SUSPENDING PENSIONS.

Some months ago the Pension Bureau
conceived the bright idea of suspending
certain class of pensions during inquiry
as to the right of the pensioner to the pen
sion rate be was receiving. Under this
Iule a mum Der of old soldiers were cut off
who had no other means OF living. Presi-
dent Cleveland, who has a tight grip in all
the branches If the executive Office 50 far
as the distribution of patronage is con-
cerned. let the Secretary of the Interior
have his own way in dealing with the old
soldiers. 1t is now said that Hoke Smith
has become convinced that suspending a
pensioner during an inquiry IS to his right
to a pension is notj just TO the old older. 1t
has occurred to MIR. Smith that it would be
more in cOnsOnance with criminal practice
TO try an accused person before proceeding
TO hang him. In future, inquiry viii pre-
cede suspension. In view of the fact n o
complaint has been made concerning the
payments of hundreds of millions of dol
lars in the form of interest on bonds in eX-
cess of what would have been due had
bonds been paid in coin. as the law
directed, there has been loud outcry over
the distribution of public money to the
men whose courage aud endurance saved
the Union and thus gave value to the bonds
issued during the war.

enterprise. In these matters patience is
virtue under severe discipline. The route
to the Sandwich Islands has been sur
veyed aud shown to be as suitable as any
ocean bed. We could even go further
with the cable and connect it with the
Orient. But at all events it must be
stretched between California and Hawaii,
where our Interests are paramount. A
Government subsidy need not endure for
ever. 1t could be Withdrawn when the

The morning call., 1893-09-02
RAILWAY SIGNALING.

Among the applica tions Of electricity
now coming into use is one of great impor-
tauce in railway travel from two points of
view-safety and labOr-savDg. Automatic
eectro-pn eumatic signals are being intro
duced on the Pennsylvania main lines be-
tween Pittsburg, PHILADELPHIA and New
York. aud the prediction may be veDtured
that long time will elapse ere the method
is in vogue generally on passenger linea.
BY this system train in moving over the
rails does its own signaling. At a part of
the track an electric current comes into
operation as the locomotive passes over it,
and the signal arms are automatically
raised and remain 10 position until the
train goes out of the lock. No assistance
whatever is nece ssary from hand-labor,
and in the event of arrangement there is
instantan eous communication with the
power house to correct the fault. The
system is serviceabe in showing not only
one but two blocks clear. 1t is, in short.
one of those improvements which railway
companies find Immediately profitable.
The only outlay is in providing the ap-
paratus and supplying electricity. and
there must be decided economy by dis
pensing with signal towers and sigualmen.
In the matter of safety the gain is deci-
slve. There is no danger OF collision or of
being switched into jeopardy by signal
man falling asleep at his post. as has often
happened owing to excessive hours of duty.
AS long as the engineer and fireman are
observant the risk 10 train from an error
in signaling is nil. This is great triumph
of scen tific invention. and must be CRATE
fully hailed by railroad managers, iusur-
ance companies and, not least, the ublic.
