Tho investigation into tho railway disaster at
Wigan, England. shows that thore arc 22o rogu-
lnr trains running on tho road, exclusive Of ox-
ouzsiona, specials, engncs, xepair tzaina, etc.
This fucs is calculated to create surprise that
there aro so few accidents, according 70 the
American standard Of comparison, aud indicates
TINT our systom Of railway management is not
30 thorough and careful IS TINT OF England.
Tho Wigan disaster was caused by displace-
mont OF switch 30 near tho station-house that
tho cars wero thrown against It and amashod.
This displacement waa altogether unaccountablo.
aa moro than half Of tho whole train had passed
over tho switch before 1t occurred. It is shown
that the switch must havo been diaplscod in sone
myateriouB manner after tho first seventoan
coaches had passed, as 1t wsa not damaged in any
way, though 1t would have been il thoro had boen
no displacement. Tho rate Of speed, 1t WAS also
discovered, was hirty-sovon miles an hour wlaile
passing the etation. Formerly there WAS law
in England requiring oil trains to come down to
spood Of seventeen miles al hour while paas-
ing station. This law Was abandoned On nc
count Of tho confidence placed IN tho systom Of
locking switches by signals. Tho accident at
