THE VDRK tlllaa Street Kail way Co. Kay fie Heady For Traffic By Kayl. CONSTBUCTION OP BO AD with the excentlon of but a. few hundred feet, alt the track of the Northerly Electric Street railway be twsen Providence square and La Plume has been laid and work of con struotion has progressed to such an Went that it is expected that cars win" be running from this city to Chinchlllia by the first of May. Extra help Jias been hired, accord inr tn the Infest announcement and work Is being; pushed so as to hav Everything in readiness "by May.

Anions' the "work is the power house, midway between Dalton Ad LaPlume, the car barn near the irub statlon at Chinchilla and the boilers in the power house have been Installed. It is expected that all the fnachlnery in the power house will be installed before the end of the week. Before long work will be start ed on the poles and the stringing of the vires. That a great record is being made the construction of the road is evident from the fact that work was "iot started until last May and it has progressed as to assure com pletion in a year from the starting date. r.

Almost all of the cars ordered by the company are ready for shipment by the Brill company, in Philadelphia and will be sent here just as soon' as the power house Is ready to generate to move them, as this will be only means of conveying them to' the car barn. Everything that has entered into the equipment and development of this trolley project has been most substantial and with, a view of permanency. The rail is a seventy pound one, which meets the demand of freight, traffic and speed. The ballast will be all rock. The bridges are all of steel with concrete, abutments and piers, the'jpower houses and car oarns are an 01 stone ana ones, aim the cars are decidedly in advance of 'the type used on the trolley Jines They are of the Pullman 'standard type and are more of an in ter urban car than those used in this 'vicinity, The style of car should be of particular interest to the public, appealing as they do to the comfort of passen gers, which is one of the most import ant considerations to the patrons of a trolley line.

The Northern company's cars are forty five feet long, which is live feet longer than the big cars now 4n use on the Scranton Railway com pany's system. They will have' the smoking com partment, but instead of the seats in that compartment foremen, only Tuning lengthwise, they" will extend crosswise, with an isle running through. cars have a mahogany finish. The seats in the smoking compart mertt are finished in leather, while lhose in the car proper are upholster ed in plush. There are racks for packages and.

there are electric push buttons at every seat for the convenience of passengers, who will not have to worry about hailine the con ductor when it Is time to get The cars will be painted a Tuscan red! the To. vituBinaiiia mHnnnrn nnn tnov ova equipped with airbrakes. There will be an abundance of power, the company officials say. The Westinghouse alternating system will be used and in addition to the main power house between LaPlume and Dalton there is a substation at Chinchilla, which Is commonly known as a "booster." The car motors are of 450 horse power. The car barn is 96x150 feet and will Fit LEY'S Exhibition and Demon Oration ol I Cfeeqne c'onrim mmi Tailored I'aderwear, from Marefc 4th letk.

Their extraordinary dur ability Is such that they win outwear three ordinary 510 and 512 Ave. accommodate twenty 1 truck cars. The engine room of the power bouse is 75x150 feet, and the boiler house is (8x45 feet.

Ail of these are completed and were built by S. Sykes" Sons, of this city. In the car. house are the offices of the superintendent, and quarters for the conductors and motormen. This means that the crews, will live at Dalton and that the headquarters of the road will also be there, After leaving; Clarks Summit the company runs all the' Way to Factory ville over private right of way.

Between here and Clarks Summit the tracks are laid alongside the roadway. All the stations above the Summit' are on land owned by the company. A idea of what the company has laid out in the matter of construction and in order to have its own right of way as far as possible it; might be cited as a good illustration that a steel via duct 462 feet long has been constructed on the Ackerly farm. GLOVER'S. SUIT AGAINST MRS.

EDDY Plans Discussed by Statement That His Attorneys Glover Hss Been Asked to Drop Suit, BOSTON, March 5. Plans for future action in the suit of George W. Glover by which he to secure an accounting of the estate of his mother, Mrs. Mary Baker Glover Ed dy, were discussed at a conference 6 Mr. Glover's attorneys, ex Senator Chandler, of New HamfrsMre; John W.

Kelly and Nathaniel Martin, at the Parker house late this afternoon.At torney Martin in a statement made' the aeciaratiori mat there had been an attenit on the part of those interested to buy off or persuade Mr. Glover to end his suit for the Eddy millions. Ex Senatqr Chandler said soon af ter he reached the Packer house: I do not see why action should not be taken against Christian Science leaders In every state in the union td compel them to give an accounting of the money and property of Mrs. Eddy or of the church that they have in their possession. Mrs.

Eddy can be reached through the state court of New Hampshire as she is a resident of that state. To get an accounting of the. property in the states in which she has no residence we will have to take' action against the leaders who have the property In charge, there to the Federal courts." Ex Senator Chandler says he will remain In Boston two or three days. Mr. Martin said: "Persistent efforts have been made by Alfred Farlow, Irving Tomlinson and others who manage Mrs.

