SPEED lessons DANGER.
With Proper Construction and Equip

With Proper Construction and Equip
ment Fast Trains May BE Safest.
1t may be said that in constantly de-
manding moro rapid facilities of travel
people invite corresponding increase
of the rate of danger to be encountered;
but, according TO writer in the Eng1-
neering Magazine, it is very doubtful
1T this proposition can be maintained.
The facts go to prove, rather, that
faster trains develop more care on the
part of the railroad people, and that
there is really little, if any, more liza
bliity to accidents on such account. AS
rule the ''NYild lrishnan" and ely
ing Dutchman" a0d Cannon Ball'
trains are run on schedules so arranged
as TO insure the utmost degree of
safety, SO far Us all ordinary contin-
gcncics are concerned. Their success
depends largely upon this point. cnd
the raiiroal companies we'll una:r-
stand that they cannot c!tCr,l t1
take any avoidable risk The de-
lGnd for increased speed carries with
1t the demand for increased prudence.
Fast trains must have men of superior
Skill and caution to operate them;
they must have good permanent way
to move upon, and they must be pro
vided with all known appliances for
security and comfort. The general eff
feet, in short, is to improve the rail-
road system in all respects, and to
eliminate from it the carelcssness and
incompetcncy that would be a source
of fixed peril under the slowast of fixed
time schedules. There must always be
more or less danger on q railroad train,
but it Is by no means sure that any
thing Is gained in the way of safety
by taking train which runs twenty
miles an hour instead of one which
goes five times as rapidly. On q. Eng
lish railway a high rate of spec. is
maintained, and this, when kept at a
regular rate, unchanged by numerous
; stops, is found to be safer than the
slower. rate. stopping often and sub
JcctinG machinery to conclusions and
jerks in starting and stopping, which
disorder parts of the train more than
is done by the uniform velocity of high
speed. The writer has covered the
space of five miles at the rate Of seven
ty miles Al hour, and, notwithstand-
ing this extraordinary speed, there was
an cntirc absence Of oscillation. So
far as any motion Of the cars was con-
cerned, it wns impossible to tell
who; or they were going at the rate
of sCs cnty miles an hour or twenty.
Tho multiplication OF fast trains there
fore is 4 thing to be commended and
encouraged, and the railroad authori-
ties arc wise TO make them as fast as
they can within reasonable limits of
forcthought and precauGion.

cording to this bill the bpeace effective,
excluding commissioned officers and nom
commissioned officers above the rank of
corporal, was to have consisted of 1922
06S men between October /, 1892, and
March 81, 1899. The strength of the va
rious branches of the service during the
period mentioned was to have been III
battallions of Infantry, ATT squadrons of
cavalry, 494 batteries of field artill cry, 81
battalions of foot artillery, "a bat talions
OF pioneers. seven battalions of the trans
port. The average strength of the stand
ing army was calculated in accordance
with the principle of two years active
service with the colors for the infantry
The increase involved the expenditure of
$66, 800.
Herr Payer, member of the Volks-
partei, followed the Chancellor. He de-
clared it was not true that the country
had pronounced for, nor did a majority
of the House support, the army bill.
Such small majority as the government
might obtain would only be secured
through diplomacy.
Freiherr Won Manteuffel, Conserva-
tive and an active supporter of the gov
ernment, said he regretted that the gov
ernment had abandoned its own bill for
the Huene compromise. 1t was impossi-
BILE for Germany to be too strong. The
riots in Paris, he added, furnished strik-
ing proof of this assertion. The mob
now shook, and might possibly over
throw, the French government and es-
tablish regime that might seek
strength through foreign diversion.

HIS PARTNER AWcTIM.
Portland Man Among Those swindled by
Rascal Who Has Disappeared.

BosToN, July 7.-Orson O. Bowen, of
the real estate firm of Bowen 6 Morrell,
258 Washington street, put razor, re-
volver and few other articles into
hand bag, and after telling his wife that
he had made himself liable to imprisen-
ment in the state prison, left his house
and has not been heard from since.
Since then half dozen notes, with
forged signatures, have turned up. 1t is
believed many more are in existence.
His partner, Edward J. Morrell of Port
land, Me-, was induced to join Bowen
through an advertisement, and was to
receive half the commissions of the
firm. Morrell has not received cent as
his share, Bowen telling him that he had
received no money for sales. Bowen
mortgaged his household furniture to
six persons. Last Tuesday his furniture
was removed from his residence in
Charlestown in wagon. Mrs. Bowen
and her son were left with no household
goods. They were given shelter by a
friend until Mrs. Bowenw was well enough
to support herself and child. Bowen is
said to have been in trouble once before
for which he was in Jail until he made a
satisfactory agreement with his victim.

Delegate Uses the Fighting in Paris az an
Argument for the Army Bill.
BERxIN, July 7.-When the new Reich
stag met today for the first time for the
consideration of regular parliam entary
business, nearly all the 397 members
were in their places, for it was known
that the government would at once in
troduce the amended army bill. Imme-
diately after the formal opening of the
House, Chancellor Won Caprivi assembled
the tribune, and in a long speech intro
duced the amended measure. He stated
that the present form of the bill repre-
sented the minimum that the govern
ment would accept in men or money.
The governments demands were the
lowest possible consistent with the safety
of the empire. The previous bill had
been before Parliament and the country
for nine months and everybody under
stood what the government wanted. 1t
was, however, needless to repeat the
arguments that had heretofore been adj
vanced in favor of the measure.
The keynote of the speech was that
foreign countries, not knowing intimate
ly the German character, had been led
to believe that Germany had lost conf
dence in herself, and that the countries
composing the German empire were no
longer united. This the Chancellor de-
clared was an erroneous impression.
which ought to be quickly dispelled BY
the speedy adoption of the new bill. In
the course of the speech the Chancellor
referred to the action of Russia in in
creasing the peace footing of her army
by 81, 900 men since 1889, and said she
had not yet exhausted her resources.
Germany, he declared, must increase
her peace footing if her voice was to
continue to have weight in the European
areopagus. The assertion made by the
opposition that Germany did not have
sufficient men to answer the call for re-
cruits was disproved by the fact that 90
900 serviceable men had not been re-
cruited.
Referring to the expense that would
be entailed by the granting of the gov
ernment's demands, Chancellor Won Ca
priv said that the new taxes that must
! necessarily be levied would be borne on
strong shoulders. These taxes would
not touch the middle classes or the agri-
| cultural population. He could not now,
he added, definitely state the tax plan,
but it was the governments intention to
again introduce the old financial propos-
| ais, especially the one providing for
tax on 5Bourse transactions.
The chancellor brify recapitulatedg gthe
l leading features Of the old measure. Ac-
