 TROLLEY SYSTEM
New Rules Effective Thursday Call for Extra Perceptions

New rules will go into effect Thurs day morning all over the lines of the Conheeticut Go. Recommenda- tions made by the public utilities commission for the promotion Of safety on the trolley lines have been ming the day after tomorrow.
 Many of the rulings are the out come of accidents that occurred on the Connecticut Go. lines during the last year or two and which promoted an investigation by the comn1issaqn As result changes in the method ot signal obseruancez and many minor cern have been incorporated into the new book of rules.
 The book now in force was issued in April, 1913, and during the last two years. record was Kept by the com pany of the numerous details that have been Sconsidered advantageous and they have been adopted for part of the new rulings.
 One of the most radical of the shan ges relates to the hand-throWn light signals at switches. Heretofore, mo- tornen have operated them with keys and the human element sometimes was, found erring To decrease the possibility of accident through an er- TOT, both xnotormen and conductor will have to leave their car at the switch. go to the signal box and ob- serve the status of the lights. The motorman will operate them undek the supervision of the conductor, and if he makes a, mistake that is ob- served by the conductor, the latter will remind him of it.
 Instead Of trusting to the trolley pole to throw the automatic signals in the future, the car will be stopped a short distance from the signal and then the nnetorman will allow it to proceed while both members of the crew watch the signal.
