Railway improvements Needed.

To the Editor ofthe Scientific American.
The recent terrible railway accident
on the line of the c.. NJ & St p. Rv
Co., near Rio, Wis, sends a shudder
through the entire country, aud again,
as after each previous disaster of this
kind, the question arises, Is there no
way to prevent these dangers to which
every traveller is liable?
As a step in the direction of great
er safety, there are two things which
must be accomplished:
LIST. Some means must be found
to stop trains even more quickly, than
by the use of air brakes. This can
probably be accomplished by an in
crease of friction, and it is for our in
ventors TO say how this increase can
be gained By way of suggestion, 1
would ask if boxes of sand cannot be
placed near each set of wheels; the
same to be controlled from She engine
/ believe that by means of air brakes
the sliding of the wheels is possible;
if not, it could be made so. The pre-
sence of sand on the rails would then
add materially to the friction
md. In order to do away with the
horrors of a burning wreck, other
methods than those now employed,
must be found for heating and light
ing passenger cars. They might be
lighted by the use of electricity, tho
that is not Of 50 much Importance as
the matter Of heating.
1t has been demonstrated only too
often that fire cannot be safely carried
in passenger coaches, and it is imDrao-
ticable, in this northern country, 10
attempt to heat the ears by steam
from the engine. There is one me-
thod, however, viz, the use of soda
1t Is well known fact though n re-
cent discovery, that soda when charg-
ed with steam is q source of great
heat. Cannot this knowledge be prac-
tically applied for heating purposes?
l should think that metallic eases of
soda might be arranged in a car, and,
being charged from the engine, heat
the car either by radiation or, perhaps
better, by the generation Of steam in
suitably arranged boilers. In the
latter case, the steam, after passing
around the car through pipes, could
be discharged into the soda, and thus
a recharge from the engine be requir-
ed less frequently.

HOnoring HIS Memory

Milwaukee Sunday Telegraph.
A movement has been inaugurated
in the Eighth Congressional district
which meets with hearty commendat-
ion from nearly all classes, both
in and out Of the district, and
almost irrespective of party ties. Re
ference is made to the suggestion to
nominate Mr.. Hugh II. Price for CON
gress TO complete the term which his
honored father would have finished on
the 4th of March next. Many favor
the proposition because of its kindly,
touching and appropriate rememb-
rance of the late Congressman Price.
Others, who know the son and his
worth, not only favor it for that rea-
son, but because they know that the
son would acquit himself to the credit
of the district and state. He is man
of more than ordinary ability, is well
educated, refined, possesses marked
capacity as a business man, is well
posted on public matters, and in all
respects a most worthy gentleman.
He is not politician in the common
acceptation Of the term. He could
not be crowded into accepting long
term of service IN congress, or in any
other public position for he is thorough
" devoted to his extensive business
interests which will be rendered still
more exacting in consequence of his
fathers death His nomination would
not be in the way Of any ambitious
man in the district; His term would
not exceed six weeks. II must be APP
parent to every well-posted politician
in that district, and IN the state as
well, that his nomination would prove
a source of very decided strength to
the nominee for the long term All
who speak Of the suggestion to honor
the memory of the dead congressman
by honoring his only son, are prompt
to declare that the nomination would
be very handsome thing, and entire
ly appropriate. There is reason to
believe that there will be little or no
opposition to his nomination, and that
he will be elected by an immense ma i
ority. Mr.. Price is a native of Black
River Falls, exceedingly popular with
all classes who know him, a promin-
ent Mason, being a member Of Wis
consin Conistory, and though still a
young man, only IS years of age, has
a large circle of friends Throughout the
state, all Of whom would rejoice to see
him complete his fathers term in the
Forty-ninth congress. That republic
ans generally will readily join in thus
honoring the memory of the late Mr.
Price, there seems to be no room for
doubt; that the large soldier element
IN the district, as we'll as throughout
the state, will raise both hands ii favor
of it, is very certain; and thar thou
sands of democrats in the Eighth dis
trict will be glad to aid in honoring
the memory of their dead friend by
honoring his son, there is every rea-
son to believe. What could be more
handsome and appropriate than to
elect Mr.. Hugh II. Price to complete
the unexplred term of his late distin-
guished father?
