field Electric Railway Company. Il
ms from South Beach to Midland
Beach and is owned and operated by
the Richmond Light and Railroad Con-
pany. Of which II. II. Rogers, the
Standard Oil magnate, is president.
Its rolling stock consists of two cars,
one of which the company runs TO suit
itself through the week and both some
times on Sundays. The distance is not
more rhan a lie, for which a fare of
Ave cents is charged.
In the summer of 1889 and after the
trolley line between Manhattan and
Brighton beaches was started the Rich
mond Light and Railroad Company
came to the conclusion that a trolley
line between Midland and South beaches
would prove as profitable as the Brlgh-
ton Beach line. Application was al
n made to the Board of Aldermen
for a franchise, which vas granted,
but when the company started TO lay Its
rails 1t was stopped by some of the
property owners, who refused to allow
them to cross their property.
The Railroad Company took the mat
ter into the courts and after n legal
fight which lasted several months won
out. The road was completed in the
early part of the summer of 1900. The
public were given a fairly good service
then and the line was well ~patronized.
Since the first season the line has
never been on a paying basis and at the
present time 1t Is a white elephant or
the company's hands. The motormen
and conductors employed on the line are
paid the poorest kind of salaries and
many of the men are incompetent. Ii
