sPLICED TRAILERS THE
LATEST IN STREET CARS.
Ancient Arks Which Would be an
Ornament TO Any junk Heap Form
New Attraction on Hammond Line.

The South Chicago City Railway
company IS trying out a new brand of
trailers. The recent law passed by the
Chicago city council prohibiting the
use of sldeboards on street cars has
compelled the remodeling Of the cars
formerly in use. The ear which pass
ed through Hammond last night on its
maiden trip was a most pitiful excuse
for trailer and viii be most repre-
sentative addition to the string OF an
tiquated see-saws bungling up and
down the main streets of the city. The
new model of the old type consists Of
two cars spliced together, the cars used
consisting Of some back numbers
which had probably been abandoned
long ago, owing to their old age and
inability to stick TO the track. En-
trance is made to the new car by
means of the regulation step in place
of the sideboards which were formerly
in use. There are six Of them now
ready for use on the Chicago division
and an effort will be made to put them
on before the close Of the season. The
cars. which were built with the inten-
ton Of using them for trailers, viii
now be used in all probability on the
Hammond East Chicago division or
Sunday and on other days of heavy
traffic during the summer months

Interesting Testimony.
Mrs. Seward, at whose home in San

gave testimony strongly corroborative
of Orchards account of his acts and

movements and locations, she testified
that she found lead and wood shaFings
in Orchards room, and a screw-eye,
string and cork attached TO the closet
door where Orchard had been expert
menting. She said her lodger had Il
very heavy suitcase, and that she
made I'D her mind that he was an in

Manager Jones decided to stop the
overflow in games lost and yesterday
sent Ed Walsh into the game to do the
trick and he was not found wanting.
1t turned out to be a landslide and the
final score was to although Walsh
eased up in the final innings, only five
hits We're the Bostons able to get off
that Shiny spitball. Jacobsen was the
first victim offered up by Mcclure, and
after two men were passed, the old
fox pulled out the tall lad and substi-
tuted the fat boy. Harris. He proved
to be just what the Sox were looking
for and thirteen wallops resulted.
Davis showed the fans just how the
short stop position should be played
and accepted eleven chances all of
which wers beauties. Isbeu had his
stick in working order yesterday and
got three hits including three Dagger,
a two Dagger and a single.
The Boston Nationals got away with
! the Cubs yesterday by a score of 5 to 4,
| thanks to Mr.. Needham, the stocky
backstop. who punched out a home run
in the seventh just when it was most
needed. Pat Flaherty, the ex-White
Sox south paw was in the box for Bos-
ton and Jack Pfeister did the work for
the Cubs. Pat worked in fine shape
except for the sixth when the Cubs got
three runs, but the rest of the time he
had the home bunch locoed. Mike Ka-
hoe again proved himself timely hit
ter when he went TO bat in place OF
Shekard and landed a nice one in the
