1892 - The first successful automatic telephone system was introduced in Laporte, IN.

Strowger ran a funeral parlor.1900 - The first National Automobile Show opened in Madison Square Garden in New York City. A total of 31 car makers put their autoware on display.

The U.S. recognized Panama’s independence and sent a warship to prevent the Colombian military from quelling the revolt.

Irving later posted an apology on Instagram.
