sudley pulled Off the play the large
crowd roared I'm glee. as seven-eighths
OF the spectators thought he had slipped
and by accident beat out the play. But
when Sudley reepated the feat the dar-
ing runner was loudly appauded for his
bravery. While the honor is claimed for
Others studley was undoubtedly the FIRST
player TO slide from fifteen TO twenty feet
ON his stomach TO base.
Uncle Nick Young. in talking to me
recently, said there was no doubt studlcy
was the pioneer OF the slide. and recently

Referring to the operations Of the p

Legislature. the following statement has
been issued by the passenger department
OF ;he Pennsylvania Railroad Company.
"An analysis Of the pa seager earnings
OF the Pennsylvania Railroad for oc-

System is Expensive.
II costs something like $1,000 a mile 20
equip d railroad with the automatic sig
nails. while the cost Of installing the man
nal system is very much less with the
other everything is dependent upon the
operators in the signal towers located
at the beginning Of each block and these
blocks are OF various lengths. sometimes
being over three miles. The operators send
messages from one block 20 another con-
corning the movement OF trains and all
signals are set by hand. whereas with the
automatic everything is worked automat.-
cally, as the name Of the system indicates.
For this reason railroad men point out
that it is less apt to fail than the manuel.
The automatic system, when it does
get out OF order. IS supposed TO show tho
red signal ia the block affected and thus
cause engineers TO stop until the trouble
can be located 1t IS claimed by the Bal
timore and Ohio officials that such faii-
ures as have occurred heretofore on its
lines where the automatic system IS IN
use have always been for safety-that is
the red signal has been shown.
