JERSEY PASSENGERS. FREEZE r TROLLEY CARS, * Conditions, Instead of Growing Better, Daily Are Getting Worse— ‘Economizes by -Company Cutting Down the Service in Rush Hours. For several hours late last night the rolley stations in Jersey near the dif- ferent ferries were crowded with peoplo howling for heated cars. They refused to go aboard the cold cars, ark frequently @ car had to be sent along without a passenger, when ordinarily it would carry between fifty and one hundred people. The trolicy manngers, in spite of what they were told by the starters at the: different ferries concerning the crowds, continued to send along cold- storage vans. The result was that the People had to use the cars and freeze or walk. One of the newest complaints against the trolley company {s thatiof allowing cars to be run in winter time not fit to ride in eyen in “the good old sum- mer time."t ‘These cars are light in structure, have windows broken, tl doors can’t’be closed tight and there Is no way at all to heat them except by putting in a stove. One of these cars used on the Mont- gomery street line, Jersey City, late last night may prove the cause of al- most half a hundred people contracting pneumonia. The front doors would not remain closed until a passenger pro- duced a piece of stout cord with whi he tled them together, Before he did this the wind blew through the car with such force that it almost lifted people out of their seats. Old Cars Put Into Use. The latest thing in trolley ‘“‘style” in Hudson County {sa reduction in the aumber of cars run daily. Hundreds of extra cars were put on the different nes during the rush hours up to a| Pe} few days ago. Now the force used furing rush hours is about half of wha, it has been, This means double crowding of cars. Last night and early to-day the people had a sample of It. Almost every car run during rush hours was so crowded that the police had to interfére. There are probably no cars crowded nore than those of the Union Hill, Court House and Summit and Central ave- nue lines. sibly collect all the fares on such a A conductor could not pos-| fi? crowded car before {t reached the hill- top. The comgany has resertéed to a new scheme which will insure the col- lection of all fares. While the cars aro going up the steep incline which stretches from the Hoboken ferry tho Power is turned off. It is an excellent thing for the company, but tough on passengers, especially when the weather is as cold as at present. Tho reduction of the running forces of cars causes more delays. There are a number of people living in Jersey City and Bayonne interested in a movement to start a new trolley company in Hudson County. These peo- ple seem to think that the new Public jervice Corporation, with such men as United States Senators Kean and Dry- den pnd Thomas N. McCarter as its Bhagtlers, will be allowed to do just as they like'in Hudsoa County, especially as Col. Samuel D. Dickinson, Secretary of State, the personal friend of these men, is at present tho ‘political boss in Hudson County. To Orga: ize New Company. Former Street and Water, Commis- sioner John F, Madden, ilton place, is repeatedly trolley company for bad service, one of the.-people interested ‘in the scheme to organize a new trolley com- |Pany In Hudson County. “Of course, nothing could be dono this year, but by next wintor, {f our plans ‘can be car- rled out, we'will pe in a position to give the people better trolley service,” he said to-day, “It is my opinion that the néw Public Service Corporation can give the people better service right now, if it Will gpend the money, Instead of doing this the people are being jollied into the belief that every effort is being made to improve matters and conditions will be improved when more power is forth- coming. Next year, {f the new Public Service Corporation’ operates the trolley lires, the people will suffer ag many hardships as they have this winter. “The Evening World deserves great credit for the fight it 1s making for Better trolley service in Hodson Coungy card a gentleman who holds a re- sponsible position, with the trolley com- pany say a few days ago, ‘That By ing World is doing us a lot of harm,’ Charles Cassidy, former president the Second Ward Democratle Club, a blg hay and feed merchant, says: “It we could only get heated cars and have the cars run on schedule time, how. happy everybody would be! If The Bvening World | keeps Up Its fight 1 know there will be a decided change,” Edward Kenny, Jersey avenue and Fleventh street, sald: “Ihave lived in Jersey City many years, but never ex- erlenced such service in the trolley-car ine, It is the worst ever, and instead of improving 1s growing worse." NOTED NOVELIST WHO IS NEAR ea FROM OMEE WORE. Hurries to a Swiss Resort for Needed Attendance. LONDON, Jan. %.—Hall Caine, the planned his last romance. He is com- pletely broken down in health and fs in such physical condition that death may ome at any moment. Acting under the orders of physicians the stricken author started to-day for St. Moritz, Switzerland, where he will try the mineral bath treatment, Hall Caine has achieved world-wide distinction as a novelist of origthality and power. Born about fifty-five years ‘ago near Douglas, of Man, he made &@ special study oT the traditions and folk lore of the quaint little island in the Irish Sea. He became a power In its government, and rescued it from comparative ob- scurity by a series of romantic novels dealing with various epochs of its hin- tory and illustrating the character of the Celtic race which inhabits it. The best known of these books are “The Manxman’ and ‘The Bondsman.” His most successful dramatic works ‘The Christian” and ‘The Eternal which were produced in this city with Miss Viola Allen in the leading parts.
