COMPLAINS OF TROLLEY
 SERVICE TO SUBURBS

Editor of The Bridgeport Farmer:
 Sir: A striking example of the way the suburban patrons of our trolley system are treated by the company was forcib1y brought to my notice last evening and through the columns of your valued paper, I wish to call the attention, not only of the city authorf- ties, but of the local members of the Public Utilities Commission of it, and ask if steps cannot be immediately taken to stop such practices in the fu- ture. The facts of the case are as fol- lows: Car No. 150, Conductor 4092, marked Paradise Green left the usual at this time. Just before it reached Newf1eld avenue, the motor man removed the sign from the front of the car. I noted this action and asked the conductor if the car did not go to Paradise Green, as and all the others in the car supposed 1t did when we boarded it. He answered that 1t did not and that we would have to take the following, car. asked by what right he removed the sign in the middle of the run and was told that he "kneW his business" and that was not running the car. When it reached the Baird Mfg. Co.,, it was switched back and some twenty persons who were in it were told to take the car following. At frst refused to change and. offered to stay in the car and be taken back to Bridgeport to the com pany's office to see if the company had any right to lrake it's patrons change cars in the middle of run, for no reason. but to rush a car, adver- tised to go to a certain destination, back to the city to secure short haul passengers, thereby putting it's through passengers to serious inconvenience. The other passengers not wishing to be put to further delay did mot back me up, so reluctantly changed
 It is well known to all patrons of the road that the outgoing service during and that the cars are badly over that-we do, from the high steps. trreg- ular time. etc, it does seem adding in suit to injury to force regular patrons to change cars unnecessarily in the middle of a road simply to satisfy the greed of a poorly equipped, badly man aged company.
 am not finding fault with the con. duotors or motormen, who are, as al rule, competent and courteous and who, as they inform me, recognize the injustice done to the travelling public, but are simply carrying out the or ders of those higher up-in this case of an inspector.
 Thanking you for the space given this letter and sincerely hoping that 1t may pave the way for much needed re- forms. am,
 Very truly yours,

NINE KILLED
 WITH BREAKING
 OF MINE CABLE

Clifton, Ariz.. Aug. 14-Nine men were killed and one was probably fatally injured. late last night, when a cable pin snapped at the Coronado Mine and two ore cars carrying 32 tons of ore and 13 miners dashed down a 3s degree grade for a distance of $500 feet.
 The cars and their passengers had Just been lowered over the brink of the grade. which is one of the longest and steepest in the world, when the pin holding the cable attached to the cars snapped, the safety chains broke and the cars started downward like a shot.
 Three Americans named Lidd1e, Scott and Ambler5 promptly rolled off but nine of those who remained on the car were killed and one other was so seriously injured that he was ex- pected to die.
 The dead were Mining Engineer Schaeffer, formerly of Colorado; B. M Jones. an electrician of Clifton, and three Americans. two Italians and two Mexican miners.

TURNED HOSE ON CABLE co. WORKMEN N

Frank Kosek and his wife Mary, residing at 4S1 BunnelI street, south eof the Electric Cable Company's plant on the East Side, were today arraign- ed in court charged with a breach of the peace in having on several occasions yesterday turned a. garden hose upon workmen employed in burning rubbish in the Cable com pany's plant, thereby preventing their house being scorched, and a garden destroyed.
 Thomas J. Stewart, general man ager of the Cable company testified that workmen were sent out in the yard to burn rubbish as had been cus- tomary, but they were prevented by the prisoners who doused them with garden hose and put out the fire.
 Officer Malone, sent to warn the peo- pie on receipt of the first complain int, told them they would be arrested if they did not desist. Later another complaint was made and the pair were placed in custody.
 Kosek and his wife asserted that they had two years ago complained to the Board of Health that the burning g of rubbish was nuisance and that Board had taken action to have it stopped.
 General Manager Stewart, placed upon the stand, was submitted to a rigorous cross examination by Attor- ney GeOrge Mara, WnO dSceFCa1neQ that the Health Board had warned the company not to burn rubbish when the wind was blowing in the south and had recommended the building of a furnace for such purpose.
 Judge Cough1in taking g. hand in the proceedings secured admissions from the official that the wind was undoubt- edIy blowing in a souther1y direction yesterday, it having changed during the day. Judge Coughlin knew the way in which the wind blew.
 Tn finding the couple technically guilty and hning them $5 and costs, which was suspended immediately, the court took occasion to point out that though reporting such matters to the Board of Health was a 1ong-wfnded way of securing relief in such mat ters, nevertheless 1t was the proper manner and should be done in the fu- ture.
