S. B. BROWN, Treasurer By May First All the Mater ial for New Switchboard Will Be in Albany. Manager Yarbrough, of the Albany Telephone Exchange, met a -Herald reporter this morning and told him joyfully of the shipment of the part of the material for the new switch-boards which will be put In at the Albany ex change. Mr. Yarbrough had the 'bills of lading showing that these goods were shipped from New York on April 13, and he Is expecting them to arrive this week. The shipment of the other material necessary to Install the -new cwltcli-board will be made this week, and Mr. Yarbrough confidently expects to have everything here and In readi ness for the work of Installation to ’'egin by Mny 1. As the public knows, the Southern Bell Telephone & Telegraph Company decided some time ago to change the system In use at the Albany exchange and to replace the one which has been In operation to what Is known as a common battery system'. The new system Is the one that Is being used In all tho large cities, and does away with the necessity of turning a crank to ring the bell that tells Central that .vou want her attention. The.telephone people have promised Albany a jam-up telephone service when the new system Is Installed, and for that reason the people have been impatiently awaiting the promised change. The present system has not given satisfaction to the subscribers, but It Is hoped that the new switch- bonrd will greatly Improve the ser vice. It was thought that the strike among telephone linemen might occasion a delay In the installation of the new system, but Manager Yarbrough says not. He says that the strike does not affect him at all. None of his men have struck, and he does not appre hend that they will go out. As soon as the new material arrives he says he will be In position to undertake the work of changing and rebuilding the system. ■ TRAFFIC /DOUBLED On the A. -C. L. Train Slnae the New Schedule --Went Into Effect. The real-need tor the'Change In schedule whtoh went Into effect on the B. & W. branch of the Atlantic Coast Line on April 8 is -strikingly demonstrated by the' fact that the number of passengers .hauled on these trains has about doubled :slnco -the change was made. Albany has been .clamoring for a better schedule on this-line of road for a long, long .time, anti one of the points made ’In .-presenting the matter before -the railroad authorities was ’that-the-change’In schedule would be profitable to the railroad ’In that It would greatly increase The amount of travel on-the trains affected. The railroad put these new sched ules on at the urgent inquests of the Albany Business League and others In Albany and along the line of road. Of aourse, It was not .expected that the schedules would be continued If the truffle did -not justify them. It la. grati fying, therefore,' that .the .traffic on these trains huB Increased sufficiently to Insure the continuance of these very convenient schedules.
