full stage pictures. The cast is a
superior one and contains a number

KEEPS TAB ON Ash CARS.
Dispatcher Regulates Disposal of
BroOklyn's Cinders.

In a small office room In one OF the largest
buildings in Brooklyn the train dispatcher OF the
American Railway Traffic Company sits close
to telephone for twelve hours every day. and
at evening his seat is occupied by his assistant
who works through the twelve hours OF the
night.
This company has the contract OF removing the
ashes and waste OF the city of Brooklyn. The
city is divided into thirteen districts and IN each
district a station has been established. To these
stations the ashes are brought by tho Street
Cleaning Department and dumped into the wait
ing buckets. Each station contains twenty-four
of these buckets. and each bucket has a capacity
of seven and half cubic yards. The ashes are
finally removed by electric fiat cars, which are
into the stations on sidings. One OF these
electric fiat will carry four full buckets
to a load. the equivalent OF twenty-four ash
carts.
When a car IS loaded II is sent out over the
line to the Harway dump, where the ashes are
employed to fill in the marshlands on the out
skirts Of Coney Island. 1t is the duty OF the
dispatcher, in the small office room TO see that
the cars are kept running regular time so
that the service can keep pace with the influx OF
material at the different stations. The confu-
sion which would follow were the ashes 10 &C
cumuate more rapidly than they could be car
ried away TO the dumps may be readily imag-
ined In order TO prevent this II is, above all
things, essential that in the morning of each
day all the buckets or all the stations nave Deen
emptied. that the system is clear to undertake
the handling of that days ash product OF the
city.
With the sole purpose OF establishing the best
means of communication, a series OF private
telephone wires have been strung connecting
every one OF the thirteen stations and also the
Harway dumping grounds with the train dis
patcher's office. When car starts out from a
station on the run to the Harway dump the
man In charge at the station telephones
the dispatcher. stating the number OF the sta
ton. the number OF the car. the number or can
covers with which the buckets provided
and the time OF the cars departure. When that
particular reaches Its destination the time
Of arrival the number OF the car and the num-
Der of covers are again telephoned into the
train dspatCher's office by the car checker sta
tiened at the dump. When the makes the re-
turn trip with the empty buckets similar course
of procedure is observed The train dispatcher has
laid cut in front of him on his desk a regular
dispatch sheet. whereOn the time OF departure
and arrival and the numbers and the route OF
every I'm the service are carefully recorded
BY this means the dispatcher Is enabled to keep
correct account OF the positions or all his cars
