RAILROAD TELEPHONES.
Using Them in France Instead of

In France the management OF some OF the
railroad companies think of replacing the tee-
graph by he telephone, even for the trans
mission of important orders. There are some
railroads with light traffic where the telephone
is already used, bat the entire substitution of
The telephone would be difficult. The single
iron conductors used for telegraph would not be
suitable, and it would be necessary to establish
special tee phone lines with double wires On
the Yincenues railroad, in the stations between
Paris BaStie and La NareDne, which are at
distance of about one mile, at signal by tele-
graph the telegraph wires are connected with
The telephone Instruments, aud are thus
made available for an extended tele-
phonlc intercourse. The arrangement
gives excellent results. The Northern
Railroad of France has established on
trial telephone stations on the open road along
some of It's main lines, through which assist
ance can be summoned from the stations IN
case of accident. The stations are equipped
with telephone receivers. Portable telephone
instTumets are in use on some small french
roads. The large Australian roads use field
telephone instruments of the Gattinger system.
which In few minutes can be connected with
the telegraph wires at any point, their use not

Under favorable conditions conversation Is
possible at a distance OF thrty-one miles.
In England telephone connection between
block signal stations is common. On the seven
large French railroads there were in use In
