BALTIMORE G. OHIO TRAINS
GIVES HANCOCK "Go-BY'
Effort May be Made to Compel Rail
road Company to Stop Some
Fast Trains.

The people OF Hancock Md. and
Berkeley Springs, w Va, are much
worked up because the new schedule
OF the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
which went into effect yesterday does
not permit the stopping OF any
through trains at Hancock Station.
which Is the junction of the Berkeley
Springs branch. with the exception of
one. NO. 50. which leaves Baltimore at
s O'Clock in the morning. Only local
trains with this exception now stop
at Hancock Station. For many years
all passenger trains have stopped at
Hancock, but now the through trains
make the run between Cumberland
and Martinsburg. rs miles, without a
stop. Recently improvements have
been made at Hancock Station, in
GLIDING the strai ghtening of the tracks
To permit the running OF the trains
between Cumberland and Martinsburg
without stop a system has been in
stalled near Sir Johns Run six miles
west OF Hancock. whereby trains can
take water while running. Ii Is
claimed that the water supplied the
engines at Hancock had deteriorat-
ing effect on the boilers and this is
given as one OF the reasons for the
abandonment of that point as water
station. 1t is said the business men
az Hancock and Berkeley Springs pro
pose taking action looking to having
the baltimore and Ohio revise their
new schedule. otherwise the matter
might be taken rip with the Interstate
Commerce Commission.

Pope Falls Ascending Throne.

An untoward incident, which caused
some commotion in the vast assem-
blage, occurred as the pope was about
to take his seat on the throne. As he
descended from the sedia, or papal
chair. which was borne by uniformed
Swiss guards, he fell, and was slightly
bruised. The cardinals rushed for
ward, assisted the pope to his feet and
helped him to take the throne. The
ceremony then proceeded.
Each of the new cardinals approach
ed the throne. made three bows, kiss
ed the cross embroidered In gold on
the velvet shoe which the pope wore
on his right foot, kissed the pontiff 8
hand, his cheek and retired to the
bench at the left Then each In turn
received the embrace of the whole
College of Cardinals, took his pls %
according to rank, and donned tie
small cap.
After the entire fourteen had per
formed these ceremonies, each In
turn knelt before the pope. The hood
Of his great cape was drawn over his
head by the two masters OF ceremo-
MES, and the pope. wearing only the
white skull cap, held the broad-brim-
med cardinals hat over him, impress
