Consolidated Road Urges Care in Mark
ing Couplings.
The Consolidated road has posted a
notice on its official bulletin board
calling the attention of trainmen t0
the fact that large numbers of steam
couplings are being broken and pulled
apart because of the carelessness of
the trainmen in leaving the couplers
fastened when cars are being pulled
apart. it is a common occurrence
for the tralnmen to leave the couplers
fastened after uncoupling the regular
apparatus on passenger trains. Either
the trainmen do this through forgetful-
ncss or because of their hurry, which
makes them careless of details."
The steam couplers are so construct-
ed that a hard pull will generally do
their them, thus performing mechani-
cally what should be done by the yard-
men and by hand. The trainmen.
doubtless, rely too much on this fact.
for on runny cases the coupler instead
of becoming detached at the. proper
moment hangs together and yanks one
or the other coupler heads from the
hose. The result is a visit to the rev
pair shop and endless petty tasks for
the repairers. who. in any event. are
always well provided with Jobs.
The local traiumen state that. there
is little trouble. of this nature on the lo
cal lines. Thcv state. that some of
the cars shipped to this city. from 0th
er lines have been traveling on the
road for some months without visiting
the repair shops. Such cars some-
times meet with accidents of this 11111

TELEPHONE COMPANY HALTO.

onus Ito Capital.
The annual meeting of the stock-
holders of the Southern New England
Telephone Company will be held at
the oliees of the company Tnsshday
afternoon. President Tyler will pro-
bably make a statement as usual or
the affairs of tht1 company and of the
improvements completed and in prog-
ress.
There. has been a rumor to the ef-
fect that the telephone company would
soon increase its capital stock. Ac-
cording to rumor it was the plan to
take advantage of the right granted by
tin1 legislature and increase the cap-
ital to the $5,000,000 limit. The re-
port is, however. not trite, and it was
stated’in New Haven. Saturday. auth-
oritatively that the company does not
contemplate such a step in the near
future. What the legislature was ask-
ed to grant permission to increase. the
company’s capital to $5.000.000 It was
done in order that the company might
issue additional stock whenever the di-
rectors saw fit to do so. By a vote of
the stockholders two years ago the
capital stock was increased to $3.000.-
000, and nearly 111i the new stock was
taken up by the stockholders.
While the company is making gcncr~
nl improvements on its property and
extensions needed by tb‘t1 ever increas-
ing hrn' Incas, it. is stated that President
Tyler has not yet indicated any plan
that would warrant another issue of
stock. , Southern New England 011 the

INDEPENDENT OPERATORS AGAIN
AitorneyDarrow Wants Presidents of
Coal Read: to Testify.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 28~The An-
thracite Coal Strike Commission heard
additional testimony from the inde-
pendent operators today. The. exam.
inatlon of witnesses by counsel for the
miners was conducted with a view to
ascertaining why the independent op-
erators preferred to permit their mines
to be. flooded rather than grant. their
employees an eight hour working day.
John Weber. superintendent of J. S.
Wentz'a iiazelbrook colliery. was of
the. opinion that the company wanted
to manage its own businesa.
Attorney Darrow, for the miners. ad-
dressed the commission, and asked
that the presidents of the coal carrying
roads be brought before. the controls
sion to testify concerning the alleged
restriction of the coal production.
“There has been testimony before
this commission." said Mr. Darrow.
“that the miners have limited the coal
production. We believe the restriction
has been made by the operators. But
so long as the companies have made
the charge 1 want them to bring before
the commission the presidents of the
coal roads in order that we may be able.
to learn the facts.“