Eddy's affairs to bribe George Glover to surrender to them many letters written to him by his mother, which he has in his possession. They have not offer ed him definite sums for them, but have promised him valuable presents for the Mr. Glover, realising that without the letters he could not figTit the suit by which he he will show that Mrs. Eddy is mentally Incapable of managing her affairs and that they are entirely in the hands of Calvin Frye, her footman secretary, Alfred Farlow, Irving C. Tomlinson, Louis C.

Strang, and others influenced by. these Christian Science leaders has not parted with a single letter. They are now In a safe of a trust company in Washington and have been seen by a few recently besides, Mr. Glover and his chief attorney, ex Senator The case in the New Hampshire state court in which it is hoped to bring out all the facts about the man agement of Pleasant View, the home of Mrs. Efly, Mr.

Mart'n says, cannot begin Inside of six months. Within a few days papers In connection with the bill In equity will be served on Mrs. Eddy despite any action that may be taken by Mr. Frye, General Street er or any of the others who have been to head off the legal proceeu livgs." As a result of today's conference it is expected that tomorrow the lawyers will file declarations in the equity court in suits against Farlow and Tomlinson, the only recognized lead ers of Mrs. Eddy's faith who live in Boston.

All property In Boston, which may figure in the suit will be attached if possible, the members of Mrs. Eddy's cabinet will be forced to produce here in court as a witness. Mr. Martin says that he realizes when General Streeter refused at the conference in Concord this morning to accept service of papers in the suit that what is to be done for the resent at least must be done. in Boston, RUEF IS, MISSING.

His Bsil in $60,000 Has Been Declared Forfeited. SAN FRANCISCO, March 5. The indicted boss, Abe Ruef Is a fugitive from justice. An attachment' has been issued for his arrest by Superior Judge Dunne and Ruefs bail In 150,000 has been declared forfeited. This Is a result of the failure of Ruef to appear today when his case was called for trial for extortion against French restaurant keepers.

Judge Dunne acted on the theory that there has been no regular legal proceeding before Judge Hebhard yesterday. Three times Ruefs name was called and when no reply was made a bench warrant was issued for his arrest. Twice the court took a recess to permit the sheriff to find the fugitive. Then when the sheriff reported he could not locate Ruef, Judge Dunne ordered adjournment until tomorrow. It Is not believed that Ruef has skipped out or is even in hiding, but the fact is the boss simply gavo orders to the "sheriff to overlook him until he shall' have found a new process to evade the law and a Judge who will act in his Interest.

BURIED IN A QUARRY. Nine Miners Killed and Nine, Injured by Explosion. EL PASO, March 6. Two explosions In the rock quarry of the Chihuahua and Pacific railroafct Sandoval, Chihuahua, yesterday killed and burled nlpe men and seriously Injured nine more. A charge of dynamite prematurely exploded.

Hearing the report, there was a rush made to the rescue. But a second, explosion followed, burying the men who had been Rescuers are still kt digging the imprisoned men out. The quarry was maintained for the purpose of getting rock to ballast the railroad. iftlE SCRANTON ilEPUBUCAlI, WEDNESDAY. MARCH 6.

1S07. BURGESS MAY DECIDE! Duamore's Deadlock in Council Not Likely to Defeat Reorganization flans. SITUATION IS UNCHANGED Wlthtn the past twenty four hours, nothing has occurred which will change the deadlock in Dunmore poll tics aud permit the new council to organise. Both sides show the determination indicative of no quarter, and it is likely. that the limit of the law will be reached before anything will be done by either party which will compromise itself in any way.

The status of the Dunmore council is the result of a recent reform wave which swept over Dunmore at the same time it raged in other sections of the valley. It is not a new situation in Dunmore, however, being more or less characteristic' of that borough. At the present time, the business administration ticket has control of practically all departments of govern ment except the treasurshlp. Reorganization was attempted in council along the same line, but a wheel sIId ped when khe matter of solicitor was considered. As a matter of fact, the deadlock will not prove fatal to the present or ganization, inasmuch as.

the burgess, under the act of 1S97, has the author Ity to cast the decisive vote whenever council is deadlocked in reorganization. Council stands three votes to three on the matter of a solicitor, and the burgess can ehoose whom he will and end the dispute there. WhHe there are other divisions, the real controversy is over the selection ui Auorney k. a. Zimmerman or James McDonald for solicitor.

Ferguson, Hennigan ahd McDonnet are pledged to McDonald, and Jones Miller and Manley for Zimmerman wmie tne office is on a contingent fee basis and oftimes valuable, yet the struggle. Is said to be one of prin cipie on both sides. In event of a deadlock, the councils have ten days within which to organ ize. The burgess can then act stated. If the statements of the con testants are to be believed, it is likely xnai wie Durgess will be obliged to act.

