GAR CONDUCTORS KEEP HANDS l
 CLEAN Are no Longer::R As Captains Of
 Finance New Devices Are Making Occupation More
 MeniaQ

NEW YORK, Dec. 5. The time when street ear conductors, at least in New York, were regarded as cap. tsins of finance, is rapidly passing, and it will be in no very distant future that their occupation will be regarded as mere menial labor, af- fording no opportunity to increase their income above their regular wages. Some years ago conductors were arrested for knocking down fares. Unfortunately having . turn toward bookkeeping they had kept daily records of the exact amount of their profits over and above their wages. These records which were captured revealed the fact that the average number of fares knocked down daily was over eighty, or above
 four. dollars worth for each man. Ever since tnen the street car com. panies have been striving to make such work impossible. First came the pay .as-yop enter ear on which the conductor handled the money, and later the car in which the fare was deposited in box by the passeu- ger. r...
 Neither of these methods proved perfect, howeves, and conductors, un. less they were known to bs honest, were still regarded ss malefaetors of great wealth. Now, however, there has arrived an apparatus which even makes change, 90 that the conductor does not handle any money at all.
 In appearance, this device looks something like a miniature cash reg. ister. Any coin may be inserted and correct change obtained by press ing the correct lever. All tha. the conductor mas to do is to look on. In this way, 1t is pointed out, be will be able to keep his hands nice and clean. However, large nun. Der of conductors insist that they do not object to washing their hands
