TRACKLESS TROLLEY IS HERE
Experimental Ltae Operated la a
Meaatala Ckayts la Calt
forala. tVs have had considerable to say about
"trackless troHey" cars tn .Germany, and
now we learn that a "trackless trolley"
hjis been tn operation near Los Angeles
for two months, with "entire satisfaction."
R. W. Shoemaker, an electrical engineer of
Los Angeles, Is the constructor of this line
that will reduce his brother shoemakers'
business. He writes to the Literary Digest:
From an article about a year ago on the
trackless trolley In Germany, waa con
celved the Idea of using on In Laurel
canon, near Los Angeles, from the end of
the Los Angeles Pacific railroad at the)
foot of the canon to "Bungalow Land,"
real estate subdivision In tha heart of the
mountains. Tha mile and a half of canon
road Is mostly curves, there being only
about 1.000 feet of straightaway, and the
grades ranging from t to 11 per cent, hence
the road la well suited to teat tha prac
ticability of the system. The cars, how
ever, glide around tha curves with marvel
lous ease, first on one side of tha road
and then on the other. Germany's experi
ence with the trackless trolley has been
that they are best suited for use In steep
mountain grades, where speed la not essen
tlal. On tha Laurel canon route a maxi
mum of twenty-fire miles an hour Is pos
atbls where tha road Is straight, but ten
miles is all that Is attempted on the curved
portions of the line.
Automobiles were used for transporta
tion previous to tha Installation of the
trolley, but these were too uncertain and.
owing to the grade, too expensive to main
tain. The expense of constructing a track
and overhead aa for a regular system would
have been excessive, and It would also
have ruined ths road for automobiles, as
It Is a pass tn the hills, and It would also
have marred ths scenic effects, which ara
especially attractive In thla locality. For
theaa reasons the trackless trolley Is ths
logical solution, as It combines simplicity,
reliability and economy, both la tha first
cost and In maintenance.
Two 'busses were fitted with especially
designed and constructed motors of fifteen
horse power rating, 600 volts, each motor
driving one rear wheal by chain, thus elim
inating tha differential. The control la by
means of a series parallel controller
mounted on the dash, to the left of tha
steering wheel, tha reverse switch being
operated by a handle to tha right of tha
wheel. Tha uauai expanding and contract
ing brakes are fitted aa in the regular aute
moblla. Tba trolleys are mounted on tha roof af
the 'bue, approximately twenty-four Inches
back of the front axle and placed forty
eight tnchea apart, which la ths spacing of
the trolley wires. Ths polesars of wood,
fifteen feet long, and carry a special
swivelled form of collector at the end.
which Is arranged to slip off without dam
age In ease the pole should leave tha wire
and the collector catch on the overhead.
These trolleys allow a total variation of
eleven feet on each side off the center of
the roadway, and at slow speed will op
erate when making an angle of seventy
five degrees with the trolley wire and will
a'.ao allow the car to be completely re
veraed In direction under the wires without
change, although It la of course neceasary
to turn the polos after the car haa turned
' n(1 befor ' c Proceed, as the poles are
crossed and projecting forward. The trolley
wires are suspended from pipe arm brack
ets fastened to the telephone poles alone
ths road. Ths care always obey the rulea
of the road and pass to the right of ap
proaching vehicles regardleea of the loca
tion of the trolley wires.
Tha system haa been la operation new
for two months and fives entire satis
faction. Fsrsistent Advertising Is ths Road to
Illg Heturns.

How much should a trust company allow

How much more does a rust company

proportion of Its household expenses should

millions already willed?
8uch la the problem which has been con
fronting Surrogate Edgar Jackson of
Nassau county. New Tork. Just aa It has
confronted so many other legal tribunals
before. The trust company wants to know,
too, for It haa all kinds of money ready
at a moment's notice for tha Infant If
only tha court will allow It to pay ths
amount.
"Twenty thousand a year Is not too much
for my child," says Mrs. Adolph Laden-
burg of the Meadow Brook Hunt colony
and New Tork In making her application
for her daughter, Mlsa Eugenia, now 14
years old.
They expect to ba in Europe for ten
months or so, and Miss Eugenia must have
the money. Vnder her father's will the
girl waa made the ward of tha Central
Trust company of New Tork. She was his
only daughter and she shared tha estate
of the late Adolph Ladenburg, a Wall
street millionaire, together with her
mother. But ahe was not to get tha money,
of course, until ahe waa of age.
When her father was drowned from an
ocean steamer little Mies Ladenburg was
barely out of baby dresses. Bo the money
went to the business-like financial cor
poration which cared nothing for saddls
horses or lessons In Italian or mualo or
trips to Europe or porcelain-filled teeth or
any of those Other little necessities of the
children of the rich. Aa they took It. their
job was to let her have enough for food
and clothes and save up the rest until she
came of age at 18, when they could turn
over the entire fortune to the young lady
now come of legal age and capable of car
ing for her millions herself.
But Mrs. Ladenburg has other Ideas.
She wants her daughter to be brought up
with all tha luxuries that are necessities
to a child of a rich man. Why handicap
her when she has hundreds of thousands
In bank? Therefore the case ' In court.
Mrs. Ladenburg, through her lawyers, has
turned In a written estimate of her daugh
ter's necessities J?0,000 a year Is less than
It will cost to bring up her daughter In her
position socially. Sixteen-year-old Miss
Eugenia, If she is to have the advantages
of others of her own wealth and social
position, needs money.
Coaaiaa; Dowa ta El rare.
Tha court wanted particulars. Mrs.
Ladenburg gave them. Now, there are
many children whoee fathers and mothers
are richer than Mrs. Ladenburg; or her
dead husband. But their fathers are not
dead, and so their expenses need not be
passed upon by a court of law. But here
Is Mrs. Ladenburg with a fatherless daugh
ter who has millions and needs part of tha
Income of them to bring her up as she
ought to be brought up. So this Is her
estimate of what It should coot to car
for Mlas Eugenia, aged II. for one year:

