system is still more complete for 1t
not only tells of a break in the rail,
bridge down or another train on the
track, but it has an indicator which
tells just how far away the obstruc-
ton is and as the train approaches,
the indicator shows the engineer that
he is getting nearer and nearer SO
that the man in the cab must almost
deliberately commit suicide to let the
signal go unheeded.
The system seems to be about ev-
erything that can be desired and no
one but an insane person would ig-
more the warnings especially as the
Indicator does more than merely tell
that there is danger ahead some
where, but it tells when the engine
is actually upon it. Any man who
would not stop before he actually
gets to it, must certainly be crazy If
the system can be perfected and If it
proves as practical in actual use on
long stretch of road as it does on
the few miles where the tests are be-
ing made, the inventor not only has
his fortune assured, but he will be
the means of saving thousands of
lives every year.

TO PREVENT RAILROAD ACCI-
DENTS.

Commenting upon the new safet'
device now being tested on Staten Is
land, accounts of which have fre
quently appeared in the NEWS, th
Newark Evening News says:
Another safety appliance has
been invented for use on rail-
roads, and is now being tested
on q short stretch of track on
Staten Island II is an electri
cal device which operates an in
dieator and shows the engineer
of each locomotive If another
train is on the track, how far it
is distant and in which direction
it is( moving. 1t also operates
signal lights in the cab, rings
bells and whistles and gives
warning Of any defects in the
track or any obstacles of impor
tance. This seems like highly
valuable invention, but it lacks
one thing. 1t does not compel
the engineer to pay attention to
the signals. This is not said
with any desire to impugn the
skill or intelligence of engineers
generally, nor is it made joking
ly The cause of most of the
: ilroad accidents of the past
ar or two has been the failure
Dr the responsible men to obey
iigh tgnals. The Southern Rail-
: E a&ay accident, the Washington
vel accident and the accident near
y ~ Kansas City were all caused by
Ia disobeying signals. At Mem
phis, on Sunday last, four men
were killed and five injured,
and in New Mexico, on the same
day, five were killed and eight
injured, in both cases because
the signals were disregarded.
The fearful loss of human life
in the United States, through
railroad accidents, is not be-
cause of any lack of immensely
valuable and trustworthy safety
devices, but because so many of
the railroad employees pay little
or no attention to the signals"
The News misses an importan
feat,,re In the new device, however IL
that the danger signal is given in the
engine cab directly in front OF tho
enefneer where no fog or smoke car
obscure it and where no towermaE
- eperator can make mistake. More

After a half hours introspection, he

envelope. and taking out a hastily

the following:

diplomacy to set things straight whel

The generally astute lawyer foun
his mind for once, at least, in a mis-

apprehensions. He returned the lie

profound reverie.
Presently came the last call fC
