Until the eighth the Midshipmen were

one run came in. Aided by two errors they
got three men home in the ninth. Score:

way systems, have just published an
exhaustive work on their findings
which is attracting much attention in
the German press.

many striking comparisons Of the
American and Prussian railways, often
TO the disadvantage Of the former. They
quote official statistics showing that
per million passengers carried the
American roads killed six times and
wounded twenty-nine times as many
