A COMMUTER'S KICK. Excites Tart Reply from President of I).. L. $ W. The following: correspondence regarding th«» service on the Delaware. Lackawanna & West tern Railroad was made public yesterday: N*o. 44 Broad street. Wav York, February 3. 1908. Mr. "William H. Truesdale. the Delaware, Lacka wanna & Western Railroad, No. SO West street, Near York City. Dear Sir: In line with the article which appeared In a newspaper this morning, entitled "Commuters tTp in Arras," "Montclair Dwellers Demand Better Service or. the Lackawanna," I am persuaded to present in connection with their protest a few facts which may appear somewhat remarkable. In view of the frequent and constant seemingly avoidable and unnecessary delays experienced ■while a commuter on your line. it occurred to me to jret out pencil and paper and find out just -what these, delays have cost your commuting patron?. I take? two instances in particular to illustrate my point: Kirst, my own experience has been, be ing obliged to get ax the office at 8 a. m.. to take the 6:54 a. m. train from East Orange daily. The train ha« been delayed west of the tunnel entrance fiom five to twenty minutes daily since the new tunnel was bearun. never less than five minutes and usually considerably more than ten. That means that delays have cost me In the last two years lot hours of time wasted. Now, reckoning the average tralnload as two hundred persons per seven-car train, you have levied two thousand business min utes from your patrons a day for the last two years, o: 312 working- days each. This would make 1.245.0G0 minutes, or 20.500 hours, or 2.600 working days, of eight hours each, or 8.6 years of time, counting 312 working days to the year. This, of came, takes account of only one train which has bam delayed, and all trains in the early part of the morning are more or less delayed at the tunnel. Now, we concede that the opening of the tunnel hi bound to cause delay, and we have put up with it without complaint, feeling certain that it was a means to an end; but th» main point of my con tention is this, that on account cf the snowstorm of January £*, a flight fall of nine Inches of snow should have so paralyzed your traffic that trains were delayed from two to three hour?. My own experience was a delay of two hours and a half. end a conservative estimate would put the average delay at two hours. Now, estimating an averaee delay of two hours for 3«) passengers on the 'rain, and about seventy-five trains due at Hoboken between the hours of 7 and 10 o'clock, there ana a delay of 30.000 hours, cr 3."0 working days of eight hours each, or exactly twelve years of 312 working days each. The above figures, of course, are very conservatively estimated, as your commuting traffic probably aggregates nearer 30.000 passengers a day than the 15,W with which I hay« reckoned. This also takes no account of th* numerous delays of trains coming out of the ter minal, which are pxasperatineiy frequent. The above figures appear to me astounding. I . •■•ems absolutely unfair that you should exact a toll from the business men of New York aggre gating an equivalent cf twelve years of business service on account of a nine-inch snow, which, it seems to m<«, there must be engineering ability <°nough in the country to obviate. It would teem to me that a cheaper solution of th« problem, per haps net for the Lackawanna. but for its patrons, would bo for the LacKawanna to establish some ■FBteaß of preventing a repetition of a block in the switches in the future. It certainly would be reasonable to expert that $1,000,000, if neces sary, expended in this way would not be extrava gant- Perhaps the entire yards could be covered over with sheds to prevent the enow covering the ■arttcbeßi or else a system of steam or electric heating which would m"lt the anow as fast as it Ml could be arranged. It strikes mo that It might be well to investigate the system in use on the Pennsylvania. I understand that the suburban traffic suffered no delay during that storm. There is no doubt that you would receive un limited praise and less complaints if these petty delays going in and coming out of the terminal could be avoided. If such things are allowed to continue it is only a question of tim» when the Lackawanna will become another Brie and will have to be the butt of jok»s in practically every edltloß of the newspapers. It hi a Dad commentary or. th« Erie that they are compelled to incorporate these Jok^s in a time table In order that the company may bo laughed at rather tan cursed at. E. C. VAN DYKE.

The suggestion you make as to sh»dding over f.ur entire Hobolwn yard for the sake. of preventing snow failing on our tracks is certainly n novel o«»«» ,■-■- will ionHl«Vr It. The only addition to ■•••. proposition that now occurs to dm in that, we build forty or Ofty Horl^a ov«*r the proposed shed, fol lowing the construction of the tower on the Metro politan IJfe Insurance Uuikling. and thereby fur nish to our different commuters apartments where they can live in winter, < harping them therefor the ■ana pri'-«-. a month that they pay for monthly tickets. This would enable them to avoid travel, ling on the Lackatvanr.a railroad and would be a very convenient location to do their JMaafaeaa, now that th» new tunnel is about beginning operation. Noting what you have to .say with regard to the Frl*". a prominent railroad gentleman whom I ran acroF3 the other day made this remark: "I se». Truesdale. that you '•"■' the Lackaw-anna. who are giving the best suburban service furnished by any railroad in this country, get about as many kicks from your commuters as the Erie, for instance, which does not make any pretensions to give eatis factory service." I suppose, though, he wan all artaajaj in his views as to our service being anything; but the worst *>ver- As a result of my thirty-odd ywirs' experience in the railway business I have long ago reached the conclusion that it is an absolute impossibility for railroad companies to provide service that will be anything but unsatisfactory to a certain element of their patrons.