There are other offices with two candidates, however, and It it said that a compromises may be affected for the of securing' offices ror the others. i nere is likewise no apparent change in the Moosic borough situation, though attempts are being made to effect an organization there. Dickson City, the, one borough of the valley where trouble was anticipat ed, organized smoothly. It has leak ed out that an opportunity was nre sented to the Hufnagle contingent to organize their own way had they so desired. After the regular business meeting, several of the McGerritv fac tion left the room and left a vote of four to three in favor of the Hufnagle faction.

Although the suggestion was made, the decision 'was reached that It would be taking an unfair advantage and the temptation was success fully resisted. North End. The members of the Father Whltty rloclety fittingly celebrated the one hundred and twenty ninth anniversary of the Irish patriot and hero, Robert Emmet, In their pleasant quarters In St. Mary's hall Monday evening.

Naval production, as distinguished from mercantile ship tonnage, the fact may be emphasised that Britain, although behind in Its usual output relatively to that of all other countries combined, still maintains its position in respect to the! two power standard, especially so when it is considered that mere tonnage does not now so truly measure the fighting efficiency of our navy.

Germany, Russia, the United States, Japan, In this order of prece dence, have all made notable augmen tation to. their fleets, Japan having built and launched the world's largest battleship. Of. the twenty six vessels of 43,300 tons built by the latter coun try, three of 2,200 tons were to Chinese account, and this appears of some slg nificance when Japan's importance as, a shipbuilding country is" concurrent with China's apparent awakening to "navy heeds." Just as in the case of heavier ordi nance and other armament develop ment rendering the term tnnnage less fitting than it was as a measure of the fighting efficiency of naval ships, so now the term indicated horse power less than ever conveys an adequate measure of the efficiency and' character of their propulsive machinery. Turbines, water tube boilers, oil firing.

and other matters are undefined fac tors in the case which require some individual reference. That the admir alty are quite satisfied with the re suits of the Dreadnought's trials the fact of this great "engine of war' having been launched, tried, and com missioned within the year should make 1906 memorable as the Dreadnought year is evidenced by the fact that the three ships to be started in the financial year 1906 7 are practically to be repetitions of her. The Dread nought's turbine machinery was made by Mr. Parson's firm under a sub con tract with Vickers, Sons Maxim. The three cruiser battleships Invin cible, Inflexible and Indomitable, now being by contract, are each to be engined on the same system as tne Dreadnough.

the power being about 40,000, and the speed twenty five knots. In these and other smaller ves sels of the destroyer type the Parsons turbine is supreme. The naval authorities of other coun tries, although they have not commit ted themselves decisively to anything very large in the way of the applica tion of the turbine either of the Par sons or other type have during the past year not been listless. The United States authorities are awaiting the results of experiments which they have been making with cruisers fitted with Parsons' and with the Curtis type of turbines, and besides being greatly impressed with the Intrepidity of this country in connection with the Dreadnought and with the express Cunarders, they are also awaiting re suits in these directions. The German naval authorities also look to the bold British ventures to afford them guidance, while they meantime undertake exoerlments of their own.

Their first turbine boat, the cruiser Lubeck, has been generally successful, and tur bines are to be fitted to one of the large cruisers in the 1907 programme. The French and Russian governments have decided to adopt turbines in battleships, and the Italian government Is fitting turbines by Parsons in the armored cruiser San Marco, now beina built at Castellamare. The increasing and projected xur ther use of oil fuel in the navy is also a line of development which the year's experience has more definitely made clear. All the large ships have oil fuel fittings and storage for a large quan tity of oil fuel, which will greatly In crease their radius of action, besides reducing: like the employment of turbines the machinery staff required. The projected destroyers are ar ranged solely for oil fuel.

In an enumeration of the six largest merchant steamships built during the year it is seen that fourth place is taken by the Kronprinsessin Cecille, the product of the Vulcan company, of Stettin, Germany, and it is noticeable that while Germans are seemingly not Inclined immediately to follow the lead of the Cunard company with regard to increased speed by turbine propulsion. they are determined to keep abreast, at least in the matter of great size and luxurious appointment. In this connection It instructive to npte that a feature of the 1906 returns from Ger many was that, or. seveniy uiree vessels built there of over 1,000 tons, twenty one were of 5,000 tons and upward, and eight were of 8,000 tons aud upward. The 104,000 tons built in this country to German account wero mostly made up of purely cargo steamers of between 3,500 and.

5,000 tons. Orders which have been recent ly placed in this country by the Ham burg American company lnciuao a 600 foot mall and passenger steamer at Belfast and several vessels of 300 feet and 850 feet length In the Cldye and the northeast coast. The Vulcan company is to build a similar vessel to the 600 foot boat ordered at Belfast, and It Is understood that it was only because the Stettin firm were not in a position to build both In time that they did not receive the order tor now. Be cause of the more favorable prices of engines obtained in this country, a German company last year ordered a number of sets of engines for. hulls which are being built In home yards.

