rABL.s.-A gentleman who writes from Stamford de-
dominates cur item OF Wednesday morning Sensa-
ton Card" He says:
cannot think that any at all acqusntsd with the facts
"a the case would deliberately Mr. Superintendent Hoy
Of the New Haven Railroad Of such careessne would
appear FROM card but that the information upon which the
article " a. written was doubtful inclined ash whether
the article written by friend Of the Harlem Railroad
or some enemy Of Mr. Hoyt"
No Sir Neither one nor the other; but by one who
would just as soon censure msfeasance in the manage
ment of the one road as the other. by one who,
80 far from being an enemy to Mr. Hoyt, does not
know him-never to his knowledge having even met
him. or had any business with him. directly or indirect
w. He has no enmiiy, but on the contrary, admires
bis business capacity, but dskes his careessness for
that he acknowledges is the cause of these trains being
timed only one minute apart" The writer Is an oc-
casional traveller upon the New Haven trains, and
frequent traveller upsn the Harlem trains and got his
information from the timetables and tho conductors OF
these trains and not from the President nor Supern-
tendent but the information was true, and he assured
himself before printing it that it was not doubtful"
He is now happy learn that since Mr. Hoyt has seen
his error he has given orders 10 the conductor OF that
train TO run slow and look out" That pailates,
but il does not the error-th must be cured by
statute law applicable to all roads. Let our legioa-
tors at Albany look TO this and never adjourn until 1t
has secured some protection to railroad travellers
Our correspondent says that
The two trains are kept apart at least fee 'tnsf' Tor
such are the order, Superintendent Of the Newsven
Road Now by keeping that distance ard by running slowly
I caruot think the card In The TRIBUNE jSst"
We do; We think it just the thing to awaken the
public mind to such acts of creessness az endanger
the lives of SO many people. 1t was not written for

are the public that it has awakened sensation to such
grave error.
