Indianapolis, June 14—It was definitely learned here to-day th a t Joseph A. Swain, president ot Indiana S tate U n iversity at Blooininglon. has accepted tho call to the presidency of Sw arthm o ro Collego, P h iladel phia. - . Tho first Illum inated street signs in Brook lyn were lighted up last night. They are three In num b e r—one at the corner of Mon tague and Court streets, one .it the corner of Jorulcm o n and Kulton stre e t s and ,a. t h ir d at the corner of Hicks and Remsen streets. They are blue glass with white letters, through which the reg u lar s t r e e t llghi shines. They are m o re satisfactory with eiocirlo lights, bu t can bo used w ith gas, .and the one on H icks stre e t Is so used, a W eisbach burner being Inside It. Those th r e e signs are experim e n tal. They wore put up on the order of Borough P r e s i dent Sw anstrom , under the personal super vision of C h a rles M. Becker of the E lectri cal Reflector Company of M a n h a ttan. It Is claimed th a t nowhere are such aids to the stran g e r so much needed as here. But tho experim e n ts under Mr. Sw a n strom are re garded by those fam iliar w ith the subject as presaging the end ot a long fight betw een P resident C a n tor of M a n h a ttan and C o n trol ler G rout, which has a tt r a c t e d the atten tio n of the Board ot E s tim a te and A p p o rtionm e n t at several sessions. Mr. C a n tor favored an o th e r patent. H is choice was opposed because of tho malnte-: nance expense Involved. It v.a.s also ra th e r costly to put In a t first. It was ba.sed on the Idea of four lights each Illum inating ona face of a sign. These lights would have to come from Incandescent bulbs, and when ona of the four was out of service much of tho utility of the sign would be gone. The re placing of these bulbs was to bo a continu ous expense. Mr. C a n tor's a tt i tu d e was th a t there was some doubt as to tho serviceabil ity of th e alternative plan, and that the rich est city In the new world could afford to have the best in the m a rket. C o n troller Grout had m eanw h ile been con vinced by the argum e n ts of the Becker com pany. He opposed In th e Board of E s tlm a to the C a n tor plan, and Insisted that all the good re s u lts of w h at the M a n h a ttan p r e s i dent desired could be secured at much less cost to tho city. Both Mr. G rout and Mr. C a n tor are hard and persistent fighters when th e i r m inds are made up. T h e ir m inds were made up in th is case. Tho argum e n t was hot and heavy. No final conclusion was reached, but ot course the responsibility for draw ing up specifica tions on the contract to be given out rested w ith Mr. Cantor so far as M a n h a ttan was concerned, and he bad an advantage there. Ho'wever, Mr. C a n tor Is now understood to have m ade specifications which arc not ob jected to. and are regarded as fair by the company he has been opposing, and there la a belief In many q u a r ters th a t B e c k e r's crowd ■will get w h a t they want, chiefly on the score of economy. P r e s ident Sw anstrom was like B rer Rab bit In th is m a tter—he lay low. In a sense it was a fight such as have often come up betw een the borough presid e n ts and the Con troller, the present c h a r ter being particu larly calculated to develop such friction. B u t Mr. Sw anstrom has no special reason for standing in w ith Mr. C a n tor except t h a t th e y are both borough presidents. He may ob ject to th e disposition of G rout to hold up some appropriations which are thought to be desirable for Brooklyn, but he alw ays h a s to keep his eye on th e reprepontatlve of tho bigger borough across the E a s t R iver. So he w a ited and said nothing. Now he takes action which his friends aro sure he would not have taken if he had no t felt sure th a t G rout had vanquished C a n tor. For nobody who know s Mr. Sw anstrom a s sum es for a m o ment th a t he would consent to take for Brooklyn a cheaper service o t this so r t than M a n h a ttan's. T h a t isn 't his way of doing things. He Is a pretty h a r d fighter on his own hook, now and then. B u t If tho B e cker company has a patent good enough for M a n h a ttan th a t Is going to be ac cepted even by Mr. C a n tor. Mr. Swanstrom. isn 't going to be behindhand In finding ou t ju s t w h a t that p a ten t Is w o rth. Hence tho erection of the three experim e n tal signs. The expense of Installing the illum inated signs is going to be considerable, anyhow. The ones put up yesterday and used la s t night will cost about *15 apiece. It Is pos sible th a t there are about 2,000 stre e t cor n e r s th a t ought to he so Illum inated in Brooklyn. But these signs once p u t up are practically Indestructible, and Involve no ex tra cost for m a intaining the light. If they are satisfactory th e saving to the city, as com p a red w ith the C a n tor plan, will be w o rth some consideration. The Illum inated signs put up in B rooklyn yesterday are apparently a , 'iccess. To the stran g e r they are a perfect g \ The signs ot the blue glass w ith w h ite -rs are In closed in a m e tal fram e . Incandescent lights Inclosed in the fram e Illum inate the sign, which w ith th e ir larg e letterin g are vslblo half a bloc away. They a tr r a c ted the a tt e n tion of m a n y p e d e s tr ian s l a s t evenings. GA’X’NOR AND G R E E N E CASE U P . F u g itiire’s Counsel’W a n t C a rpenter Com m itted for Contem pt. Quebec.