Only the Lancashire and Yorkshire, the London and Southwestern, and the Great Eastern are now In this rate gory, but It Is rumored that the two latter will put turbines Into their next new steamers. The fast turbine steam ers built 'and being built by the well known Cockerlll company for the Gels Ian service between Ostend and Dover need only bo mentioned. The most notable advance during 1906 was made in foreign countries, where, i mtmmm lifts nfllv tln reached which Britain had arrived at five years ago. Dunne the year well known companies in France, Belgium, Russia, Japan and the United 8 tales took out licenses to manufacture the Parsons turbine, although, of course. In this country this rifht has been ar i ranged for by almost every British engineering firm of standing, this entailing, in most cases, the laying down of expensive new plant for the purpose.

America produced her first turbine propelled steamer during the year the Governor Cobb and she was placed on the Boston and St. John's (N. route at a time nearly corresponding to the placing on the Clyde service, five years ago, of the pioneer passenger turbine steamer King Edward. The American vessel has three Parsons turbines of 5,000 indicated horse power made by the Fletcher company, of Ho boken, N. J.

Two other turbines are being built at the same yards for the New York Boston service, and one is being built at Bath Me, for coastwise service. The obstacles in the way of properly accommodating or wedding the rapidly moving efficient turbine to the slow moving efficient' screw propeller have not been materially lessened or changed by the experience acquired of late, and Mr. Parsons' proposed adaptation of the turbine and the reciprocating engine, in which the turbine would utilise the steam after doing its work in the1 cylinders of the reciprocating engine, has not so far declared itself in practice. This adaptation, he estl mates, will save from fifteen to twenty per cent, in the cost of coal, and Mr. Parsons himself expects to see, in ac tual service, very shortly, a vessel fit ted in, this way.

Both for naval pur poses at low speeds, In vessels priniar ily designed for high speeds, and for the slower classes of merchant ships the combination proposed will soon be tried, and its value attested in actual service. The movement for propelling trading vessels of moderate size by Internal comDustion engines or one type or other suction gas, petrol, paraffine, etc. has not been very materially ad vanced during the year by anything actually done in this country, but on the continent various partially sue cessful, and on the whole very prom lsing, trials have been carried out. On the Clyde the firm of Beardmore con tlnue to experiment with engines of the "OaDitalne" tvne nsinc nrndunpr gas, and this year, no doubt, definite progress will be made. A small trad ing vessel, motor propelled and 'carrying some two hundred tons, has been running for some time between Swan sea and Avonmouth, and the Ailsa Shipbuilding company, of Troon, has on hand for MacBrayn's, 'of Glasgow, a vessel of one hundred feet in length to be propelled by motor, and do trad ing service in the West Highlands.

Of course, tor pleasure and tender services motor boats are now a common product, and marvellous results are be lng attained by Thorncroft, Yarrow Whitennd the other noted builders of sucn Motor veaette boats are now being built for the ew Dread noughts, which are fifty one feet over all, and It is estimated that an Internal combustion engine, specially constructed to work with the same fuel as in the batleship's boilers, of two hun dred and fifty horse will give the same results, as to speed and its cost, as the steam engines and boiler of three hundred and fifty horse power which would otherwise have been In stalled. For the successful motor en glnes which home firms are now turn ing out in great numbers, this country has, no doubt, largely to thank other countries. Both in German and Dutch waters steam has been almost entirely superseded by motor power in small Installations. That we should not be consent to allow our continental friends to lead in the larger and more utilitarian installations as well must be the care of British marine engi neers. The Engineer.

A plea of guilty to a charge of sending obscene matter through the malls its so ed "Red Light" personal column was entered in the United States circuit court by William Rand, counsel for the New York Herald company. The plea was entered on behalf of James Gor don Bennett, owner of the Herald, and Manley M.

There are many records already, within the brief time that these phenomena have been Studied, of great auroral displays and magnetic storms, seriously affecting the telegraph systems of the earth, coincident with sunspot dlstur. bances. The earth seems to respond to the sudden Impulse from the sun like a body Involved in an, Intense electric field.

If It were situated much nearer to the sun the effects would probably be tremendous, but even at Its actual distance it cannot escape them altogether. Unfortunately, science Is not yet able to predict with certainly the terrestrial effects connected with sunspots. Sometimes a great spot appears and no result Is apparent on our globe. It Is like a shot that has missed Its target fir that has been fired In another direction. Then, again, only a rela.

Wilson did not succeed In getting a likeness of the rock and requests that any person who may have one will please communicate with him or notify this office.