This waa the estimate whloh Mrs. Laden

expenses, and she asked the court to add
an amount for pocket money besides, leav
lng that to the Judgment of the surroarate.
And hla decision was that 98.000 a year waa
enough for any girl of 14, no matter how

A Tew-Year-OH'i Biseasta,
few days ago Surrogate Cobalan waa
called upln In New Tork to decide ths
question whether or not 13,000 a year Is
too much money for the proper support aad

born with a silver spoon In his mouth aad

Tha boy Is Hunt Tllford Dickinson, who

Toung Dickinson's Income la at present
190,000 a year. His father, A. O. Dickinson
of 170 West Fifty -ninth street, applied to
the surroarate to fix the lad's allowance at
126.000 a year.
"I don't think I will allow over $S.0ro.-
r -marked Surrogate Cohalan. "I don't
think more than that amount would be
good for a 10-year-old boy."
Then there are the famous Hamersley
children. Their financial fortunes seemed
linked wtlh those of little William de la
Poer Bereeford of England. The founder
of tha fortune was Andrew Gordon Ham
ersley, merchant and real estate Investor.
When he died he made an agreement with
hla only son, Louis C. Hameraley, that. In
herltlng the entire Hamersley fortune him
self, he was to leave It "to the first male

But ther were other Uttle HamersleyB
who were born to J. Hooker Hameraley.
There ware three. One died a daughter
and the charities that hoped to get his
115,000,000 began to hope. Then came an
other . daughter, Mlsa Catherine, and a
son, Louis Gordon. That ended tha hopes
of the chanties, for here were two Hamer
sley a Tha father died soon afterward. A
little later Mra, Hameraley died, leaving;
not only har own fortune, but the entire
Hameraley fortune to her two children.
How much to jive them? This waa In
1904. They had a fine brownstotie houae at
No. 10(0 Fifth avenue to keep up, and they
had to have lessons and teachers and food
and clothes aad dancing and all the other
thlnics which are necessary for the children
of tha rich. Bo the courts allowed them
teOO a year apteoe. Out of thla they had
to pay for their homo aad tha wages of the
servants, their clothea, food and amuse
ments. It waa hard making both ends
meet on SU.000 a year.
How could children who wre to share
815,000,000 get along on ftf.OOO a year? So
lawyers were engaged and the truat com
pany whloh held their Inheritance was sued
in a friendly way. So $30,000 a year was
allowed for the Hamersley boy and girl
815,000 for the boy. who is at boarding
school at South born, Mass., and $15,000 for
Miss Hamersley, who Is a debutante of hut
December.
Their school bills naturally go nowhere
near ,000 a year, but there waa the Fifth
aTonue mansion, presided over by the old
. .... .
nurse, Sarah Uowiie. and lt'a retinue of
servants, which had to be kept up. And so
the 130.000.
In tha ease of the Frank J. Oould the
court went at It this year In a more gen
eral meaner. When Mrs. Frank Jay Oould
got a divorce she was allowed $40,000 a year
for the support of hareelf and her children.
The children were turned over to Miss
Hatem Oould, thetr aunt, with wttom they
are now, and young Mra. Gould married
Ralph Thomas, a youngster from Tale,
who bad Inherited $1,000,000 from his father,
one of the Sugar true. Miss Helen Oould
haa not appUed to the courts for any
money for tha little glria, Helen aad
Dorothy, bow aad f years eld, respec
tively. Query again! How much should be al
lowed to them, with a mother who Is rich,
a father who haa $10,000,000, and alimony
of $40,000 a year granted to thetr mother?

Fred Brualng, present chairman of the
Board of County Commissioners, haa
again appeared la the field as a candidate
for the position of matron of the reten
tion Home, left vacant by the resignation
of Mrs. H. H. Heller. The board dlacusaed
putting Mr. Pruning in charge of the home
for waifs and children detained for the
Juvenile court authorities even before Mrs.
Heller's resignation was made, but after
shs decided to leave her post and go to
be matron of the women's building at the
state university, his name was dropped.
Mrs. Elisabeth Howe Byrn. assistant to the
secretary of the Associated Charities, was
then considered the most likely candidate.
Har application is before the board in writ
