Railroad Telegraph Superintendent
Meet in Atlantic CITY.

ATLANTIC CITY. n. j., June 2o-The
changing on all railroad telegraph lines
from overhead to underground will be the
recommendation of the railroad telegraph
superintendent, who are meeting here liz
their twenty-sixth annual session at the
Marlborough enheim. This action will
be taken by the superintendent and
brought before their respective companies
for the purpose of eliminating foreign cur.
rents, which have played havoc In the past
with railroad messages and endangered
thousands of lives by preventing their SAID
transmission.
A paper on this subject was read before
the convention by John j. Taylor of the
railway department of the General Electric
Company OF Schenectady, N. Y, In which
IT was declared that the trouble was caused
through inductive disturbances resulting
from high tension power communicated
from the electric railways that are now
being run parallel to many steam railways
The convention was opened by an ada
dress by the president, E A. Channery 81
st. Louis. Fifteen new members were ada
mtted.

Dark Day in Pittsburg.

PITTSBURG, June 2o.-This city yestery
day experienced the most phenomenal at
mospheric condition in its history. All day
long a dense haze hung over the business
district, making II as dark as night. III
all stores and offices 1t was necessary To
keep lights burning and the arc lights ii
the streets were turned on most Of the day,
At very infrequent intervals klle suo
could be seen through the haze. At these
times the sun spots, which were discovered
several days ago and which have been ats
tracing the attention of the scientists since,
could be plainly observed with the naked
eye. They looked to be about one-twelfth
the size of the sun.
The atmospheric phenomenon struck ter
ror to the hearts Of many ignorant people,
In the negro and foreign settlements par1
ticularly women and children ran crying
through the streets. believing that some
terrible calamity was about to occur.