LEWIS'S ORDEAL ENDS Cross-Examination at Capitol Trial Marked by Sensations. . Harrisburg. F"nn.. Feb. 10.-Nwoub and excited from a severe cross-examination by P. F. Kother aaat, of counsel for the defence, DM a Marl B. Lewis. assistant to Joseph M. Huston, the architect, caused a sensation to-day at the trial of the state Capitol conspiracy salt against Sanderson, Snyder. Mathues and ijhumaker. At an Intense moment, when Mr. Rothermel was trying to force Lewis to admit that certain state ment?? contained in the Huston letter to former At torney General Carson were false, the witness arose in hi* seat and produced a letter which, he said, would show why h» had been indicted in* the conspiracy suit?, and asked permission of Judge Knakei to make a statement. Mr. Rothermel in stantly objected. Deputy Attorney General Cunningham sprang to the witness, seized the paper, gave it a hurried glance, and then turned It over to Attorney General Todd. who carefully stowed it sway without dis closing its contents. Meanwhile. Lewis was on his feet declaring to Judge Kunkel that Mr. Rothermel had impeached the veracity of his statements and had dragged in the fact that he was a defendant to discredit his testimony, find demanded that he be allowed to put the letter in evidence. "I wish to Introduce evidence, your honor, which will show why I was indicted," pleaded the witness, pale and nervous. "That is not relevant to this case.'" said the judge calmly. "I'll find that out later on in my own way." re marked Mr. Rothermel. who resumed Us cross examination as to the truth or falsity of the Hus ton letter to Carson. Mr. Rothermel tried to force the witness to make an unqualified answer, but Lewis would not make a direct answer and Insisted that the statements In the letter were "partly true, with qualification.-." and "partly false, with quali fications." Mr. Rothermel appealed to Judge Kunkel several times to compel the witness to answer "yes" or "no" or hold him in contempt. Judge Kunkel ruled that the witness had answered to the best of his ability, and Mr. Rothermel discontinued his cross examination, the purpose of which was to discredit L^wis with the jury. Lewis was on the stand from last Thursday until rrar the close of to-day's session, and he showed plainly that it was a great relief when he was finally excused. The defence admits that he was a strong witness for the Commonwealth and asserts that without his testimony the state would hare been unable to make out a semblance of a case. When Lewis was called this morning he was allowed to make a statement correcting his testi mony concerning Mr. Carson's alleged participation in the conference at which Hustons letter was prepared. "When I said the tetter was gotten up with Mr. Carson," explained the witness. "I was confused and should have said In conference with Auditor General Snyder. "I have another correction to make," he con tinued. "The testimony r«»ads to the • ffert that T went to Harrisburg myself and saw Auditor Gen eral Snyder and Governor Pennypasker in confer ence, and also Hampton L. Carson, and went over this subject in detail. I desire to change, that ref erence to Mr. Carson to read that I saw th» At torney General about that tims and told him I was getting up a letter on the subject to n*-nd to him, and he fa.id I need not be In a hurry about it —that I should take my time." The commonwealth obtained the admission tB-4mj of a letter from Shumak»r acknowledging the re ceipt of twenty-five Senate chairs from Sanderson en January I<\ IMS, which are declared to have been paid for on the following day and which were not delivered until January 00. The state's lawyers claim that the fact that the chairs were certified to and delivered and paid for before th» actual shipment Is a strong evidence of conspiracy. In the redirect examination of Lewis the com monwealth shoTreri that two certificates •nhi'-h Snyder took to the office of T. Larry Eyre, in Philadelphia, for Huston's signature »(-re dated back to conform with bills rendered by Sanderson for goods which had been paid for before delivery; that the money "was advanced to Sanderson with out any consideration of tho amounts of his bills, ard that after the election of Stats Treasurer Berry, in November, I!*>s. Snyd»r and ether state officers added big amounts to old bills to make up the deficiency and had Huston is."=:i--; new certifi cates.

DOG SAVES ITS DEOWNING MASTER i Holds His H^ad Above Water Until Help Arrives. Nero, a Newfoundland doc belonging to Edward Meary. stenographer for the law firm of Guscen heimer. Cnteraayer & Marshall, living In Bay ]sth street. Bath Beach/ saved his master from drown ing yesterday. For the. first time in many years Gravesend Bay is frozen over so that it is possible to cross on the ice from Fort Hamilton to Ulmer Park. Meary was making the trip and ventured out so far that he broke through. Some men who were near heard his shouts for aid. but were afraid they would break through if they ventured near the drowning man. When they started for the Bhore the dog seized his master's coat in his teeth and held on. keeping Mr. Meary's head above the water until the men returned with planks and pulled out the half conscious man.
