THE FASTEST OF TRAINS.
An Average Speed Of 52.2 Miles AN Hour
for 40 Miles.

BUFFALO,, Oct. 26.-The Empire
State Express of the New York Cen
trail Railroad, on its first trip to-day,
demonstrated its right to be called the
fastest train in the world by traversing
the 40 miles between New York and
Buffalo in eight hours and forty-one
and three-quarter minutes, and it
achieved besides, at one stage of the
journey speed perhaps never before
attained by SO heavy train. The at
tempt to run regular passenger train
between the two cities named in eight
hours and forty minutes is result OF
the famous trip of Sept. IA, when the
unparalleled record of 44O miles in 433
minutes and A seconds was made.
The train was composed of combi-
nation buffet, smoking, and library
car, the Wagner buffet drawing-roo m
car Luxor, two New York Central
coaches, and Vice-President &. Walter
Webb's private car Mariquita, which
carried the official Of the road and the
reporters. The same engines drew it
that pulled the flyer of Sept. "A, but
only engine s62, on the western divi-
sion, had the same crew. John Moran

Will They Pause to Contider.
TSpartanburg Herald.


Mr.. IF. ). Caldwell of Newberry
has written very able and sensible
article in The News and Courier, show
ing the folly of Southern politicians in
hazarding the success of the Democratic
party in the United States by substitut-
ing the sub-treasury and free coinage
issues for Tarif-reform and home rule.
Unquestionably the Democrats Of the
South are doing their party great harm
in such states as Connecticut, New
York and New Jersey by the promin-
ence given to side issues.
The elections last fall proved beyond
doubt that on the question of tariff
reform the democracy is sure of victory.
But no sooner was this proved than the
enemies of. democracy injected the
issues of free silver coinageand the sub
treasury plan, not for the purpose OF
having them become laws, but to
divide the party and to make demo
cratic success in those States that are
not interested, impossible.
The people Of the South have been
led astray for the moment. They are
apparently needless to arguments, but
we cannot believe that they will fail tc
be impressed by such dispassionate
statements of the situation as Mr.. Cald.
we'll has prepared.
