a Bl~ Failure.

A Big Failure.
1t was supposed when the new passen-
ger station was erected at Clinton street,
Trenton, and the alterations made 10 the
tracks ct that point, that the accommoda-
tions for passengers would be much SUI
perior 10 those OF the old station, but re-
suits demonstrate that 10 that respect the
so-called improvements are lamentable
failure.
II the purpose Of the designer of the
buildings. sheds. tracks, &c., was to make
them all as announcement and inccnveni-
ent as possible, be has nobly succeeded.
A more dismal failure for the purpose To-
tended could not well be planned. The
old station was model OF convenience In
comparison. Now people are sent out of
the handsome station to walk long dis
lance, surrounded by hot iron walls In
summer, down long stairways and along
long reaches of track, to wait during the
storms OF summer and winter under an
IRON roof with no protection on the sides
or ends.
People who arrive on the Belvidere Di-
vision have TO walk long distance. go
up two flights of hard stairway. then
over two or three tracks, and again
down two flights Of uncomfortable stair
ways and long distance along the sheds
In order TO reach the eastboand trains.
For old people, 1t Is absolutely cruel.
Last Monday evening, four of our citi-
zsns on their way home from Ocean Grove,
telegraphed, as the Long Branch train was
late, to hold the Belvidere train. The
train was held, but as the party, Gone OF

them to get home by the midnight freight,
at A. NJ, after long walt and another
long walk to Coal Port. The travelling
public have q right to demand better ac-
commodations than those supplied at
